Janet Jackson is so busy prepping for her upcoming Rock With U World Tour, she must have forgotten her plan to have a baby with longtime boyfriend Jermaine Dupri following said tour. Or maybe she was never clued in to the pregnancy plot?

"So, Jermaine...said that you guys may be ready for baby. Is that true?" Ryan Seacrest probed this morning on his KIIS-FM morning show.

A stunned-sounding Janet replied, "When did he say that?"

Unraveling the big secret even more…

Ryan told Janet that when asked by People magazine this weekend, “Are you imminently ready for baby?” Jackson's potential baby daddy said, “Yeah, soon. Right after the tour.”

"I guess he is," Janet acknowledged, laughing.

No word on whether Janet is agreeing to take part in these rumored baby-making plans, but we have a feeling her man is going to be getting an earful tonight—and not the kind that involves hip-hop beats.
