In May, Janet Jackson kicked off her first Las Vegas residency, “Metamorphosis” at the Park Theater. On August 17, Jackson performed her final show and treated fans to a rare backstage selfie on Instagram.

The “What Have You Done For Me Lately” singer exclusively streamed live on Facebook and also uploaded a photo of her getting her makeup done in her dressing room.

The icon is smiling with her teeth looking radiant while rocking her big red curly hair. Her skin is glowing, and she is truly living her best life in Sin City. She kept it comfy in a casual all-black ensemble, making it look effortless to look that good.

Within 15 hours, her post racked up over 51,000 likes, proving to be popular with her followers. The comments section, in particular, was filled with passionate messages.

“I’m enjoying these photos of you looking 25 years old.. KEEP’EM COMIN…” one user wrote.

“My Beautiful, big sister in my head. Never knew I could love someone who I never met,” another shared.

“I enjoy anything you have to give Ms. Jackson! We love you! It was truly an honor meeting you,” a third mentioned.

“I love you miss Jackson!! I loved your show! I hope to see you again!! What an icon!!” a fourth fan commented.

“Janet is one of the prettiest ladies I have ever seen in my entire life,” a fifth follower insisted.

“OMGGG I’M DEADDDD……..” another passionate fan wrote.
