Biography:Of the many siblings of mega-star "Michael Jackson", "Michael"'s youngest sister Janet is one of the few with enough genuine talent to succeed without her family ties. "Jackson"'s fame rests largely on her successful, elaborately produced music videos, wherein the talented singer and dancer projects a more accessible, realistic image than her otherworldly brother. She is also a skilled and agreeable actress, as witness her series-TV stints on "Good Times" (1977-78), "Diff'rent Strokes" (1981-82) and "Fame" (1984). In 1993, "Janet Jackson" made her movie debut as a South Central L.A. beautician in director "John Singleton"'s "Poetic Justice" (1993); the film was no classic, but Janet dominated every scene she was in, even those shared with notorious rap artist "Tupac Shakur". ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
