Jackson’s brother, Randy Jackson, served as producer on the series and she admitted he was very “annoying” in the advice he gave her, though she was very grateful to have his input and support.
Speaking on “The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show” on Radio 2, she said: “He really got on my nerves. He was a big, annoying brother, but he’s a man of God and it was a blessing to have him there and to bounce stuff off of and to tell me, ‘No use that, don’t use this, that’s better than this and I think people would like this best’ and so to bounce those ideas off of, it was very nice.”
The 55-year-old star found it “draining” having to speak about subjects including her failed marriages, her late brother Michael Jackson and the Justin Timberlake Super Bowl scandal, but it was ultimately beneficial.
She said: “It was hard, it was cathartic, therapeutic, but it was difficult. It was draining, but you know just had to come to work and open, completely open.”
