Jackson is set to perform an eight-minute medley of hits during the opener. The performance coincides with the release of “Number Ones,” a hits collection which includes all of Jackson’s international #1 singles, as well as a new song “Make Me.”
Jackson joins Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Whitney Houston, Jay-Z, Kelly Clarkson, Alicia Keys and more as previously announced performers during the awards ceremony. The “American Music Awards” air Sunday, November 22nd at 8pm on ABC.
Jackson’s “Number Ones” compilation, her first hits set since 1995’s “Design of a Decade,” hits stores on Tuesday, November 17th. The day after, she appears for her first sit-down interview since the loss of her brother Michael with ABC’s Robin Roberts. The one-hour special, “In the Spotlight with Robin Roberts: Janet Jackson,” airs at 10pm ET on ABC.
