Janet Jackson in “ruder than Slipknot” shocker!
Janet Jackson in “ruder than Slipknot” shocker!
Yup, while happy to accommodate the masked metal marauders, Woolworth’s have given Ms. Jackson’s All For You album the heave-ho for being too salacious.
The UK chain are worried about the kiddy-warping potential of songs like ‘Would You Mind’: “I just wanna touch you, tease you, lick you, please you/ Love you, hold you, make love to you/And I’m gonna kiss you, suck you, taste you, ride you, feel you deep inside me.”
Lust turns to anger on ‘Love Scene’, with Jackson telling ex-hubby Rene Elizado: “I’ll never be your lover/I’m gonna make you suffer/You stupid motherfucker.”

Unimpressed by the quality of her rhyming couplets, Woolie’s ordered that the opus be removed from their premises and not readmitted until the offending naughtiness is edited out.
Meanwhile, there was disappointment for Irish fans as it emerged that her European tour won’t be stopping off in Belfast or Dublin. The nearest the risqué diva will be getting to dear old Erin is the Manchester Evening News Arena (December 5th); London Earl’s Court (11th); and Birmingham NEC (17th).
