Janet Jackson's star-studded family tree is filled with more celebrities that most are aware of.
During an appearance on "The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show," Jackson, 58, confirmed to fill-in host Scott Mills that the rumor about her being related to Stevie Wonder was true.
"He's our cousin," she said with a smile. "Not a lot of people know that. He's our cousin on my mother's side."
"That's blown my mind!" Mills replied.
However, Jackson didn't stop there. The "Feedback" singer revealed she's also related to a slew of other celebrities such as Tracy Chapman and Samuel L. Jackson, who are also her cousins.
"I never knew," Mills replied.
On social media, fans said they were surprised to learn that Jackson, who is the youngest of 10 siblings and pop star Michael Jackson, had so many famous relatives. While some already knew that she was related to Stevie Wonder, others said they had no clue that Samuel L. Jackson and Chapman were a part of the Jackson clan.
"Woah!! What a dynasty," one person wrote.
Another said, "Tracy Chapman being their cousin was definitely not in my bingo card — but wow 🤩.
A third added, "And now Samuel L. Jackson?! I need to visually see a family tree cuz WHAT?! I knew of Stevie as I got older and still shocked about that but Sam & Tracey too?? LEGACY!"
Over the years, Wonder has worked with the Jacksons on a few projects. He's credited with being a co-writer on Jermaine Jackson's song "Let's Get Serious" and he also sang alongside Michael Jackson in two duets — "Get It" and "Just Good Friends."
