From Good Times To Bad: Whatever Happened To The Cast Of Good Times?

Janet Takes Off

As Janet Jackson is arguably the most well-known person to have starred on Good Times, the public paid attention to her career as he grew older. By the mid-’80s, she had already released her second album and stated that she wanted to break free of her family’s control. She subsequently released her third album, Control, which was “remarkably nervy and mature” for a teenaged Jackson.

By the ‘90s Jackson began acting again with her film debut in Poetic Justice. Jackson caused a stir in 2004 when Justin Timberlake accidentally exposed her breast during their Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime performance. Amidst continuing to work in music, Jackson recently had her first child, a son born in January 2017 with husband Wissam Al Mana.
