The two R&B/Pop singers? sparked controversy when Justin Timberlake tore off part of Janet Jackson’s outfit that exposed her pierced breast during their half-time performance and Janet admits she wants to discuss what happened with the ‘SexyBack’ star. While on the Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday (Sept. 26), Janet said: “We haven’t spoken but I consider him a friend, and I’m very loyal, and friendship is very important to me. He has reached out to speak with me. Like I said, friendship is very important to me – and certain things you just don’t do to friends. In my own time, I’ll give him a call.” Janet still has a bone to pick with Justin for not sticking up for her after the incident which was condemned across the US. However, the 40-year-old singer admits she is still amazed the accident got so much attention. She explained: “Many more important things were going on in the world. And the focus was on my breast? That didn’t make any sense to me.” Janet’s new album, 20 Y.O. hits stores today (Sept. 26). The five part tale includes an intro, three interludes and the outro. Janet manages to squeeze in 11 additional cuts, like “Get It Out Me,” “Show Me” and “Do It 2 Me.” The special edition boasts a bonus DVD with dance auditions, in-the-studio material and the making of the “Call on Me” video.
