Singer Janet Jackson’s music comeback has made history by taking her new album to the top of America’s Billboard 200.
Only Barbra Streisand and Madonna have more chart-toppers for a female artist, with 10 and eight, respectively.
The feat also makes Jackson only the third artist in Billboard history to score a number one in each of the last four decades, Streisand and Bruce Springsteen are the other two musicians. Thanking fans on Twitter, the singer wrote, “Never for a single moment did I ever go without your love. You made me feel wanted. I wanna (sic) tell you how important you are to me. <g data-gr-id="15">Truth is that</g> I wouldn’t be here without the love I stand on... Thank you”.
