Jackson planning to release a book documenting her dramatic weight gain and subsequent loss.
Yahoo! Music reports that Janet Jackson is planning to write a book about weight loss, having experienced significant weight gain and miraculous loss throughout her life.
Jackson is co-writing the book with her nutritionist, David Allen.
The singer says that it was her fans asking how she managed to lose weight that inspired her to write it.
"Everybody asks me -- men, women -- how did I do it?" she tells Billboard. "Even young people will come up to me and they have an issue with their weight and they're very concerned. So it's basically my journey; it's not just this sterile, weight-loss-and-how-to-do-it book, but my journey even from when I was a kid ... being an emotional eater. It takes you through those moments in my life up 'til now and what worked for me."
The as-yet-untitled book is expected to be released towards the end of the year.
