Disturbing Photo Shoots

Janet in New BlackBook

Janet Jackson is on the front cover and inside the April 2008 issue of BlackBook magazine in a pretty kinky and weird photoshoot by Matthew Rolston.

Carrying over the theme of "Discipline" from her latest album, Janet is disciplined on the cover by being trapped inside a cage wearing a skin-tight latex top by Polymorphe with Giuseppe Zanotti boots. Another disalarming shot shows Miss Jackson with her mouth wide open wearing a frightening S&M metal headgear.

We have come to expect nothing less than such over the top fierceness from Janet, and she does not disappoint.
