A Night to Remember at the 2025 AMAs

In a dazzling celebration of music, Janet Jackson made waves at the 2025 American Music Awards held in the vibrant city of Las Vegas. The pop legend was honored with the prestigious Icon Award, marking a triumphant return to the stage for the first time in seven years.

An Iconic Performance That Left Fans Begging for More

As the lights dimmed at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas, Jackson delivered a show-stopping medley, performing her hit songs "Someone to Call My Lover" and "All for You." Dressed in a chic Vetements denim ensemble and accompanied by an electrifying live band, she showcased her iconic dance moves alongside a troupe of skilled backup dancers, captivating audiences with every beat.

Heartfelt Acceptance Speech from a True Legend

Actress Tasha Smith introduced Jackson with heartfelt admiration before presenting her the Icon Award. In her emotional acceptance speech, Jackson expressed her gratitude profoundly, saying, "I am so, so honored. I don’t consider myself an icon. My family and I never sought fame; our love for music and dance came first. I hope my story inspires others to follow their dreams. I owe everything to my incredible team, family, and fans—thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

A Legacy of Music and Inspiration

Jackson, whose last studio album "Unbreakable" was released in 2015, has been actively touring, resurrecting her classic hits while reissuing special editions of her iconic albums, including a 25th-anniversary version of "The Velvet Rope." After receiving the Icon Award at the Billboard Music Awards in 2018, she had the honor of presenting the same accolade to Mary J. Blige in 2022. Jackson's journey continues to be a beacon of inspiration in the music industry.
