Janet Jackson Performs Made For Now With Daddy Yankee On The Tonight Show

[youtube id=”h1YRf41JfCI”]Janet Jackson debuts her single “Made For Now” with Daddy Yankee on The Tonight Show with an entourage of dancers. It was Jackson’s first late-night TV appearance in 14 years and she turned the performance into a party. The dancers hailed from the United States, Grenada, Trinidad and Ghana. Jackson explained the international vibe of her new single to iHeartRadio: 

“I’ve always loved Latin music, and obviously, the African music is there and always been an influence. Coming from what Daddy Yankee does in reggaeton, it’s inspiration. It’s reggae music, which brings you back to the African vibe, the whole bit. It was really nice working with him.”

Jackson’s State Of The World Tour is still happening and will continue until October.
