We are still REELING after the CULTURE’s BIGGEST NIGHT, ‘The BET Awards’!
This year’s FETE was hosted by ATL native, Druski! Shout out to him for being the YOUNGEST host ever!
So let’s JUMP right into the GOOD of the night!! FOR ME it was GOOD to see a well-seasoned , pioneering artist like TI open the show! It warms my heart that an ARTIST well into their career LIKE TIP still commanding the stage and STILL having HITS to back up such a storied career!
If anybody knows me or knows anything about #THEGAMUTT, you KNOW we will ALWAYS celebrate the ICON, THE EMPRESS of POP, Janet Jackson!
The GROUNDBREAKING singer, songwriter, author, producer, actress turns 60 today and she is ON THE ROAD still KILLING IT onstage as if she just came onto the SCENE and not missing a BEAT, I might add!
SIXTY and STILL selling out ARENAS– still hitting that CHOREO- STILL IN CONTROL!
Born in 1966 in Gary, Indiana, Jackson broke out with her 1986 album Control, featuring five top-10 hits, and peaked with 1989’s Rhythm Nation 1814, the only album with seven top-five Hot 100 singles. She’s earned 10 No. 1s, five Grammys, Rock Hall induction, and over 100 million records sold. Fans share glamorous photos, praise her choreography and influence on pop, while she recently honored Rhythm Nation at the Grammy Hall of Fame Gala and teased a fan treat this year.
Janet Jackson was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for Rhythm Nation 1814, alongside several seminal albums and recordings at a gala on Friday at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles.
Global icon, Janet Jackson will be celebrating her 60 birthday in a few days (May 16th) and as a surprise, big sis LaToya met up with the ‘Escapade’ singer for some pre-birthday shenanigans!
