Janet Jackson's long-awaited diet book
finally has a name.
Superstar Janet Jackson, whose weight issues have been played out in the public eye for years, says she is co-writing a book about her journey as an emotional eater and body image issues.
True You, which has been in the works for almost two years, also tackles her body image issues, which have haunted her nearly her entire life. The 43-year-old told Harper's Bazaar magazine:
“It was originally about weight loss. But I wanted it to be more about my triggers. I can be an emotional eater. Of late, I have been doing that, yes. It started when I was very little."
And just this week she told The Associated Press she has regained control of "just picking yourself apart all the time because you're so used to being kind of picked apart."
But Janet, there were so many title possibilities other than True You: Control, The Pleasure Principle, Discipline, What Have You Done for Me Lately ... the mind boggles.
There's no release date on the book, but we'll keep our eyes peeled.
