» INFO | did you know? « Janet was born the last of nine children in Gary, Indiana to parents Joseph and Katherine Jackson. Her father was a crane operator in a steel mill; he also performed in an unsuccessful R&B band called The Falcons. Her mother was a Sears store clerk. Some reports paint Joseph as a disciplinarian and Katherine as a peace-maker. By the time she was a toddler, Janet's older brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael had already begun to perform on stage at nightclubs and theaters as the Jackson 5. In March 1969, the group signed to Motown Records, and by the end of the year, the group recorded their first of their four consecutive number-one singles, "I Want You Back". By the time the Jackson 5 had achieved success, the entire family moved to Southern California, eventually settling in a gated mansion they named Hayvenhurst in 1971. Janet was five years old by this point. Janet Jackson | Monophonic RingtonesDisplaying 1 - 16 of 16 ringtones:
» INFO | did you know? « In 1977, 11-year-old Jackson's enthusiasm for acting caught television producer Norman Lear's ear. Lear was looking for someone to reawaken one of his groundbreaking shows from TV ruin - the family sitcom Good Times. Lear cast Jackson in Good Times as an abused child named Penny. The show's star, J.J. Evans, played by Jimmie Walker, was the apple of Penny's eye on the show, a fact the character would make known every time she saw him. Jackson became one of the show's starring cast members during the 1977-1978 season, and would remain in the show until it was canceled in 1979. » INFO | did you know? « Although she was asked by her father Joseph to start a singing career, Jackson was uncomfortable with being in the recording studio, feeling she was not as talented vocally as her brothers, particularly brother Michael, who was becoming a solo pop superstar. Nonetheless, at the age of sixteen, she released her debut album simply called Janet Jackson (1982), though the teenager protested that her last name should not have been on the cover. Produced by soul singers Angela Winbush, Rene Moore and Leon Sylvers of the famed Sylvers family music group, the album reached the top ten of the Billboard R&B album charts, and spent forty-five weeks in the top fifty, but was less successful on the Billboard Pop albums chart. The album yielded three singles including her first top ten hit on the Billboard R&B charts, "Young Love", and two top twenty follow-ups, "Say You Do" and "Come Give Your Love to Me". Janet Jackson would sell over a quarter million copies by the end of it's run. According to Billboard Magazine it was the 10th biggest selling R&B album of 1983. » INFO | did you know? « In October 2005, long-standing rumours regarding Jackson having a secret daughter by her first husband, James DeBarge, resurfaced. This time, the allegations were made by 28-year-old Daryll "Young" DeBarge, James DeBarge's youngest brother. In a radio interview with New York's Hot 97 radio station, Young claimed that the child, named Renee, is eighteen and lives with Jackson's oldest sister Rebbie, and that no one except members of the Jackson family is certain of what the arrangement is between Janet, her sister, and her daughter. Janet's insistence on secrecy in all her personal affairs has only fueled the rampant speculation. On October 26, Jackson released a statement via Access Hollywood denying DeBarge's claims.
