It is rumored that Ciara as well as others will pay homage to the music royalty in a must see dance tribute that will be THE highlight of the night and in years. With Janet being a major influence on the industry and today’s artist, we are sure the network will bring together some of the best talent to pay tribute to the Queen. Stay tuned!
