After Janet Jackson took the stage at this year’s Billboard Music Awards for her first tv performance in over nine years, she met up with Bruno Mars backstage and it looks like one of the conversations was about possibly enlisting him for her upcoming album.

Sources revealed that Bruno Mars freaked out after finding out that Janet Jackson is a fan of his work.

According to sources, they have had a small friendship between each other and now that after they met up at the Billboard Music Awards, they decided that it’s the best time to start working on music together.
