Janet Jackson and Lady Gaga have reportedly been lined up to perform and mentor contestants, for an upcoming Michael Jackson themed X Factor show.

Before his death, ITV bosses were rumoured to have lined up MJ for the show himself, however now they are hoping that his sister will perform a tribute in his honour.

The Michael Jackson week will most likely take place during the show’s semi final week, as both Janet and Lady Gaga are scheduled to be in the UK at that time.
