She would definitely be the one to carry off the voice (I'm only speaking of singers I know), but I'm not so sure of her acting ability. I've seen her do cameos (as herself) in a couple of shows, and she wasn't bad, but this is a much bigger ask. While I agree that no one can really do Janis justice - if someone said I had to name someone, Melissa would be the one.
