“I don’t want to insult anyone, but I don’t see myself as an icon,” said Janet Jackson on Monday (May 26th) when she was in Las Vegas during the awarding of the American Music Awards received the prestigious Icon Award.
“My family and me, we never dreamed of becoming famous,” added the singer. “We have not been brought up like this. We have always had a special love for music, dancing and singing, and fame was simply added as the result of hard work and dedication.”
Jackson said that the history of her family of artists is primarily an American story that would not have been possible in any other country in the world. “That could only have happened in America. I only hope that I could serve other people, other artists, to be inspiration to pursue their dreams and be successful,” said the 59-year-old.
Janet Jackson shone all at the American Music Awards
She demonstrated that Janet Jackson still understands her craft despite all the humility. First she gave a really stirring performance by sexy dancers of “Someone to Call My Lover”, before the title song also sounded from the album, which contained the mega hit: “All for you”.
For the first time in ten years, Jackson appeared on a live show. Surprising: The singer wore a top when she appeared under a white bomber jacket, on which the German federal eagle was in the middle.
