She is the youngest child of the Jackson family and second most successful, behind her deceased brother, Michael. Her career began as a child actress, appearing television shows like "Good Times" and "Diff'rent Strokes." Her breakthrough album with with producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, "Control" was a huge success. Her follow-up to that, "Rhythm Nation 1814" was also a big success. Her last album remains in the shadow of what is now called "Nipplegate" in which a so-called "wardrobe malfunction" cased her breast to be exposed to millions of people watching the half-time show at Superbowl XXXVIII.
