No notable lifetime achievement awards?
And OK you didn't even sound delusional until I read "flash in the pan." Honey... A thirty-year career where she is still taking home $500K a night on tour is nobody's flash in the pan.

When i say flash in the pan its meant as she was huge for an era of music only...it may have been a reach but if Whitney can still scan 2 million WW then theres no reason Janet shouldn't be album to...no artist should reach the peaks she did and not be able to be certified...considering the exposure she gets from movies and the fact that she isnt deterring away from her past hits with her current music...
I honestly dont know of her lifetime achievement awards, however you're free to post them...
and i'm not here for all that bull about the "wardrobe malfunction", that **** is a lie, she did it on purpose and it didnt go the way she wanted it to, she tried a publicity stunt with the hottest male pop artist at the time and it backfired...the media panned her ass for it and she took it like a woman...her career was damn near non-existant after Damito Jo
