In addition to bringing out her former backup dancers to the stage, the music legend also excited fans by doing a five-song encore, an eyewitness tells ET.
Jackson -- who just gave birth to a son in January -- also posed ahead of the concert in a stunning all-black ensemble that showed off her fit physique.
