Janet Jackson has spent over 30 years giving us the gift of music, but this year is all about giving her the best gift of her life.
Today marks the pop icon's 50th birthday, and something tells us that this is the mark to her best year yet. Along with continuing to deliver music that gets fans excited and singing into their hair brush, and putting together a world tour, Jackson is about to embark on the greatest journey she's ever been on—motherhood.
Earlier this month, E! News confirmed that the singer is pregnant and expecting her first child with hubby Wissam Al Mana. A source told E! News at the time that Janet is in her second trimester of pregnancy and that she and Al Mana have been working with a fertility specialist.
Jackson's made it no secret over the years that this is something she's wanted for quite some time.
And I think that if I'm really supposed to have kids, it will happen, if that's God's plan for me," she told Harpers Bazaar in 2009.
Jackson told Access Hollywood in 2010 at the For Colored Girls junket that people had been asking her whether the Rhythm Nation would be hearing the pitter-patter of little feet anytime soon "for a long time, for years," and once again, she directed the question to a higher power.
"You have to ask God," she smiled, somewhat coyly. "And once you ask Him, will you let me know what he says?
"I would love to, I would love to have a family," she continued, "but it's in God's hands. So if it's meant to be, it'll happen. I hope it does."
Happy birthday Janet, i pray you enjoy this new chapter of your life.......
