Janette's facts and stats
- HRVY & Janette were awarded the earliest perfect score in Week 6 of S18 when they danced their Couple’s Choice routine. This Week 6 perfection has only been matched by Rose & Giovanni to date and Janette remains the female pro with the earliest perfect score
- In Week 2 of S14, Melvin & Janette were eliminated first after dancing a Tango; the usual dance-off had to be bypassed as Anastacia & Brendan (also in the bottom 2) could not take part due to injury. With fewer public votes, Melvin & Janette were eliminated
