Janet Jackson delivered an energetic, hits-filled New York City comeback Saturday night, headlining at the Panorama Music Festival on Randall’s Island to rave audience reviews.
“You killed #panorama yass Queen,” fan “Jojo” enthused in a tweet.
“JANET JACKSON reminded who TF she is,” tweeted another fan.
Fans tweeted that Jackson proudly announced, “I wrote my first #1 at 19 years old,” and at one point stared commandingly, and wordlessly, out over her cheering, sold-out audience.
“It’s a lot of hits, right?” the performer boasted. “There’s a lot more to come!”
It was just the distraction Jackson, 52, needed in the midst of a nasty divorce and custody battle — along with what a family source describes as “some depression” after the death of her father, Joseph, earlier this month.
“There are two things she wants to do: take care of her child and perform. This helps her get past some of her stress,” the family source said.
A Jackson family employee told The Post that the singer spent recent days preparing for the concert by “pacing and roaming around, and then she’ll go out and do a five- or six-hour workout and then she says she’s ready to work.”
When her father died, Janet’s mind was already occupied with thoughts of her brother Michael who died in June 2009, the family member said.
