Fans go crazy over Janet Jackson's video tribute to brother Michael Jackson



Janet Jackson drove her fans wild on Wednesday when she posted a video tribute to her late brother Michael Jackson in honor of what would have been his 60th birthday.

The iconic singer shared a playful remake of the King of Pop’s “Remember the Time” video with the caption: “Had so much fun with these guys @BLAMEITONKWAY @KingBach @diamond_batiste!”

Social media users went wild over the 1-minute clip and it has amassed more than 800,000 views and nearly 14,000 comments on Twitter and Instagram.

The video co-stars Instagram comedians Kwaylon “BlameItOnKway” Rogers and Andrew “King Bach” Bachelor.

“SURPRISE! I did a video with a legend. Janet Jackson’s first EVER social media video. I love the song and message behind it,” Rogers told his 3.7 million Instagram followers.

“Still in complete shock that this happened! The Jackson family is almost untouchable and she was willing to do a video with ME! I’m truly honored,” he added in a later post.


Rogers and Bachelor take on the roles of dancers who must impress the Egyptian queen, Janet, with their moves or die. Janet, dressed in black and draped with gold jewels, seems unimpressed by the first dancer, so she signals for her guards to drag him away. 

But the second dancer, Rogers, wins her approval and manages to make her smile. Rogers screams “Janet!” and runs toward her sacred throne but the queen stops him. 

The premise is similar to Michael Jackson’s 1992 version, a nine-minute short film co-starring supermodel Iman, Magic Johnson, and Eddie Murphy.

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...
