Janet Jackson spoke about both her late father Joe and brother Michael while on stage at the Global Citizens Festival on Saturday night.
The pop icon was one of many stars who performed in Central Park on Saturday night. Others included Cardi B and Shawn Mendes.
Janet's set featured a ton of her classic hits, including "All For You" and "Alright".
While performing "Scream," her 1995 duet with Michael, Janet gave her big brother a shout out where she looked to the heavens and screamed "Let's go, Mike!"

Then, during "Together Again", images of Janet with her late father Joe appeared on the screen. "I miss you. I love you. Both of you." she said. The 52-year-old then sang lyrics from her number one hit that resonated with that moment. "What I'd give just to hold you close as on earth / In heaven we will be together, baby (together) / Together again, my baby (together again, baby)."
Janet paid tribute to Michael shortly after he passed by doing a medley of his songs at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. She also spoke kind words about Joe while accepting an award back in June.
