B**ch was barely alive when Control came out. Both of them can certaintly throw down I know that much. Prime Paula, J.Lo, and Britney were great to me too. I never understood the appeal of Mya, maybe a clip or two can sway my opinion but she was decent. And Beyonce, Aaliyah, and Madonna are all overrated. Why their names come up on lists of all time best dancers I have no clue.
You mean in the Pre-Control days Her dancing was everything when Control came out. OOP! for the bolded. Be prepared to face a sad "debate" with the OP of this thread. Good luck!
It is what it is. But this is why I never really like to bring Liyah's name up because if one doesn't acknowledge her wordly status as the undisputed queen of entertainment, the most talented female performer that ever lived the stans come out in droves like you're saying something really mean or derogatory against her personal character.
i just watched the Pleasure Principle video and i saw the famous backflip off the crates around the 4:20-4:30 ish mark.
that, IMO is the yardstick as far as choreography goes. it's like when Janet did that she planted a flag and said "i got this, ya'll" i've seen no one else do that PERIOD.
as far as dancing goes, i believe Janet Jackson is the HEIR APPARENT to the Sequined Glove Throne.

Why don't we just get all of the female dancers mentioned in this thread and let them duke it out on "So You Think You Can Dance?"...with Ciara vs. Janet as the last contenders.
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.
Ciara is more graceful and natural to me than Janet.
Of course all of that is choreographed, I'm not naive about that. Janet is a great dancer, but she's too mechanic, too stiff to be spontaneous,,,and thats where CiCi won her points.

It's been a while since I've seen the video (and it was always my favourite janet one, She looked so cool with the haircut, black tee and jeans etc) but ISTR the backflip being a bit ..shall we say ...Kevin Bacon-forward-somersault-in-Footloose-like (meaning not her)?

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

I always thought that a body double actually did the back flip and not Janet...

Other than that I like to see those two in a dance-off. Fuck the bullshit, let's get down to it. We shouldn't even be debating who dances better. PUT THOSE TWO ON BET DANCING.

Throw Paula Abdul (in her prime) & Debbie Allen in the mix and all the women all of you are mention would lose.
Paula taught Janet at least half of the things she knows that Ciara has copied. Debbie is almost a freaking goddess of female dancers, meaning that she would destroy Ciara & Mya without breaking a black sweat.
Not fair. Debbie is a PRO dancer. Of course she would destroy all of them.
some of yall are just hating because shes new school
ciara is BADASS you know your good ass dancer when dudes are your backup dancers
janet is badass dancer too but janet cant naturally pop and lock like ciara
ciara can dances like a dude and looks good doing it
excuse the bad weave she cant help it she from atlanta
everyone here has bad weave
[Edited 6/17/10 8:56am]
Damn she making that ass pop in them black leather tights.
The weave isn't that bad. I can work with it.
She really is a good dancer.
Ciara aint got nothing but the guys ding dongs tied up with her ho pumping, pushing, grinding in them tight short clothes. Its not sexy- it's sex. and it certainly aint dancing- you can count the number of times she lifts her feet up to do actual dance steps and most of those are laden with heavy grinding or they some ghetto dance club line dance step that she repeats over and over again.

Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint
Its like she's walking around with a cane and damn, I didn't know Janet was 20 years older than her.
B**ch was barely alive when Control came out. Both of them can certaintly throw down I know that much. Prime Paula, J.Lo, and Britney were great to me too. I never understood the appeal of Mya, maybe a clip or two can sway my opinion but she was decent. And Beyonce, Aaliyah, and Madonna are all overrated. Why their names come up on lists of all time best dancers I have no clue.
You have to admit though Aaliyah was a far better dancer than Madonna and Beyonce though.

Oh definitely. There's barely anything technical about what Beyonce does it's basicallly just ass-shaking. And I'm not trying to be mean but that's what it looks like to me half the time. Madonna is highly, highly overrated. I never been impressed by anything she did, she's nowhere near an A-class dancer. To me she's maybe a notch or two above Mariah and Whitney and that's not saying much. Aaliyah owned the both of them easily. She just isn't up there with the big dogs.
