JANET JACKSON - DUPRI DENIES BLINDNESS RUMOURS

LATEST: JANET JACKSON's music producer boyfriend JERMAINE DUPRI has denied recent laser eye surgery left him "virtually blind". Dupri was forced to cancel a lecture in New York last week (ends29Feb08) after reportedly suffering complications following an operation to correct his vision. Rumours later surfaced on the Internet that Dupri was left "virtually blind" - although a spokesperson for the star insists he is not suffering major problems with his eyesight. Patti Webster, Dupri's publicist, dismissed the claims as "not true".
