who voted for these dancers?? because they were just not in order at all. why is diddy ” i just can’t keep it my pants” even on this list at all…

I was outraged at this list.

Ciara 25? that’s a typo right?

I agree. i think Usher should have been higher on the list instead of Chris Brown. He’s above Janet??? C’mon, he stole her moves!!

Who da fu@#$ is CHRIS BROWN??? and Usher and Hammer are definately top fivers…shiot I guess Prince gets credit for dancing in heels..

YEAH I WATCHED IT….MY FAVES ARE CIARA, CHRIS BROWN, JANET BUT AALIYAH SHOULD HAVE BEEN #1 DAMMIT!

I pretty much agree with the list, just not the order

How the hell can Ciara cum 25th??
She should be in the top 10 at least!!

How in the hell is Ciara gonna be #25 and Chris Brown is #4 WHAT?!?!?!?!?!? Aaliyah #18??? She should have been higher. Usher should have been higher. Why is Diddy even on the list!!! BET is joke.

The whole time watchin, I felt as though the whole thing was a joke. Chris Brown #4…WTF!?!? OVER JANET!?!? How much did he pay BET??? Just look at the list. Legendary, ground-breaking individuals beat out by Mr. “on and poppin.” Nothing against Chris Brown…but just another example why BET is needs to be canceled. And to think I sat and watch that garbage. Shame on me. VH-1 count down would have been more on point than that.

I just dont understand Ciara being number 25 and Missy Elliott being number 20.

Missy is a horrible dancer.

Beyonce and Chris Brown BEFORE ALVIN AILEY???? WTF?! That’s an insult to all dancers.

I agreed with the list. Not the order. Beyonce’ & Ciara should switch slots. Diddy need not be on it. I didn’t think Aaliyah was all that great of a dancer..she couldve slid back a few slots. Chris Brown & Usher should’ve swapped.

I knew things would be askew when I tuned in and saw Ciara at number 25. Some of it is accurate– such as James Brown, Michael Jackson, but the rest needs to be re-evaluated.

Ciara is probably the most versatile contemporary dancer of this time so she has got to place higher than Missy, Diddy, Kane, Bobby Brown and Beyonce and others. I can’t stand (I hate) Justin Timberlake, but I would have put him on a list before Diddy.

The Chris Brown/ Janet Jackson diss really discredits BET almost entirely. The boy can dance but I am not for sure he will have so much staying power and inspire so many people like Janet. People still look to the “Pleasure Principle” video to this day for inspiration.

Mya & Paulu Abdul are missing. BET is losing all ground as a credible source these days. I am glad they have Alvin Aliley and some other classic legitimate dancers on their list though.

I agree with James Brown as the nr 1 and michael Jackson as nr 2. But dont understand why diddy is on the list..he cant dance. the guy has got no rythm man. bless

I do not agreed with the results at all. Especially Ciara being number 25. She is an excellent dancer/performer and her choreography is always tight. Beyonce, I don’t even know why she is on the list. I do not call flopping, rolling around on the ground and flinging your arms around like a mad woman is dancing. I believe Usher, Aaliyah, Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Omarion and definately Ciara should have been in the top ten. Shakira, Big Daddy Kane and Tina Turner shouldn’t even have been on the list along with a host of other people on this list that didn’t even deserve mention.

This list is funny to me! I agree with most of it but come on now, Diddy? Danity Kane?? WTH??? I love me some Prince but since when has he been a dancer??? Why the hell aren’t Mya or Genuwine on the list?

Did they mean the best skilled dancer or the best choreographed dancer.

One is natural ability and the other is learned-big difference.

Bobby Brown can dance? Since when? and that grinding ish don’t count.

Ciara and beyonce shouldn’t be in the same category-just too different styles of dancing.

BET could have done alot better than this.

LOL! Missy was on the list. I musta took a piss break on that part. I love my fellow Va’ers. But NO! just NO. Maybe Missy’s background dancers deserved that slot.

Where are people seeing Danity Kane? Thats BIG DADDY KANE.

This is horrible. I can’t believe Fatima co-signed this trash

Haha, I agree Missy and Bobby both should have been excluded from the list as well!

are you serious… Ciara is bananas she should be number one.. the girl has moves .. SHAKIRA Beyonce.. beautiful liar explains it all but bey has major moves as well i don’t know whats wrong with the world

there is NO WAY Beyonce dance better then Ciara I sorry! I just don’t believe BET NEED TO STOP! AND THEN SHE IS BEHIND Big Daddy Kane!!

I GOT UPSET WHEN I SEEN CICI @ #25 SO I TURN OFF DA TV.SO I TURN IT BACK ON LATER,THEN MY POOR HEART DROP BEYONCE @ #8 WTF IS REALLY GOING ON.THIS WAS A BAD LIST[SMH].

I watched it,and it seem Chris put himself at high spot because he was hosting the show

JANET & MICHEAL SHOULD HAVE BEEN #1 & #2

WHEN I LOOK AT THIS LIST…….. I HAVE 2 ASK MYSELF…… WHAT THE HELL DOES “DANCING” MEAN TO BET????

THE LIST IS ALL F’D UP!!!!

At 22— You make a good point– Fatima should be ashamed, has she gotten desperate. She is so talented though.

Also, it is tacky to have Chris Brown and Omarion commentating when they themselves were in the competition. They should have used all third parties not being ranked. Since the overlooked Paula Abdul by not placing her on the list (and she is responsible for a lot of janet an j. lo’s work) they should have had her narrate this mess.

Angel I love that picture of Ciara.

Janet deserved to be in the third spot behind James Brown and Michael.

Why the FUCK is Diddy and Big Daddy Kane on the list!!!! this shitt is fixed

I thought this list was suppose to be the top 25 DANCE MOVES of all times! I guess I was wrong.

THE ONLY PEOPLE THEY GOT RIGHT IS JAMES BROWN & MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!!!!

Where is Debbie Allen? Where is Fred Astaire? His performances have been mimicked for years.

I don’t really agree with this list. Diddy is not a dancer

How in the hell does MC Hammer and James “never been buried” Brown outweigh Alvin Ailey.

Beyonce is a good performer, but she is no dancer!!!
(there is a difference)

My bad, that is Big Daddy Kane, lol that’s worse! I think BET has confused good dancers with good entertainers, there is a huge difference!

this list is RIDICULOUS…. omg

They couldn’t give Mike number one no disrespect to the late james brown but they way michael dance moves were crazy.

Yeah they hurt me putting Chris Brown at #4…he still has a lot to prove. List is all out of order but I did learn about dancers I knew nothing about. Those brothers doing the splits…OUCH!

What up complexndope!

HELL NAW!! BEYONCE DESERVED HER SLOT, HAVE U SEEN “GET ME BODIED” IF THAT AIN`T TALENT I MUST NOT KNOW WHAT IS!!

CIARA- DESERVED A WAAAYYY HIGHER RANKING THAN 25…THEY WERE TRIPPIN`

CHRIS BROWN DESERVED TO BE IN THE TOP 10 BUT I DON`T KNOW ABOUT #4

WHERE IS DEBBIE ALLEN??

JAMES BROWN&MIKE SHOULD SWITCH PLACES

JANET SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN #25

Diddy on this list? WTF! Amerie can dance better than his ass.
Ciara at number 25? WTF!
Chris Brown above Janet and Usher? Hell no!!! He should be at least 25, because the boy is doing moves we seen before.
Who decided this list, and thought it was apporpiate? It’s bullshit and they know it.
Fatima dissapointed me. A trained dancer approving this list?
BET has fallen off.

MICHEAL AND JANET SHOULD HAVE BEEN # 1 & #2.

AALIYAH SHOULD HAVE ATLEAST BEEN IN THE TOP 5. DANCING IS WHAT SHE WAS ABOUT. 18??????? WHAT THE HELL.

ANYWAY, CHRIS BROWN BEFORE USHER??????????

THEY ONLY DID THAT BECAUSE HE WAS HOSTING THAT SHYT.

SMH.

Wassup J.Lewis baby!! How was ur Easter? Work is slow today, so I’m in full post mode.

LOL after they put Diddy on the list for his Diddy Bops & “Take Thats” my homeboy & I were sure T.I was going to be in the top 15 for his Shoulder Leaning & “You Dont Know Me’ing”

diddy and missy cant even dance!!!!!!!!! and why is ciara @ #25 while shakira is @#16????????

#40.

DIDDY IS A DANCER, SO HIM BEING ON THE LIST IS NOT A PROBLEM.

AMERIE CANT DANCE.

SO THINK BEFORE YOU TYPE.

why is diddy even on teh top 25, he can’t dance!!

diddy? wtf?

See people, before they began they–both Fatima & Chris–said that the candidates were not only scored on their pure dance moves but their performance and ability to inspire. if you look at it that way the only thing that they messed up was putting Ciara at #25 and Diddy on the list at all.

At 44 (about 40), I think they know Amerie is a stiff dancer, I think he was being somewhat sarcastic.

I love AMERIE, but she is stiff. However, she looks good on stage becasue she moves and runs around and is beuatiful.

Ok lets get it stright if you didnt see the show at all. I mad that they put Ciara at number 25 too, but get over it already. Puffy, he used to dance back in the day and thats what they showed on the show, when he was dancin in his younger years. Missy is on the list because of her futurestic type of style and dance(thats what they said). Aaliyah is on there because they said she moved so naturally, plus she is dancer because she went to a performing arts school and was train in both dance and vocal(Detroit school of arts)So please dont say she was not that much of a dancer because list basically on how inivative you are as a dancer and your style. I must admit a few got snub from the list and their number spot. The reason why Beyonce is there is because of her movement in dance her style and spirit of the modern day Tina Turner. Thats why she is on the list so please dont hate on her(thanks). Prince did dancing in heels with alot of momentom so thats why they gave him a spot. Even though I dont agree with his number, his spot deals with alot of stuff, his age, his style, and his showmenship.

I’m not surprised. After seeing “Confessions from a BET Producer”, nothing about that show is shocking…

I dont agree with the list! Why in the HELL is Ciara #1???? Who’s in charge of this list? She should be well within the top 8!

Diddy, Beyonce, MIssy Elliott, Bobby Brown and Jennifer Lopez shouldn’t be on the list…in my opinion!

My bad….Why is Ciara #25! She should be well within the top 8!

WTF I don’t believe this shit, I think we could do w/ out diddy, daddy kane, Misssy, nad Mc hammer.My top 5 would consist of Michael, Janet, Prince, CiCi, and Aaliyah. Also im pissed off cuz they put Chris Brown at #4 WTF was that for. The boy va dance but he ain’t all that. Him and Ciara could have easily switch places…But Im happy to see Beyonce in the top 10!

From the clips that I saw I can’t believe Cab Calloway and the Nicholas Brothers weren’t in the top 5! I do think that Ciara should have gotten a better ranking. I know I may get alot of backlash for this but I think Ciara is a better dancer than Janet!

Any list that has Alvin Ailey at #12 and Gregory Hines at #21 is bogus. And where the f*ck did Shakira come from? Since when was she part of the BET “family”?

Let’s please have a moment of silence as we watch this awesome collabo of two of the greatest dancers of all times http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYKkoHXsj0A

this says more about the kind of people who still watch & vote for BET than anything it says about the dancers. Some of the listed dancers are simply riddiculous and the order is fucked up as hell. thanx for dumbing down a generation of viewers BET.

1-5 I SO AGREE WITH YALL WTF OUTRAGED IS THE PERFECT WORD TO DESCRIBE THIS MESS

AALIYAH SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE TOP 5 PUFFY??? WOW CAN HE DANCE WITH HIS 2 LEFT LEGS WTF

OK THE ONLY ONES ON THE LIST WHO CAN DANCE(NOT IN THIS ORDER) CIARA AALIYAH USHER MICHEAL & JANET HAMMER & JAMES BROWN…NUFF SAID

LMAOOO@ TEMPTATIONS LMAOOOOOO

Yeah, this list is bogus.. I couldn’t stop saying WTF when Aaliyah topped Tina Turner..Sorry, folks, but Aaliyah wasn’t THAT great..she was just pretty! And Ciara should have been higher, Debbie Allen and Paula Abdul should have been on the list and Chris Brown, Omarion should have been lower in the list… Beyonce not on the list at all, she really don’t do much but shake and swing the weave..

What I don’t understand is how Beyonce is higher that Tina Turner when she is a copies her moves. She shouldnt be on the list at all. She can dance, but greatest of all time? No way. Diddy one of the greatest dancers of all time? Come on people. Shakira? Don’t understand that. Ciara at 25 is crazy. Missy Elliot? BET can do better than that. BET needs to do better than that. They are losing it.

Ciara should not have been at 25 she should have at least been in the top 15. And beyonce should have not been below 15. she can dance but shes not a natural dancer. and missy, puffy, & bobby should not have been on the list at all.

Didn’t BET lose their credibility with their lists when they overlooked the conception of BET as one of the 25 moments that misshaped black america? There’s no way you can take this list seriously.

*No way should Beyonce be 13 spaces higher than Ciara
*You can’t have Aaliyah on the list and not Mya
*How you gonna have Shakira and JLo and not Paula Abdul?
*Hate all you want, Britney Spears is better than at least ten people on this list (If you are counting of all time then be for real about it.)
*The top 2 are right, but Chris Breezy over Janet is just the typical foolishness you would expect with Bet. What will happen to him once we are all finished with crumping?

I think the top five should have been like this.
1. Micheal Jackson
2. James Brown
3. Janet Jackson
4. Usher
5. Beyonce or Hammer
and then maybe Chris Brown & Ciara after Beyonce & hammer.

HAHAHAHAHAAH, WHY THE HELL IS MCHAMMER #7????????????

diddy and missy should have never made the list missy doesn’t even dance most of the time the put her head on somebody else’s body and chris brown #4 no way how is chris brown one of the greatest dancers of all time he is only 17

I love Aaliyah I think she was great at what she did but dancing was not her thing I don’t even think she should be on this list. I think Ciara should have been a little higher and Chris Brown a little lower. The Top Five should be James Brown, MJ, Usher, Hammer, and Janet Jackson.

Hell, ciara should have been in the top five. Beyonce is a great performer, but she cannot outdance Ciara. That girl invents moves every damn time she perfoms.

YALL NEED TO STOP TRIPPIN’!!!I DON’T THINK THEY PUT THIS IN ANY ORDER.

Here is my opinion and again I say my opinion….Debbie Allen should have been on there….Paula Abdul should have been on there….James Brown deserved number #1 because everyone got there moves from James Brown from Michael Jackon to Prince to the young bucks that’s coming up now so James Brown deserved to be #1….Tina Turner deserved to be on there cause for her to be pushing 70 she will shake Beyonce to shame I can’t keep up with Tina….Chris Brown I don’t care what no one says…that boy can dance his butt off…Fatima has put in work….she should have been on there…if she can teach Stevie Wonder to dance that’s a bad chick….Rosie that was joke….she is not a good chorographer….Columbus Short and Darrin DeWitt he played Lem in Soul Food and in Stompin the Yard those 2 can dance as well…..so that’s my opinion…

to #39, Get Me bodied………… You call that dancing??????? Really??????? I call that moving….to tha beat…. Its a different. Tha show i guess gave the artists props for the most “respected” moves. Like beyonce with the “uh oh” dance, or shakira with tha belly thing…… Im guessing… but me personally Ciara would have been at least in the top 10! Damn if not that at least the top 20…. Shakira shouldn’t have even been on the show. She dosen’t even appear on BET so why is she even apart of it (besides beautiful lier). I dont know whats wrong with bet.

I agree #67.

alll i can say is PISSED!!! BET I THOUGHT THEY KNEW BETTA!!!

CIARA #25 THATS JUS LIVING IN CRACK COZ I KNO SHE IS BETTA DAN HALF OF DEM IN D ;LIST. WELL ATLEAST SHE MADE D LIST AMONGST ALL DESE DAT INSPIRED HER E.G MICHEAL N JANET. I KNO SHE WOLD B HAPPY 2 GET RECOGNITION IN D SAME LIST DAT JANNET N MICHEAL IS IN!!

BUT STILL NOT HAPPY WIV BET!! (NOTICED NEYO, JT AINT ON IT) MAN FUCK BET

WHY THE HELL ISN’T DEBBIE ALLEN ON THIS LIST??? But yet they have Rosie Perez? WTF? And am I the only one that’s never seen Rosie Perez dance? I know she choreographed a few things but I’ve NEVER seen her get down.

I knew that it was time to change the channel when Diidy made the list. And Aalliyah danced waaaay better than them other females that beat her out.

This list was obviously made while someone was on the shitter.

OKAY I WAS GONNA FLIP OUT AND ACT ALL OUTRAGED BUT COME ON THIS IS BET. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT? THEY ARE CATERING TO THEIR CORE AUDIENCE WHICH ARE TEENY BOPPERS AND MOST OF THEM HAVE NO EFFIN CLUE WHO THE GREATS ARE. THEY MISSED SAMMY DAVIS JR, DEBBIE ALLEN, AND COULD HAVE PUT PAULA ABDUL IN THERE. I COULD LIST MORE BUT PPL PROBABLY WOULDNT KNOW WHO THEY WERE.
HEY BASHHHHHHHH!!!

And Ciara is a better dancer than Janet. I do love Janet also, but it’s the truth.
