Pop superstar Janet Jackson kicked off her eagerly awaited ‘Rock Witchu Tour’ (her first in 7 years) in style yesterday at Vancouver’s GM Place.The world renown singer, journeyed through 30 (yes, 30!) of her biggest hits, as well as material from her latest effort ‘Discipline’ during the high-octane dance-orientated show. Check out what the early reviews are saying, as well as more pics from the show below:
Vancouver SunJanet Jackson’s latest choreographed concert spectacle is an aggressive reminder to the world that she is a woman who has risen above fads and scandal (who can forget the famous Superbowl wardrobe malfunction?). It is a reminder that she is a trend-setter in her own right, a true diva, and a marvelous performer. {Click to read more}The ProvinceShe has raised her own standards, downplaying the sexual angle for a more athletic show that didn’t have a musician in sight. The emphasis was on action and dance, and seemed more natural to her. Any show following Janet Jackson into GM Place will find it difficult to match her. {Click here to read more}The Globe & Mail“It was satisfying: a fun, glitzy choreographed experience worthy of a woman who’s been in show business longer than most of the people in the audience have been alive. Bravo.” {Click here to read more}

That’s what I’m talking about. I’m 18yo, and I feel like I’ve been a Janet stan all my life. 30 years in the biz?! What? I can’t wait for the Philly show. My only regret is that I’m not on the front row.

Her tours are always amazing. Her sets and costumes are always gorgeous.
You better go Janet!!!! Can’t wait til Oct. 4th when she hits Greensboro, NC!!!!
its all good being a amazing performer but what ppl want is music janet.
damn that woman can perform and “She may have sang along to backing tracks, but she didn’t lip-synch.” Rolling Stone said it she DID NOT LIP SYNCH ill even go against the backing track but no haters can speak now
This tour is gonna be off the chain. She said she is going do a medley of all her hits and she fit them all into a routine. She’s had tons of hits so it should be interesting to see what the medley performance will look like.
I can’t wait! I have tickets for Houston show next month.. Been lookin’ forward to this for a while..
Janet Shut it DOWWWWWNNNNNN!!!!! All the reviews from Vancouver have been very positive! I felt like I was there and I was at home. Can’t wait for Philly and DC…That’s right, goin to both!!! LOL
I’m brushing up on the lyric to “Don’t Stand Another Chance” “Say You Do” and “Young Love” because she’s added them to the setlist. Can’t wait for Saturday!
I ALWAYS FELT LIKE JANET JACKSON SHOULD HAVE TOURED BEFORE PUTTING OUT HER LAST TWO CDs…THAT WOULD HAVE RECONNECTED HER TO HER FANS…BUT AM SURE JANET NOT WORRIED ABOUT SELLING UNITS HER NAME IS BIG ENOUGH TO SELL CONCERT TICKETS WITHOUT A OPENING ACT…OF COURSE SHE NEVER WORRIED… JANET JUST SIT SOME WHERE AND LOOK PRETTY…ICON
Is that Anita Baker with a Patti Labelle wig wearing The Jacksons Victory tour outfit?
MSG NYC I’m coming at you!
