Jackie desperately needs the publicity. Why do you object to competitions? How are competitions different from any other form of national TV exposure? I don't (necessarily) object to competitions, as they are a great way to launch a career. But Jackie already launched her career, so what would be the purpose of competing again? What if Jackie went back to Kean Idol and bumped a teenager out of her first-place trophy? I'm pretty sure we would not all be cheering and claiming she deserved first place because she is better than that other girl, or because she needed to vindicate her second-place reputation. She'd be labeled a bully by the music press whether it be Kean Idol or AGT. As a guest, sure, why not. But even then I think it looks a little pathetic to keep going back, just as I would think it would look silly for, say, a town mayor to put on his old quarterback uniform for the homecoming parade to boost his chances of re-election. Maybe a bad analogy, but what I'm trying to say is that Jackie should be guarding against appearing to have stagnated, to not be moving forward (even though it may be true, there are other ways of doing that as we've discussed). I even felt this way about Connie Talbot coming back, even though arguably she needed the boost a lot more than Jackie. National TV exposure is something different. If an artist has something to sell, then doing a promo tour is necessary work. Granted, Jackie hasn't gotten much primetime exposure since her wee days, so one could argue that AGT is the way to get that. But now we're back to enough is enough, try something new and different. New and different sells if the timing is right, and she should not waste any more time playing the same old record. A more elitist argument (that I don't subscribe to) is that the instant talent show path to fame isn't a legitimate way to get recognized. Elton John and others have expressed this. It's a snobby argument put forward by people who "worked their way up" by walking uphill in the snow in both directions, in clubs, on the street, etc. But nobody would begrudge an artist for being finally "discovered" in a club, which would amount to instant fame. They all got there seemingly overnight, so I don't buy that argument. Its not pathetic looking to make appearances on the show that made you famous...even if you've had massive success since then. It's shows your gratitude and acknowledgement at what launched your trajectory to the top. It recognizes where you came from, and the show that discovered you. I totally disagree that it's pathetic... I think THAT is an elitist attitude. I think its exactly the opposite of pathetic, I think it's shows humility, gratitude, and never forgetting where you came from. Now in Jackie's case, where her career is now struggling, it's more like she needs to take advantage the exposure. But even if she was in the midst of super stardom, being willing to come and appear on the show that made you says a lot of great things about you. LoL..you come across as a bit of a snob, I'm sorry to say.

Yes Jackie needs AGT and it's spinoff for exposure, The thing is by now she shouldn't need them. One of the main reason she should have moved to LA. where almost all those shows are filmed. Jackie has to travel and stay in a hotel and bring several people with her maybe for a month. So many on those shows only live no more than 10 or 15 miles away.

Very good picture of Jackie and she said it was for a cover does anyone know what cover she is talking about.
Not surprised that she didn't put it on her instagram account because of all the negative feedback she got in the past for showing some skin. She looks healthy to me in that picture.

Nice picture, but it could have been taken a few years ago.

The question is: when was the last time Jackie needed a cover picture? Answer: not for a number of years.

Reminds me of that super long dress she wore on stage.
