It’s been a long journey, but Janet Jackson finally joined the pantheon of music legends at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. And let me tell you, this moment was nothing short of iconic. On Friday, March 29, in a star-studded ceremony held in New York City, Janet was celebrated for her incredible contributions to the world of music. She took the stage with grace and gratitude, making sure to acknowledge everyone who’s been a part of her remarkable journey, including her legendary family.
Janet's Induction: A Moment of Celebration
In a ceremony that will go down in history, Janet Jackson was introduced by the incredibly talented Janelle Monáe, who described Janet as the "legendary queen of black girl magic." At 52 years old, Janet now stands alongside her late brother, the one and only Michael Jackson, and the rest of the Jackson 5 as a proud member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. This isn’t just an honor for Janet; it’s a celebration of the Jackson family’s enduring legacy in music.
Janet's Tribute to Her Family
Janet began her acceptance speech by paying homage to the family that has supported her every step of the way. She expressed her gratitude to her parents, the late Joe Jackson and her mother, Katherine, as well as her siblings. "I want to begin by thanking my incredibly strong family," Janet said. "My wonderful mother and father, as well as my sisters and brothers—you guys never stopped believing in me." It’s clear that Janet’s family has been her rock, and she made sure to let them know just how much they mean to her.

She went on to share a heartfelt moment about her father, who was instrumental in her early career. "It was my father’s dream," Janet explained. "He wanted me to become this great performer. He encouraged me, he was the first one to encourage me, and music became my passion." At just 14 years old, Joe Jackson took her to a record label, which ultimately led to her being signed. In 1997, her brothers were honored for their musical contributions when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and now Janet has joined them as part of this prestigious group.
Janet's Son: The Light of Her Life
Janet also took a moment to thank her son, Eissa Al Mana, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Wissam Al Mana. "I wanna thank my baby, my beautiful son," she gushed. "He wakes me up every single morning singing his own little melodies. He’s only two, you guys. And I want you to know you are my heart. You are my life." Janet’s love for her son radiates through her words, and it’s evident that he brings immense joy to her life.
