Gay rights advocate Janet Jackson still isn't over her dear friend's death. The multi-award winning star admits she still hurts every time she remembers Jose, who died of AIDS.
The pop superstar regrets that she didn't get the opportunity to tell make-up artist Jose what he meant to her before his demise.
Jackson, 41, has been quoted by contactmusic.com saying, "I lost a lot of friends to AIDS and one who I absolutely adored so much. His name was Jose, and we worked a lot together in Europe."
"He would put these eyelashes on me that he would make from real hair. His sister would cut her hair so he could make these eyelashes. They were the most beautiful things. He was so much fun to be with."
Jackson, who will kick off her world tour in September, says she didn't even get a chance to talk to Jose before his final hour.
She continues, "I had heard he was sick and he was passing, and it was just so sad. I didn't have the opportunity to (talk to him before he died). That part really hurts, when you're trying to reach someone before (they die)."
