Janet Jackson pictures

A video clip that purportedly shows pop singer Janet Jackson sunbathing in the nude was circulating on the Internet on Thursday. Jackson's manager in Los Angeles declined to comment on the footage and referred queries to the singer's New Jersey-based publicist, who did not immediately return repeated phone calls. The video appears to have been shot surreptitiously through an opening in a fence surrounding an outdoor enclosure where the subject was lying on a chaise lounge. In a 34-second version of the clip playing on one Web site, called ThisWebsiteRules.com, a woman who appears to be Jackson is first seen lying on her back, tapping her hands beside her and moving her head back and forth as if listening to music. At one point, she appears to be rubbing lotion on her upper body, then her face is revealed as she sits up slightly. The woman is then shown lying facing down and reaching behind her to tap her buttocks rhythmically. Another site, iFilm.com, had posted the video earlier but late Thursday was running a message that said: "Out of respect for Ms. Jackson, this film has been removed from iFilm.com."

Public outrage over the brief flash of nudity, initially blamed on a "wardrobe malfunction," sparked a Federal Communications Commission probe, congressional action to stiffen fines for broadcast indecency, and an industrywide crackdown on sexually explicit material on TV and radio. Jackson made headlines on Wednesday with a statement, issued through the TV show "Access Hollywood," denying claims that she secretly had a daughter 18 years ago with fellow singer James DeBarge, to whom she was briefly married. That claim was made by her former brother-in-law, Young DeBarge, during a radio interview last week.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Janet Jackson has been exposed -- and this time, Justin Timberlake is nowhere to be seen. A video clip showing Jackson sunbathing naked has been circulating on the Internet and was still playing on some Web sites Thursday. The 40-second paparazzi video was shot from bushes near the singer. Jackson's publicist didn't return a call Thursday from The Associated Press for comment. Her lawyers were reportedly attempting to have the video taken off the Web. On one site, a freeze-frame was still up Thursday, but the video link had been taken down -- replaced with the message "removed because lawsuits aren't really my thing." The exact source of the video and when it was shot was unclear. Photos taken at the same time popped up online last year. Jackson found herself in the middle of controversy when Timberlake revealed her right breast -- the now infamous "wardrobe malfunction" -- at the end of their set during the halftime show of the 2004 Super Bowl. Last week, her former brother-in-law, Young DeBarge, accused her of having a "secret" child -- a daughter, Renee, now 18 -- with ex-husband James DeBarge. The 39-year-old singer issued a statement Wednesday saying: "I do not have a child and all allegations saying so are false." Jackson's brother Tito defended her in an interview that was to air Thursday night on syndicated TV entertainment show "Extra." "I do not have a nephew or niece or whatever it is that's being said right now," he said. "I'm pretty sure it bothered her a little bit, but she's going to go on and be strong like Janet always is. ... She'll be OK."
