Janet Jackson moved to end her marriage earlier this year and now she’s reportedly rekindling her relationship with Jermaine Dupri. The singer, who split from Qatari businessman Wissam Al Mana in April, was spotted cozying up to the Atlanta-based producer at STK restaurant.

“They were in a private area at her exclusive tour wrap party,” a source told People magazine Thursday, Dec. 21 before noting the duo was “cuddled up in a private booth holding hands.”

So are the two officially an item? The single mom purportedly isn’t back with her ex-boyfriend of 8 years just yet, despite conflicting reports.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
