Janet Jackson, Son Eissa’s Life at Home Revealed

Meanwhile, Janet has been shoring up her own legacy, raising $4 million from a 2021 auction of more than 800 items of clothing, accessories and memorabilia—Kim Kardashian paid $25,000 for the ensemble Janet wore in her 1993 “If” music video—and selling the New York apartment she’d owned for 25 years in 2022.

“It’s an era of legacy-building but it’s about release,” she explained to The Guardian. “Because when you’re talking about all of this, it’s been me releasing the apartment, I’ve released through the auction, wanting to share those things, letting go.”

Still among her possessions is a London address, having been co-parenting in the U.K. with Wissa since they split up not long after Eissa was born in January 2017.

Because, at the end of the day, it’s all for her son.
