Words are, Janet Jackson will be joining Jackson Five in place of late brother Michael Jackson on their rumored 2010 reunion tour. According to The Sun, big brother Jermaine Jackson has come out with the revelation when he was promoting his new reality TV show “The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty” in Australia.
“We had a conference call and Janet has agreed to join us on tour,” Jermaine allegedly said over the matter. The British tabloid, additionally, reported that although Janet has been persistent in refusing to join her surviving brothers on stage, she finally gave her thumbs up considering that it will be a fitting tribute to Michael, who passed away in June 2009.
Jermaine Jackson has constantly pursued his brothers for a Jackson Five’s reunion tour since late 2007. Youngest brother Michael, however, was reported to be opposing the idea when he was alive. “My brothers and sisters have my full love and support, and we’ve certainly shared many great experiences, but at this time I have no plans to record or tour with them,” he said in response to Jermaine’s reunion remark.
“The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty”, in the meantime, is a new reality TV which stars members of the Jackson family
. It was initially been filmed as a one-off hour-long special about the Jackson Five sans lead singer Michael. When the King of Pop suddenly passed away, however, more footage were shot. The series was aired on A&E Network from December 13, 2009 to January 17, 2010.
