Janet Jackson Converts to Islam (To Tone Down Live Shows)
Kathmandu Post ^ | 9/19

Posted on 09/20/2015 11:18:31 AM PDT by nickcarraway

Singer Janet Jackson has become a Muslim following her marriage to Wissam Al Mana in 2012 and has toned down her raunchy costumes and dance moves following conversion.

The 49-year-old who married Muslim billionaire Wissam Al Mana, 40, in 2012 is reportedly taking the religion so seriously that she has even toned down her raunchy costumes and dance moves for her comeback tour.

"She feels like she has found a home with her new religion and has told members of her family, who completely respect her choice," a source told The Sun.

"She has spent a great deal of time studying the religion and its followers. The days of raunchy dance moves and sexual lyrics are long gone for Janet,” the source said

The newspaper reports that Janet even ends her “Unbreakable” world tour shows with "Insha Allah" which means "Allah willing".

Meanwhile, Jackson has pulled out of the iHeartRadio Music Festival this weekend.

This writer begs to differ:

He does point out that the Christian faith is growing bigtime in Africa and in Asia, such as in China, India, etc.

He is very good.

Well I’m thinking there will be less chance of a wardrobe malfunction given the new dress code.

Lose your bra, lose your head.

HA HA, good advice over at that site “If you must marry for money at least try and avoid marrying an Arab Muslim billionaire.”

The churches growing the most are those that are much more conservative, Catholic, Anglican, and Evangelical.

Yet with more attacks on Christians, it will plant the seeds for new believers.

I said Western Man. I’m not concerned with Asians or Africans and their form of Christianity. I care about the West. One of the tragedies of Western Christian churches is their obsession with cosmopolitanism coupled with egalitarianism which results in their losing any meaning. Imagine the Church in the 16th century performing “Gay Marriages.” Western Christianity is rapidly becoming bankrupt.

So another pop tart airhead ditz goes on spiritual journey.

Big whoop.

Maybe she’ll get a wakeup like Pam Grier did.

Yes, new believers-in Islam. Just watch. In ten years half the United States will be Muslim and three quarters of Europe.

She’s 49, hopefully too old to make little Moslems.

She’d better be careful. She’s almost showing ankle.

Hopefully, they’ll remember that Jesus came to bring a sword, not peace, and they’ll therefore take it upon themselves to wipe out Boko Haram, Al Shabaab and the like.

You'd think he could find someone closer to his age, less mileage, ...

Rita Hayworth, she's not. Maybe Stephen King will write a story that includes a Janet Jackson poster as a plot device.

(Then again, haven't read King for decades, so maybe he has.)

YES! Then I will start hearing more sermons from African pastors on WAVA (a DC-area Christian radio station).
