SURE, BUT WHO'S HOLDING DONNA NOW? One of my favorite entertainment-world rumors is finally getting a public airing, as "Young" DeBarge has apparently confirmed that Janet Jackson has an 18-year old daughter named Renee, born of (or after) her brief 1980s marriage to James DeBarge and raised by Janet's sister Rebbie.

I first heard of this story a few years ago back when Ms. Jackson was dating Justin Timberlake, and there was a blind gossip item (in I think the NY Post) which basically asked, Which May-December romance in the music world had a real freakout when the younger guy was told that the older woman had a child that was about his age? And it would help explain the change in Janet's appearance between Control and Rhythm Nation 1814.

On a scale of 1 to 10, where '1' represents "there's just no way this is true" to a '10' of "I can totally see Janet Jackson doing this," how do you evaluate this story?
