You remember back in the day when they use to say Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson were the same person, or Michael and LeToya, well when I saw this picture of Janet Jackson I thought I saw a ghost. I never understood the rumor, they looked like brother and sister to me, but in this picture it’s almost like MJ is looking at us. During Janet’s American Idol performance she sounded just like him, too, and now this picture…(gives me the chills).

Janet Jackson was on the set of  “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf“, a new project by Tyler Perry. (Somebody, anybody, sing a black girl song!)  The cast includes  Janet Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Jurnee Smollett, Loretta Divine, Phylicia Rashad, Kimberly Elise, Kerry Washington, Macy Gray and Aniko Noni Rose. (I can’t wait to see this film.)

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer has come under fire after being featured in a new German book of fashion, made up to look like a black woman.  World famous designer Karl Lagerfeld shot the photos two years ago but the book is just now being released.  I’m all for artistic expression but there are so many black models who could have done the job just as well if not better.  So do you find this photo offensive or not? Does Being married to a black man give her more lead way than most white models? (Oh wait that’s Heidi Klum)
