"Exhaustion"

Getting old sucks sometimes!

Janet Jackson‘s reps refuse to comment on the reason why the diva was briefly hospitalized in Montreal on Monday, resulting in the cancellation of her concert that evening.

But, leave it to an ‘insider’ to yap!

Someone close to her pukey boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri, says, “A 42-year-old body can’t handle what a 22-year-old body can. I can tell you that she’s definitely tired. It was probably exhaustion. She is doing back-to-back, three-hour shows, and her body isn’t the same as it used to be.”

Maybe Madonna can give Janet some tips.

Sadly, we also feel like Janet is trying to find an “out” for her tour.

Many arenas and shows are barely half full, and a show of her scale costs A LOT of money to transport across the country and put on.

Is she being pressured by LiveNation to pull the plug? Does she not want to perform to almost empty arenas???

What gives??
