Janet Jackson Makes Rare Surprise Appearance on Dancing With the Stars With Message for Jenna Dewan


Janet Jackson Commands the Red Carpet in Head-Turning Sheer Dress During Ultra Rare Appearance

Janet Jackson is all for Jenna Dewan on Dancing With the Stars.

The “Rhythm Nation” singer surprised the Step Up star with a sweet video message during the dancing competition’s Grammys Night episode on Nov. 10, telling Dewan—who was Jackson’s backup dancer in her “Doesn’t Really Matter” and “All for You” music videos—that she was “so excited” about the routine.

“I cannot wait to watch you perform tonight,” Jackson began. “You’re performing to ‘All for You.’ I feel so honored all for you.”

The 60-year-old, who won a Best Dance Recording Grammy for the 2001 smash hit, went on to reminisce about their time working together.

“Weren’t those such fun times we had back then during those days for the All for You Tour?” she continued. “I miss you. I love you.”

Assuring Dewan, 45, that she and pro dance partner Val Chmerkovskiy will do an “incredible job” with their jazz routine, Jackson added, “Let’s get together when I’m back in L.A.”
