Pop icon Janet Jackson made a surprise appearance at the Gold Room last night for her boo Jermaine Dupri’s Hip Hop Honoree Party. My sources tell me that Janet and JD are still an item, but she doesn’t want anyone to know.

Why else would she show up at the Gold Room 30 minutes before he got there to surprise him? I’m told that Janet arrived at the club around 10:30 with her entourage, which included her gay dancers. She partied in a VIP room with her gay dancers for an hour before leaving.

Janet is in Atlanta working on Tyler Perry’s new movie, which just wrapped shooting in New York City.

Celebrity photographer Prince Williams had to jump through hoops to get these Exclusive shots for you. The lame club security showed their azzes by manhandling Prince at the door as Janet walked in. He had to remind the idiots that they work for the club — not the celebrity or their entourage!

The club isn’t making any money off of the celebrity showing up unannounced. But pictures of A-list celebrities walking into your club is the type of promotion that most club owners would give an arm and a leg for. So why won’t the club security move out of the way and let the paparazzi get their shots?

I heard that one of the club’s security got fired last night for putting his hands on Prince. Hopefully, he learned something.
