JANET Jackson is set to reveal the truth behind her infamous Super Bowl "wardrobe malfunction" with Justin Timberlake in a new documentary.

Adding to the excitement, the Again songstress has granted access to never-before-seen home videos and the docuseries will feature interviews from her famous friends.
A&E said of the program: " has enjoyed immense success but also seen incredible tragedy.
"She has endured a tumultuous private life in the face of extraordinary public scrutiny.
"With no stone left unturned, JANET lifts the lid on her private life for the very first time and reveals the most intimate moments of the star ever caught on camera."
Janet will serve as executive producer on the documentary alongside Randy Jackson.
News of her docuseries comes weeks after for "contributing to the problem of misogyny."
Justin was criticized for past comments he made about his ex-girlfriend Britney, and the way he failed to stand up for Janet after their shocking Super Bowl 2004 performance.
The former boy band member wrote: "I understand that I fell short in these moments and in many others and benefitted from a system that condones misogyny and racism.
"I specifically want to apologize to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson both individually, because I care for and respect these women and I know I failed."
