Janet was interviewed by Octobers issue of Harper's Bazaar and she wasn't talking about the life and death of her brother Micheal, but how her last day with him. The article itself was interesting, in the way she protrayed Micheal and how she would like for him to be remembered.

the 43-year-old singer says the last time she saw Michael was May 14, just a few days before her birthday

In Janets words she expressed that they "had so much fun that day. We kept calling each other after and saying how great it was." As well as mentioning intimate details about Micheal's daughter, Paris, speaking at the memorial service.

"I was really proud," she says. "People said to me that Michael's daughter speaking really gave them a sense of how he was as a father, in her words. Paris is incredibly smart; they are all so smart. She's a sweet girl. The kids are doing well. They're with all their cousins; that family love will keep them going."

Harper's Bazaar will be out this week and there are details on how she's like Micheal to be remembered by the world.

If it was shiny, if it had any kind of bling, he loved it. It was that drummer-boy look. Do you remember that black jacket he wore for Motown's 25th anniversary? That's our mother's! He grabbed that from her closet! He loved anything that sparkled. [That last day Janet saw Michael] he had a Balmain jacket on. He had a few of them--all black, jeweled, studded, with rhinestones.

Also talking about how she'd like to be remembered to the world.

I would hope my legacy would be bringing smiles to faces. Happiness with my music. Also, to make babies. I've had so many people come up to me and say, 'My child was conceived by listening to your music

Speaking about Micheal's unique style, Janet said "If it was shiny, if it had any kind of bling, he loved it. It was that drummer-boy look. Do you remember that black jacket he wore for Motown's 25th anniversary? That's our mother's! He grabbed that from her closet! He loved anything that sparkled. [That last day Janet saw Michael] he had a Balmain jacket on. He had a few of them--all black, jeweled, studded, with rhinestones." Where Micheal got the idea to wear that one famous white glove, Janet replied "That was actually my brother Jackie's idea at home one day. He just said, 'You should wear one glove. A white glove.' And then Mike studded it all. That was it."
