Janet performed at the MTV European Music Awards tonight in Bilbao.
Performing a medley of songs, she also sang some of her song Made For Now in Spanish.
She also mixed the song with the breakdown from All For You and a rather funky Rhythm Nation remix.
Janet then went on to accept her Global Icon award in which she used her speak to talk about equality and the fight for justice and women. “Tonight I feel moved to speak for women whose voices have been stifled,” she said. “I am one of those women. Women who have been gagged, both literally and emotionally. Women who have been abused, women who have been intimidated, women who have lived in fear, I stand with you. You are my sisters.” “Tonight I carry the hope that a new world is emerging. A world in which caring people – male as well as female – will no longer tolerate gender inequality.”Wow @JanetJackson 👏🏻 our @mtvema Global Icon just brought the house down 🎉 #MTVEMA pic.twitter.com/ktdjMd4sZ0

Spice Girl Emma Bunton revealed that Janet is one of her favourite singers and that she grew up listening to Rhythm Nation and that she first danced with a boy to “Let’s Wait Awhile”.
Janet also spoke about the #MeToo movement as well as talking about how her son Eissa loves the piano.
When asked if she’d encourage him to be a musician, Janet said: “Only if he wants to be. But it’s not an easy life. So it’s truly up to him. If he has a passion for it. He loves piano. He loves drums. He loves music.”
Presenter Jamie Theakston then asked, “He’s not playing the piano before the age of two surely?”, to which Janet replied, “Yeah.”
“He doesn’t bang on it. You know most kids would bang on it? He actually … it’s really interesting because he’ll play a melody.”
“He’ll play something and he’ll go to another note, two notes. And then he’ll go back to the first two notes. And there’s a rhythm to it. It honestly blew my mind.”
Watch clips and listen to the full interview below.
