I love the song. I love her. She is the most beautiful woman
on this planet. She has already passed janet and beyonce as the
top diva heading into the remainder of this decade. Ciara
wouldn't have to let me hit it. I would lick her clean.

Jesus Christ, shorty is bad, and it aint even funny

i would destroy her pussy in every way but i digress

the song is crazy, and different from her last three big hits she had, a smooth midtempo ballad

Janet's former choreographer, Tina Landon, worked with Ciara for this video.

DAMN, DAMN, DAMN..... Tina Landon still got the heat

I wanna take that "back of the jacket wrapped over the shoulders/arms" look (1:34) to the busstop and see if it catches on.

I also have to give a shout-out to Barry Lather--also a former Janet choreographer (Pleasure Principle)--who is artistic director for Ciara's entire promo tour. Barry is always overlooked, but that guy has choreographed most recently for Mariah, Usher, and now Ciara. He "oversees" the entire concept. Barry is a legend in the commercial dance market. He has been around for many years and has worked on a variety of projects with many artists as well as TV and movies. I wish he would find the time to be Janet's artistic director, then let Gil just work as head choreographer.

Now this is a question I have for you all about Ciara. I saw her perform on "So You Think You Can Dance," as was underwhelmed with her dancing and vocal ability..(she lip-synched.) What I don't understand about some of you guys is that you all criticize Janet but support Ciara when Ciara is no more talented of a vocalist at least than Janet. Dancewise... I don't know. To me Janet even at the same age was more sophisticated than Ciara--, but I haven't seen this new video yet. Ciara as a dancer lacks some "polish" as was quite evident on "So You Think You Can Dance" when she and her back-up dancers could easily be compared and contrasted to the more technical dancers on that show.

Just watched the video. Ciara doesn't dance too much. She does some isolations and body rolls. I don't think this is really a major choreographic piece but more of a performance. It's a visually wonderfully video and the song is good. The choreography is understated but effective. Maybe that's what Janet needs to do?? Maybe Janet should go back to less intricate choreography with less focus on club dance.
It was a good video. I still don't think Ciara is as gifted as a dancer compared to Janet--but Ciara is good at what she does.

I just think it's strange that people think Ciara is so great when I don't see Ciara as a "vocal" talent at all even though she might be considered by some as a great dancer--and that's debatable, too.

Why do you all like Ciara but not Janet anymore?

Ciara's routines have been hotter than anything Janet has done in recent years in terms of dancing. She racked up the woman responsible for some of Janet's best choreography & is mastering Janet better than the woman herself these days. That opening mic scene shitted on anything Janet did in that $3 million "Call On Me" video. I hope this inspires Janet to step up her game, get rid of those dates recycled moves & do something impressive to show us why she's made it the last 20 years. You're right Isel, CiCi doesn't seem to have much vocal talent either...I mean she is riding on that no-talent whispering schtick Janet is on too.
