It's no secret that child stars often?see much more than they should and at too young of an age. This was certainly true for superstar Janet Jackson.
The actress and singer revealed to Anderson Cooper on his talk show "Anderson" that she, too, saw something rather confusing for her?as a young girl. Jackson told her host that when she was just 10 years old, she went to New York to visit her brother Michael while on a break from filming the TV show "Good Times."
"I used to go to (Studio) 54 a lot," Jackson said. "I do (remember it well). You know, it was the first time I ever saw drugs. I couldn't figure out why people were putting flour up their noses."

The star also talked about her weight issues on the set of "Good Times."
"I remember I was getting dressed for the very very first episode ... and the wardrobe lady, while she was dressing me, says I have to put bandages around your chest because your breast are too, I developed at a very young age, and I said, 'OK,'" she revealed.? "I immediately thought, 'I am isn't good enough.' "
Jackson said the?body image problems?continued in her second season of the show. "Just before we were to start, the producers called and said I was too heavy and I needed to lose weight," the star said.
The star also dished on her career, and of course, brother Michael Jackson. See what else she shares when her appearance airs on Monday. Check AndersonCooper.com for local air times.
