Early life[]
Jackson was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Her mother is of mixed African American, Puerto Rican descent.[2]
Acting[]
Jackson played the titular character's best friend, Niecy Jackson, on the TV show Moesha. She has also appeared in The Bernie Mac Show and My So-Called Life as Crystal. She co-starred in the Nickelodeon movie Good Burger with Kel Mitchell and Kenan Thompson. Jackson was also featured on the ABC reality series The Ex-Wives Club with Marla Maples and Angie Everhart. The show is aimed to support men and women who have recently gone through separation or divorce. In 2009, Jackson appeared in the film I Do... I Did!.

Music career[]
Jackson was a member in the short-lived pop girl group Mpulz and was included on The Princess Diaries soundtrack. The group released only one single before disbanding in 2002.
Personal life[]
Jackson was engaged to Kevin Federline, with whom she has daughter, Kori Madison Federline, and son, Kaleb Michael Jackson Federline.[3][4] The couple separated shortly before Kaleb's birth, instigated by Federline’s relationship with pop singer Britney Spears. Jackson later commented that Federline's relationship with Spears "wasn't like just breaking up a relationship. It was like breaking up a family",[5] but sustained an amicable relationship with Federline, complimenting his parenting.[6]
She has two other children with her high school ex-boyfriend: her son Donovan Antonio "Donnie" Jackson[7] and her daughter Cassalei Monique "Cassie" Jackson.[8]
