August really seems to be my lucky month. Around this time last year I got the chance to meet Janet and on Saturday I won a competition on Radio 1 to meet Blue! You can hear it in Real Audio here and see the pics @ www.bluelads.com/onebigsunday.

Just a quick message to let you all know that Janet Love may lack on a few updates in the next week. It’s because I have got a really hectic week coming up – one which probably won’t allow me to even come close to a computer for the whole of it (probably a good thing!).
I’m in London for the next few days at a concert and doing some filming for a TV show and then I’m going up to Scotland for the rest of the week to the Edinburgh festival. I will be back on Friday – but if there is any urgent Janet news, I’ll get Kingsley to post it. Have a good week 🙂

Janet will attend BMI’s Urban Awards 2002 at Club Tropigala in Miami Beach on August 6 at 7 p.m. Other attendees include Sunshine Anderson, J-Swift, Jazze Pha, N.O.R.E., Big Tymers, Lil’ Wayne, Juvenile, the Neptunes, Rockwilder and Mario Winans.
From Launch.com:
Singer Janet Jackson is among the shareholders of the largest black-owned bank in the United States. Jackson, as well as former Los Angeles Lakers star Magic Johnson, are owners of shares in Boston Bank Of Commerce, which has just merged with Family Savings Bank, making the resulting entity the biggest banking institution owned by African-Americans.
Bank executives say the $460 million deal will result in more banks being built in black neighborhoods across the U.S., and is meant to inspire others. Boston Bank Of Commerce’s Kevin Cohee said, “This merger will serve as a model and source of strength for black businesses as we unite to share resources and expertise.”
After debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 at #65, Feel It Boy with Beenie Man featuring Janet jumps all the way to #42 in it’s second week!
