Miss Jackson

This song is based on a real person, The lead singer of the band, brendon urie said this in an interview "Miss Jackson' is about something that actually happened to me when I was younger. I hadn't really talked about it, and I felt that if I didn't, I would keep thinking about it, it would drive me crazy, When I was younger, I would mess around; I'd sleep with one girl one night, sleep with her friend the next night, and not care about how they felt, or how I made them feel. And then it happened to me and I realized 'Wow, that's what that feels like? I feel really sh---y.''"

i think this song is about a prostitute/player who everyone falls for, and she'll sleep with them one night, and then disappear without a trace. and the people that she sleeps with, her "victims", are so in love with her they'd pretty much sell their souls to be with her (that's what I get from the music video, anyway :/ )

(also if you want to get really twisted with it, I think what's going on in the music video is that Brendon sleeps with this prostitute (miss jackson) and doesn't want her to leave, so he kills her so he can keep her forever. That's how i see it anyway. he definitely acts like a serial killer/druggatic in the video 0_o)

It doesn't sound like "Are you nasty" it sounds like "On her worst day." Can anyone confirm this?

At a recent Panic!at the Disco concert Brendon said that this song was about a girl who he used to have sex with. This girl then started having sex with all of his friends. Brendon said he wouldn't use her real name but instead calls her Miss Jackson.

Actually the song comes from Janet Jackson's "Nasty"

It's about a cat.

Totally!!! The chorus sounds like a direct reference to the song Nasty if you're familiar with the original Miss Jackson. Stroke of genius if you ask me.

I saw the interview where Brendon talks about the real meaning behind the song, but when I first saw the video I thought it was about a drug addiction. Miss Jackson is the drug and he is talking about his struggles, but he overcomes it in the end and that is why he kills her.

It's "Are you not staying", not "Are you nasty"

"Miss Jackson, are you nasty?" he said that miss jackson is a reference to janet jackson and her song "nasty", on this song she talks about how much she hates nasty boys, but brendon is asking her are you nasty? because she might hate something that actually she does.

And this is what kind of happened to brendon, when someone was nasty with him, he realized he should stop being nasty himself with other women. (sorry about my english)
