Emotional POST-DEATH Tribute To Michael Jackson | Janet Jackson / VMA's 2009 (4K)

Michael Jackson's sister, Janet, appears live to pay an emotional tribute to her brother who died earlier that year. This took place at the MTV VMA Awards and features Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Pink, J Lo, Ne-Yo, Lady Gaga and many others in the audience, watching as MTV pays tribute to their idol.

Songs included are:
Thriller
Bad
Smooth Criminal
Scream

Watch all the way through because I have also included bonus audio. I made a Live Studio Version

Fortunately, this was easy because the quality was not the worst to begin with. I've improved the audio and video quality because I think this is a great video which needs to be seen in HD. This channel is all about video quality and this video can be added to the discussion.

The fact that she had herself edited out the original video so she could do her part of the dance live with the video of her brother was down right genius.

Janet's entrance NEVER GETS OLD HOLY CRAPPP

Oh Janet is angry AF here. Janet, we're angry too. It's 2023 and we're still angry too.

[stevensanchez]

She did that performance for Michael not for the fans she did it to preserve his legacy. You can see the pain in her eyes for that song in general and what it was about. The media attacks and conspiracies that tried to tarnish him and his art! Rip Michael we miss you! ❤️

When Janet does this solo dancing with Michael on the screen I can’t resist and cry. The world lost a true diamond!!!

[danasaumane]

The pain and anger in Janet's eyes. Rest in Peace, MJ! We'll love you forever!

It must have been so emotional for Janet when she did the dance without him. I would start crying that just must have been so hard for her...

[jobella]

It’s so iconic that all the OG choreographers that ever worked with MJ and Janet in the 90’s backed her performance as she came out. That made it so much special to me! ❤🔥

He should have gotten this respect when he was alive

[MannysMillennialMouth]

People always reference Chris Brown's tribute on the BET Awards but THIS was the BEST tribute I've seen for Michael since his passing. Nothing is topping Miss Jackson

[serria]

Crowds go wild when Janet showed up just imagine MJ just pulled up from no where 😭😭

[sashaleguizamon]

the fact she looked up in the sky looking for michael always makes me cry

[talentgirl]

That look on her face made me cry so hard. The pain. The anger. The pride. The love. I feel you, Janet. I'm a Janet with a brother of my own called Michael - same age as MJ. I am re-living the loss of MJ this past month or so. The more I watch, the more I grieve and the more I pray for justice for MJ!

Katherine Jackson really snapped when she had Michael and Janet. The two greatest entertainers of all time.

[whitneywillis]

the way she walked out, the dancing, and how she had all the legendary choreographers there to hold her down as the backup dancers...it makes the tribute that much more special

[alanasnowdee]

Janet came to set the record STRAIGHT! She embodied & honored her brother/mentor❤️

[imranimtiaz]

MJ you rock man even after you're no longer here.The music, the energy the atmosphere, the dancing is still un matched.

[lolly_golightly]

Everyone talks about Janet’s eyes full of pain. Yes. And fury. Pure righteous fury and a huge f you to many in that moment. It’s like no one listened to the lyrics of “Scream” or lost the context. Even that last look she shot. Pure rage.

[GB-vjyl]

At the end, You can see in Janet's eyes that she feels all these hypocrites when Michael was alive and alone ...

This is iconic! Still here in 2024 and I am still disgusted by how the industry did Michael. May he rest in peace.
