For the first time in over a decade, Janet Jackson will perform in London, where she will kick off her “Black Diamond” world tour.
Jackson was supposed to go on tour in 2020, but was forced to cancel due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The tour has since been reworked.
“She is so grateful to her fans for sticking by her while she has had a few years out to start a family and wants to thank them with an amazing production,” a source told The Sun.
The “Rhythm Nation” singer is said to be preparing fans for a “spectacular tour’” that will focus on the 25th anniversary of her “The Velvet Rope” album.
In 2017, Jackson became a mother for the first time at 50 with husband Wisam Al Mana. The pair split shortly after the birth of their son, but continue to co-parent.
“My son has shown me that love, no matter how deeply you believe you have experienced that emotion, can always go deeper. Love is limitless. And for someone like me, raised in show business where self-concern is always a priority, how fortunate I am now to be concerned, first and foremost, with the welfare of someone else,” Jackson told Billboard
