Janet Jackson is glowing and everyone sees it.
Throughout her career, the singer, dancer, and actress has maintained a bold aesthetic, including piercings, hair dye, cropped shirts, and even military-inspired fashion.
Generations of fans often imitate Jackson’s style but never duplicate it.
Between long and curls styles to dramatic cuts like pixie, one thing that can’t be denied is Jackson’s youthful glow.
On Oct. 22, Jackson attended a Beverly Hills charity event called The Dancers Against Cancer Gala of the Stars, where her good looks stole the show.
She attended to present her longtime friend and rapper Missy Elliott with the Icon award.
The gala aims to raise funds to provide financial assistance to dancers and choreographers, whose families have been impacted by cancer.
Janet stunned on the Beverly Hilton red carpet wearing a black, long-sleeved dress with a deep neck plunge. Her hair was styled in a short brown combover with blonde highlights.
She wore a Christian Siriano gown. “When JANET calls you make her a fabulous lace gown duh!! @janetjackson in Siriano tonight looking snatched!”
Additionally, her makeup had a bronze glow. At one point, the 60-year-old took pictures sandwiched in between Queen Latifah, 56, and Elliott, 55.
The unknown person filming the trio yelled out, “Beautiful group,” seconds before the recording ended.
On her own page, Jackson posted one image and one video, adding just a kissing emoji in the caption. Fans gushed about her look in the comments.
One person said, “I think this has to be one of my favorite looks of yours this year.”
Another fan complimenting her wrote, “Wow!! now THAT’S a look!” A third person typed, “There’s something about @janetjackson beauty that hit different! I am literally stunned!.”
A fourth person singing her praises said, “Janet U are an absolute stunner!!! obsessed with all these beautiful looks and this hair… i want to stay in this janet era for awhile!!!”
In the caption, Jackson also tagged everyone on her glam team that helped pull the look together. Suzette Boozer collaborated with Ashanti Lation on styling her hair, while Dominic Ackah-Amihere did the coloring.
The “Rhythm Nation” singer debuted this new bob style when she performed at the “F1 Singapore Grand Prix” on Oct. 11.
Other celebrities who performed that night were Lana Del Rey, The Killers, JJ Lin, and Zara Larsson.
Her hair stood out against the dark denim fit that she wore. But fans got a better look of the hair when she shared a profile image with good lighting.
As it turns out, Jackson even had some input on how the hair came out.
Lation posted a video of Jackson talking about her hair. She said, “Because to me what makes it nice are the pieces.” The video jumped to Jackson continuing with her thoughts and saying, “It needs to have those pieces.”
The pieces she seems to be referring to are the layered parts of the hair that gave the bob a feathered, edgy look versus being all the same length.
Ashanti described the hair as “The Layered Razor-cut Bob” in the caption, and said they named the look “The Janet Cut.”
