Posted August 21, 200618 yr Washington, Aug 14: Pop star Janet Jackson blasted her former husband James Debarge`s family for circulating rumors that she has a secret child. Janet’s former brother-in-law had revealed to American magazine OK! last year that the singer has a secret 18-year-old daughter, and the child had been brought up as her niece. However Jackson rubbished the claims about her secret child. "The really painful thing about that is that they are bringing a real human being into it, my niece, and no one`s thinking about her feelings. She calls me about it and says, `Aunty Janet, it`s so stupid. They don`t even have the math right...` There is no way I could have had a child. Everyone would have seen that I was pregnant," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. Janet Jackson wed James DeBarge when she was 18, and he was 21. The marriage lasted only three months. And though the Super Bowl flasher has shied away from motherhood during any of her previous relationships, it seems that she is now ready to have boyfriend/producer Jermaine Dupri’s baby. "I had never wanted that in my past relationships, even though they (lovers) did. I think if it`s God`s plan for us, it`ll happen," she added. it's true though, how could she have been pregnant when nobody noticed, and janet confirms that the girl actually is her niece!
