Who Is Mo Elmasri? Searching for Janet Jackson’s Elusive Fake ‘Manager’ Who Issued an Unauthorized Apology on Her Behalf

Variety contacted Elmasri on Sunday afternoon via the Gmail address on his IMDB page (calls to the phone number listed have gone unanswered and do not lead to voicemail), noting that Jackson’s reps had not confirmed the authenticity of the statement he’d given on the singer’s behalf.
