Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Pop star Janet Jackson wanted to find her most avid fans - and they are apparently in Asia.
After asking fans for suggestions over her website, Jackson announced that she would launch her world tour in Singapore on February 7. She will also perform in Hong Kong on February 14.
"Your votes are helping me decide where to bring this very intimate, very different show," she said in a statement issued Monday.
The chart-topping singer and younger sister of late pop icon Michael Jackson plans to tour 35 cities in 2011 to promote her new album, which features 35 of her top hits.
Jackson last planned to tour Asia in 2009 with five concerts in Japan but canceled them, with her promoter blaming the global economic crisis.
