The music legend sat down for a chat with The Guardian, published late Friday, when the interviewer asked her about the upcoming election and how she felt about possibly having a Black woman in the White House.
In response, JJ replies that she heard KH isn’t actually Black … and, instead she’s Indian — a claim DJT made during a disastrous conversation at the National Association of Black Journalists Annual Convention in July.
When the interviewer tells Janet that Kamala’s actually both Black and Indian, she takes it a step further .. adding, “Her father’s white. That’s what I was told. I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days. I was told that they discovered her father was white.”
JJ goes on to say she thinks there will be mayhem no matter who ends up in the White House … implying she doesn’t imagine a peaceful transition of power for this election.

If you don’t remember … back in July, Trump told a group of journalists that Harris “turned Black” for political gain — claiming she’d focused solely on her Indian heritage up to that point.
The comment caused controversy … with many slamming the comment as ignorant — while other celebs like Lil Pump backed Trump’s claim.
Worth noting … Harris’ dad is a noted Jamaican-American economist and Harris identifies as Black — it’s unclear where Jackson heard the rumor her father is white.
We’ve reached out to Jackson for clarification … so far, no word back.
