Janet in US Magazine
May 26, 2006 – 8:16 amPosted Under: celebs, magazines
This is Janet. I’m sure you all remember photos floating around the net of a chunkier version of her. She said she packed on pounds for a movie role. Crazy. I guess there isn’t that much wannabe actress in me that I’d willingly gain extra poundage. Anyway, she lost 60 pounds in 4 months. Not sure how safe that is, but I guess it is, she had a nutrionist and a trainer and at 150 I’m still trying to slim down 20 pounds so more power to her. I wonder if at 130 I’ll look anything like that.
Note: I get lots of information on jobs, casting and extra gigs, so, to stay abreast on that and fashion and celeb news join my discussion group at princessdominique-subscribe@yahoogroups.com. I get way too many to post them on the blog or to my mailing list. Thanks!

I’m 9 lbs away from 130, and my tummy isn’t nearly that flat!
Go Janet!

Janet is … Whoa!
Even as a older woman that lady is STILL HOT! I’m sure a lot of money helped her lose some of that weight.
Have a great Memorial Day weekend. Holla!

If you eat healthy and lead an active lifestyle, who cares what the scale says?
By Brea on May 26, 2006
TJ yeah she makes 40 look fav.
Chris money definitely helps.
Brea I’m not active so I’ve had to rely on scale to put me in a ballpark range or rather put me at a number where I was comfortable. Maybe I’ll take up mountain climbing.

Shoooooot… I don’t care how unhealthy it is. I wanna look like that myself. I’d definitely go through the trouble of eating whatever for a movie role, cuz you get paid to eat. I’d never let the role get away from me like she did.

yeah she looks good and I’m glad she is at a healthy weight, but I don’t think she gained weight for any movie role — I think she was just HUNGRY. LOL
By Michele on May 26, 2006
LP yeah I feel you. I couldn’t do it though. It’s EASY to gain but HARD to lose!
Michele that was looming in the back of my mind. I don’t think this is the first time she’s done the weight thing.
By Princess Dominique on May 26, 2006
Wow…Janet knows how to work it. Hard to believe she was 180 just four months ago. Hopefully she’s not doing harm to her body.

Dang! Janet has worked 40 over, under & back around again. That must’ve been one heck of a role! Heard it went to Mariah Carey. Hmph.
Adding on 60-80lbs AND then losing the role to MiMi?? I she worked off more than those pounds. 
By Jayy on May 26, 2006
I must be nice to have the kinda money where you can drop 60 lbs in 4 mos!
I don’t really believe that’s why she gained all of that weight either. From what I heard, this is not the first or even the 2nd time she gained and lost alot of weight like that.

I’ve lost 30 pounds since January … the first 10 was the easiest, in the first week. I gotta find out what her secret is — I need to drop another twenty or so, but I can’t afford a personal trainer. Guess I’ll have to continue to rought it with that old standby: “will power.”
By Malnurtured Snay on May 27, 2006
She always had a great body, but I am doubtfull about the 60lbs in 4mths. Can’t be a healthy thing to do. I won’t be surprised if she didn’t do some lipo in the process. Wish I had the metabolism like she did.
By Campfyah on May 27, 2006
She looks great I’m not to sure that’s healthy though to loose so much weight.
By char on May 27, 2006
Janet better come out and tell us the truth about how she lost all that weight, because I don’t believe she whipped that stomach back into shape in just 4 months. I think she had a new medical procedure performed.
By Aziza on May 27, 2006
i’m trying to get down to the 130s too. i have about 20 pounds to go but i am going to get it off this summer.
By sweetlime on May 27, 2006
wow janet looks great…i am sure she could have done it naturally, and stars have all kinds of secrets on how to lose weight fast.
i am not believing the whole movie role though.
By k on May 27, 2006
Girl now you know I been a huffin and puffin to lose some poundage and this chick got the nerves to say she lost 60lbs in 4 months. Hmpf! Heiffa make me sick! Her butt didn’t eat she ain’t foolin me! And come to think about it she never showed any ounce of skin while she was chubby and now I’m thinking that maybe it was a fat suit under all those sweats she was wearing. Kinda like a big ole publicity stunt so we can all be like ooh look at J, she bad!
And um for the record heiffa looks HAWT!!!
By bunny on May 28, 2006
well i am 130 and i want to be 120 and i don’t look anything like that. i think the personal trainer, dietician, and nutritionist helps. if we had someone to push us to work out, cook for us, and tell us the right things to eat, we’d all look like that i’m sure!
but when i’ve got 10 bazillion things to do and no personal trainer, i admit, i stop at micky dees for a quick bite!!
By melyssa on May 28, 2006
Photoshop yall. Aint nobody that flawless. Yall men need to stop buying into that especially and wanting your women to look like that.
By daflirt on May 29, 2006
I think we as a society is too obessed with looks. I read internet postings about Janet’s weight gain. I just thought she was happy and in love. Yall, know how love can make ya fat. LOL.
Anyway, she looks good. I just wonder about the measures she went to get that way. I mean the maintenance is the key, nutritionist or trainer, a person still has to do some work.
The drastic measures folks especially in entertainment shows how vain we can be. Be healthy, happy and f what images they keep putting out there to make money.
If could lose 15 pounds and keep it off I would be fine. I don’t want to be fat or skinny just a nice managable weight that is healthy.
By shai on May 31, 2006
I think she did it healthier this go around by limiting her carlorie intake and exercising…when before she was using weightloss drugs…money can buy a lot…like someone to push you out of bed even when you don’t want to…I read the article earlier this week. I’m glad JD showed her love regardless of what size she was.
