One of the world’s most famous performers, Janet Jackson, opened the Essence Music Festival with a stirring performance of ‘The Pleasure Principle’. However, she was not alone – two additional virtual Janets appeared on stage in time with her dance moves.

She followed with performances of ‘Control’ and ‘What have you done for me lately?’, part of a mammoth two hour set full of eye-popping displays of ultra-crisp choreography and impressive visuals. Production agency Rehage Entertainment helped with the project.
