“He’s our cousin,” Janet replied. “Not a lot of people know that. He’s our cousin on my mother’s side. So is Tracy Chapman.”

“So is Samuel Jackson,” she quickly added.

She then confirmed that Tracy and Stevie were her cousins, continuing that Samuel L. Jackson, “would be my cousin too, I mean he’s not my brother.”

Speaking on BBC Radio 2's 'The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show' she said that "I used to hear that Destiny's Child would run on treadmills and try and sing at the same time?"

Janet said: "Yeah, that's how you condition yourself. You run on a treadmill. Another way is a trampoline. That's how you condition singing and getting your heart rate up and being able to move and sing at the same time."

Scott then asked: "So have you been on a trampoline before go?"

Janet replied: "Yeah, I have two trampolines in my house, actually, for this purpose. Well, one is for my baby, and one is for me.
"He took the first one I got, so I had to get another for myself."

She continued: "Yeah, it's a lot of energy. And it's just back-to-back to back-to-back to back-to-back, the whole show, and it's two hours."
