The upcoming “Janet” documentary will be airing on Life Time, and A&E networks will dive deep into the life of Janet Jackson. The main part in the trailer that has fans talking is her revealing information about her relationship with her late brother Michael Jackson.
The Jackson family has always stood by Michael’s side when he was sent to trial over child abuse allegations. After the death of the King of Pop documentaries like “leaving Netherland” began to come out trying to show evidence that he committed those allegations.
In the trailer, the interviewer asked Janet Jackson if the allegations affected her career-wise. And the star replied, “yes, guilty by association. I guess that’s what they call it right?”

When asked about that case in 2016 the megastar Janet replied by saying.
