In a behind-the-scenes documentary, due to air tomorrow on MTV, Janet says that her Video Music Awards performance was the most fun she’d ever had putting together a project for television.

She said: “This is the most fun – from my mouth to God’s ears – the most fun I have ever had working on a project for TV.

“It’s a lot of hard work. But I always enjoy myself. I try to enjoy myself, have fun. I enjoyed myself from day one all the way to the end.”

Speaking to MTV during rehearsals for the show, Janet said: “I just wanted to come to rehearsal when I’m supposed to come to rehearsal as if I’m one of the kids. Just let me know when and where, and where I stand, and teach me what what I’m supposed to know. I wanted it to be that for me this time around. I wanted it to be like that this time, even though I got a little more involved than that still, but not to the magnitude that I normally get involved.”
