After a personal introduction from Madonna herself, a fully-clothed Janet Jackson took the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards to honor her late brother Michael.

In a routine reminiscent of Natalie Cole, Janet performed her part of the song "Scream" while a music video of Michael doing his part played in the background.

Janet Jackson has been busting her butt rehearsing for a Michael Jackson tribute at the MTV Video Awards this weekend -- and it promises to be a nipple-free affair. We think.
Ms. Jackson is set to put on a huge MJ-honoring performance featuring 20 backup dancers -- which is being put together by some of the best choreographers in the world, including Frank Gatson and Travis Payne.
According to one of the dancers involved, some rehearsals have lasted 15 hours a day.
Once Janet is finished honoring her brother, we're told, "there won't be a dry eye in the house."

Janet Jackson must have seen the valet at Katsuya in Brentwood yesterday and thought to herself, "What have you done for me lately?" And the answer, apparently, was nothing.

Miss Jackson was in such a hurry to avoid our cameraman, she forgot to pay the valet -- but he didn't seem to mind one bit.

Michael Jackson turned on his own flesh and blood by torpedoing a family reunion concert, according to a lawsuit that was just filed.
AllGood Entertainment just filed a Federal lawsuit, claiming Jackson reneged on his promise to perform with his brothers and sister Janet before performing any other concerts on his own.
After allegedly agreeing to the deal with AllGood -- the company that was producing the family concert -- Jackson inked a separate deal to perform a series of concerts in London.
According to the suit, Jackson and his manager, Frank Dileo, "secretly teamed up with AEG [the London producer]" knowing full well that Jackson committed to doing the family concert first.
AllGood claims its deal with Jacko prohibited him from signing any other contracts until 3 months after he performed the family concert.
Jackson has claimed he never signed the deal with AllGood -- his manager did. AllGood says the manager speaks for Jackson.
AllGood is suing for $20 million -- minimum. The company is also asking the judge to derail the London concerts, scheduled to kick off next month.

Huge news....Michael Jackson told us he is indeed doing that special, one night concert with the Jackson 5 and sister Janet in Texas -- as well as his London concert series. Problem is ...he could still get sued.

The Jackson family is in chaos over Jacko's decision to perform in London, because his rep signed a deal that he'd do a concert with his family and not perform anywhere else for 18 months. The group organizing the family concert has threatened to sue if the London concert goes on.
Jacko stands to make $3 million off the family concert -- and a lot more from the London gigs. Jackson's bros would split $500,000 for their troubles. The question -- is this enough jack to avert a suit?
Stay tuned

We've learned there was a secret meeting yesterday at the Beverly Hills Hotel, where Michael Jackson made it clear -- he will not perform with Janet and the Jackson 5; and the dude who organized the concert tour tells us he will sue them.
As we first reported, Jacko's manager signed a deal on behalf of M.J. to perform with his sis and bros at Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas in 2010. Part of the deal -- that he not sign any other concert deal for 18 months. But then Jacko went and signed up for his London concerts which are scheduled to begin in July.
The company that organized the family concert --- AllGood Entertainment -- got Michael, daddy Joe Jackson and several others in a room yesterday at the Bev Hills Hotel. Joe tried to convince Michael that the family tour should go on, but Michael wouldn't budge because it would have aired on pay-per-view and M.J. said he doesn't like pay-per-view! The meeting was heated and no one agreed to anything.
Patrick Allocco of AllGood Entertainment tells us he's going to sue Jackson and his family next week.
Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Patrick Allocco has resubmitted his offer for MJ to perform with the Jackson 5 and Janet without the pay-per-view. For this one night event, MJ would be paid $3million, Janet $1mil, and the brothers would get $500,000 to split.
Allocco is making this his last and final offer. If Jacko refuses, AllGood Entertainment will proceed with suing him and his family.

Since no one can get a straight answer out of Janet Jackson about her pregnancy rumors -- the ever media ready La Toya Jackson will have to do.

The black sheep of the Jackson clan spilled on her latest conversation with her sister Janet, and if she's really preggers.

Wearing Sanjaya's ponyhawk and some dominatrix fetish gear, Janet Jackson got freaky on the Thunderdome stop of her tour last night.

FCC be damned, Janet has finally figured out how to make fans sit through her entire show.

Janet Jackson just can't seem to avoid wardrobe malfunctions.

Damita Jo arrived to the opening of the Alexander McQueen store in L.A. on Tuesday, looking like the illegitimate celebuspawn of the Pink Panther and a Druid high priestess.
If only she could cast a spell on her record sales.
