The last time Janet Jackson was in the spotlight for a relationship was back in 2017 during her lightening speed post-baby split from her then billionaire husband, Wissam Al Mana. The two separated in 2017 after Eissa was born and are said to be happily co-parenting their kid, while moving on with their lives. Ever since then, Janet’s been keeping her current love life on the low.

However, there was a time when we all got to witness Janet truly happy in a relationship – when she was with her then longterm boyfriend/SoSo Def music mogul, Jermaine Dupri. They dated for nine years, before finally saying ‘peace out’ to each other in 2009.

When news first broke that Jermaine had actually pulled Janet, he gave many men across the world hope that maybe one day they could shoot their shot at Janet too. Of course that was not the case, but it was cool to dream. Anyways, we wanted to share with y’all what Janet once shared in her 2006 Essence Magazine interview, regarding what she loved about having sex with Jermaine. Simply put, Janet revealed a lot about her very high sexual drive that most men couldn’t keep up with…daaaaamn. Here’s what was reported via PopSugar:

Janet Jackson confesses she enjoyed sex more than her lovers did – until she met Jermaine Dupri. “I feel like I finally met my match,” she tells Essence magazine. “In relationships it was always the guy telling me, ‘OK, hold on, wait a minute.’ I’d ask my girlfriends, ‘Aren’t we supposed to be the ones who say, ‘Wait, not tonight, I have a headache’? This happened through two [marriages] for me. I thought something’s not right here. But with Jermaine I don’t have to say anything; he knows I’m ready. Any time, any place.”

Okay Janet, that “Anytime, Anyplace” reference was on point, we see what you did there. Now, sure Janet’s revelation that she likes to get it in all day, errday may be a little TMI (too much information) for some. But it’s also pretty cool that they loved each other so much, that Janet felt comfortable enough -maybe even too comfortable- to publicly discuss her man in that manner at the time.

On a side note, now that Janet is single, maybe Jermaine should try to get his woman back again. Hell, he might as well, especially after making a lifetime commitment to Janet by putting that big tattoo of her face on his ribs…

And besides, Janet’s and Jermaine Dupri’s relationship was a win-win for both of them. Janet was with a man whom she said (in a prior interview) made her truly feel beautiful from the inside out. And Jermaine Dupri actually got to date the sister of the icon he imitated when he was that jheri curl rockin,’ pop locking kid wearing the Michael Jackson inspired jacket in Whodini’s “Friends” video back in the day…

There HAS to still be some love left there. Don’t you agree?
