Janet Jackson Says About the Scream Video
Janet Jackson, Michael’s sister, is busy putting together her Number One tour. On this tour, Scream, she performs their duet with Michael. In an interview with CNN, Janet talked about how the collaboration between the two came about:
“I was busy on the Rhythm Nation tour when Michael asked me to sing a duet with him, but I turned him down. I still wanted to find my place in music, and I didn’t want to do a collaboration with him until that happened. I didn’t want to be someone’s follower. Years later, when I was doing my ‘Janet’ tour, he repeated the request again, and this time I felt like I had found my place in music, and it was a good time to collaborate with him.”
Janet first performed a tribute version of the song Scream at Michael’s memorial event at the MTV 2010 Awards. She says it isn’t a difficult thing, and hearing Michael’s voice gives her an incredible feeling.
“On stage, I find myself. Memories of recording this song with him come back to life in my mind.”
