It's not everyday that Janet Jackson drops by to make someone's dream come true. But on The View Tuesday, the pop star did just that. Specifically, Jackson gave co-host Sherri Shepherd a pair of tickets for her fall concert – so that Shepherd wouldn't have to sleep in the street to get some. When Jackson – clad in white –dropped by, a visibly ecstatic Shepherd jumped from her seat to embrace her pop idol. "I'm such a fan of yours," she enthused while the crowd cheered. "I have every album; I have every poster; I have all of your program books. Aside from Michael, you are my second favorite, girl."
