Halle Bailey is earning rave reviews for her performance of Janet Jackson‘s ‘Together Again’ at Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.
And the most notable nod of approval came from the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer herself.
Full story below…
22-year-old Bailey, with guitar in hand, delivered her own unique rendition of Jackson’s #1 hit from 1997’s ‘The Velvet Rope’ album on the primetime broadcast.
Following the showing, Jackson heaped praise on Bailey, telling ‘The Little Mermaid’ star “I luv it!”
Filled with gratitude, the singer replied “omg, love you so much.”

Goes to show how special Janet’s voice is. Something is missing This is cute tho
A homage is not to outdo. It’s to have fun
Agreed. It was ok but made me want to hear the real deal.
You wouldn’t know the real deal if you were clapped around the face with it like a wet fish
I know when low hanging fruit when I smell it, sour crotch lol.
🐟 *slap slap slap*
I know we like to say some artists can sing everything, but sometimes a person’s voice and styling is so unique to a song that it just doesn’t sound or feel the same when another artist sings it. I’m sure Halle will have some great songs of her own coming out after Little Mermaid.
Good stuff. Halle is gonna be a huge pop star. Just wait. Love her genuineness. The tone, like no other
Keep dreaming lol
Thanks to Halle for bringing that song to her audience. Ms. Jackson is always gracious.
Queen Janet has music for every event, demographic, age group and class.
Unlike these new age artists who can only give us music to bounce and gyrate to.
Granny Jan, do ya thang! Watch yo hips and shoulder coz you have to tell Diva what’s tomorrow weather 💅🏾Sure Jan,
Janet has never been a hater! She always supports upcoming talent . Luv her!! With that being said, Halles rendition was cute. She’s more authentic than her sister and I hate to compare….
The incorrect song is linked, but she looked great and her voice is definitely unique
Oops missed the link lol.
Janet w insurpassable beauty.
