Taken from Star Magazine: If Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri tie the knot, they may have very different plans for the nuptials. “She wants it to be private and intimate,” a source tells Star magazine. On the other hand, “Dupri lives grand. He probably wants the circus-like fanfare that goes along with marrying a celebrity like Janet.”

Fox News reports that whilst Janet is finishing up her album in Atlanta with Dallas Austin, she is keeping a careful eye on the developments surrounding brother Michael’s arrest and subsequent bail. She is reportedly making repeated phone calls to her superstar brother to check on his progress whilst the rest of the family fly to be at Michael’s side.

{{popup janetjermaine-usherbig.jpg At Usher’s 25th Birthday 406×599}}The Chicago Sun Times reports that Janet and Jermaine may be tying the knot sooner than we think. Despite Janet insisting in numerous interviews that she thinks marriage isn’t for her, the newspaper says that Jermaine has impressed the entire Jackson family, including brother Michael.

The newspaper also says its source is a member of the Jackson family themselves: “‘I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t do it over Christmas — even Thanksgiving.”
