New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Back before her 1986 breakthrough, "Control," then-teenage
Janet Jackson was still mostly known as Michael's
Little Sister. That changed when
Janet released her iconic single "What Have You Done for Me Lately" in February of 1986, the song earned Jackson two Grammy nominations and a Soul
Train Music Award for Video of the Year, since then
Janet Jackson and has been a record-breaking, history setting icon who has sold over 130 million albums and singles worldwide.
Billboard's latest Hottest Hot 100 Hits book lists four of the five biggest selling singles by the Jackson family are by Janet, surprisingly not her legendary brother Michael. Her massive 1993 hit "That's the Way Love Goes" is the biggest selling single of all the Jackson family members, while her 2001 hit "All for You" is the second biggest selling single. Looks like
Janet was the one really in control.
