As we previously reported, Janet Jackson’s website had a stopwatch counting down till May 1, 6pm.

We weren’t entirely sure as to what the announcement would be, but now we know it was the release of a new video where she addresses her recent split from ex-husband Wissam Al Mana, saying “This message was supposed to be about something else, but I’ll get to that in a minute. I just want to keep it real with you guys for a second. Yes, I separated from my husband. We are in court and the rest is in God’s hands.”

The superstar also announced that she plans on continuing her tour!

“I’m so excited, you guys, so excited. I decided to change the name of the tour — State of the World Tour,” she shared. “It’s not about politics, it’s about people, the world, relationships and just love. … I cannot wait to see you on stage. September 7th.”

Tickets held for previous Unbreakabletour events that are now re-scheduled will be honored at the new dates. For more information, visit livenation.com.
