It comes a week after fans slammed Janet’s performance at the festival’s Western Australian leg in Perth on November 8.
One fan told The Sunday Mail Janet’s set was a ‘disaster’. ‘Her sound was just terrible, she would be singing and then all of a sudden just do random stuff’, she said.
Video footage shows the Together Again singer sounding pitch perfect despite jumping around on stage, leaving many fans pointing out ‘obvious lip syncing’.
And while many blasted the sound quality – or the lack thereof – not everyone agreed with the harsh opinions.
‘I cant believe all of the people bagging the artists,’ wrote one woman.
‘I can’t fault them and as for Janet Jackson I think we need to remember she’s not 20-something anymore and with her choreography singing would be hard.’
Janet will perform her show once again at Blaisdell Arena on Saturday.
