Today, I have another new type of media training video to share with you called DEAR JANETTE, where I’ll be answering an on-camera/media question that I received so that all of you can get the knowledge, advice, and tips I take so much pride in sharing with my clients. This email request comes from Abbey and reads: Dear Janette, My question for you is something I’ve tried to understand for a long time but can’t get my mind around: why are my media pitches being rejected or left without a response?

After discussing what R Kelly did wrong in this media interview during part one of this series, I’m now examining 5 things I believe R. Kelly did right or well as the interview subject. As a Media Personality, Mentor & Trainer, as well as Executive Producer and Host/Creator of the 4-time award-winning lifestyle TV show Janette’s TV and Janette’s TV Podcast, for the past 20 plus years, I’ve provided my celebrity, CEO, C-Suite executive, entrepreneur, professional, speaker, and book author clients with observations like this so they can experience first-hand how to handle being in the spotlight. I’d like you to benefit from this too when being interviewed by the media or making your own videos and LIVES on social media.
For the new year, I thought I’d try something different. Today, in part-one of my two-part mini-series, I’m examining American television personality, author and broadcast journalist for CBS News, co-host of CBS Mornings, an editor-at-large for O, The Oprah Magazine, Gayle King’s 2019 media interview with American singer, songwriter, record producer and convicted sex offender, R. Kelly and critiquing the 5 things that I believe he did wrong or could have done better. As a Media Personality, Mentor & Trainer, as well as Executive Producer and Host/Creator of the 4-time award-winning lifestyle TV show Janette’s TV and Janette’s TV Podcast, for the past 20 plus years, I’ve provided my celebrity, CEO, C-Suite executive, entrepreneur, professional, speaker, and book author clients with observations like this so they can experience first-hand how to handle being in the spotlight and not make the same mistakes. I hope you will learn from it too.
