I am a bad soldier...

Perhaps it was the excitement of the new Kylie tracks, but we neglected to wish a happy birthday to one of pop's most under-rated legends...

Yes happy 51st birthday to Ms La Toya Yvonne Jackson - the only Jackson still doing anything interesting.


Poor Toy has never been granted her dues as a singer, despite having performed on Grammy-winning records (she herself is a Grammy nominated writer), and winning awards at song contests from Italy to Japan. She's placed singles in charts the world over and been a vision of beauty and style for longer than I've been alive!

Watch out for DSTP's La Toya Jackson Appreciation Week coming soon... All we ask is you leave your preconceptions at the door...

So happy 51st birthday Toy! And happy 21st to your nose, and 17th to your boobs...

"But they don't know if I'm a he or a she."

How can you not love Toy? That song went down a storm at my birthday party this year.

That is because she is the Duchess of Dance, the Pope of Pop, in fact the Queen of the Universe!
