and yes Janet Jackson by definition is an Icon.
Ozzy as a front man is iconic on it's own right
Janet Jackson in my eyes isn't iconic, MJ is but she falls short.

You pointed out some of her iconic performances and those i agree are iconic but she herself isn't an icon imo, in this case i would call her a legend.

If im honest with you, i prefer Janet's music over Ozzy and Prince but as much as i like her i dont think she reaches Icon status like them.
