Nah she’s NOT Janet’s daughter, she’s Janet’s niece! But you have to admit that she looks A LOT like her Auntie Jan’- especially during Janet’s Poetic Justice days and basically the entire 90’s era.
Her name is Stevanna Jackson and she’s actually the 24 year old daughter of Randy Jackson. Her Mom is Randy’s ex-wife, Eliza Shaffy. Stevanna is an actress who is best known for her roles on the Disney TV show, Movie Surfers, the Tracy Morgan Show, and Teen Nick’s Zoey 101 TV show. Stevanna is also a graduate of Harvard University (see pics on the next page).
Randy Jackson and Eliza Shaffy were separated when Stevanna was still a baby and they eventually got a divorce.

My uncle raised me as his child..I didn’t know my “aunt” was my mom until I was 23. My mom was 14 when she had me…family thought it “better” that my uncle and wife raise me as theirs…funny huh?
Wow Edith that is very interesting. I have a friend who went through something similar to that and she didn’t learn who she really was until about the same age as you were when you found out. Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger and I hope you’ve been able to come to terms with getting over what was probably one of the biggest shocks of your life back then. It sounds like your Mom was attempting to do what was in your best interest at the time and I’m sure that had to have been a really tough decision for her. Much respect to your ‘Dad’ and ‘Mom’ for stepping in and loving you as their own. Thanks for sharing your story with us my friend.

I think that’s Janet’s daughter her brother raised. Just my opinion which means nothing.
I think so as well…I’ve heard the rumors for decades and I remember the story where she got pregnant and had to quit the series FAME abruptly. Her mother sent her to Paris to have the child. Those Jacksons have very strong genes, and she does look like Randy, but Janet looks like her brothers and sisters in various ways….but that Steveanna looks just like Janet and that’s why I believe she and Randy are so close….it’ll all come out one day.
