Janet Jackson

One of the most prominent figures in pop culture is American singer, songwriter, actress, and dancer Janet Jackson. Sister to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, has written her name across the walls of the Hall of Fame. Born in 1966 as the youngest in the famous Jackson family, Janet got an early start in the entertainment industry.

Janet Jackson grew up in a family of musicians and entertainers; her mother played the piano and clarinet, her father was the guitarist for the R&B band, the Falcons, and her brothers, the Jackson 5, a successful music group with Micheal Jackson, the lead. It seems Janet’s path in the music industry was mapped out. She had originally wanted to become an entertainment lawyer, taking a backseat in the industry. However, at 7 years old, she performed with her sisters at the MGM Casino, and from then on, it was set in stone that she was an entertainer.

Janet started her career in the industry as an actress, playing several characters over the next couple of years before her music debut. Her first role was in her family’s variety show, The Jacksons in 1976 at 10 years old. Following this, Janet starred in several shows such as the sitcom The Good Times in 1977 as Penny Gordon Woods, Jojo Ashton in A New Kind of Family, Charlene Duprey in Diff’rent Strokes, and Cleo Hewitt on the fourth season of Fame. During her appearances in these shows in the early 80s,  Janet signed a deal with a record label, kickstarting her career as a musician.
