By Snubbz Staff | May 26, 2025

Janet. Ms. Jackson if you're nasty.
At 58, the pop and R&B legend just reminded the world why her name will forever echo through music history. After a seven-year break from televised performances, Janet Jackson returned to the global stage at the 2025 American Music Awards, and it was nothing short of iconic.

🏆 ICON Status: Officially Recognized

During this year’s AMAs in Las Vegas, Janet was honored with the prestigious ICON Award, celebrating her decades-long impact on music, fashion, and culture. Accepting the award in front of an emotional crowd, Jackson gave a humble, heartfelt speech:

"I don't consider myself an icon... I come from a family of music, not fame."

From Control to Rhythm Nation to All for You, Janet's influence isn't just musical—it's generational. She’s inspired everyone from Beyoncé to Normani, and her AMA recognition was long overdue.

🎤 First TV Performance in 7 Years? Worth the Wait.

Fans were treated to a stunning medley of two fan-favorites: “Someone to Call My Lover” and “All for You.”

Janet rocked the stage in a chic cropped white jacket, layered chains, and her signature baggy jeans—proving she's still got that effortless cool that defined early 2000s style. And yes, the choreography was tight. The vocals were sharp. And the crowd? Completely unglued.

It was vintage Janet with a fresh edge—exactly what fans hoped for.
