Janet Jackson has revealed details of the release of JANET, an upcoming career documentary that she co-produced with Randy Jackson. The two-part film will air over two nights on Lifetime and A&E, but a specific date has not yet been announced. Check out a teaser for JANET below.
The documentary comes out nearly three years after Jackson was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, with Janelle Monáe doing the honors. It also marks the 40th anniversary of Jackson’s debut album, Janet. Earlier this year, some of her work was archived in the Library of Congress, along with material from LaBelle, Kool & the Gang, Nas, Kermit the Frog, and others.
