Singer Janet Jackson is continuing her tour in the fall, and it includes a stop in Phoenix.

In the video, Jackson said she changed the name of her tour to "State of the World," which kicks off September 7 in Lafayette, Louisiana. It was previously called "Unbreakable."

"It's not about politics," she said. "It's about people, the world, relationships, and just love."
