So who remembers this? After being photographed all over LA at a (faux gasp) 180 lbs. JANET JACKSON did some damage control and while she went underground, her pubs claimed her weight gain was for a Rueben Cannon produced flick that never came to fruition.Then Ms. Jackson surface some three months later, a svelte belly baring 120 lbs. just in time for the release of a new album. She talked about diet, excercise and how discipline was key.
And then there was this cover...Remember? Chick was still at it, letting the world know she still looked fly, complete with her wash-board abs.
And now there's this...Ms. Jackson is in Italy for Fashion Week, and she is noticably thicker. 
Now, don't get me wrong. I AM IN NO WAY SAYING there is a damn thing wrong with how she looks, chick is still fly. However, and I've said this for years, you gotta be careful about what you let the press in on, especially when it comes to weight.
The average yo-yo dieter will ride that wave their entire life. And while I'm sure it's tough to take that ride under public scrutiny (just ask Kirstie Alley), it's also kinda dumb to go talkin' to the press about weight loss. Why?
Cause then you got a whole lot more folks in your business when you inevitably gain some, if not all of it back.
