Janet Jackson Sweeps Award Show - Wins 8 Awards In One Night (1990) 

You know, people forget how BIG Janet was in her prime AND she was competing against the likes of Mariah, Whitney and Madonna herself at the time. So the fact she was getting so much acclaim and breaking records like this was HUGE. She really had to work hard to stand out like that and it paid off. Can't say that much about most artists today.

She's a female version of Michael in every sense of the word! It's mind blowing!❤❤❤

She actually won more than 8....like 15 that night....for unaired portion.....

Legendary. I can't help but notice how her entire look is similar to Selena's style. Janet was a huge inspiration to her. Legends inspire other legends.

She slipped away like "hold on nigga i gotta grab my shit, i earned this" 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️😍😍 i love her so much. She was already an icon at 24

Ive never seen a room of people just jump to their feet without even a performance given. Janet had impact! Still does to this day. Like Prince and Micheal, her music has aged like fine wine. And they all wrote their material!!!!!!!!! Amazing times!

It's crazy that this was BEFORE she actually began to really kill it. Pre-"Janet" and "Velvet Rope"

You can tell where Selena got her design ideas (on her clothes) from.

She was as big as Whitney and Maria and as big as her brother Michael Jackson awesome

Janet dominated the 90's along with Mariah Carey

Janet Jackson one of the most influential artist of all time she done it all what a true legend it all started with CONTROL!

This was when we had real music and singers. They ALL had talents and was very good speakers also. Artists only spoked well of other artists and was given respect.

So the Bey Hives can drop that shit calling Beyonce Queen.

she was not leaving without them awards! lmaoo long live janet jackson our reigning pop icon

They don't make stages like that anymore! What an entrance.

Janet Jackson was the 2nd most successful artist of the 90s

The Queen of Multiple Standing Ovations (among many other Queen titles she holds)

induct janet into the rock and roll hall of fame

No one today can get an ovation like that...

It's crazy cuz Janet was this influential well before her prime in my opinion; Velvet/All For You can be considered her prime eras where she could do no wrong!!

Its crazy how she was only partially through the Rhythm Nation era and all this excitement was already bestowed. Gotta realize no one was bringing the heat on stage as a female, not even Madonna,at this time. I think Madonna had saw her impact so quickly and thats where all of the slick shade started with her making borderline remarks.

The crowd’s reaction when she went back for her trophies.

Queen Of Pop!!!!! #janet

Janet looks so beautiful and always so humble. Love that smile :)

I love her and michael. everytime I see them together I get teary eyed. you can feel the love through the phone. lol

Janet is fairest during the rhythm nation era

I cannot understand why Janet Jackson wore that crazy haircut and had every girl wearing their hair like that for years and she only wore itone time
