Jimmy Jam is spilling a little music history that has fans talking.
During a recent interview, Jimmy Jam shared that Mary J. Blige and Janet Jackson did not hit it off when they first met.
According to Jam, he once invited Mary J. Blige to his home for a family event. Before attending, Mary asked if Janet Jackson would be there. That question led to a conversation where Mary admitted she did not have a good first impression of Janet from a previous meet and greet.
Interestingly, Jimmy Jam also shared that his first interaction with Mary was not great either. He said when he expressed admiration for her, she simply looked at him without much response.
It just goes to show that first impressions are not always accurate or lasting.
Over time, both artists were able to move past those early moments and build mutual respect. Today, they are two of the most respected women in music.
This story has sparked conversation online about how quickly people judge each other and how those early impressions can sometimes be wrong.
