'Today' Host Dances on Stage With Janet Jackson as a Backup Dancer

The TV personality is officially a member of Rhythm Nation.

A dream realized!

Sheinelle Jones experienced a once-in-a-lifetime moment when she danced backup on stage with the one and only Janet Jackson.

Back in October, Jones dressed up as the legendary singer-dancer, putting on a high-spirited presentation during Today's Halloween broadcast, and got the surprise of her life after meeting her inspiration on the show last year.

The Today host and lifelong fan of the "Rhythm Nation" artist was personally invited to participate in the opening weekend of Jackson's Together Again Tour, where she even joined the pop culture icon's performance as a backup dancer.

On Instagram, Today showed support for Jones, uploading a video recap of the event on April 17. The post was captioned: "An absolute SLAY. ?? After meeting her idol, Janet Jackson on TODAY last year, Sheinelle got a special invite to join Janet on stage as one of her backup dancers. 'If this is a dream, please don't wake me,' Sheinelle joked on Monday morning. Sounds like dreams do come true!"

The broadcast journalist promptly replied in the comments, writing, "SURREAL!!!!!!! ????????"
