With speculation growing that Janet Jackson is set to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award at this years 2015 BET Awards (confirmation pending) we have taken it upon ourselves as the supreme Janet authority here, to put together our top list of who should be included in her performance tribute.

From either being directly influenced by her, citing her as their inspiration, or having personal ties with her we have picked some choices who we think are most appropriate and have an organic connection to her. Some on our list have already paid homage to her before, but hey who is counting!?
