Janet Jackson took to the stage of the BET Awards to bring a special message from her family following the death of her brother Michael Jackson.

"My entire family wanted to be here tonight but it was too painful," a tearful Janet tells the audience.

"To you, Michael is an icon. To us, Michael is family and he will forever live in our hearts. On behalf of my family and myself thank you for your love. Thank you for your support. We miss him so much. Thank you so much."
