Janet Jackson is bursting with so much love and joy over being a mother to 6-year-old son, Eissa, that the only thing that would make motherhood even better would be more kids!Speaking with ET's Kevin Frazier on Tuesday backstage at Madison Square Garden ahead of her "Together Again" tour stop in New York City, the «Rhythm Nation» singer couldn't contain her emotions when it came to talking about her son.«He's great. I love it,» said Jackson when asked about how motherhood's been treating her. «I love it.
I absolutely love it. I wish I had two more babies! I'm just thankful God gave me Eissa. I'm very fortunate.» It's easy to see why Jackson, who shares Eissa with ex-husband Wissam Al Mana, is filled with pure joy when talking about her son.
After all, he's already displayed deft skills when it comes to his musical abilities. Jackson shared on back in 2020 that the little fella took a big interest in making music when he was just two years old.«First he chose the violin and he loves classical music,» Jackson said at the time. "… First day of school, he took the violin to school.
Third day of school he says, 'Mama, I want to take a cello to school.' I said, 'Baby, you don't have a cello.'… He said, 'Turn my violin into a cello. Please, Mama.'"«My assistant, Teri, we were rushing for his class, and she took a straw and taped it to the bottom of the violin,» she continued.And made him a little cello," Fallon inferred. «He loved it,» Jackson commented. «He was posing with it. He took it to school.»If it seems like Jackson's ecstatic these days, it's because she is, especially with her «Together Again» tour in full effect.
