Janet Jackson’s New Beau Gives Her ‘New Lease on Life’

Posted by Adam

Janet JacksonJANET Jackson’s new boyfriend has given her a “whole new lease on life.”

The 44-year-old singer — who ended her seven-year romance with producer Jermaine Dupri last year — has reportedly been bombarded with gifts by 35-year-old millionaire businessman Wissam Al Mana, and is loving the attention he is giving her.

“He seems to have given her a new lease on life since her brother Michael died,” a source said. “He’s younger than Janet, taller than Janet and far richer than Janet. He has become her knight in shining armor.”

Among the gifts the singer — who met Wassam when he hired her to perform at a private event in the Middle East — has been given by her new love are a yacht cruise with her own butler, a Bentley convertible and a $2,200 Balenciaga Weekender bag and a pink-gold Love bracelet from Cartier.

“For the first time in Janet’s life, she’s with a man who pays for everything,” said the pal. “He’s filthy rich.”

Janet recently spoke about her struggle to get over the passing of Michael, who died of acute Propofol intoxication last June.

“It gets sad sometimes because, I don’t know, you think your phone is going to ring and you hear that voice calling your name,” she said.

“But, yeah, life goes on and everybody grieves differently. And every day is different. Some days it’s much easier than others.”

        Some of U are horrid! No one has a right to judge or say who someone should love or date! Mind ur own business and be happy for others. Oh, I forgot how can U be happy for others if you’re miserable! That’s whay U have the negative comments.

    Janet, is truly a Queen indeed and I agree, Wassam you better take care of her. I don’t know much about him except he’s wealthy but, it appears he is more her type and he’s not a blabber mouth and all over the news like Jermaine. The Jackson’s are known for communicating with billionaires and wealthy people, but they never flaunt who they know. I mean who knew they had been friends with Barry Bonds for years and other celeb-but they never tell and they never put other artist down in interview, they have class…well minus Joe, but he not too bad, he only get stirred up when he want to vent or give his opinion about something that he should keep to himself.
