When it comes to "Billboard Top Ten" but not
PCM's Top 100, the all-time winner just may be Miss Janet
Jackson. Why? Her voice is pleasant enough. Michael's younger
sister has been described as having 'the perfect background
voice.' When she's hot, she's super hot. The rest of the
time, according to our suggestion/vote/complaint dept, she's
'not.'
