The celebration featured a personalized one-tier birthday cake decorated with photos of Janet through the years and the phrase “Aged in Perfection” written in icing. She also sported a playful “Sixtylicious” sash while guests enjoyed music, dancing, and drinks with a DJ keeping the party lively.
In a fun moment during the festivities, guests began singing “Happy Birthday,” but Janet encouraged them to switch to the beloved version made famous by Stevie Wonder, who is distantly related to the Jackson family.
After the celebration, Janet expressed heartfelt gratitude online, thanking fans for the love and birthday tributes she received. She shared how touched she was by every message and reflected on feeling thankful for another year of life and the people who continue to support her. Fellow stars including Naomi Campbell, Solange Knowles, Kylie Minogue, and Teddy Riley also joined in to send birthday wishes.
As she enters a new decade, Janet Jackson continues to prove why she remains one of music’s most beloved and influential stars. Surrounded by family, lifelong friends, and devoted fans, her milestone celebration was a reminder of the lasting impact she has had both on stage and beyond. If the birthday festivities were any indication, Janet is embracing 60 with gratitude, joy, and plenty of rhythm.
