At 58, Janet Jackson FINALLY Reveals What Really Happened To Michael Jackson.
Janet Jackson is still emotional over Michael’s death: ‘Listening to him every night, seeing him, remembering us’.
The 58-year-old performer told the BBC in an interview published Wednesday that she’s still grieving the death of her brother Michael Jackson. The late superstar died at 50 in 2009.
Janet said she thinks about her brother when she performs their duet “Scream” on her “Together Again” tour. She sings the song live with video footage of Michael.
She said it’s still emotional “listening to him every night, seeing him, remembering us.”
The Grammy winner recalled that she wrote “Scream” with her late brother in his New York apartment.
“So [I relive] that whole journey, listening to him sing it [and remembering] what he was going through at that time,” she said.
“And just me being his little sister, always by his side, and being that support system,” Janet added. “That’s always been my role.”
“Scream” came out in 1995 as the lead single off Michael’s ninth album, “HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I.”
The song was about Michael’s public trials. In 1993, he was accused of sexually abusing 13-year-old Jordan Chandler at his Neverland Ranch. They settled out of court in January 1994 for a reported $25 million, according to Vanity Fair.
