Janet Jackson is the younger sister of the singing Jackson brothers, including "King of Pop" Michael Jackson. She released her first album in 1982; her career really took off with the 1986 album Control, which included the hit single "What Have You Done For Me Lately?" She quickly became a regular fixture in pop music and on MTV, known for her smartly sexy songs and high-energy dancing (the choreography in her videos was done by Paula Abdul). In 1999 she was a guest artist with Busta Rhymes on his hit "What's It Gonna Be." She ... ventured into the movies, starring with Tupac Shakur and Maya Angelou in the 1993 film Poetic Justice.

There were two main events happening in which Janet Jackson was hoping to show her breasts, the Super Bowl XXXXXXIIIIIXXIIHIMUTHERFUCKER, and the Gramm-cracker Music Awards. Her first attempt at the super bowl went quite according to plan, with one breast popping out, right on schedule. After this though, Britney was catching on. At the Music Awards, almost as Janet got to the podium to unleash her unsuspected boob to the public, Britney popped on stage this time showing BOTH BOOBS! This was a all-time new record and ... Janet was defeated.

As expected, Janet Jackson has left Virgin Records after a less than impressive stint over the last 3 years. Both 2004's Damita Joe and 2006's 20 Y.O failed to make much of a splash with fans. Janet's husband Jermaine Dupri fell out of favor at Virgin and decided to leave and bring Janet with him, and he's done just that.

While the rest of her illustrious family was making music history, Janet Jackson spent her childhood on more '70s sitcoms than McLean Stephenson. But in 1986, when even Michael's career started sliding downward, Janet hit the big time with Control. Produced and guided by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Jackson broke worldwide with the critically acclaimed Rhythm Nation 1814. A bracing combination of state-of-the-art dance pop, modern R&B, hip-hop and Adult Contemporary, it set the stage for the rest of her career. Since then, Jackson's re-sculpted physique has often earned more notice than her music, but the acid jazz-y single "Got 'Til It's Gone" shows that Janet Jackson continues to explore her musical identity while her prodigiously talented brother hides away in Neverland.
