“I dedicate ‘Go Deep’ to all my fans in Manila. It was a dream for me to start my Number Ones Up Close and Personal tour in your magical
city and country. There is a truth in the Philippines that enchants people all over the world. I can’t wait to get there and be with you,” -Janet.
February 4, 2011 was the date to remember for all Janet fans as she returned to Manila to perform in the first show of her Number Ones: Up Close and Personal Tour. It was her first time since 1994's janet Tour and fans of the singer have already shown so much love from the moment Manila was announced as the first stop. Despite having expensive ticket ranges (the ticket prices ranged from Php 3,000 to a whopping Php 25,000) the show was sold out, according to several sources.
As soon as the concert started, fans were screaming at the top of their lungs, as they were greeted by a Janet video intro that included Janet talking about the tour (as seen in her official website) and the dedication of "Go Deep" to the city of Manila. The show was a little short than 2 hours, and the set list included most of her number one singles as well as "Nothing," the soundtrack theme to her recent movie,
