This weekend MTV will be airing never before seen footage of Janet Jackson’s rehearsal footage of her highly acclaimed 2009 VMA tribute to her late brother King of Pop Michael Jackson. They plan to give viewers a peek into an intimate interview with Janet Jackson .
Janet Jackson : "It was very emotional for me and I was trying not to cry. And I got choked up a few times. It gave me goosebumps. I thought [the dancers] looked incredible. They had just learned it. [It's] just like you're seeing all these carbon copies of your brother, and because he left such an impression with his style on so many different generations — and, still, this generation — and to see them try to mimic him to the T and doing an incredible job at it as if he was the one that taught them — 'No, this is how you do it' — and to see them look so close to his movement, it just touched me. It really touched me
The footage will also include the planning of the elaborate stage production, which featured a cast of dancers in various Michael Jackson replica costumes performing his signature moves. Be sure to tune in this Saturday , September 19th at 12:30 p.m. on MTV.
