Her nose job may be questionable, but she is so pretty and ageless to me.... and her extension are always pretty cute.
That video was recorded this past Sunday. They next day she attended her father's funeral.
Though it is no secret Janet has always been closer to her mother Katherine. Joseph was still her dad and they had grown closer in recent years because he had gotten older and had been dealing with health issues for the last few years before passing away last week.
Some insight of Joe's feelings towards Janet:
This was posted about Janet on Joseph's website a few years ago (in 2014) about Janet: https://www.jwjackson.com/day-10-janet-jackson/
Day 10 – Janet Jackson
Janet, the youngest in the family is very very smart. She was more like a tough kid. She was real rough. I mean she was rough. What do they call them… yes … tomboy. She was a tomboy. She could whop all the girls. Really rough and really really smart. She is really easy nowadays. She has mellowed.
I always felt that she was a natural when it came to acting. She did that movie, with the late Tupac Shakur. I thought it was a very good movie, and I was very proud of her performance. As great and known as a singer as she is, I think the world has yet to recognize her extremely great talent as an actress that surpasses her singing. She wants to have a good part in a strong action movie. I can’t wait to see her in one.
She did surprise me once, picking me as her date to the premiere of the movie she did with Eddie Murphy. Now Eddie is a great friend and I consider him one of this generation’s greatest comedians, but right in the middle of watching the movie, as proud as I was of Janet, I never let her know that. She asked me what I thought and I remember telling her “You should be bigger than this. You should be the lead actor in the movie and carrying it”. I know the comment upset her, because she became quiet and I knew it. But i know her so well, that I knew she was going to channel that anger to prove that she could do better and was right. She came back even stronger with greater movies. And you have not seen the best of her yet. That’s my girl.
When I suffered 4 strokes last year, and was in the hospital recovering, only two people in my family traveled all the way to see in the hospital. My granddaughter Brandi (Jackie’s daughter) and my baby girl Janet. She sat right next to me as I lay in bed, spent time with me, talking about a lot together. It meant a lot to me. I lay there listening to her as she talked. I am happy for her and wish her nothing but the best ! I never tell you this, but I am proud of you Janet.
Video of Joe talking about Janet earlier this year in a video included within this twitter link (on his website - https://www.jwjackson.com/precious-moments-janet/):
Also some of Joe's Instagram posts about Janet posted last year when he attended her State Of The World Tour dates in Las Vegas and then Chicago:

I’m glad you’re better Orchid. There’s no one I enjoy sharing the corner with more. [emoji8]
I see. I knew of his passing just didn't realize the video was at the same time.
If Janet was one of the very few who went to see Joe in the hospital when he had a stoke, then I have new found respect for her... and a lot less respect (if that's possible) for the rest of the family.
