News: Janet Jackson Eyes March 2007 Tour

"My three choreographers and I are working on ideas now for a world tour," Jackson told Billboard. "It's always a visual thing for me as we start planning; I can see it on the stage. I don't want to share those ideas yet, because nothing is etched in stone. But we'll begin rehearsing at the end of the year."

According to Billboard Boxscore, Jackson is one of the most successful female touring artists of all time. Between 1993 and her last tour in 2002, Jackson grossed $94 million and sold nearly 2 million tickets to just 161 shows.

According to Brad Wavra - touring VP at concert promoter Live Nation, which handled her 1998-99 Velvet Rope tour and 2001-2002 All for You tour - Janet's fan base is primarily a "white, suburban audience."

"Everything we ever did with her was strategically planned to be promoted on both sides of the equation, pop and urban," explained Wavra. But Jackson "always understood that the African-American part of her life and her audience was an important part, and she made sure her songs, her live show and her ticket prices appealed to both segments."

Wavra believes Jackson's 2007 outing will be "wildly successful," despite the backlash that followed her 2004 wardrobe malfunction at the Super Bowl.

"I think that Janet got a bum rap," he says. "She's the antithesis of that person that was created in the media. If it hadn't been an election year I doubt it would have gotten played like it did."

Meanwhile, in Germany Monday to promote "20 Y.O," Jackson not only took the opportunity to endorse Hillary Clinton for president if she decides to run, she also offered a critique on the current state of global affairs.

"I am not satisfied with the situation in this world. I hate war, the singer said."
