Don't hold back... "Someday" is toniiiight.

I thought Rebbie was like 16 when Janet was born.
I think she was born in 1950 and Jackie in 1951.

You are correct

Here's what Jermaine 's bio says Has eight children: Jermaine Jr., Autumn, Jaimy (mother: Hazel Gordy), Jeremy, Jourdyn (mother: Margaret Maldonado), Jaffar, Jermajesty (mother: Alejandra Oiaza) and Dawn (mother unknown).

Formed in 1979, Grand Rapids, Michigan, U.S.A.

Disbanded 1989 (in the groups second incarnation)

Debarge comprised of:

Bunny DeBarge (vocals)

Mark 'Marty' DeBarge (trumpet, saxophone and vocals)

James DeBarge (keyboards and vocals)

Randy DeBarge (bass and vocals)

and EIdra DeBarge (keyboards and vocals)

The DeBarge family group were formed in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1978.

The group comprised of four brothers (Eldra, Mark, James, and Randy) and one sister (Bunny).

The group were signed to Motown Records in 1979.

This occurrence transpired with the help of their two older brothers, Tommy and Bobby (both of whom were members of another Motown group called Switch).

Initially known as the DeBarges, the group's career was launched via the album 'The DeBarges' in March 1981.

By 1982, produced by Iris Gordy and Eldra DeBarge, the groups second album, entitled 'All This Love', was released, with James joining the groups ranks.

The album became their first gold-certified success, and contained the hit singles as 'I Like It,' 'Time Will Reveal,' along with the excellent title track.

The album also featured artistic input from Raymond Crossley (from the duo Nolen and Crossley).

Their third album, 'In A Special Way', contained another hit song in the form of 'Love Me in a Special Way'.



After supporting Luther Vandross on a U.S. tour in 1984, they acheived international success with their song 'Rhythm Of The Night', taken from the soundtrack to Motown's film 'The Last Dragon'.

The group also made an appearance in the movie.

DeBarge employed songwriter Diane Warren along with producers David Foster, Richard Perry, Giorgio Moroder, Paulinho Da Costa, Jeff Lorber, Jesse Johnson and Glen Ballard for the project.

The album became the group's third gold release in a row with 'Rhythm' becoming the biggest hit single of their career, reaching the number 3 slot.

A follow up single 'Who's Holding Donna Now?' was also highly successful.

Eldra DeBarge then left the group in 1986, which led to a drop in the group's popularity.

In 1987, Bunny also left the group after the remaining group members signed to the Striped Horse Records imprint.

Bunny's solo album was entitled 'In Love', with her brother, Bobby, co-penning 'Let's Spend The Night'.

Bunny also re-recorded '(Bad Boys) Dance All Night'.

Mark, Randy and James were then the only remaining members.

James was married to Janet Jackson in the mid-80's for a short spell.

Bobby and Chico DeBarge were arrested and convicted of cocaine trafficking charges in 1988.

Bobby DeBarge died on the 16th of August 1995, from the AIDS virus.

Is that her? If it is



CONFIRMED!!!!!



That's a Jackson

lilgish said:

Nope, that's Jackie with his 2 children with his wife Enid who died

missfee said:

Look at Chico ---Yes I have been listening to Chico several weeks now.
that family is so underrated. A very talented one that is.

ImLikeTheGoochLookin said:

Why is she dressed like the "Escapade" video?

If that's her kid, she would've been 1 when the Rhythm Nation album came out; therefore, she wouldn't have a reason to dress like this unless she A) Is getting ready for Halloween or B) Has absolutely NO fashion sense whatsoever.

That pic of Chico is scary, especially when he can look like this:

SynthiaRose said:

Young DeBarge also confirm most of this story.

SynthiaRose said:

It's also so rumored that either Rebbie or Jermaine was raising this child as one of their own.

Again I don't believe any of it yet!

aikam said:

Thanks for the 411.

Moonwalkbjrain said:

...and #3 (during the Control & Rhythm Nation era) Janet was trying to be a positive role-model for a little while.

Janfriend said:

Damn! Jermaine could get around like 2pac!!!

Prince!

I think that since the offspring would be a full-grown adult now, it would be okay to either confirm or deny her existance.
