Janet's Chipped Tooth Derails Milwaukee Concert

[AmericanRockStar]

Janet Jackson wasn't smiling Wednesday (July 18), and neither were her Milwaukee fans. The singer reportedly canceled her concert there just hours before showtime after undergoing emergency dental work.

Jackson chipped a tooth and had to have an emergency root canal, according to Milwaukee TV station WTMJ. A Bradley Center spokesperson told the TV station that the accident occurred while Jackson and her crew were setting up the show Wednesday afternoon.

Promoters told fans — some of whom had already arrived at the venue for the show — to hang on to their tickets, as the show may be rescheduled. A new date hasn't been announced, and no information was available at press time regarding Jackson's Friday show at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio.

Jackson kicked off her All for You tour on July 7 in Portland, Oregon, after having to cancel the original opener two days earlier in Vancouver, British Columbia, when a piece of her set failed to arrive in time.

Either that Reporter is a terrible writer, or that story isn't true.

Something's going on.

[J.]

Umm the story is true Steph.(im not attacking you so..).I think she must have fell or something.

[AmericanRockStar]

I got this story from MTV.com a.k.a. the most reliable source on the planet. Go look for yourself, "steph" if you think I'm telling a lie.:rolleyes:

[stephany]

I didn't say you were lying.

I said the reporter was a Bad Writer. The report didn't answer the 5 W's of reporting (who, what, where, how, when).

He left too much unsaid. That makes him a bad writer, or else they are hiding something.

If Janet is falling and breaking a tooth... something's going on.

[VenConmigo]

Oh that sucks. I hope Janet is alright.

[J.]

O ok.Heres another report about it

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is now reporting that Janet's emergency dental surgery was the result of an injury that occurred "sometime this afternoon while they were setting up the show".



I really think she may have fell or something now.

[christinasSANTAboy]

I thought it sounded fishy from the beginning, but I guess it MUST be true if MTV says it. :rolleyes:

[stephany]

I believe it's true. BUT --

HOW did she fall and break her tooth?

HOW does a broken tooth lead to a root canal?

If she's falling down, WHY didn't she break her fall - what prevented her from putting her hands up to protect herself like most SOBER people do?

The story is just too incomplete.

[christinasSANTAboy]

OK, Well I guess you win this one.

Yah wouldn't you put your hands in front of your face to prevent your fall?

We are missing some information here.

[stephany]

I'll venture a guess. This is not a rumor, it is just a "profiler guess" in order of what I personaly think MIGHT have happened.

Either:

1) She got into a physical fight with someone (maybe her ex husband).


2) Janet mentioned that she was NOT really ready to go on tour and that she wanted another month off. I think she might have went back on tour too soon against her better judgement.


3) Michael has something to do with it. There is something evil brewing there. I can see it in her eyes when she talks about him.


4) Substance abuse.


Only time will tell. I'm not buying the broken tooth/root canal story.

[jakecaluvr]

i had to get a root canal foir hitting my tooth too hard, or rather being hit my brothers hand too hard! but it was like two years later, maybe they realized it might come to that and wanted to fix it right away, because it is noticable within a few weeks ( the discoloring that is) so...

[jakecaluvr]

who knows how it happened, she may just have gotten ff balance and fell, and it ahppened so quickly that she couldnt put her hands up in time ... who knows?! lool at stephany and charlie

[stephany]

Janet is a professional dancer. Balance is second nature to her.

You don't just "fall".

[jakecaluvr]

it happens to the best of them sometimes, ya know! shes not perfect! besides im not saying that that is what happened, its just a posibility. besides, do you really think michael had anything to do with this!!! lol better call johnny cochrain

[stephany]

With Michael you never know. Sibling rivialry is a very nasty business. I just get a strange vibe whenever she talks about him. It's subtle, but it's there.

Did she cancell just the one concert, or is she cancelling more?

Any other news reports, anyone?

[Keronothnetophobia]

Awwww...Poor Janet I hope everything turned out okay!! poor thing!!!
