50-Year-Old Janet Jackson Has Welcomed Her New Baby Boy

It’s official: Janet Jackson is a first-time mom at age 50.


It’s been — you guessed it — nine months since the youngest member of the famed Jackson clan took to Twitter to announce that she would be cancelling her Unbreakable tour to “start a family.” A month later, Entertainment Tonight reported that the singer was, indeed, expecting a child. But it wasn’t until just this past October that the singer confirmed that she and husband Wissam Al Mana were awaiting a special baby-sized arrival later this winter.

Today, Jackson’s rep confirmed to People magazine that the couple welcomed a baby boy, Eissa Al Mana, in a “stress-free healthy delivery.”

We’re so happy that mom and baby are doing well, and we can’t wait to see those first pics.
