My idol Janet Jackson graces the August 2010 cover of Essence Magazine. I think she has the best smile on the planet!! She will be hitting the stage in New Orleans this Friday at the Essence Music Festival. Too bad I can’t make it, but I know she is going to rock the house!

“When I walked out there and disrobed, I felt like a queen. I felt like the world was mine. Like there was this power just emanating from my person. Like there was nothing I couldn’t do.”
