"Come on, J. You gotta get up. You have the video shoot and interviews today."My manager burst into my bedroom and opened my curtains.

"With who? I thought my schedule was clear today? I'm tired I don't want to do anything."I drug myself out of bed with my blankets still around me because I was naked.

"No. Your schedule isn't clear for another three days. I let you sleep long enough. You have to be at the shoot by 7:00. They're coming on set to interview you around 11:00. It's a behind the scenes type of thing."

I groaned and rolled my eyes. Sometimes I really hated to be myself.  I walked into my bathroom and turned on the shower. "I'll be out in a second."

I quickly jumped in the shower and bathed as fast as my body allowed me to. I was still tired but I tried to put a little pep in my step.

I climbed out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body.

"Hurry it up J! You have 20 minutes."

I walked over to my closet and picked up a pair of sweats that were on my floor.  I grabbed a T-shirt along with the first pair of shoes I saw and ran down the stairs.

"I'm ready."I sighed and walked out of the door.  My driver came out and opened the door for me. I sat in the back seat and waited patiently for him to drive off.

We arrived at the studio and he opened the door for me once again. "Hi, booty."All the kids spoke to me.

"Hey, you guys."I smiled and walked back to my dressing room. We all had to be in hair and makeup. I sat down in my chair and closed my eyes to get my makeup done.

"Hey J. Turns out MTV showed up early. I need you to come down soon as you get your makeup done and get dressed."

I mentally rolled my eyes. "Alright."

"You alright, J?"Kevyn asked me.

"I'm fine. I'm just tired."I plastered a smile on my face.

"Boo!"Tish ran into my dressing room sounding excited.

"Guess who's interviewing you? Ooh, girl, I can't believe it."

"Who?"Janet raised an eyebrow.

"Stop moving J!" Kevyn sucked his teeth and continued her makeup.

"BILL BELLAMY! With his fine ass. He's even finer in person."Tish fanned herself.

"I've never heard of him. Who is he?"I opened my eyes.

"He's a comedian. You've never seen Def-Comedy Jam?"Tish widened her eyes. "I watch it all the time."

"No. I've heard of it. I guess I'll see in a few minutes."I chuckled and stood up. "Bring my costume please."

"It's right there on the couch."Kevyn pointed. "They brought it in here earlier."

I took my costume in the bathroom and put it on. "How does it look guys?"

"You're looking good J." Kevyn winked at me.

"Yes, Boo! It looks good. Let's go downstairs so you can see him."Tish practically dragged me out of my dressing room. As we walked down the hallway I heard a familiar voice.

No, it couldn't be. I had to be dreaming.

"Yes. I'm a big fan. I always wanted to meet Janet."He smiled at my other dancers.

I quickly grabbed Tish's hand and pulled her back into my direction. "That's him."I widened my eyes.

"Are you serious? He's your mystery guy? Oh honey, now I see why you were tripping. Bill is fine as hell."Tish chuckled.
