Janet recently sat down with Wonderland magazine, and admitted that she often forgets her brother is gone and expects him to call her.

“It gets sad sometimes because, I don’t know, you think your phone is going to ring and you hear that voice calling your name,” she said. “But, yeah, life goes on and everybody grieves differently. And every day is different. Some days it’s much easier than others.”

The singer says that Michael’s death made her realize she needed to make changes in her life. “A lot of people in this industry have a lot of ‘yes’ people. That I can tell you I do not have. A lot has changed in my life this year, a lot of changes, I think I’m kind of heading in a different direction for sure,” she added.

One direction Janet could be moving in is film. While Miss Jackson has starred in a few projects, she hasn’t done an action flick yet. She hopes that will soon change. “There was a time when I met with the Wachowski brothers to do The Matrix, a long time ago but there were scheduling conflicts,” she said. “I want to kick somebody’s ass. Anybody’s, as long as I get to kick somebody’s ass. Kick a new hole in their butt. Rip ‘em a new butthole, I’d love to do that.”

“I thought the Michael Jackson tribute was fantastic and I thought Usher was doing a magnificent job,” Jay-Z told Access Hollywood.

“I think he’s one of the guys that’s in line to, you know, fill those huge shoes. I don’t wanna put that pressure on him, but I think he’s one of the guys that’s in line to do that.”

According to MTV.com, not only will Pop icon Janet Jackson feature on the soon-to-be-released ‘We Are The World’ remake, she will be singing the same part her late brother, the King of Pop Michael Jackson, sang on the original 25 years ago:

“She’s doing Michael’s part in the middle the same part Michael did,” Jones told the press. “She’s representing Michael.”

Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones were quick to point out that if Jackson were still alive, he’d want to be just as involved with the song as he was 25 years ago, though maybe in a different role. “I know it’s hard to believe, but if Michael were, alive he’d stand behind the scenes,” Richie said.

A 3-D tribute to the late Michael Jackson was a highlight of this year’s Grammys. Singers such as Jennifer Hudson, Smoky Robinson and Usher paid tribute to the King of Pop.

HB’s Top 6 Grammy predictions

On Sunday at the Grammys, viewers will get a chance to see never-before-seen footage of Michael Jackson, during a tribute to the late great King Of Pop.

Some of the clip will feature material from the documentary This Is It, but the majority will be a 3-D video that MJ shot for “Earth Song,” a track off his 1995 album, HIStory. The show will also feature performances in honor of MJ by Jennifer Hudson, Usher and more.

But there’s one singer that wasn’t chosen to contribute. Here’s what Omarion had to say about being snubbed:

“If I’m not a part of that, then that’s not… I’m not gonna say it’s wack, but I’m just saying, everyone knows what I do, so if you gon’ have an MJ tribute… I take that back because Stevie [Wonder] did an MJ tribute. Everyone loved Michael. I’m not gon’ say that. I’m just meaning the performance [aspect]. How you gon’ have a Michael tribute without the playboy? [Laughs].

That’s my only thing, and I mean this in the humblest and the most competitive way. I’m competitive — that’s what the game is about. Especially after Mike passed away, I feel like the stage, it’s more important now. It’s a responsibility to me when I hit the stage to not play with it. If you walk back and forth that’s cool, too. If that’s how you entertain, that’s cool, but for the performances and for the dances and for the people that look up to Michael in the fashion I look up to Michael? I hope they bring it. Because if they don’t, then I will.”

Omarion To Replace “Best Dance Crew” Judge

Last we heard, a variety show – complete with monologues, skits, comedy sketches, and musical performances – was strictly for entertainment. What’s entertaining about a funeral?

Billie J. Green, the former head of the NAACP’s Beverly Hills branch, has written a letter blasting the national president Ben Jealous for allowing Michael Jackson’s televised memorial service to be nominated for the organization’s Image Award as a variety show.

He wrote:

“Even though entertainers did perform, it was still a memorial service/funeral to honor this young man.

The NAACP’s Image Awards were created to honor people who portrayed positive images of African-Americans in the entertainment industry. This show has always been a legitimate awards presentation. Unfortunately, this recent nomination of Michael Jackson’s memorial service/funeral has resulted in the ridicule of the Image Awards as a legitimate awards show. This nomination is an embarrassment to the past and present members of the NAACP and the African-American community as a whole.

As someone who has worked closely with the NAACP to create jobs and positive images in the entertainment industry, I am truly ashamed of this recent nomination. Please see below for some additional information that I have provided for your perusal.

Thank you for your time. I hope that you can do something to correct this situation.”

Michael Jackson loved Christmas and his sister Janet is on a mission to keep the holiday spirit alive for his children. She’s reportedly spending thousands on a Christmas celebration for Prince, Paris and Blanket. Here’s what contactmusic.com found out:

“It was to be a quiet, somber holiday this year but Janet has stepped in to make it just like Michael did – fun. Michael loved Christmas. He was like a big kid and now Janet has taken that on. She must have spent thousands on trees, decorations and the kind of toys Michael would have love to be fooling around with on Christmas morning.”

The King Of Pop died this year on June 25th.

Check out Omarion’s “Hoodie” music video, which he dedicated to the memory of the King of Pop Michael Jackson. We definitely see the inspiration from “Bad” and “Beat It” in this video even though the dancing in it wasn’t really MJ. But we give the guy an “A” for effort.
