Janet Jackson leaves fans speechless with her performance at the Essence Festival of Culture.
On Saturday, Janet took the stage to headline the festival’s evening concert series. The event began with Summer Walker opening the show. Jazmine Sullivan then performed some her ‘Heaux Tales’ tracks. If that’s wasn’t enough, the legendary Patti LaBelle graced the crowd with a few of her hits.
However, Janet seemed to have stolen the show with her impressive vocals and rigorous choreography.
Check out what Twitter users had to say about Ms. Jackson’s performance:
Dear @hulu, @Essence, @essencefest, @JanetJackson, and anybody else who can make this happen,
WE NEED THIS PERFORMANCE AVAILABLE TO US FOREVER! 🙌🏾😭
Sincerely,
Literally Everyone on EARTH 🌍#JanetJackson #essencefestival #essensefest #JanFam pic.twitter.com/BDY1V2yhP2— 𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐭 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 (@MrWintour) July 3, 2022

Janet Jackson is giving a masterclass at Essence Fest in crafting a concert set list. She is bouncing between hit singles and deep cuts with precision and continuing to build on or coast on the energy of the track before.
