"It is interesting to note that fans of Mariah Carey, Madonna, and Britney Spears also flood Janet’s website to compare their favorites to Ms. Jackson. Their battles can become epic, degrading, and uncensored. It is almost as if an insult to your favorite artist is an insult to you as a person. If a Mariah Carey fans says Janet’s music is garbage and her vocal talents are inferior, it is almost as if they are proving themselves worthy versus stating a preference in music. Online fans sites have become a place where fans degrade and promote an artist. What do the fans get in return? The thought that they supported a top-selling artist versus the second top-selling or third top-selling artist. What does the artist get in return? Whether in the first, second, or third spot, they get millions of dollars. Does not seem like much of a trade-off. No, when you have a healthy self-esteem."
