Legendary entertainer Janet Jackson reminded us that she has been rich as f*uck after disclosing to an Atlanta radio station that she hadn’t heard of a particular hood delicacy.
On January 10, Janet sat with the deejays at The Beat ATL 105.3 to chop it up on a myriad of topics, but what brought the hosts to their knees was the topic of Hot Cheetos.
The host asked the 56-year-old icon, “Does Janet Jackson eat Hot Cheetos?”
“Hot Cheetos,” she asked.
“Ok. That means no,” the host said with a laugh.
“I don’t even know what those are,” Jackson said, looking confused.
Another host, off camera, jumped in, “Hot Cheetos are like the hood thing.”
“You really don’t know what those are?”
“No.”
“Hot Cheetos are like Cheetos with hot sauce on them,” the other host explained.
The hat-wearing host told the “Control” singer that she had to try them because she was in Atlanta.
She responded, “Oh really? I bet you that’s good.”
