Ted, Do you honestly think that Jackson and Timberlake would be that stupid? Take a chance and risk their careers.

Do you honestly believe this incident has hurt their careers?


Yes, just as Britney's BS is hurting hers. People's careers do get shut down because of their behavior. And both Jackson and Timberlake know that. Both are professionals. Neither have acted out in public previously like some celebrities do. I think the incident yesterday was a mistake but, of course, few will give them the benefit of the doubt.

What's the worst that could happen to them?

They will make less money.

They'll be fined by the FCC and maybe sued by networks and producers, but that's about it. Meanwhile, MTV is milking the publicity for what it's worth, and Janet's new album is going to be released on Monday. Coincidence?

Now, you think she's doing it to push her knew CD through negative publicity.....like all the negative publicity around her bro isn't enough. Sorry, guy, I'm not that cynical.
