A lot of Janet's choreography is definitely on point but I attribute that to the choreographer. I don't feel or see that Janet has a lot of improvisational abilities so I think she relies heavily on the material given to her. I like how Jennifer can do different styles impromptu and in four inch heels. I also think she has better precision and execution.

that is debatable, or opinion. But from all the Jlos videos i have seen i haven't seen her perform anything close to what janet did in "escapade" and "nasty" or even "miss u much"... Or even "If"...


I agree! Posts like these are opinions. Although I think JLo is a better dancer and more versatile than Beyonce`, I think Janet's videos had better choreography although Tina Landon choreographed both artists' videos. I have yet to see J-Lo or even Beyonce`do what Janet did in "Alright," "Pleasure Principle" and "Rhythm Nation"

But this whole thread is nothing but opinions. That's what we're supposed to offer. I would say Janet's videos are superior and I think she was her best when with Tina. I actually don't want to see Jennifer do what Janet has done or vice versa. I think their style fits who they are. Outside of her videos and even In Living Color I've seen Jennifer dance quite a bit and that's what I'm basing my opinion on. But I'm going to try and steer clear of Janet as this thread is about Jennifer and Beyonce who while at times is fun to watch, is a bit garish, clumsy and lacks fluidity. In my opinion, of course.

J.lo dances like any other girl thats been trained in dance, nothing special, Beyonce is much more naturally talented.

And Janet is better then both of them, she has the natural ability like Beyonce and shes good at choreographed numbers like J.Lo

I think JLo wins this hands down. She is more graceful and crisp. Beyonce does her best Shakira imitation, but she's never really on beat, I noticed. She's just all over the place and kinda sloppy or heavy-handed.

Janet vs JLo is more of contest, I think. Not sure who I'd pick between those two...I think Janet has the edge 'cause she's a bit more loose.

I'm one of janet's biggest fans, but Paula is a better dancer, she was choreographer and did so much with it!

Back to the original question, definitely J Lo

J-Lo's better at straight up jazz pop choreography, Beyonce's better at spur of the moment, lose control, urban freestyle.
