Janet Jackson has released a message to fans online after a controversy erupted earlier this week when gossip site TMZ reported that her fans were having their Instagram accounts taken down for sharing footage from Jackson's Unbreakable Tour.

Jackson addressed the controversial in the following message posted on her Facebook page: "Hey you guys, I have been listening... I love and appreciate my fans. I want you to know that I enjoy watching the short video clips of how you are Burning It Up at the Unbreakable shows. Please keep posting them.

"My team is passionate about protecting the intellectual property we are creating for the tour and possible future projects. It was never their intention, acting on my behalf, to have social media accounts removed.

"Permitting the use of long clips does present a contractual problem for these projects. I hope you understand. I trust the fans will use their short recordings for their own memories and to share on their social media networks of choice.

"I have asked my team to change their approach and allow you to engage socially with these videos. I know I wouldn't be here without the love I stand on."
