Pop star Janet Jackson has shared memories of Aretha Franklin, who died Thursday after a battle with pancreatic cancer.
"She lived down the street from my family and her kids used to come over to our house to play and we'd go to hers," Jackson told iHeartRadio.
"I remember her with the red hair, the shoulder length hair, and her answering the door and this one day, in particular, I don't know why [but] she had on a white midriff and a white skirt and she opened the door and there she was, Ms. Aretha Franklin."
Jackson is one of many music artists who paid tribute to the Queen of Soul.
"It's sad, you know? She's still here with us. Her music will live on forever and what a voice and a great body of work," she said. "She inspired so many people and will continue to inspire generations to come."
