Janet Jackson on Kamala Harris race comments, ‘she extends her sincerest apologies’

Janet Jackson apologised for her claims about Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ race.

In a statement obtained by People from Jackson, on Sunday, the All For You songstress claimed her comments on Harris’ racial identity were “based on misinformation.”

“She extends her sincerest apologies for any confusion caused and reaffirms her respect for Harris’ dual heritage as both Black and Indian,” the statement read.

“Janet remains committed to fostering unity, inclusion, and understanding and is grateful for the opportunity to clarify her stance,” the statement continued.

“She will continue to use her platform to support leaders who represent diversity and progress.”

Jackson, 58, came under fire for doubting Harris’ race in an interview with the Guardian aired on Saturday.

When asked about Americans’ support for the first Black female presidential nominee, Jackson stated of Harris, “She’s not black. That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian.”

“Her father’s white. That’s what I was told. I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days. I was told that they discovered her father was white.”

Harris is a daughter to both immigrants, with her father being born in Jamaica and her mother in India.

Perry Farrell apologised to Dave Navarro following his onstage outburst at Jane’s Addiction tour conert

Perry Farrell is pursuing medical treatment following a dramatic onstage outburst at a Jane’s Addiction concert, which culminated in the cancellation of the remainder of the band’s tour.

On the night of September 13, the rock band’s reunion tour ended abruptly after Farrell threw a punch at guitarist Dave Navarro.

Both musicians released statements addressing the situation in the aftermath of the incident.

In a recent Instagram post, Farrell’s wife, Etty Lau Farrell, shared that her husband has scheduled appointments with an otolaryngologist and a neurologist.

“Like attracts like. Kindness attracts kindness. As you know, Perry is the gentlest of souls. We are just as astonished by his physical outburst as you are, but please understand that he must have been pushed to his absolute limit. To that end, we apologize,” she wrote, expressing remorse for his behavior.

Etty added, “Perry already has appointments lined up with specialists. If you know and love him, you understand there’s no need to address the false narratives.”

She also expressed gratitude to fans for their support and concern, assuring them, “He will recover. He will be happy again. He will once again be able to share his music, vision, and artistry—unbridled.”

This is Etty’s second statement since the incident in Boston.

Earlier, she explained that Farrell’s outburst stemmed from frustration with the stage volume, which he felt was drowning out his voice.

“Perry had been suffering from tinnitus and a sore throat every night. When audience members in the front row started complaining and cursing at him about the loudness, he lost it,” she shared.

Taylor Swift enchanted the Kansas City Chiefs by her VMA speech.

Travis Kelce’s team wrote on X, “Happiness. Fun. Magic,” on Sunday, September 22, with a picture of Kelce, arriving ahead of his game against the Atlanta Falcons.

The 34-year-old sported black dress pants, a white shirt and black tie with a black coat, in the picture.

This caption was a shoutout to Anti-hero hitmaker’s recent mention of Kelce in her VMAs acceptance speech.

“The thing is that this video seems very sad when you watch, it but it actually was, like, the most fun video to make,” Swift said when she was awarded the Video of the Year award for Fortnight from her newest album Tortured Poets Department.

“Something that I’ll always remember is when I would finish a take and I’d say cut and we’d be done with that take, I would always just hear someone cheering ‘woo’ from across the studio where we were shooting it, and that one person was my boyfriend, Travis,” she recalled.

She continued, “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic, so I wanna thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that.”

The couple who began dating last summer, have been making headlines with their public appearances.

The Eras Tour performer, who’s currently on break after wrapping up the European leg of the tour, has been spending time with beau.

As a source told Us Weekly, they have been “loving every minute together.”

Jennifer Lopez’s friends ‘disgusted’ by Ben Affleck: Source

Jennifer Lopez’s friends are not happy with Ben Affleck right now and have been offering their shoulders to the singer to cry on.

A source spilled to In Touch, “All of JLo’s friends are disgusted by Ben right now, as they think the Argo actor handled their divorce “poorly”.

Jennifer’s pal Leah Remini also made amends with the singer-actress after the split from Ben.

The source told the outlet, “Leah is an extremely tough character. She’s had to be after all the stress she’s endured at the hands of Scientology. Her no-nonsense, don’t take any crap kind of attitude is music to JLo’s ears right now.”

“Because she spent so many months being tortured by Ben over the prospect of a potential reunion,” noted an insider.

JLo’s marriage to Ben “pretty much ruined Leah and Marry Me star’s friendship the last couple of years”.

However, the source revealed that Leah and Jennifer “are thick as thieves again” amid the divorce.

“They’re back on great terms again and closer than ever and she’s now assumed being JLo’s de facto divorce coach,” said an insider.

The source further said, “Jennifer is more than happy to take it on and give her all the support she needs.”

Not only JLo, but Leah also broke up with her husband Angelo Pagán after 21 years of marriage.

Another insider opened up that both actresses have been able to support each other at this tough time.

“Jennifer wanted her friend’s support. However, Leah saw the writing on the wall and straight out told her marrying Ben was a bad idea,” explained the source.

The source added, “Ironically, the timing couldn’t have been better. Now they have each other to lean on.”
