Janet JacksonNow that Michael Jackson’s body has finally been laid to rest, it looks like his sister Janet Jackson is planning to pull out all the stops for a one-time tribute to the King of Pop at next weekend’s MTV Video Music Awards.

According to TMZ, Janet and her crew of around 20 backup dancers have been rehearsing around the clock — up to 15 hours in a single day — for Sunday night’s annual awards spectacle.

Janet, who has remained relatively quiet in the wake of her family’s tragic loss, is reportedly working on the tribute with some of the world’s top choreographers, including Frank Gatson and Travis Payne.

One dancer involved in the project tells TMZ “there won’t be a dry eye in the house” at the end of the number.

You’ll just have to wait until Sunday, Sept. 13 to see for yourself.

    OMG…this is going to be awesome. I know Janet will do such an amazing job, and her & her brother had such a great connection, that he didn’t have with anyone else. I am really looking forward to seeing this. MJ will be watching from heaven, very proud of his little siter “DUNK”. I know I will be crying after watching her performance. She seems to be the only one in her family that is not off trting to make money from his death. Janet is a great artist, and I know she will make a moving performance that will be something we will always remember…

  6. Shana says:

    Funny, I said wouldn’t it be awesome if Janet did a tribute dance for Michael at the funeral. I’m so glad my dream has come true. I still hurt deeply as if I lost my brother. I still can not understand why and that’s what makes it even harder to grasp. I didn’t realize how much I loved this man; this human being. I love you Michael your in our hearts forever.
