Janet Jackson‘s professional life is in chaos. The pop singer might have spoken too soon, revealing her amusement over Justin Timberlake‘s downfall. Now, it looks as if his bad run of luck is affecting her career as well.

The sister of the late icon Michael Jackson’s career looks to be hitting a rocky patch, and it looks like she may have no one to blame but herself on this one. The pop singer’s run of bad luck comes just weeks after seemingly celebrating Justin Timberlake’s recent downfall, and it looks as if karma may be coming for her too.

The singer’s career is suddenly spiraling, and fans can’t help but wonder if she brought it all on herself. As previously reported, Janet recently confessed she’s still holding a grudge over the infamous Super Bowl Nipplegate fiasco. The Rhythm Nation hitmaker also seemingly implied that she enjoys watching Justin Timberlake’s life fall apart. Because of that, it looks like the universe might be clapping back, and Janet is feeling the heat.

“Not a Justin Timberlake fan, but Janet Jackson should have kept her thoughts to herself. By going public, saying she enjoyed his downfall, she put a bad vibe out, and now she is facing karmic payback,” one fan comments.

“Didn’t her mom teach her that if she can’t say something nice, say nothing at all?” asks another.

Janet Jackson is scheduled for her next Las Vegas residency, which will be from May 21 through May 31, with six shows. But to date, according to The Sun, ticket sales are dismal. With opening night just hours away, AXS ticket sales reveal the majority of the seats in the 5,000-person venue are still available. So far, ticket sales for the other dates appear even worse.

While Janet Jackson’s six-show Las Vegas residency isn’t flopping as hard as Justin Timberlake’s world tour, the slow ticket sales are still putting a noticeable dent in her wallet, and it’s not a good look for any future residencies.

Fans remember getting more than they bargained for during Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson’s Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show. The live broadcast, which aired on CBS from Houston on February 1, 2004, took a turn when Justin accidentally ripped off part of Janet’s costume, exposing her breast on national television and setting off the now-infamous Nipplegate scandal.

What came next was pure chaos. In Janet’s eyes, Justin walked away without a scratch, while she was left to weather the storm, facing years of brutal backlash. And now, with both stars hitting rocky points in their careers, it’s clear the past is catching up with them.

But here’s the twist. It looks like both Janet and Justin’s questionable choices over the years may have finally caught up with them. With their careers hitting bumps, maybe this is the wake-up call they both needed. Hopefully, they’ll learn from it and move forward with a little more grace and a lot less drama.
