On July 14, Janet Jackson called Boston's JAM'N 94.5 for a phone interview with Bobby Blaze. Janet and Bobby chatted about the possible collaboration with Mariah as well as the "Tennessee" role that was originally intended for Jackson. When Blaze began to ridicule "Glitter," Janet defended Mariah's performance, expressing "I thought she was wonderful in 'Glitter'." Below are transcribed excerpts from the interview.
Bobby Blaze: Now, who'd you work with besides Nelly? 'Cause we all hear of these rumors about you and Mariah Carey. What's up with that joint?
Janet Jackson: Well, we're trying to make it happen. So, you'll have to stay tuned. I mean, trying to get everyone together, and schedules are crazy. So, it's something that we wanna do, and we're just trying to make it work.
BB: Is the film ("Tennessee") actually still coming out?
JJ: Mariah's doing it!
BB: Oh! She stole your film role girl! Damn!
JJ: (laughs) Mariah's doing it.
BB: No!
JJ: It's all good. I mean, they needed to go forward with it and they couldn't wait around for when I was gonna finish the project. We didn't know when we were gonna finish.
BB: Hey, maybe it's a blessing in disguise. It could be "Glitter" part two, girl. It could be a blessing in disguise!
JJ: That's wrong!
BB: No, I'm just sayin'! It could, things happen for a reason, Ms. Jackson.
JJ: You know what, I think people don't give Mariah enough credit. I thought she was wonderful in "Glitter," and I thought she just got a really bad rap. And that wasn't what I think they tried to make it out to be.
