JANET WANTS TO SHARE HER COVER: Singer will let the fans choose her next album image.

(July 19, 2006)

*Janet Jackson wants to make a family affair of her upcoming set “20 Years Old,” by giving the fan a chance to weigh in on her album cover.

The newly 40-year old will hand over the artwork to the fans through a Yahoo! Music contest that began Tuesday, July 18.

Starting at noon PST, fans were able to download 33 images of Jackson to develop their own covers. Jackson will be the judge and will choose four finalists, whose winning covers will appear on "selected publicly distributed copies" of the album, according to Virgin.

Another sixteen finalists will win Jackson's complete album discography on CD. Each design will get its own link that can be shared.

"20 Years Old" is due to drop Sept. 26. The set was produced by Jackson's super producer boyfriend Jermaine Dupri, as well as her honorary brothers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. After four weeks on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, the single "Call on Me" is No. 16.
