*If you’ve been paying attention, you know it’s been a pretty rough week for the Jackson clan because of the death of patriarch Joe Jackson at 89.
However, despite her father’s passing, for Janet Jackson, the show must go on! Literally. Janet will be headlining this weekend in New Orleans at the Essence Festival.
Naturally, there was concern from her fans and Essence Festival attendees that Janet would cancel her performance after Joe passed away last week. As has been reported, she and other family members were at his private funeral Monday in Glendale, California.
Sources close to Janet tell TMZ that she’s currently en route to New Orleans for the fest where she’s scheduled to perform Sunday. She also has other dates lined up through August on her State of the World tour too, which she’s also planning to fulfill.
Janet thanked her fans for their support on Wednesday in an Instagram video, where her baby son Issa also made a small off camera appearance.
