The other night on Anderson Cooper 360 Janet Jackson sort of admitted she'd be joining the show after becoming flustered when Anderson Cooper asked her about it.

Ms Kaplan was known for taking the nocturnal nature of the city to heart, and was regularly seen closing down popular nightclubs like Bungalow 8 with socialites nearly a quarter her age.

She gainfully posed for photographers while she waited in the
front row before the show started, and showed no sign of the trouble that was
just minutes away.
Witnesses saw her 'slump forward' shortly after the show started and she was escorted out of her seat by security guards.
Emergency medical technicians performed CPR on Ms Kaplan before she was transported to Roosevelt Hospital and pronounced dead. Her cause of death has not been released.
