Following a competition announced on The View this week, Janet has been retweeting videos from her fans as part of the #JanetDubsmash hashtag.

And of course we think the one of Darren and his friends Sam and Sham filmed in a club a while ago (although not strictly Dubsmash) stands a good chance.

London dance group film BurnItUp! tribute

A London based group has filmed a dance video to Janet’s current single BurnItUp!.

Filmed on the streets of London, including outside the O2 where Janet will be performing in March next year, the group’s video is already gaining lots of traction on YouTube.

Undoubtedly one of the best videos shot to the song so far and showcasing the city, the project was created and produced by Tobias Ellehammer and directed by Mike Dones.

Here at Janet Love we couldn’t be more proud of seeing London based dancers paying tribute to Janet.

About the project Tobias said:

I wanted to create a project that would bring people together and deliver the message of the importance in having a versatile and open mindset. We should really all try to stay versatile and support each other. Let’s appreciate how different we all are and grow together. Learning from each other’s gifts and differences. It’s not about what style you do. It’s about the love for dance that we all share. I wanna give a massive thanks to all the people involved that took time out of there schedule to help deliver the message. The amount of talent in this video is beyond any of my expectations and I feel very honored. Enjoy.

Jermaine Jackson: Janet will open for us next year

Janet’s brother, Jermaine Jackson, has said in an interview with Australian Associated Press that the entire Jackson 5 will reunite next year for a new album and a tour. He has further stated that Janet will be the opening act – something that Janet has spoken about in previous interviews.

“It is just the timing, so what we’ve been doing is working on the music and all the logistics. It is going to be more like a family affair, Janet’s going to open and, of course, the original Jackson 5 … Michael, Randy and the whole family. … We’re in the studio, we’re planning on being out there next year,” Jermaine said.

It is not yet known whether the show will actually go ahead as it has been spoken about for several months or what impact it will have on Janet’s possible plans to take her Rock Witchu Tour across the globe.
