Janet's Mystery Man
A year after her split from longtime boyfriend Jermaine Dupri, the always-private Jackson steps out in London with a new man, Wissam Al Mana – a Qatari businessman who is nearly 10 years her junior. The pair heat things up with a romantic Italian getaway in Sardinia in July and a stylish trip to Paris Fashion Week in September.
A 'Color'-Coded Message
Jackson joins a star-studded cast that includes Whoopi Goldberg, Kerry Washington and Thandie Newton for Tyler Perry's adaptation of Ntozake Shange's 1975 poetic play, For Colored Girls. "Tyler's a very profound person and writer, and I think he's done a wonderful job," Jackson tells the Wall Street Journal of bringing the ambitious project to the big screen.
