The iconic pop star is finally sharing her story in her own words.

Just in time for the New Year, Janet has given fans probably the greatest gift – a sneak peak at her two-part documentary series, Janet Jackson., which will be aired later this month.

Fans will have to wait a few weeks before Ms. Jackson gets more honest than she's probably ever been in her career.

But the official trailer for the Lifetime special has given viewers plenty to salivate over.

The nearly four-minute teaser that was released on Saturday gave viewers glimpses of the biographical documentary that has been in the works for five years.

Featuring appearances from some famous faces like Samuel L. Jackson, Missy Elliot, Whoopi Goldberg, and Mariah Carey, the doc will follow the Rhythm Nation artist's rise to fame and some unexpected hurdles she had to overcome along the way.

A few takeaways from the trailer include her experience being raised in a large family that turned famous thanks to her brothers, her independence from her father Joe Jackson, who died in 2018, those still unclear pregnancy rumors from the '80s, and the tragic passing of her brother Michael Jackson, whom she reveals in the trailer she was closest too.

Another major scandal that will be addressed is the fallout of the 2016 Nipplegate scandal, which severely set the 55-year-old's career back.

Mark your calendars. Janet Jackson. will premiere exclusively on Lifetime January 28.
