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.

BET!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS SOME H.A.M. MISSY IS NOT A DANCER OHHHHHHHHHH THIS HAS ME SO BLOWED. WHERE IS DEBBIE ALLEN? YOU KNOW WHAT BET IS JUST THREWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beyoncceeeeeeeeeeeee uh uh uh no no hell no so i can have some kind os attck on stage and yall gon call it krumpin den put it on the top dancer list someone need to be smacked

i know its riddiculous to get heated over anything concerning BET but how on earth is this top ten worthy?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMzoBkaFxh4

SMH@ the chicken noodle snap generation. The only two artists who are in the correct positions are James Brown (RIP) & Michael. After watching an early James Brown video you see exactly how almost all the males on this list (including MJ & CB & Usher) merely follow & apply a few additions

they might as well have put Mr. Bojangles in there as well……sigh

Ciara should have been in the top 5. AAliyah was great at what she did, but just because she danced didn;t mean she was good at it.When aaliyah danced it was like no feeling.

BIG DADDY KANE? FOR REAL? I am a fan of his rapping from back in the day, but dancing? He did very little, it was mainly Scoob and Scrap Lover.

where’s josephine baker and catherine dunham they should be listed.

I disagree with some of the list james brown, cab calloway, the nicholas brothers and michael jackson are cool.

tina turner, beyonce cool janet cool.

Didnt watch the show, but i had to laugh when i saw the list. Now im not a huge fan of Ms Ciara, but I know the chick can dance her ass off, and there is no reason why she should be at #25. Not too sure why Chris Brown is so high on the list. And Come on sure Shakira can do da damn thing when she belly dances but ive never seen her do anything else. Definately agree with 1 & 2. I dont know WHO made this order up, but im sure they were listening to some ones 13 year old who thinks great dancing is Chicken noodle soup

BET get off that shit. Missy Elliott in the top 25, are they serious? Beyonce? LMAO

I think BET gave this assignment to some interns who obviously have no clue. It seems like some of the major people who paved the way, were just randomly thrown in there.

Anyone who thinks that Chris Brown dances better than Gregory Hines and Savion needs to be pimp slapped. JMO

Why is Missy and Diddy on the list???? Did they run out of real dancers to choose from or something? SMH

my big things about it is diddy an dmissy elliot they cant dance come on now

BET HAS LOST THERE FUCKING MIND!!!!!!!!!!THATS ALL I CAN SAY!

Wow…the order of that list is completely fycked up!

I think everyone KNOWS Ciara should have been higher then number freakin 25!!!

I know some of ya’ll are gonna hate me for saying this but Ciara dances better then Janet and Aaliyah…and I LOVE LOVE LOVE me some Aaliyah. Aaliyah’s style was smooth but Ciara gets down…I mean that bytch can do it all, she is way more hardcore if you know what I mean.

Look at the music videos of Aaliyah and Ciara…its like Ciara took Aaliyah’s style and basically ran with it. Ciara is probably the closest to Aaliyah that we will ever get…

This list is damn near hilarious!

FIE ON ALL YOU STOOGES WHO PUT MJ ABOVE JAMES….MJ got his moves from james……

ALL IN ALL THERES ONE SIMPLE WAY TO SOLVE THIS….A DANCE OFF…

1) ciara against beyonce….bey has nailed the whole sexapeal and dancing thing but lets be frank…ciara would crush her in complexity alone

2) chris brown against avlin ailey…gimme a break…chis is ios your basic krumping dancer…but how many are good enough to start their own ballet company?

this list is logically askew

@ Complexndope-My easter was aight. This cold weather is pissing me off. It’s April and it’s 30 degrees outside. I hate cold weather with a passion.

They sure didn’t put Beyonce on the list, that is a sin! LOL j/k

I THINK THAT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MICHAEL JACKSON AND JAMES BROWN, THEY JUST PULLED THE REST OF THE NAMES OUT OF A HAT AN STUCK THEM WHEREVER. ITS STUPID TO HAVE A LIST THAT’S MIXED LIKE THAT. HOW CAN YOU REALLY COMPARE THOSE WITH EDUCATION,TRAINING, AND NATURAL TALENT, TO THE PEOPLE WHOSE EVERY DANCE MOVE WE’VE SEEN WAS CHOREOGRAPHED.

LMAOOO@ TEMPTATIONS LMAOOOOOO
———————————————
Im gonna have to disagree with you on the Tempts they were trendsetters in dance and everyone tried to imitate them especially their signature dance the Tempt Walk. They brothers knew how to get down.they stil are an inspiration to many performers today.

Im glad to seen the Nicholas brothers on the list. I love them. They are amazing performers. Their dance scene in Stormy Weather was pure genius on of the best dance scenes in cinema history

We all know BET is full of shit

this list was fucked up hella big

I honestly don’t believe this shit. BET look like they just threw some shit together and called a hot young star (Chris Brown, who they advertised as the host and forgot Fatima) to get some publicity. This list is too shitty.

The Temptations some pioneers but they move require no skill. I was watching they movie when I was like 10 doing them simple ass moves (how they get in the top ten). Ciara at 25 BULLSHIT. When Chris Brown said “goodies” i said they better not have her at the bottom. they suck ass for dat. I know Ciara was a lil’ ticked off. And how can the host of the show make it on da countdown. Chris shoulda been excluded and only thing he good at is crumping so they can sit back with that shit. Tina Turner, yeah she good she deserve the list. But Beyonce shoulda been under her cause she jacked Tina’s whole “everything”. And would some1 tell me why the fuck is Diddy, Prince, Missy And Bobby on the list? This shit is crazy. FUCK BET!

James Brown and Tina Turner should have been number one and two on that list. they taught everybody on that list something about commanding a stage. Hell Tina is still doing the damn thing and she is damn near 90. BET needs to get it together and do it fast.

Whoever made this list up should have heated hotdog water thrown in their face to wake they retarded ass up from that dream after they have been smoking on the pipe from the night before.

Ciara is the best female celebrity dancer out there right now.

#75.. Ciara pretty much got her moves from Janet.. I don’t think that makes her a better dancer

I am Beyonce’s biggest fan but I must say that Ciara got the dancing hands down.At least I actually can do some of Beyonce’s dances lol

JLo, Missy and Hammer shouldn’t be on this list.

Have anyone even seen Prince dance before?

I watched it and I thought the top 25 was full of shit and how come Ginuwine wasn’t on the list? Diddy before Ciara? Why was Beyonce on the top 10 and not Omarion? Chris Brown before Janet? I think they need to work on the top 25 again because the list is way out of order to me.

why is shakira on this list?????? they aint even play or say her name on bet…man fuck BET!!!!! GAWDDDDDDDDDDD STUPID HOES…THIS LIST MUST BEEN MADE BUY STEVIE WONDER OR SUMTHIN

Aaliyah is not in the top ten and Chris Brown is above Usher!?!? This list is garbage like almost everything that’s associated with BET. And Beyonce is just Tina Turner lite. Straight Garbage.

top 10..real list

10. Savion
9. Prince…this dude had his moments yall gotta admit, remember the forward moonwalk thing in Purple rain and those splits
8. gregory hines
7. Usher
6. aaliyah
5. ciara
4. mc hammer…dude could dance, yall forgetting how good he really was
3.janet jackson
2. james brown
1. michael jackson

THAT LIST IS HORRIBLE……WHO MADE IT UP?

WHY IS DIDDY IN THE LIST? HE DOESNT DANCE!!
AND WHY IS HE BEFORE CIARA?
WHY IS AALIAGH IN THE LIST, SHE DIDNT DANCE EITHER. SHE COUNTED AS SHE DANCED.
USHER IS WAYYYY AT THE TOP, THATS BOGUS.

NOPE TRY AGAIN

WHY IS USHER AFTER BEYONCE? OH MAN THIS LIST IS A HOT MESS. YOU CALL WHAT BEYONCE DOES DANCING.?

I didnt know Rosie Perez danced either? I mean when you say Best Dancers of ALLLLLL Time, I dont see why they have Jennifer Lopez in it. She should be number 25 not Ciara.

And who put the temptations?….Steve harvey must have put that vote in.!!

To 39:

So to prove a point about Beyonce’s dance talent you refer us to “Get Me Bodied.” I peeped that video a week ago and I watched it again thinking I had missed something as you speak so strongly about it. I did not miss anything and you wasted my time by having me review it again.

At what time mark are you referring to? She is moving to the beat alright and sho nuff got her steps down, but there is nothing special about it- not something I need to see again, not something I aspire to do and not something that suggests she is a best dancer of all time. To be frank, she has better moves than this in other videos.

I dont even like ciara AT ALL and it light-weight made me smile 2 see her at 25 LoL…but to be real, AINT NO WAY IN HELL SHE SHOULDA BEEN @ 25! The least she deserved was the 10 spot cuzz the gurrl can be murderous with her moves..I dont unnderstand how Beyonce (who only catches seizures on stage and calls it dancing) beat out Tina Turner AND Aaliyah AND Ciara And Rosie Perez (Ya’ll Can Say What ya Want About Rosie But If Ya’ll Saw ALL THose Episodes Of In Living Color, Ya’ll Would Know That SHE KILLZ IT WIT DANCIN! She’s Pretty Good)…That’s Ridiculous, Beyonce Can Barely Dance..She gets hours of choreography just to learn those simple as moves that we all can dO! Chris Brown beats out Ush And Janet..Now, I’m cryin tears over that shyt..

And I dont care what none of ya’ll say..I do not think that Ciara could dance better than Janet..In most of Ciara’s vidoes, I see nothing but Janet moves…Her flexibility is KRAZY but thats the only thang I can give her on Janet

WHEREEE ISS BRITNEEYY SPEARSS ??
DAMMMNNIITTT

To 108:

The reason why they think Ciara is better than Janet is because Ciara can deliver choreography AND freestyle like nobody’s business. They want to see Janet freestyle.

I love both Janet and Ciara immensely, so I am not suggesting who I think is better. However, I think Janet has influenced Ciara beyond measure. I also think Ciara has influenced Janet recently as well, which speaks to how good she really is.

JESUS WHAT DID Y’ALL EXPECT.BET CATER FOR PRE TEENS AND Y’ALL BITCHES ARE GETTIN YOUR STALE ASSED PANTIES IN A TWIST.

ITS NOT THAT SERIOUS PEOPLE.

ANYONE WITH COMMON SENSE KNOWS THAT CIARA CAN DANCE AND RUN CIRCLES AROUND BEYONCE. I DON’T CONSIDER SLIDING ON THE FLOOR AND JERKING AROUND LIKE SHE GOT A 20 INCH PENIS RAMMED INSIDE HER KITTY KAT DANCING.

AS FOR CHRIS BROWN BEING AT #4, U KNOW ITS A BELATED APRIL FOOLS JOKE GONE WRONG.

OH PLEASE I’M LMBAO

25 GREATEST DANCERS OF ALL TIMME….I DON’T THINK MANY OF U UNDERSTAND WHAT THE PHRASE “OF ALL TIME” MEANS. IF MANY OF YOU GUYS DID, I WOULDN’T BE READING YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT ABOUT CIARA BEING SO LOW ON THE LIST. SHE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THE LIST. NEITHER SHOULD OMARION, CHRIS BROWN, DIDDY, MISSY, BIG DADDY KANE, BOBBY BROWN, SHAKIRA, JLO, BEYONCE, AND MORE THAN HALF THE PEOPLE ON THE LIST. (JUST THE LISTING OF THEIR NAME UNDER THE TITLE “GREATEST OF ALL TIME” IS ABSURD). THE NAME LISTED IS NOT A COMPLETE LIST OF PEOPLE THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THE LIST…BUT THEIR NAMES STICK OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB…

I’M 26 YEARS OLD AND I YOUNG AS WELL AS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT LIST IS COMPLETE CRAP…BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM BET…HOME OF HIGHLIGHTING BLACK IGNORANCE FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE IN UPROAR ABOUT CIARA NOT BEING HIGHER ON THE LIST…DO SOME RESEARCH…I BEG!

WHY WASN’T JACKIE WILSON ON THE LIST…HE INSPIRED MICHAEL JACKSON AS WELL COUNTLESS DANCING ENTERTAINERS….IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHO JACKIE WILSON IS…MORE REASON WHY YOU SHOULD DO SOME RESEARCH…CIARA, BEYONCE, CHRIS BROWN…HAVE YET TO IMPRESS ME WITH THEIR BODY MOVEMENT WHICH MANY PEOPLE WHO COMMENTED NOT ONLY CONSIDER DANCING, BUT FEEL THEY BELONG ON THE 25 GREATEST DANCERS OF ALL TIMES LIST…AGAIN I ASK YOU TO THINK ABOUT WHAT “GREATEST OF ALL TIME” MEANS AS WELL RESEARCH….

PEACE

Imma be for real. If half of y’ all were asked to list ur top 15, not many would’ve thought of James Brown as number 1. If James Brown were alive, he’ll be like number 15 or sumthin. Michael Jackson should be number 1, and Janet close by. Ciara is def, top 5 to me. Chris Brown and Beyonce are top 10 tho. But Shakira aint black, so why she there? if u have Shakira, then put some white ppl on it lol. I mean Britney Spears can dance better than Diddy. Diddy can dance, but top dancer of ALL TIME?? come on, if this was top 100, then Diddy would be number 90 or sumthin. And since when was Prince known for dancing?? why is he number 6. this list is so wrong. Ciara, at 25, C’mon! Triflin nonsense

OMG I don’t even know where 2 start. This shitlist was atrocious!!! Ciara @ #25??!! Get the fuck outta here! She was robbed!!! How in the blue lagoon hell did chris brown get rated b4 ursher, aaliyah, fuckin alvin ailey @ #12??!!! Like seriously is this shit apart of Punk’d?

This whole list is fucked up!!! They must been drunk when they put this 2gether!!

25 GREATEST DANCERS OF ALL TIMME….I DON’T THINK MANY OF U UNDERSTAND WHAT THE PHRASE “OF ALL TIME” MEANS. IF MANY OF YOU GUYS DID, I WOULDN’T BE READING YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT ABOUT CIARA BEING SO LOW ON THE LIST. SHE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THE LIST. NEITHER SHOULD OMARION, CHRIS BROWN, DIDDY, MISSY, BIG DADDY KANE, BOBBY BROWN, SHAKIRA, JLO, BEYONCE, AND MORE THAN HALF THE PEOPLE ON THE LIST. (JUST THE LISTING OF THEIR NAME UNDER THE TITLE “GREATEST OF ALL TIME” IS ABSURD). THE NAME LISTED IS NOT A COMPLETE LIST OF PEOPLE THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THE LIST…BUT THEIR NAMES STICK OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB…

I’M 26 YEARS OLD AND I YOUNG AS WELL AS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT LIST IS COMPLETE CRAP…BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM BET…HOME OF HIGHLIGHTING BLACK IGNORANCE FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE IN UPROAR ABOUT CIARA NOT BEING HIGHER ON THE LIST…DO SOME RESEARCH…I BEG!

WHY WASN’T JACKIE WILSON ON THE LIST…HE INSPIRED MICHAEL JACKSON AS WELL COUNTLESS DANCING ENTERTAINERS….IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHO JACKIE WILSON IS…MORE REASON WHY YOU SHOULD DO SOME RESEARCH…CIARA, BEYONCE, CHRIS BROWN…HAVE YET TO IMPRESS ME WITH THEIR BODY MOVEMENT WHICH MANY PEOPLE WHO COMMENTED NOT ONLY CONSIDER DANCING, BUT FEEL THEY BELONG ON THE 25 GREATEST DANCERS OF ALL TIMES LIST…AGAIN I ASK YOU TO THINK ABOUT WHAT “GREATEST OF ALL TIME” MEANS AS WELL RESEARCH….

ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR DAY!!!

What the hell is Diddy doing on this list????? LOLOLOLOL! and Beyonce don’t belong on there either! Maya dances better than her. Why don’t they just put Cassie on there?

This list is some bullshit. The only thing right about it is the top 2 and I would switch them around and make MJ #1. I would be pissed off but this is BET. They stay smokin that good shit.

OH MY F***ING GOSH WTF is this ?!? i am pissed off to high heaven !!! im a dancer and im outraged im PISSED beyond belife ! CIARA @ 25 !!! BET needs to be cut off the air RIGHT NOW ! this is riddiculas ! Diddy ?!? DIDDY ?!? WHY in hell is he on the list ?! beyonce @ #8 ?! are u bastards smoking crack !?! CHRIS FU**ING BROWN @ # 4 IS this a Joke !?!

CIARA @ 25 THATS WHEN ITS SHOULD HAVE CAME TO A COMPLETE HAULT

fatima why are u hosting this bull ish u should be ashamed !

That little white girl that dances in Missy videos should be on the list. LOL. Missy can’t dance!

Ciara, aaliyah and missy are ALL outta place…i mean wtf? and diddy? sumbody smoked a pipe puttin him on…so they sayin ciara cant dance betta than diddy? lmao….slap sumbody!!!

AND WHERE IN THE FIREING HELL IS Justin Timberlake THIS LIST IS PISSING ME OPFF IM SOOOOO MADD

^^ that list makes my head hurt

*popping pills*

lmao at bet. wtf kinda list is this? after i saw ciara at 25 with diddy at 24 and beyonce in the top 10 i stopped looking. hahahahaha!!!

like i said this list was made by a blind man

Its a few people that shouldn’t even be on the list…Why is Ciara #25…that doesn’t make any sense to me…Aaliyah is #19…please, she should be in the top 10….I love Prince…but I never knew that he dance that much. This list is ass…

How the hell is diddy on the list? Why is Ciara ONLY #25? Gregory Hines, Cab Calloway should have been ALOT higher…. Chris Brown @ #4? A little to high of a ranking but he does give all the men in R&B the business… order is FUCKED up… besides the top 3

SOMEBODY IS GOING TO HELL WITH GASOLINE DRAWERS ON

THIS LIST IS A FARCE.

To 112 & 115 Noname:

I see where you are coming from as their is oversight (perhaps intentional oversight) in regard to many of the legends. However, this is BET, which also has to take into consideration current artists and their impacts, which they did. BET is a pop culture icon- not just a history icon (ie The History Channel).

Once you understand the difficult task at hand, it becomes obvious why certain recent names are included. However, the order is still wrong.

Of course Ciara belongs on this list because she brings her on style in the contemporary and we can trace her work back to other greats For example, we see M. Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” and J. Jackson’s “Pleasure Principle” in Ciara’s “Promise.” So if Michael inspired Ciara then lets talk about those who inspired Michael– James Brown, The Nicholas Brothers, maybe Sammy Davis Jr. and possibly Alvin Ailey. So these contemporary artists make sense as they show a full circle of inspiration and how dance transcends boundaries such as generation and time.

However, Ciara still should have been ranked higher simply because she is better than most of her counterparts. Her counterparts in this list are Beyonce, Omarion, Usher, Chris Brown, and maybe J. Lo.

Get it?

lil chris brown should not be so close to numero uno. diddy shouldnt even be in the top 500. usher deserves a lil better than 11. hell, him and chris should switch. i feel omarion deserves a lil better also. how the hell is diddy better than ciara though?

damn where Re-Run and the electric bugaloo(sp) @ on this list omg..i really dont see much of the ol’ school people on here like people of the new jack swing..disgrace…n fatima of all people?????

O.K. Time the hell out! How can Savion Glover, who was trained by Gregory Hines and some of the greatest tap dancers of our time fall UNDER MC Hammers too Legit to Quit and Chris Browns asses? How can Janet “Ms. Jackson if ya nasty” be under Chris Brown? Yes, where are Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly? We are being hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray! I demand a recount! LMAO! by the way…ROOTS IS ON THIS WEEK YA’LL!

Where’s Justin?
Where’s Mr. Daren Dance grooves, lol?
Shit K-Fed?

I mean they all dance better than Diddy, lol

OMG im still appualed by this im so upset !!!

I TOLD BET TO STOP SMOKING THAT CRACK..NOW I KNOW WHY I STOPPED WATCHING BET. CIARA # 25..I KNOW SHE’S YOUNG AND JUST STARTING OUT, BUT DAMMM SHE CAN OUT DANCE ANY OF THEM LADIES ON THAT LIST..

you know what, they should have a seperate list for the top 25 dancers of ALL TIME and the top 25 dancers in the spotlight right now. seing chris brown and james brown on the same list doesnt even look right. we all know who the hottest dancers now got their moves from, right? even ciara ad omarion and beyonce and them know they dont deserve to be on such a list.

tina turner shouldda been no. 1 or 2… all them names coming after stole their moves - hold up - oh i went back up to see where michael jackson was - all the rest is bull… shakira & ciara way too low…

wtf is diddy doing on the list - complete garbage…

44, shh! Just hush! The fool can’t dance to save his life. So before you call anybody out, you might want to think before you type.

see the bull i’m talking about and the overratedness of beyonce. this is simply managers calling in and making this list and the people with the greatest influence got the high ranking. just at the case with thise ‘most beautiful’ lists that magazines put out.

as for ciara. ciara fans need to fall back and concede that janet is better simply out of respect for the elders. we all know the only thing they have in common is that they’re both brown skin with black hair and they dance. we all know ciara bodies janet even in janet’s prime. and janet could deliver a routine like the ‘goodies’ routine to save her life. but like i said respect your elders and move on from that argument.

i dont care what any one says u but ci ci up agianst any of the females she would dance circles around all of them yes except janet ! although i think she a better dance but still janet is janet she paved the ways for ci ci but all this talk about aaliyah shes not even that great of a dancer watch her videos then watch ciaras a whole nother level … ci ci is an awsome dancer she taking things to a whole anohter level and its ashame B.E.T. is disrespecting this TALented youn lady in such a manor they need to write her an apology letter

WELL I PERSONALLY LIKE THE LIST..I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO THE NICHOLAS BROTHERS ARE.

BUT I PERSONALLY THINK THAT CHRIS BROWN SHOULD BE ABOVE USHER..NOT JANET.

I agree with #7! The video Get Me Bodied is not real dancing! Anybody can do an old skool dance, pat their weave and cool off! LOL! Be for real! Beyonce is not a great dancer and she should not have been listed as being a better dancer than Ciara! Ciara does real dances!

Beyonce did make the list, my bad. Another person who posted a comment said she didn’t, got to read for myself sometimes.

oh i forgot where’s Britney??? but Tiner Turner??? The Temptations??? what the…?

I saw the show but I only saw the top 14 when they started with Bobby Brown. That fool aint no great dancer at all. He danced in the 90’s, so what? Big Daddy Kane, Diddy, and MCHammer are not remembered dancers at all. Diddy looks like a jackass when he dances and the rest of those male rappers and singers had them silly dances we remember from back in the day.

Rosie Perez??? I didn’t even know she danced all I knew was she was a whore in White Boy can’t Jump.

I love the way Shakira moves, but what the hell was she doing on the list?

Missy Elliot aint no damn dancer!

Chris Brown at number 4? I was thinking the exact same thing, how the hell did he beat Janet Jackson and even Ciara on the countdown.

Ciara at least should’ve been number 10. Why the hell was she at the bottom of the list? She’s the most skilled female dancer of today. Her ass is moving better than Janet right now!

Aaliyah definitely should’ve been in the top 10, she moved like no one else in R&B music and had her own style.

And don’t even get me started on Beyawwnce! That made me mad knowing she was as high on the list as she was. People always kiss her ass. On the show they say she was the hardest working woman in music right now, no she’s the most desperate spotlight hogger of our time. She don’t do nothing we haven’t seen in the clubs since 1999. Shake your ass and nappy weave, and roll all over the place like your having a seizure or an orgasm.

YOu see if you were to ask one of the higher ups at bet they would tell you that in no way were these names in chronological order of least talented to most talented. They just make it look like that. They just put a whole bunch of notable dancers on a list. I do feel that they should of put some kind of order to it. Chris was acting that way because they aren’t watching the entire show like the viewers they are just doing improv from a screen. They are the hosts having to entertain so i’m pretty sure when they asked Chris to do the Michael Jackson thing on the spot it kind of through him for a loop too

who voted on this? MC Hammer was a bad man….no way Big Daddy Kane (a rapper) is better than Ciara…and how Chris Brown gonna beat Usher and Janet….i’ll take that list with a grain of salt!

This is list wack as HELL there are a lot of errors… to name a few 1.bee is not a better than aaliyah, shakira, or ciara. 2. Diddy shouldn’t be on the listed… you know what I’m about to stop right there. Was this listed made in Florida if so we need to re-vote ASAP

Ahhhhhhhhhhh hah just a matter of time someone was going to take my CL alias,corny fuckssssssssssssssssssss LOL.Time for a name switch I retire that name you hoes want some attention.

Just like everyone else, why is Diddy on here?They could of placed Alvin in the top 10!But theres toooooo many questions about this list that need to be answer because I don’t get it.Missy of all people!??!?!?!?!?!Wheres my girl Mya, damn she better dancer than Missy.Whats Shakira doing on there?She don’t dance for real,neither does Beyonce.

This listed is crazy

#75… Girl Please! Poppin your booty in every video doesn’t make you skilled dancer. And that is the gist of Ciara as a performer. You can’t compare Ciara to Janet. How old are you?

how the fuck is beyonce before ciara i think even j-lo shouldve been before her and missy elliot wtf half these people arent even really considered good dancers at all whoever put that list together mustve been on crack or forgot thier meds or somthing.

where’s aaliyah? she was a FABULOUS dancer.

how did shakira make the list? she doesnt even get played on bet.

I am not the biggest ciara fan but the girl is a phenomenal dancer. Beyonce just girates all over the place.

WOW… HOW did Alvin Ailey come between Usher & Jennifer Lopez???

They can dance but NOT like Alvin Ailey, he was in his own league.

Who is responsible for coming up with this list??

And Why ain’t Fatima Robinson on it?????????

Is this for entertainers ONLY? Cuz i wouldn’t consider Rosie Perez one…

……i’m just sooooo CONFUSED…….

All I know is that they forgot all about Ginuwine. I know we hadn’t heard from him in a while but damn.

Why did they place Gregory Hines at 21? He was a great dancer too. What about Sammy Davis Jr? Josephine Baker? Katherine Dunham? Alvin Ailey? Geoffrey Holder? I mean if they put the Nicholas Brothers there, they could have put the other old schoolers up too. Wasn’t the list for the greatest dancers of ALL TIME?

I do agree with you too @ #74,now that I think about it. The majority of the core audience has no idea of who those people are. Disregard my angst.

Oops..I didn’t mean to put A. Ailey there. I meant Bill Bojangles Robinson.

the list is bull****!!
chris brown before janet and usher? that’s unbelievable!!
and why the hell is Diddy on the list? he can’t dance! ciara at #25? wow bet, you lost all respect!

I do not agree with Ciara being number 25. She is very innovative, she should have been above Jennifer Lopez, Diddy, hell half the list.

wow bet really messed up this time!!!4 real n if i cud go on 106 n show how mad i am……..that’ill be great!!! but its just a damn list….maybe if a proper network like MTV made a list like this it wud be much beta n sensible!!!!!!

am talkin bout ciara #25 wtf wtf n wtf n did i meantion wtf
wait,,,,if diddy made the list wot about pharell,snoop doogg….those other dancin rappers.??

if beyonce is #9 wot bout christina millian?

if chrisbrown made #4 wat bout justin timbalake(aint even in d list)???????????? all i can say is BET MESSED UP…………….!!

What Diddy does is not dancing! and how can you have a group listed and not have New Edition? Then go on and not have Mya, and Ginuine, but have Missy and Diddy!?!?!? This is how Black folk end up not supporting BET type shows, due to them being inaccurate and biased to popularity!

The list is lies and bullshit! For whoever said Janet should have been number 25 is clearly dumb and has no say what so ever! I cant believe that shakira was on the list that chick on shakes her ass EVERY video and diddy? smh! Umm Michael=1 Janet=2 Aaliyah=3 James Brown=4 and the rest can be voted upon but if we can put a list together how can we leave brandy off she shouldve atleast got the 24th spot and mya and amerie? come on now lets be real!

WHERE IS MYA? BET has no respect. HOW MYA WASN’T ON THAT LIST? She should have been either where JLO was or Shakia. And Ciara’s spot had to be a typo. She shouldn’t have started that list off Missy should have. Aaliyah and Usher should have been in the top 10.

My only problem with the list was that Ciara was at no. 25 and I felt her and Beyonce should’ve traded spots. I’m not feeling how they put Chris Brown so high up he should’ve been top 15. WTF @ Diddy and Missy? Why are they even being considered dancers?

This is the way the list should have been….
Debbie Allen, Paula Abdul, Micheal and Janet Jackson, James Brown, Gregory Hines, The Nicholas Brothas, Alvin Ally,Tina Turner, Jackie Wilson, Cab Calloway, Josephine Baker, Prince, Sammy Davis Jr., Fatima Robinson, Big Lez….Savion Glover, MC Hammer sorry you gots to give him his props…that man would dance until he got on stage until he got off and no one can’t say that back in the day peeps wasn’t trying to get his moves down….lol Darrin DeWitt Henson cause that brotha made it possible for Justin Timberlake and Brittany Spears dancing…on beat….lol Ciara has to be on there…cause she is a great dancer, Chris Brown has to be on there cause he’s a great dancer! I know I’m leaving some people out….but all the people that was listed all deserve to be on the countdown cause they either have the natural talent for dance or they studied dance…..That’s the difference you are either a skilled dancer or you have the natural talent…people like Omarion, Usher, Marques Houston, Ne-Yo Aaliyah….they can just dance and follow routines real well…Beyonce I’m sorry she don’t dance she just shake and pop it…..that’s it..

People under the age of 21 must have voted/created this piece of s**t…There is NO way that Chris Brown should be that high up on the list. He hasn’t paid enough dues! Number 4?! COME ON!!! How are Alvin Ailey and Gregory Hines so far down on the list? That show needs to be pulled off the air.

They are not popular or new to BET’s “mature” viewers.
BET is Coon Central.

Come on now,Ciara #25. & How did Beyonce even get on the list.

@44

He was saying that Amerie and Diddy can’t dance. And uhh…neither can Beyawnce her ass dances like a retarded monkey.

#1.Ciara dances her damn heart out! and BET put her ass at number 25?????????? If this was a singing list then I’d accept that but this girl is the queen of dancing today and both her albums have been successful based just on that.

#2. WHAT IN THE DAMMIT ALL HELL IS CHRIS “F-CKING” BROWN AT number 4???????? He can dance and everything but……he has only had one album….4 or so videos and the dancing in them sure didn’t wow me at all. BET be riding Chris’ coattails to damn often just to please these little chillren who be watchin this wack network.

#3. DIDDY, BIG DADDY KANE, MISSY, BEYONCE????????? Not naw one of them can dance…Diddy, Missy and Beyonce especially. Did you see Diddy dancing in that “Come To Me” video….Get the f-ck outta here!! He looked a damn mess. Beyonce knows only one dance and that is that booty bounce thing and hell! Me and all the other women on CL can do dat!

BET……YOU HAVE BEEN CANCELED!!!

Hell naw! I went back and looked at the list again Beyonce is listed before a man who has a F’n dance school named after him. IN the famous words of Remy MA Whateva, Whateva

BEYONCE SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ON THE LIST PERIOD!! THE ONLY THING SHE DOES IS BOUNCE HER ASS UP AND DOWN AND THEN A BUNCH OF CHOREOGRAPHED MOVES. IT’S NOT LIKE SHE CAN GET OUT THERE AND JUST TEAR THE FLOOR UP AND THE DROP OF A HAT. DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW CHRIS BROWN WAS NUMBER 4 EITHER! HIS MOVES, IN MY OPINION, ARE SLOPPY AND NEED TO BE TIGHTENED UP. OMARION DANCES BETTER THAN HIM BUT I DIDN’T SEE HIM OR HIS SLICKED-DOWN BABY HAIR ON THE LIST!

BEYONCE SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN ON THE LIST PERIOD!! THE ONLY THING SHE DOES IS BOUNCE HER ASS UP AND DOWN AND THEN A BUNCH OF CHOREOGRAPHED MOVES.

HIS MOVES, IN MY OPINION, ARE SLOPPY AND NEED TO BE TIGHTENED UP. OMARION AND HIS SLICKED-DOWN BABY HAIR DANCES BETTER THAN HIM!

That was NOT a greatest of ALL time list, SORRY…Diddy and MIssy were a waste of votes…Katherine Dunham could have easily been on there…People that paved the way for dancers now..I am ashamed of BET, man…WOW.

hey hey……..janet is 40 dat bitch mite aswell give up music coz with her recent album flop…
20 yrs of bull shit!!!

i dnt care wat y’all say but she cant touch ciara not any more. y’all forgetiing d age difference…..dat jj has been in for a lng time n ci jus started(age 18) n already 3 yrs she’s threatened a lot of artist such as miss bee, janet…n r.ip aaliyah!!!!
give ciara d amount of time janet has been in….ibet y’all gon compare her to james brown!!!!lol

LMAO @ #107 TheBoyAboutTown wasting their precious time going back to review Get Me Bodied. #39 definitely doesn’t know what talent is. And I thought that as soon as I read their comment.

LMFAO @ the Temptations, Bobby Brown and Beyonce being on the list.

Why isn’t Golden Brooks on this list? She’s a classically trained dancer, both studying and teaching ballet, jazz and modern dance. Where’s Martin Lawrence on the list? And then there’s Snoop or Bow Wow… didn’t one of them invent the chicken toe dance? And, Debbie Allen! Shaquille Oneil turned it out at the All-Star game this year! Taylor Hicks? And, Beyonce’ is a much better dancer than Janet! Also, Mya should be somewhere in the top 10!

One more…Emmit Smith!

This is completly wrong! Why are they gonna call it a countdown, they just randomly threw the people on there. Ciara shouldn’t be 25, along with alot of other completly off orders. BET sucks now, I watch MTV more than BET, and I try not to watch MTV, cuz their racist. Can’t win for loosing.

This countdown did Janet wrong. She deserves to be either 2 or 3. They also Ciara wrong. I think they offered Chris Brown a top 5 spot if he hosted the show.

@176

LoL, you need to stop!

big daddy kane?

They completely played my girl Ciara for putting her at #25.The order is all fucked up plus they have a few that just should not be on the list.Smh

@176 Beyonce learned what she knows from Janet if you ask her she would say the same. Get right.

I think that Chris deserved to be high in the list as that boy can dance and his dance moves dont look overly chreographed like some but wtf is Diddy in it for and i admit miss Janet should of bin infront of Chris and i love beyonce but y the hell is the girl so high up in the list above the likes of Aaliyah, Usher and Ciara, Ciara ass should be in the top 10 atleast the rite people r in the list but in a wrong order.

Like a lot of u said I agree w/ the names on the list just not the order! BET is a joke so I’m really not surprised by any of this…great concept though! Its like they tried 2 appeal 2 the younger audience by mixing the old in w/ the new! However, I think they lefy some key people off the list like Debbie Allen, judith jameson, and (I know a lot of yall don’t agree w/ these but u can’t front on their dancing skills) Sisqo and Mya can definitely tear the dance floor up especially Sisqo cause homeboy be dancing his ass of and singing live and actually sound good soo… They need to get it together and Big Daddy can dance but Scoob and Scrap used to do the damn thing!

174… t’mica…what grade are you in??????? you sound so damn annoying by the way you write….janet been doing this longer than cici and age aint nothin but a numba honey janet aint crippled yet, she 40 and still makin men go crayz, cici is jus a tease, jus cuz her album aint do so good dont mean the people u love dont love janet..hav u 4got janet is cici’s influence…u cant like one n not the otha

Coming from someone who absolutely LOVES Chris Brown… he shouldnt have had the #4 spot. Maybe they gave him a high spot cuz he hosted the show. The list is terrible.Ya’ll know BET is messed up.

I really was disappointed with the list…I was upset about Ciara being number 25. I know she isn’t the BEST dancer but she shouldn’t have been at the very bottom. She is a good dancer and it was just hard to see someone as Diddy being # 24 or even being considered on the list….just my opinion though

wait, how the hell did missy make it on that list? wtf

CICI NUM. 25 NAWWWWW. THEY PLAY’N RIGHT?

WTF WHWERE THE HELL IS MYA? PINK? BRITNEY? PAULA? Now i know why i didn’t watch. What will happen to Chris Breezy when crumpin’ is done and over wit? hmm mm ok. They need to make this list longer and revise this fucked up list. pronto

i mean honestly, why isnt janet right behind michael at #3? obviously, some of the names were misplaced- along with diddy bein placed on the list at all.

and bet wonders why i switched to tv-1

since when did p diddy become a dancer…what a joke and putting chris brown over janet is so foul bet needs to be taken off forever because that is the dumbest sh** i ever heard lol

Ciara is #25 but Beyonce is #9? What a joke!

This is why I watch VH1. I’m STILL shaking my head at this list.

Chris Brown is a good dancer!!! He probably didnt deserve to beat janet but he did deserve the top5… I also believe ciara should have been in the top 10… Why n da hell was diddy and missy on there???

Are you all kidding me????? Janet Jackson taught all these fools how to dance- Ciara, Beyonce, Usher, Chris Brown. The only person that should be ahead of her is her brother. Period!!!!!

They all emulate her. Every video out now has a Janet
Jackson influence, especially the female artists. Yaw’ll better recognize!!!!!!

And I just cannot believe Diddy is on the countdown! LOL! Who put this countdown together? Big Daddy Kane? LOL!!!! This has got to be for comedy.

Come on where is Ginuwine?? Should have at least been in top 5 ,Chris Brown has only did like 1 CD. Also any person with a brain, will say he can and will out dance Missy, Big Daddy Kane, Old-butt Bobby Brown. It’s GINUWINE all day

And even though they put Alvin Ailey, they forgot Judith Jamison! Debbie Allen definately needs to be on there as well as Paula Abdul. And anyone born before 1980 knows that Puffy got his start in the music bis as a dancer - I don’t know how influential he was but he used to do his thing. And how bout Rock Steady Crew?!? (since crunk is just spastic break dancing imo)

To 200 ^^^^ I use to make sandwiches for a living– that does not mean I was any good at it.

LMAO@176 MEATLOAF U ARE THE BEST LOL

IM LOVING THE COMMENTS KEEP THEM COMING!!

LMAO TO YOU DUMB BROADS DEFENDING CHRIS’ SPOT ON THE LIST! DAT NIGGA CAN DANCE BUT HE DON’T DESERVE TO BE ON THERE WITH THAT WACK CD OF HIS!

Oh hell no… Chris Brown top 5… Ciara #25.. OH no i think that BET should consider more choreographers n natural dancers then the best routines into the mix…
Like Debbie Allen,

MYA should have made it..and Paula Abdul..

And what I think the most upset of all is that
Lengendary Kathaine Dunham didn’t make it

I waz glad that the Nicholas Bros made top 5 and Cab Calloway should have been in the Top 10..

What does number of albums have to do with anything? Just saying though.

ok who put beyonce above shakira ciara alvin ailey aaliyah usher omarion and i’ll even say j lo and most importantly TINA TURNER they were smoking crack when they made this. Alvin Ailey should be in the top 10 and Tina who u know got back dancers for they back up dancers nobody but Tina.

how da hell is ciara 25..missy 20..missy cant even dance and how da hell diddy higher than her.chris brown aint the top dancer and how james brown number 1????

and yall really have to be young if yall asking why is big daddy kane on the list yall might wanna go serach on youtube or something….. now diddy naw but kane was the man….

I’m so sick of Ginuwine not getting the credit he desserves. G should have been on that list, I mean, yea chris brown & omarion are good dancers but Ginuwine paved the way for them young cats so BET needs to do that list over & have Ginuiwne on the list.

This is the Ruff draft right? Ginuwine I STILL LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

I am extremely baffled that ciara is #25 when she has more dancing skill and complexity more than half that list.

Beyonce is not even a dancer.
diddy and missy should not even be on the list.
As well as shakira??? nope.
Bigg daddy kane-nope.

They seriously did this by the numbers. Here’s the forumla for this whack a$$ BS:

3 from the very old school (Alvin A, Cab, Nicholas brothers)
5 from the Old Old school (James B, Tina,
6 from the New “New” school (Ciara, CB, BK, Omarion)

why yall mad for cici’s position.she not a legend so she shoud be 25.everyone infront of her are legends.hell aaliyah will put cici to sleep.now usher and chris brown was a damn shame.usher dances way better then chrisbrown.beyonce don’t belong on any countdown at all.whoever said cici better then janet is a fucking lie fo’show.what the fuck is wrong with the bet world.

WTH just happened? Nevermind…

I cant believe how ppl are hating on Aaliyah. She was so smooth and fluid in her dance moves, it seemed effortless, she was light on her feet. Yes, she was beautiful, but talented as well. I dont know why Kane was on there, or why Chris Brown was #4 on the list. Didnt he just come out? And I’m sorry, I have to give JLo her props. She was sweet, even on In Living Color….

I was a little disappointed about the list,how could they not have listed Mya,she can and dances her ass off,she even tap dances, I think she up there with the best.If they had Shakira they should of had Justin Timberlake he is a good dancer.Chris Brown should have not been that high,he just came out and he still has alot to prove.There are alot of people who say beyonce should have been lower than Ciara.Why must people compare them to each other?they are not even in the same category,they are two totally different artists.In my opinion Beyonce deserved the spot she was given because she is like the hardest working female in the industry,and she can dance,she can dance all diferent styles,she can dance street-like remember soldier and lose my breath?and she can dance wild and crazy like in deja vu to me that’s called versatility.Let’s not forget the Beyonce dance she had everybody trying to do in her video crazy in love.Everybody wants to jump on the Ciara bandwagon cuz she ain’t been out that long,she a great dancer but what has she done that was so creative lately? in her latest video she doing the same ol dances Usher been doing for awhile now and that’s not being very creative,alot of her moves are very similar to Usher,I seen him do most of them moves she be doing.I seen her do that matrix move alot of times before.She can’t sing so all she got is dancing, at least Beyonce can carry and hit high notes,all ciara does is talk and mumble in her songs.She can’t even perform live without running out of breath at least Beyonce can.Ciara hasn’t even been out for five years and she still has alot to prove, she gotta step up her game vocally and stop dancing all the damn time OK we get it we know you can dance, NEXT!….try singing a ballad for a change.So for her to be compared to Beyonce who is way more established and been around alot longer is wrong,she shouldn’t even be compared to Janet,she is a icon,who cares about who dances better,dancing ain’t everything, of course people gon say Ciara dances better because she is younger and she is for the younger audience and generation,and maybe she can dance better than Janet,but you can’t compare a couple of years of Ciara to 20 years of number one hits,albums,reiventing herself to an icon like Janet Jackson,so in my opinion she was in the correct spot on the list.

WTF!!WHERE IS GINUWINE!!!??? I’M SICK OF BET IM NOT WATCHING 106TH & PARK NO MORE!!!!!LMAO

This list is ridiculous! Such a disgrace to the performers that inspired the moves of most of this people on this list.

Someone said that they did this because of the teens. That is so true. Instead of using the opportunity to show the young’uns where their favorite artists got their moves, they choose to use the popularity contest. Very, very, very few are placed in the right positions.

I remember when BET was for all ages but mostly for those in their twenties. They messed up when they started catering to the teens. Just because they’re a part of Viacom, don’t mean they have to be the “black” version of MTV. That’s gone significantly downhill too.

I am so glad I’m older and remember the old BET that had Video Soul and Teen Summit.

209. Kendra said: “…I’m so sick of Ginuwine not getting the credit he desserves. G should have been on that list”.

======================================================

Geeez, I hear you, but old G is just a little too shiny to make any legitimate, respecable list! Way too shiny!

OMarion dances like a robot.

I think Aaliyah should have been in the top ten. And look at the Ciara/Beyonce thing this way, when Ciara can dance in heels like Beyonce does or when Ciara can stop being so hip-hopish and get a little more variety like Beyonce, then we can argue whether or not Ciara should be higher than Beyonce.

u can tell just threw anybody on there just to fill the list up cuz i dont kno how the hell diddy missy or beyonce even got on the list yea granted they are great entertainers but greatest dancers of all time o hell naw….cuz if they goin by trend dances then the damn franchize boyz, d4l, unk, and huey should of been on that hot ass mess of a list

216 Sit your hot ghetto self down.

Did you forget the title of the show and its purpose? You have so many contradictions I do not know where to begin.

What moves are Ushers? Tell us what video. Ciara did a ballad “And I” and then people said she needed to stick to dancing. Next, Promise is not a ballad, but it is slow-to-mid tempo. So your comments are off.

It is hard to say if Beyonce is the hardest working woman in the industry or just one who gets most of the opportunities because she is perceived as the most popular. There is a difference. Hard working does not make you an “All time Dancer.” Paris Hilton works hard too, to keep the cameras and paparazzi on her no talent ass, so I suppose we should throw her in the list? (That was an exaggeration but it highlights how ridiculous your train of thought is).

Ciara and Beyonce are only being compared because they were both in this countdown and people disagree with the numbering. Yes, they have different styles, but many on that list have different styles. SO WHAT IS YOUR POINT? Next.

AAliyah shouldve been before Beyonce, Chris Brown, O, all thes youngings. Chris Brown before Janet, what the HELL!!! Diddy, i must admit i like his dancing betta than rapping but he had no business on the list. I wouldve put Ciara before Beyonce, but none them youngins before AAliyah. Since they got J-lo on there, i say scratch her and add Pink and/or Aguillera.

@musicjones59

U are right about the fact tha ciara and aaliyah’s dance styles were different, but what u fail 2 realize is that aaliyah died in 2001. It is now 2007. I GUARANTEE you that if she were alive 2day that we wouldnt even be having this discussion. Everyone is now on hip rolling. Aaliyah was doing that shit bach in ‘96. Look at cici’s “Promise” video, and “Like A Boy”. How can u not see that is AALIYAH ALL THE WAY??

This list is pathetic…Ciara shouldnt be on this list, or Missy….honestly I dont even care lol its a shit list neway

Maybe I have not watched enough Chris Brown videos, but #4? All time? LOL. That’s the problem with music today (or more specifically, BET). Mufukkas get overhyped as the next big thing and then they can’t live up to it and fade out.

Can’t wait to see the top 25 vocalists list… lol.

BET I DEMAND A F**KING REDO! GET UR HEADS OUT OF UR F**KING A$$ES AND REDO THIS COUNTDOWN! AJ AND FREE COME FREE BET FROM THIS F**KED UP MADNESS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Your crazy as HELL if you don’t think Ciara Harris should be on this list! What are you smoking honey child?

LMAO, ROSIE PEREZ,BOBBY BROWN,SHAKIRA, WTF?

Bobby Brown can dance? Yes, back in the day he could really dance. The whole list is geared for teenagers which is the whole reason “Chris Brown” is on the list.

Must I remind some of you that Beyonce’ is the only one on that list who has a dance named after her? The Beyonce’ dance was the hottest thing in the country for almost 26 weeks! Hah oh, hah oh!

IMO diddy and missy=off the whole countdown. ciara,aaliyah=higher up. tina turner doesn’t really do anything amazing….she’s just energetic, but i really don’t get why she’s on there. nor prince. i think the jacksons should have been in the top 2, followed by usher, chris, ciara, aaliyah, j.lo, shaki, and then the rest. i think the list was based off of favoritism for an older crowd though, because if you were to ask anyone today, and who really knew about dance, the list would have been different.

maybe BET should air a disclaimer before they re-run this show (ya’ll know they play everything to death) and define what they consider a great dancer to be….

because there’s no way that diddy, bobby brown and big daddy kane deserve to mentioned in the same breath much less the same list as gregory hines, janet & michael and the others….

then again, that’s just my opinion…

ooohhh but i do agree with the james brown thing because those legs were CRAZY and who hasn’t done/tried to do that today?? R.I.P James Brown

and @74Lovely…teeny boppers?? i’m 14 and i can tell you that my peers def. do not agree with this list either

ROTFLMBAOOOOO ya’ll are crackin me the hell up! Well shyt were is Digital Underground for “the Humpty dance” and what about the KidnPlay? Now those were some dances!LOL

PS if you can’t tell the sarcasm you are we todd did!

The order of the list is a mess & I’m sure whoever was responsible for it is going to be fired, especially with the spot that they put Chris Brown in. Now as far as Missy goes she does deserve a spot. Y’all might not remeber, but Missy came out moving, before we even really knew who she was in that Gina Thompson video. Air walking something serious. LOL! I think, because she did use those computer generated bodies in her recent videos people forget that the big Missy used to step compared to the slim Missy.

WHY IS PRINCE EVEN ON THE LIST? DOES HE DANCE? NOW HAD THE LIST BEEN FOR SEXIEST FACIAL EXPRESSIONS PRINCE WOULD DEFINATELY HAVE TO BE ON IT, BUT NOT DANCE.

Hahahaha aint that the damn truth… hell wat about steve urkel and fuck the whole damn ATL cuz they stay comin out wit new dance moves

I guess papa knowles paid them off to have beyonce in the top ten..

are you fucking serious?

lol
lol

beyonce in the top ten for greatest dancers…

bitch, please….

i still got love for her though, i ain’t hatin, just keeping it rizz-eal!

WTF?????????
Aaliyah 18?
Ciara 25?
Usher 11?
Diddy shouldn’t even be on there.
And where’s Mya and Ginuwine?
This list is garbage.

WHY DO BLACK PEOPLE ALWAYS HATE ON JLO
JLO STARTED AS A DANCER SHE IS SO GOOOD AT IT SHE IS VERSATILE AND CAN DANCE HIP HOP SALSA …. HOW CAN SOME JEALOUS BITCH SAY THAT SHE DOESNT DESERVE TO BE ON THIS LIST AND REMEMBER SHE WAS A JANET DANCER SO HOW CANT SHE BE GOOD????
people in here are praising beyonce too much and the girl only know how to shake her ass

Beyonce should not be on the list period. along with diddy and missy.

Beyonce is not a dancer. What has beyonce done that is so creative or innovative in dance?????
the booty bounce dance……don’t think so. This is why people call her OVER-RATED. because she gets too much damn credit for nothing.

This was a shitty list.

yet another f*** up from bet..top five should have been 1- james brown 2- michael jackson 3-mc hammer (if you ever seen him dance live, you know he can dance his ass off) 4-janet jackson 5-jackie wilson because they are some of the inspirations for dancers today

BET officially sucks ass!! that’s why i don’t even bother watching anymore.

Like everyone said, i agree with the list, but the order was totally fucked up!!

And I agree that mya and genuwine should have been on the list. The only reason why those two weren’t was because their careers have not blown up.

Hence, beyonce is on the list because her career has blown up, but she is not even a dancer.

That shit is just wack. Another reason for me to hate on beyonce because of all the undeserved hype. her ass is way too over-rated.

How are mya and genuwine not gonna make that list, but weavelicious(all i do is have seizures and flip my lacefront wig) make the list. bullshit.

Now, I’m just gonna continue to state the obvious… when I saw this shit I knew someone had cracked whoever made this list in the head with a sack of bricks because how the hell is Debbie Allen, Sammie Davis Jr., and Paula Abdul not make the list. Truthfully, I don’t think Omarion, Chris Brown, or Beyonce should have been as high on the list as they were. Beyonce is talented but she needs to stick to singing, Omarion is a better dancer than singer (But that isn’t saying much because he can’t sing), and Chris Brown is talented but with only one album and a handful of videos how the hell is he beating out Janet “Rhythm Nation” Jackson. Debbie Allen has choreographed some of the greatest dance sequences in history - “FAME” and “Coming to America” and you don’t put her on here - GTFO!!!! There would have been no Gregory Hines or Savion Glover without Sammie Davis Jr. and Janet wouldn’t know she had anything to shake if Paula Abdul didn’t choreograph all her early shit. So come on BET step it the fuck up because this list is simply a disgrace.

Janet was hot in her day, but if you put Janet against Ciara now she would get killed! Shes old now, but in her day she was the best female dancer. But seriously we need to boycott BET. WTF is Shakira doing on the list??

DAMN YO… CIARA SHOULD HAVE BEEN LiKE LOWER..SHE DANCES WAY BETTER THAN MOST OF THEM NI99AZ

How In D He!! was ciara #25 she got all these you artist beat. and where is josphine Baker i mean beyonce stole one of her entire numbers for deja vu. Janet should have been right behind her brother and usher should have been right there close behind and so should have Aaliyah. as a dancer who’s talents were giving to him and not taught, i’m ashamed at this damn list. thats why you all should join me in the bringing down of BET (AKA The Koon Network) for dumb $#!+ like this list. And Spring Bling and The Hip Hop Awards and Rip The Runway and so on and so on…….

shakira should be on the list!! she can dance like no other. no oneeeee can dance like her. unless the list were just meant for black entertainers….then again i know a lot of black people who do enjoy her dancing.

I AGREE WITH A LOT OF U THERE’S PPL LIKE GINUWINE, MYA, LMAO AT THIS ONE LEON FROM FAME THIS WAS POORLY PUT TOGETHER

Maya sweety i see how that does resemble aaliyah and i give baby girl the credit cuase she god knows she does deserve it …but this comming from a dancer ( me ) ciara would dance circles around aaliyah …aaliyah could dance but when u see the passion and how much effort ciara puts into her dancing it shows who the better dancer is … ciara inspires so much not to say that aahiyah dosent cuase are you thats somebody was the reason i wanted to start dancing BUT ciara is more then just corogerphy which aaliyah just is ciara freestyles are Bannanas ! Ciara is just a Dancer before anything she never seems to fail at amazing us with her dancing …. they both deserve to be on the list now they both are aswome but i just believe Ciara took what aahiyah was doin and janet too ( gotta give props to them ) and took it to a whole another level …… all them deserve respect they are all great artist and dancers

hmmm looks like the older generation has some serious HATE going on towards the new/current generations….and don’t deny it cuz i’m reading it!

Ciara can’t truly dance. She looks like she is counting the steps.

Diddy started out in the industry as a dancer and he does his own thing.

Beyonce can’t dance a little bit!

Aaliyah should have been higher and as a few others have stated Ginuwine should have made the list.

Personally, I think Chris Brown is a great dancer, yep even better than Janet. She always had a lot of rehearsed moves. Omarion is better than her too!

Oh please what about the cre from stomp the yard! Shakira is pretty all she does is belly dance. And Bewonce hell she shakes her but that’s like Ashanti on there all she does is aroebics dance moves!!! All she does is move her arms. WTF????????

PEOPLE! SOME OF YOU ARE COMPLETELY MISSING THE POINT. THIS IS WHY BET KEEPS PUTTING THIS KIND OF S**T ON TV. HOW MANY RECORDS OR NOTES BEYONCE CAN HIT IS NOT THE POINT! HOW MANY RECORDS JANETS LAST ALBUM SOLD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HER DANCING. WHAT WE NEED TO ASKING IS WHY DOES BET KEEP INSULTING OUR INTELLIGENCE? BOYCOTT!!!

256 ?! WTF how old are u 12 ?!

chris brown and omarion better then Janet ?!?

pleasure princpal, rythmn nation , alright , alll night dont stop , if , dosent really matter ??!! the list goes on !!

if u dont sit your non knowledge of what a dancer turly is ass down !

omarion and chirs brown are great i addmit but by far no where in HELL near janets level NO WHERE !

and u tlakin bout ciara cant dance sehs countin her steps u are truly and idot ! i almost shit my pants reading your post !

How they gonna play Ciara, Usher, and Aaliyah like that? I mean do they really think Diddy can dance?

This is another reason why I hate BET with a passion and they have definitely downgraded themselves in the last few years. Wtf is Missy Elliot on this list…above Ciara??? Cmon!! And yes Usher and Janet shouldve been in the top five. Aaliyah and Ciara shouldve ben waaaayyyy further up. This list is all jacked up.

Dree> No hate this is just a wack ass list and umm we talkin bout Diddy and Kane on here too and they are older than me. What I said earlier is BET aint gonna name some of the real greats cause since it caters to teeny boppers they wouldnt know who the hell these ppl are. Shoot I’ve been reading and some ppl dont know who the Nicholas brothers are so I damn sure know they dont know who Katherine Dunham, Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, Jackie Wilson, Cholly Adkins, Ben Vereen, Josephine Baker, Pearl Primus, Arthur Mitchel are now those are some great dancers

LMAO @ Lovely bringing up the humpty dance. “The humpty dance is your chance to do the hump” Girl you crazy. But you right. They might as well made the list too.

@Meatloaf, Bey didn’t make that dance up. Females been doing that. That’s why I could never figure out why they called it the “Beyonce” when that dance beeeeeeeeeeeen out.

@ #256 Tasha, are you serious? Please say you playing right about now.

As a dancer, I hope this was just a list and in no particular order!
If this is the order, I co-sign with # 13!

Chris Brown should be in the 20’s not even near number 1 and not over Janet or some of those other dancers. He can dance but he’s should be ranked more towards Cici.

^^^^^^^^^^ YOU ARE CORRECT, AT THE SAME TIME HOW IS IT SHE WAS TAUGHT BY ROSIE PEREZ AS WELL WHOM IS LOWER ON THE LIST! THAT IS THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THE LIST. THE PIONEERS ARE LOWER ON THE LIST THAN THEIR PROTEGES. WE ALL KNOW BEYONCE GETS HER STYLE FROM MICHAEL, JANET AND TINA! SHE STILL PUT HER OWN STAMP ON HER MOVES LIKE FATIMA SAID. WHAT OTHER PERFORMER OUT HERE CAN IMULATE TINA TURNER TO THE T? AT THE SAME TIME THEY JUDGED THEM ON ORIGINALITY, THEIR STAGE PRESENCE AMONG OTHERS. BEYONCE TO ME BEATS CIARA OT ON THE STAGE PERFORMANCE, CIARA CAME OUT DANCING AND TRYING TO SING, DESTINY CHILD(BEYONCE) CAME OUT KICKING ASS DOING BOTH! BEYONCE IS A HELL OF A PERFORMER, SHE CAN DANCE AND SING AT THE SAME TIME, CIARA IS STILL TRYING TO MASTER THIS! I DIDN’T LIKE THE ORDER OF THE LIST AS WELL! SOME PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT OFF AS WELL AS OTHERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THERE, JOSEPHINE BAKER FOR ONE!

What it do Compton_Chick?!

Where in the hell was Milli Vanilli on this list? j/k for the slow folks.

The only thing that BET ever got right was the Top 25 couples but the rest of them need some readjusting.

This list is full…I only seen one person mention one of the greats who inspired a lot of people on here…Sammy Davis Jr. Fred Astaire should be on here. The Nicholas Brothers is a good look in the top 3 (if you dont know about them, check them on youtube). As far as modern R & B performers, Ginuwine is still light years ahead of what Chris Brown will ever become. He should have at least made the list. Gregory Hines is a good look on the list. There needs to be a public apology for having Diddy and Missy on here.

I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE A MESS UP LIST WHEN THEY PUT CIARA AT 25! THAT WAS STUPID! SHE DESERVE TO BE IN THE TOP TEN! NOT BEYONCE , PRINCE, MISSY, AND USHER. I DONT CARE FOR USHER DANCING! AND BEYONCE SHE CANNOT EVEN DANCE NOR FREESTYLE WITH DANCE LIKE CIARA DO! BET AINT NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF DICKS ANYWAY!

i don`t like ciara position ;; diddy shouldn`t even be on the list. chris brown doesn`t deserve number four because usher personally can dance better. chris brown just krump`s all the time. the countdown is jacked. i like beyonce position, but ciara`s could have been hiqher. and some of this people i haven`t even heard of. why isn`t omarion on the countdown. missy elliott don`t deserve to be on the countdown neither. i demand a do-over cuz this countdown is wack!

janet and michael jackson are the reason aaliyah, chris brown, missy elliot, usher and a couple others are even on the list to begin with. nobody gets mimicked more then the jacksons.

This List is Utterly Ridiculous Ciara should definately be higher than number 25 why is Diddy, Big Daddy Kane on the list Michael Jackson should’ve been number one Usher a close second Janet should be in the top five and Beyonce should switch with Ciara.

Okay Ciara 25!!!- Not even a fan but know she was cheated.

Diddy-Why!

Beyonce- Can not dance!!!!!!! Kelly kills her when it comes to the dance. (Not a hater just telling the truth)

Prince- i know he is an icon but dancer?

Chris Brown- Ya’ll know when hosting, performing or presenting anywhere you go get an award or in this case higher position. But 4 wow!

umm PEOPLE THE FANS VOTED FOR THIS ON THE BET WEBSITE SO DON”T TAKE IT TOO SERIOUSLY.

How about BET just can the Top Whatever lists all together…they always suck and nobody ever agrees with them.

LOL tha list is wack… Ciara 25, CHRIS brown 4? Missy? DIddy? - Dancers?? WTF…………….

I cant believe this, I have to pay $1.75 extra per month for this channel - I want my money back.
Where is Debbie Allen, Fred Astaire, Sammy Davis Jr,Paula Abdul why is Ciara so low, y in god’s name are Diddy and Missy on this ish. If anybody could make this list then all the dancehall stars from Jamaica should be there too.
BET has absolutely no credibility with anyone but 5 year olds. I am so dissappointed in how they continue to misrepresent Black America

can someone tell me how missy got on the list and vbeat greggory hines? just because you can do a two step does not mean that you are good dancer worthy of praise.

I think every-one on the list deserved to make it except Diddy. This show was not about entertainers it was about dancers, if they put Diddy on the list they should have put Whitney Houso and R. Kelly on there as well. Chris Brown is great I think he should’ve been in the top ten but not the top 3 Coming before Janet Jackson is just crazy.. J.Lo and Ciara should’ve been in the top ten as well

Diddy should not even be on this list. He does a lil 2 step but thats something u see everyday. And above Ciara oh no! Also, Chris can dance but he is no where near better than Janet or Prince. But atleast they got number one right, RIP James Brown. IF number one had been Beyonce (I give her props the gurl is Badd!) But if she was, then there def. would be a problem!

michael jackson and james brown made top two because it’s right!

25. Ciara -Did I really just see that SH!T, what is this based on! That girl can dance her fukkin azz off, and honwstly I think its what keeps her in the game, cuzz she can sing but it’s bland, but her dancing, she got something different every video, she shoulda been in the top 10.

This list is a jole. Why is Bobby Brown over Alvin Aley. And where is Sammy Davis and Debbie Allen. How in the hell can they put chris Brown over Janet and Usher. BET has truly lost it.

ITS TO EASY TO EVEN COMPLIMENT ON THE CHRIS BROWN STUPIDITY SO I’LL BE SHORT…THE KID IS CUTE BUT LOOKS HELLA GAWKY DANCING
ANYWAY,
whoever compares cici and janet is hella ignorant
janet was turning backflips out of chairs at cici’s age….cici’s flexibility and pussi poppin is cute tho

janet created the “pop/r and b dancing diva” the rest are just followers…some better than others

IM SORRY TO SAY BUT IF THEY WOULD HAVE PUT TRUE DANCERS INSTEAD OF WAS HOT TODAY CIARA MAY NOT EVEN MADE IT ON HERE I MEAN SHE’S AIGHT BUT NOTHING A LIL CHORGR. COULDNT TEACH AND BEYONCE I DIDNT KNOW ANYONE CALLED THAT DANCING BUT I GUESS SOMEONE FOUND IT WORTHY OF BEINGON THE LIST CHRIS BROWN IM NOT FEELING HIM AT ALL I HOPE CONCRETELOOP MADE A TYPO CAUSE THIS IS JUST BOGUS

HOLD UP!!! How is Prince gonna be #6?!? My man should have at least been in the top 3!! Although in my opinion, he SHOULD have been #1 or #2 behind James Brown!! F*** that!!! PRINCE IS THE MAN!!

O YEA I REMEMBER THE BEYONCE DANCE
IT REQUIRES 30 INCHES OF WEAVE I SHIRT AND NO RHYTHMN

LOL
DO THE DANCE ONLY TO A YING YANG TWIN SONG LOL

^^^^^ 285 Bonnie

get yo mugshot looking self outta here. Cici is betta than half on that list. Not all of her stuff is choreography anyway- think 1, 2 step

I see Buffoon Entertainment Television is at it again! This list reflects the new and downgraded BET network! I agree with most of these comments. The order is all over the place and full of crap. … Mya, Debbie Allen, Paula Abdul, and Ginuwine should all be on the list!

Diddy and that tired shuffle step he always does shouldn’t be on the list either. And why the heck is Missy and Big Daddy Kane on here? This list is laughable at best!

BET should stay away from countdowns all together in my opinion. They’ve done lists that just don’t add up.
After watching Spring Bling, its evident they gave up on good programs like Teen Summit so they need to bring Bob Johnson.

Bsides yall know they sold BET to white ppl and they damn sho dont know what constitutes a dancer lol.

No joke, i was in shock when i was watching the “top 25 dancers”. who the hell rated the dancer. ciara??? new 25?!?!?! are u kidding me? she should of been at least in the top 10. i dont know how beyonce did it over tina turner. i was so pissed.

http://thebizzness.blogspot.com

1,2 step is nothing maybe a person dream that cant dance but other then that naw …….if u think ciara is extraodinary i see why beyonce at the top

this list not right

Ugh im in the UK and glad i missed this, or else i woulda been shouting the TV.

Someone mentioned fred astaire-for real, WHAT HAPPENED TO FRED?

Sammy davis Jr???

debbie allen???

paula abdul?

Gene kelly?

all these people inspired, and have a large following even today.

Why is bey on the list? Chris shoulda been like 19

CIARA 25!?! thats an insult, almost as bad as defamation of character, ugh im so mad!

Gregory hines should have been way higher too as cab calloway, ugh thats just wrong all wrong.

how the hell is beyonce before ciara?

the temptations?
diddy?
missy elliott? wtf? she dances?

f’n gregory hines paved the way for many dancers and dont get me started on alvin ailey….he is very significant! how are they being disrespected like this.

and if its top dancers of all time….where the hell is justin timberlake? and gene kelly? white dancers and also other black monumental dancers like debbie allen and my boy sammy davis jr…he was the ish!

this further proves how ignorant bet is to their history! it makes no sense! they need to read up on many things anddo their homework!

yeah this list is DEFINITELY off!! way off!!

this order is ri-dam-dic-u-lous…how are any of these folks ranked over Alvin Ailey and Gregory Hines? That is preposturous. Usher should’ve been higher along with Janet Jackson…..Shakira even…perhaps they weren’t serious about the order. They couldn’t have been. Do you all know who Alvin Ailey was? Sheesh?

now i am not saying this cause i love ciara but as far as aaliyah( who i loved r.i.p) vs. ciara is concerned ciara is DEFINAETLY better for the simple fact that there is nothing that she cannot do as a dancer i have seen her perform and dance she is the queen hands down i mean yes aaliyah danced more smoothly and more effortlessly than ci but that’s like saying she can sing better than whitney cause her voice is more soft and angelic whitney is better cause she has a powerful strong voice that makes u say daaamn and if ur the best at anything that’s wat ur supposed 2 do aaliyah’s dancing doesnt really do that

i think chris brown is where he supposed to be…he is young and talented…ciara at 25 lmao…maybe it wasnt supposed be in order.

I AGREE IF U GNA HAVE SHAKIRA

WHO IS ACTUALLY

LEBANESE

AND COLOMBIAN

YOU NEEDA HAVE BRITNEY SPEARS

THEIR STILL LIKE CAUCASIAN IF YOU ASK ME

AND SHE CAN DANCE WAY BETTER THAN DIDDY’S NO TRYING SELF

MAYBE THE DANCERS WERE RANDOM

BUT YOU CANT SAY THAT WHEN JAMES BROWN AND MICHAEL ARE THE TOP 2

WE AINT STUPID LOL

as far as beyonce goes ciara knows that her dancing is A LOT BETTER than her vocals which is why she focuses on it but if she can sing(which she can listen to her song insecure or watch a clip of access granted when she sings accapella)and dance why not do it and that’s what she is doing but she is focusing on her dancing cause that is wat she loves and it makes more sense to focus more on wat your good at than wat ur not espicially when we all know that that is wat she is known and popular for but beyonce has a lot more practice and experince in the game which is why she can sing and dance at the same time so well give ci some time i am sure she could do that 2 less vocal skills than beyonce but still….

@daoneandonly

I mean, u cant even compare whitney’s voice to aaliyah, its two different styles of singing. All im saying is that i like ciara, and i think she’s a great dancer, but to everyone else, she is the best because she doesnt have any competition. Beyonce aint all that. Really, who else is out there? Aaliyah’s style of dance fit her own personal style: smooth and laid back. Im pretty sure she put 100% in ALL she did. Like i said, aaliyah died in 2001. Who knows how her skills couldve been in 2007? To me, ciara is a re-hashed aaliyah, and thats the truth, whether one likes it or not.

^^ i dont think ciara is better than janet..watch janet’s old videos from the 80’s..plus ciara does that same played out “bend over backwards” move in damn near all her videos and performances..heck she does a lot of the same moves wherever you see her.but i do agree she coulda been higher than 25.. I think the order was pretty good except for diddy? Missy? i dont understand wtf they’re on there..i wish Aaliyah had been at least #11. I like Bee. too..but she shouldn’t have been that high up either.

I DONT SEE HOW THE FUCK DIDDY, JENNIFER LOPEZ, TINA TURNER, AALIYAH[RIP], … NE OF THEM GOT AHEAD OF CIARA.. THAT CAN DANCE HER ASS OFF.. I SAW HER LIVE IN DENVER, AND THAT BITCH ROCKED IT OUT..FUCKIN DIDDY?? I DIDNT THAT BITCH EVEN COULD DANCE.. IM SORRY BUT WHOEVER CAME UP WITH THIS SHIT DONT KNOW WHAT THER TALKIN ABOUT.. WACKED OUT FUCKIN LIST./.

son bonnie look good but i dont see your picture up there so why dont next time you just stay on topic and let her say what she gotta say but i said that cause u see she was to big of a person to say it

I’m huge cici fan so you already know that I was mad as hell at the list. The person who made up this list obviously HATES ciara lol! Beyonce higher than jlo and shakira? thats really sad! Mya and paula abdul ain’t even on the list and they gon put bey at #9, thats ridiculous! And diddy is a joke. BET is really lame. they only thing they do well at is supportimg hot ghetto messes like rappers who got beef.

Why didn’t Neyo make the list?

hold on did the walmart version tina turner make the list higher then the real one

Beyonce and Missy, i don’t get it one bit i am confused. Caira @ 25 and Chris Brown @ 4, crazy world we are in. i have to much to say to even type it up

also Britney Spears, Debbie Allen, i mean there are a whole lot of people off this list comapred to who they have. Diddy danced many moons ago and what the hell with Big Daddy Kane’s ass on there

I left the room right after Ciara Harris was 25!!! WOW!!!

This list was hot moldy grits. I think Chris is a good dancer; he should have been, like in the top 18 though. Ciara is the one getting people ATTEMPTING to do her moves. I saw some white girls in the hall trying to do it today(f-ing hilarious). That girl is influencial in her time whether some of ya’ll except it or not. I think the Top 3 was perfect. The Nicholas Brothers are CRAZY!!! Michael and James were in the right spot. Janet should have been 4 only because “you must respect your elders, they paved the way.” Aaliyah was not that great to me to be honest. She was pretty much…um…boring. I would have gave her 24, gave Beyonce 25(she is more spaztic) and took Diddy’s simple ass, Missy, BDK and Shakira off the list.

@musicjones59

I am a dancer as well, and I just want to thank you for expressing your opinion to me in a respectful manner. I am a BIG Aaliyah fan, repping Detroit. I got to meet her a few times, my bro went to DSA, and she was a beautiful person. I guess we have to agree to disagree.=) And for a lot of ppl wondering why Missy was on the list, I have to agree with the person who said tha BIG Missy was stepping long before the SKINTY (lol) Missy. Hit Em Wit Da Hee, Nicole Wray’s Make It Hot, etc. That’s when Missy, Tim, Playa and Ginuwine was HOT in the late 90’s.

yo son i understand ur love for ciara but bonnie is right if the right ppl where on here she wouldnt be on she hot and fresh today but of all time look at one of her videos without flashin going on get up and like a boy you will see that ppl on youtube could do that stuff she doing and thats is right she do the same stuff all the time back bend

oh yeah, all these people saying this was made for dumb teenboppers, get your steriotypical ass outta here. yes im a teen. that dont mean i think chris brown deserve to be on this damn list! i know he doesnt, thank youu very much.

and so what if i spelled stereotypical wrong, lol

You may as well put Fred Astere on the list with Paula abdul and Jennifer Lopez.

The baddest dancer of all times was actually a dude name Jackie Wilson! He taught James Brown, the Tempts and Tops how to “Come out Here On the Floor!”

obviously they are basing this list on old comers.. i don’t believe ciara to be #25 i think thats an insult. MJ should have been number one. this is a joke to me

Missy E. got good dancers she dont dance she bearly moves. Ciara #25 is the biggest force ive ever seen.
How the fuck is Diddy on the list, i mean cum on he dont even dance. And half those people on there taught Chris Brown how 2 dance this is sum bull shit!
Beyonce could dance and i luv her but i got 2 admit that she shouldn’t not have been #9, she should’ve been on the list but not #9. And yall c Ciara in that picture above,THat just fuckin shows that they’re wrong bout Cuara. Did this list get jacked or sumthin cuz this is just fucked up! Dont even get me started bout Aaliyah, DAMN!!!!

That is a cute pic of Ciara though.

How can James Brown be #1, and Ciara #25.

Michael should b #1.
Ciara should b #2.
Beyonce should b #3.

All other artists should fight for the rest.

Where is Mya?????

i know i’m about to say what a lot of others have said already but, ciara along with aaliyah omarion & usher deserve to be in the top 10. chris brown gets his dancing styles from usher, so wtf?! diddy & big daddy kane are jokes. this whole list is a joke. & whoever agreed to this list needs to be shot.

BEYONCE DANCES SOOOO SAFISTICATEDLY AND CIARA DANCES MORE HOOD SO ITS HARD 2 COMPARE.BUT CIARA AT 25 THAT IS JUST BULL SHIT. I AINT SURPRISED ABOUT BEYONCE AT ALL OF COURSE NI99AZ LIKE 2 SEE HER ASS POPPIN’, THATS PROBABLY WHY. CIARA SHOULDA BEEN IN THE TOP 10 HANDS DOWN. BEYONCE SHOULDA BEEN ON THE LIST BUT IN THE TEENS OR 20′S. SUM OF THOSE PEOPLE ON THERE, I RELLY DONT KNOW WHO THE FUCK THEY ARE SO THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON THERE. AND YALL KNOW B.E.T. DIDN’T JUST PICK THOSE PEOPLE, THEY HAD PEOPLE VOTE SO STOP SAYIN SHIT ABUT B.E.T!

I KNOW BET WAS GOING FOR THEIR TARGET AUDIENCE WHICH IS TEENAGERS AND PEOPLE IN THEIR EARLY TO MID 20S’S BUT THIS LIST IS RIDICULOUS. DIDDY? MISSY? CHRIS BROWN IN THE TOP 5? BEYONCE? WHAT ABOUT JACKIE WILSON (GOOGLE HIM IF YOU DON’T KOW WHO HE IS) MICHAEL PETERS(GOOGLE HIM HINT HE WAS A GREAT DANCER AND CHOREOGRAPHER) DEBBIE ALLEN, AND HOW ARE YOU GOING TO PUT THE TEMPTATIONS (WHOM I LOVE) AND NOT INCLUDE THE GREATEST DANCE GROUP EVER NEW EDITION? AND FOR THOSE WHO WONDER WHY BOBBY BROWN IS ON THE LIST YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT HIM OUT DURING HIS HEYDAY AND YOU’LL SEE WHY HE AND HAMMER ARE ON THE LIST

sure is the truth. Ciara dance way betta than half the people on the list. Its a shame. BET is falling off. Come on big daddy kane, shakira, diddy, missy elliott, jennifer lopez, greg hines, rosie perez above Ciara, man get out of here!!! This list is fucked up!!

@323
what da fuck do u mean by “Where’s Mya”
like r u serious that bitch cant even dance 4 shit. If she wuz on here the list would uv bin even more jacked.

Beyonce No. 9…WTF…she don’t even dance…and over aaliayh and ciara at that…who complied this list?…5th graders

How the fuck did Beyonce beat Omarion and Ciara? She doesn’t dance, she rolls around on the ground and shakes her ass.

#320 AND #322 I totally agree.

@J. Lewis

Hey wassup boy! I see you not liking this wack ass list neither LoL…BET needs to step their game up ASAP.

BET should review this list and apologize, cuz i know a lot of ppl got offended (including me)!!!

And 4 the hataz. Beyonce actually duz dance 4 yall information, We must be talkin about different Beyonce’s. She should’ve been lower on the list but the chic could still dance.FUCK YALL HATAZ!

@Shabba #329,
They actually have this site in Africa? Shabba, WTF!

UMMMMM OMARION SHOULD HAVE BEAT CHRIS BROWN HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!

BET needs a whoopin!

The list is complete bullshit. No Jackie Wilson? No Ginuwine? No Big Lez??? No Poppin’ pete? No Poppin’ Taco?? Skeeter Rabbit??? Shit, the last three alone were the ones that taught MIKE JAACKSON!!!!!

I most def. don’t agree with the list, but I ALSO have to disagree with some of you all about Ciara and Aaliyah. While I agree Ciara can dance, and she should have been higher, but not that much. It said ALL TIMES. Aaliyah deserves MORE credit then some of you are giving. You think she was ‘boring’ but her style was.. LAID BACK. She graduated from SCHOOL FOR DANCING. Then, we all wanted to learn her dance moves, just like you do now with Ciara. Dancing is so much more agreessive NOW then it was THEN. Who know’s how Aaliyah would dance now! Dancing has changed SO much!

Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwww,#335
that aint even right u dont play around like that, Thats mad offensive.

@227

I’m waiting for that list of vocalists too, that’s where they gon put Ashanti at number 1 and we gonna be saying what the hell! then too.

Some of the people on here need to know that Janet would tear down Ciara in some kinda dance battle. I’m 17 and I swear I’ve seen the “Pleasure Principle” video a million times, and her dancing in that video alone made me almost wanna be a dancer.

Ciara is nice at dancin’ but 2 me she’s just a lil’ janet and aaliyah.

All real dudes know that Hammer is the greatest dancer of all time. Just watch the pumps and a bump video (not the gay version, the gangsta one). But seriously, Mc Hammer is probably the most athletic dancer of all times. And while everybody had begun to dance like Michael Jackson (Terrence Trent Darby), MC Hammer made it ok to not have a perm in your head.

there are a lot of things wrong with this list, Omarion should be in the top 10, Diddy shouldn’t be on the list, Missy Elliot wtf?! Ciara should be MUCH closer to Aaliyah and Bobby Brown and MC Hammer should be lower. And Usher is a more versitile dancer than Chris Brown but Chris would crush him in a dance battle (Ursh is definately not a battle dancer). Also if Shakira made on this list then Justin Timberlake shoulda made it on the list.

Hence, beyonce is on the list because her career has blown up, but she is not even a dancer.

That shit is just wack. Another reason for me to hate on beyonce because of all the undeserved hype. her ass is way too over-rated.

How are mya and genuwine not gonna make that list, but weavelicious(all i do is have seizures and flip my lacefront wig) make the list. bullshit.

ComptonChick, they should have put Whitney Houston on the list, since Diddy is on there. Yeah, she should be #2.

Salty #344
shut the fuck up, Beyonce could dance so dont hate BITCH!

Missy E. got good dancers she dont dance she bearly moves. Ciara #25 is the biggest force ive ever seen.
How the fuck is Diddy on the list, i mean cum on he dont even dance. And half those people on there taught Chris Brown how 2 dance this is sum bull shit!
Beyonce could dance and i luv her but i got 2 admit that she shouldn’t not have been #9, she should’ve been on the list but not #9. And yall c Ciara in that picture above,THat just fuckin shows that they’re wrong bout Cuara. Did this list get jacked or sumthin cuz this is just fucked up! Dont even get me started bout Aaliyah, DAMN!!!!
frum b-hood

I like the Beyonce’ Dance!!!

@MJ (RNB)

They might as well put Jay-Z, Nas and Brian McKnight in there too!

Yeah, I hate when BET does these type of countdowns. They really suck at it. Ciara should not have been at #25, Diddy and Prince should have been omitted, and BET does not play Shakira’s music so why is she even mentioned?

this list a joke!!!

LOL at Beyonce and JLo even being on there. Same with Chris Brown. LOL

#346, Beyonce does NOT dance,

-But she does shake her flat, cellulite having ass

-have multiple seizures on stage (i.e deja vu performance)

-Flip her lacefront wig(i.e every performance she does)

Beyonce is over-rated and Does not deserve to be acknowledged as a dancer. And dancing on joe camel does not count. sweetie.

@221: ciara danced in heels, please go to youtube and search for ciara-like a boy live and STFU.

wtf? ciara #25??????ß pleaaaaaaaaaaase stop.

I saw Vivica Fox on “Dancing With The Stars” and that girl can do a mean Romba!

Mya Should’ve Been On That List Handsdown!!!!! She Started Out As A Dancer Before Singer!!!! She’s Very Versatile!!! To Me That’s Like A Slap In The Face For Her!!! I’m Guessin’ BET Didn’t Catch Her Janet Jackson Icon Tribute In 2001!!!!! Mya Killed It!!!

@Salty#352,
I know this aint my business but Beyonce cant dance? Are you kiddin me. That chic could dance 4 n-e thing.Have you ever seen the video “Lose My Breathe” obviously no 4 sayin that Beyonce cant dance.I mean Beyonce could dance but not good enough 2 be #9 more like #17.

can sum1 read me number 25 cuz cuz im 100% sure that im seein wrong.

Diddy look like a burnt dolphin (He don’t belong on the list)

Compton, don’t slay me now!

I think they should have got around 5 chorepgraphers and did a round table. Like when MTV did the top rappers of all time.

Mya shoulda been on it and TLC were the ish back in the day esp tboz. Ciara shoulda been higher and Usher should been higher too. Bey shouldn’t have made the cut ( I am a fan 2). But seriously the 4got REH DOGG

@B-Hood Lose my breath is not anything that desrves to be acknowledged. WE are taking great dancers of ALL TIME, how does beyonce fit in????

Beyonce dances, but it’s not anything that screams GREAT DANCER.

Beyonce is over-rated point blank.

Its not so much of the celebrity its the choreographer. BEYONCE CAN NOT DANCE. FOR SHIT.

The reason I think they put Ciara in the #25 spot is because she is a woman. If Ciara was a dude, she would have been quickly added to the top 10 list. But just because this was aired on television doesn’t mean it’s acurate. We all know Ciara can dance better than the spot they gave her.

Chris Brown can really get down, but so can Omarion. I do believe Janet should have came in at Number 4. I can’t lie, that was hot when the Nicolas Bros. were jumpin’ down the stairs. That looked painful!!! But chill folks, b/c WE really know what the deal is!!!

WHY AREN’T PEOPLE SAYING CIARA SHOULD BE HIGHER THAN CHRIS BROWN??? CIARA IS A MUCH BETTER DANCER. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE SAY CHRIS BROWN CAN DANCE, ALL HE EVER DOES IS THAT KRUMP SHIT AND IF PEOPLE CALL THAT DANCING… HE IS NOT ORIGINAL. HIS STYLE OF DANCE IS SO RETARTED. AND HE DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE HIGHER THAN JANET, JENNIFER, CIARA, USHER, AND AALIYAH. BET IS DEFINITELY WRONG THAT THIS LIST AND SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO MAKE ONE AGAIN.

I agree that they are all great dancers but can someone please explain to me how the hell is Beyonce a better dancer than J-Lo??? Biggest Joke…gotta be kidding me…what does she do? She just gyrates all over the place, the same thing she does in every video and on stage…J-Lo may not be the best singer, certanily not better than Bey but she is a legend next to her when it comes to dancing…what training does bey have…I love Bey but DAMN!! she’s not a better dancer than J-lo or even Ciara for that matter….overall i was dissapointed with the rankings….c’mon now.

Why isn’t Mya on this list???

Justin Timberlake wasn’t on the list simply because he isn’t a person of Color. But lets be real about this. James Brown moves around like he has Fire Ants biteing at his feet. Michael Jackson should have been number 1 and I think most of believe that. Usher is more of a verstiale dancer over Chris Brown. MC Hammer COME ON…… Bobby Brown COME ON! Everyone can hump the damn floor, that isn’t anything talanted. Ciara should have swaped places with Aaliyah and lets face it really Tina Turner on the list? Anyone can jump around on the spot or fling there head around in circles. Prince is just purely a FAG and if a dude wears makeup we know he got some serious issues and clarity on what sex he batting for. Beyonce did earn her right to be there, but is everyone sick and tired of hearing about how she needs to get into this role of “sasha” that girl is a free spirited FREAK and that shows in her dancing, the only act that she has is telling us all that she isn’t a confident dancer…. I aint hating I wish I could dance like the girl. BET seriously needs to re-think their list. And 25 best dancers of all time, seriously how can you compare Ballet or Jazz dancing to hip hop? It should have read 25 best hip hop dancers.

WHO THE FUCK, WHAT THE FUCK, hol up Chris Brown #4, how the hell did DIDDY make the list, Y BET WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!

UHMMM DIDDY…puhh-lease, he moves like wounded polar bear. Chris Brown at number four??? i could understand if he was innovative, but his dance moves are all from numbers 6-25 (excluding diddy, of course)
BET IS WACK, i’m just truly ashamed.

I love Aaliyah…..but she could not dance.

NEW EDITION, GINUWINE That a mess up list. I on my way to b.e.t. site now.

Ssoooo…… where was Shabba Doo and Turbo???????????

Somebody is a MO-ron!!! The list itself is “ok” I guess..I don’t think that Diddy or Big Daddy Kane should be on there and the order is just too wrong.

Just cuz Diddy started out dancing, it doesn’t make him one of the greatest..and Kane, well…his dancers did most of the work…

lmao @ The temptations makin the list, Chris Brown did BET promise u the #4 spot in exchange of hosting this ridiculous mess? SMH what a fuckin disgrace

I was so mad at the list. I’m not tryna be a hata but Diddy cannot dance he should not have been on there at all. Marques Houston should have been on there fo sho. Chris Brown should not have been #4 beating out Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, and Usher. That is some crazy shit. Omarion should have came before Chris. That is so crazy!

Someone said what does selling albums have to do with this,I’m saying!If that was the case it would MJ.But this is dancing.I agree,Mya should of been on here more than Missy,Diddy and Beyonce’.Aaliyah was an ok dancer,but to be put in a catergory with Alvin,Gregory Hines,Savion Glover,The Nicohlas Brothers etc., its kind of like a big question mark to me.I remember watching Video Soul and wanting to be like most of them, but now I don’t even tune because of things like this.

Well it aint Chris’es fault he wus jus hostin it but, maybe if dey call it sumthin else, or like, if it wus #1michael #2janet #3usher #4chris brown… i could c it but, its jus cuz ders a LOT wrong wit da list,
cuz Where ARE mya n ginuwine 4 goodness sake n how is Usher fightin 2 stay in da top 10 n michael jackson aint #2 to NObody n i aint even a michael fan or anything n i luuuv chris brown he so amazin n stuff! but Usher aint far like that below chris, CmON, n evrything is wrong, Shakira over aaliyah? Umm Ok oh well!

BET, W-R-O-N-G!

Jennifer Lopez, Aaliyah, & Janet is all I care about and shouldve been higher

I agree with the ppl put in the list, however i DO NOT AGREE with the order-wat da fuk?-beyonce better than the originator TINA herself? nahhh blud, or C.Brown better than Janet? AHA-or even DIddY better thasn ciara? wat a joke!-thats some messed up list-as far as am concerend, it is TOO CURRENT and in no means demonstrative nor conclusive of the best dancers of our time.

but Sorri, Ciara not a great great dancer 2 me, jus sayin but w/e BET!

BET did everyone a disservice with this.

Even those who placed (high(er)) on the list cannot take it seriously. For example, if Bobby Brown, Missy, Kane, Diddy, Shakira, & Beyonce at all pay attention to someone like Ciara then they know she is better dancer than they are. These people know that they are not capable of her moves and could not hang with Ciara. So then they feel bad as they know they have been credited with something they do not deserve.

Oh and Beyonce should have not made it on the list neither should have daddy kane. OMG Bet was trippin

#381 I agree! Ciara needs to switch it up! All she does is that pop lockin shit! And she only has about 6 dancing videos. Oh Yeah Omarion is TIGHT too!

what the hell is missy doing on the list!!! GTFOH!!

WTF?
Ciara-25?
Diddy?
Missy-20?
This List Seems like it was just THROWN together by a buncha monkeys!

@ #40 no, U never seen a hyphy clowndancin krumpin rnb prince before ANYwhere Chris jus be bringin it! but, maybe its how r u gon have usher SOooo far below him AND janet behind him too n evrything like that NO! Oh well it don matter jus a dumm list n stuff

That list was funny. Dancing should not be based on how fast you move and how much shaking and gyrating you do. WOW BET is on Crake.

387, that is your opinion of Chris Brown. I for one, do not think he is that much of a dancer, but whatever!!!

This list is ridiculous. Beyonce can’t out dance Kelly….Big Daddy Kane couldn’t out dance Heavy D.,and that little white girl in her videos can out dance missy Elliott…..and where’s Re-Run…???

This is the weirdest list that I have ever seen.

I mean, just because Diddy and Jennifer Lopez chooses to dance all the time doesn’t make then great dancers.

And the order of this list is ridiculous–they placed MC Hammer and Chris Brown before Alvin Ailey, Gregory Hines and Savion Glover.

And then hey placed Jennifer Lopez before Tina Turner?

Just because J-Lo and Chris Brown are new-school artists don’t mean that they are better than the greats. It is because of the greats that they are even doing what they are doing.

**SMH**

ugh…. who said tina turner should not have been on the list? you wack!

i think they just gave chris the number 4 sopt because he hosted, if ciara hosted it would have been her. Janet should have been number 3. cuz ciara is original. chris brown not he do dances people be doing at parties.

Wheres the people who were on Soul Train back in the 70s/80s they danced way more better than this.BOOOOOOOOO @ this list.

Somethin aint right with this list…

393, he sure does. All of his moves are taken from the hood. People hype him up too far. You can find another one of him in any hood across the world. Please.

1. The Nicholas Brothers
2. Alvin Ailey
3. Gregory Hines
4. James Brown
5. Michael Jackson
6. Jackie Wilson
7. The Temps
8. Savion Glover
9. Prince
10. Josephine Baker
11. Tina Turner
12. Hammer
13. The Tops

Why don’t they take a poll using the greatest dancers on the list? Although I think Mike was better than Jackie Wilson, JB and Mike would have probably both ranked him ahead of them. Greatness has more to do with bringing something innovative to the table, and doing it for a long time. At least most of these listed young dancers acknowledged Mike as far as their inspiration, so I’m not gonna trip to hard with the list, but how did Chris Brown or Ciara even land on the list and they’ve been around collectively for about 5 years?

Ciara in no way deserve to only be #25. No, no, no.
Beyonce was too high on the list. Chris is a better dancer than Usher but he, too, was too high on the lest.

The whole order of the list was bogus.

I dont know what went wrong, but I definitely can say Ciara can dance her a** off.

What about Jody Watley ( she started on Soul Train )
she’ll out dance most of these crows on this list.

#397, when was you born 1932..???

JANET JACKSON BEST FEMALE DANCER OF ALL TIME. AND WILL ALWAYS BE!

I think that all the different dance styles of the artists on here clashed. I mean, who puts The Temptations, Ciara, and The Nicholas Brothers all in one group? To #371 ClarkThink, u are crazy to say that Aaliyah couldnt dance. Knowing u were one of the ones who tried to learn the steps to “Are You That Somebody?” Ppl kill me……

Umm I dont undertand why in the world Missy Elliot is on that list..

How the hell does Beyonce come before the late, great Aaliyah? all that bitch does is shake her ass! How in the hell does Chris Brown come before Janet?

I couldn’t believe the list either…I don’t even like Ciara but I know she should have been ranked higher than Beyonce.

Chris Brown before Usher? Is it just me or do I see a lot of Usher in not only Chris B’s dances but also his performances. I know he crunks a lot but that was just crazy.

Usher has to be at home pissed.

When did Beyonce become a dancer?? And why is Gregory Hines, Ciara, Rosie Perez, Aaliyah & Cab Calloway at the end. BET is so damn retarded!!!

ahhh hell nah…. ciara shud b wea chris brown at and beyonce iz not dat of a dancer except of her booty poppin and usher shud b higher and chris brown iz not better than janet usher etc….. diz iz juz sum bull shiet!!!! who evea made diz list waz STUCK ON STUPID!

i think omarion and ciara should be at the top,can somebody tell me how the hell p diddy got a higher place than ciara….that’s some messed up sh**

Has the folks at BET lost their minds? This list is as crappy as the “Black Couples” list back in February! The title of the show is the “25 Greatest Dancers of All Time”–which means in order for these dancers to be on this list, they need to be around for a long time. All the young people such as Usher, Chris Brown, Ciara, Missy Elliot, should not have been on this list. Instead, they should have been on the “25 Greatest Dancers of Our Generation”.

How in the heck did Beyonce post higher than Ciara? She just got her s**t tight? How did James Brown post high and Aaliyah post so low? Looks like money exchanged hands on this one.

Shit if they were going to put Big Daddy Kane up there they may as well put Scoop and Scrap Lover up there

Producers do things their own way for their own purposes. I didn’t even pay attention to the order becasue the show was boring. It so wasn’t what I expected and I love to watch dance. It wa sliek a way watered down version of those shows the do on VH1.

BET FELL OFF THE CHART OF “CREDIBILITY” A LONG TIME AGO FOLKS! MY 6 YEAR OLD NIECE COULD’VE CONCOCTED A BETTER LIST THAN THIS CRAP. BET IS AN EMBARRASSMENT TO ALL BLACK FOLKS WHO ARE PROGRESSIVE AND SHOULD BE CANCELLED. TVONE CAN REPRESENT AND IS DOIN IT WELL!

MAN…who really made this list…I agree…why is p.diddy on the countdown?
Ciara should have been up there with where chris brown was…she is nasty…how did BEYONCE beat CIARA?

Ciara is a NATURAL DANCER…beyonce is a choreographed dancer…

Beyonce before Ciara?? Get the hell out of here!! Ciara is a way better dancer than beyonce.

Beyonce before Jennifer Lopez??? That is a bogus ass list.

#15 you ain’t never lied about Maya and Paula being missing.

lol at diddy coming b4 cici

bet needs to get their sh*t together, because this list is all out of wack, straight ridiculous.

1. Beyonce is not a natural dancer. Not the best either. Over Ciara? Please.

2. Janet should jave been way higher. Like in the top 5. She paved the way for all these r&b singers TRYIn to dance. The only person who got it right was Britney Spears. I’d take her in the top 10 over Beyonce anyday!

3. Paula is missin. Girl used to get Down!

4. Um I love Diddy, but no!

5. I see why J-lo is on the list. She can di hop hop, salsa, and modern, etc. Being a great dancer is being VERSATILE.

6. Everyone can Booty-shake. Does not mean you’re a great dancer.

7. And sorry I’s switch #1 to 2. Michael can do James Brown’s moves with no sweat!

This list is BULLCRAP!

WHY WOULD THEY PUT

SHAKIRA

AND JLO

ON THE LIST AND FORGET

MYA

AND GINUWINE I MEAN COMMON

ISN’T THIS

BET’S LIST TOP 25

YOU KNOW IF IT WAS SOME HISPANIC LIST

THEY WOULDN’T PUT US ON THEIR

BUT WE NVM NOT WE

BET JUST HAD TO GO AND DO THAT

AND MYA

SHE CAN DANCE JEEZ

I DONT REMB WHICH PERSON SAID SHE COULDN’T PLEASE

THAT GIRL WAS TRAINED TAP DANCER SHE CAN DANCE VERY GOOD ACTUALLY

I’m so mad I got all these typos! lol

I don’t get it. between omarion, usher & chris brown. chris brown dances wayyy much better than the other two whether routine or freestyle. aaliyah should’ve been a lot more closer to #1 spot then she is and ciara, PLEASE mya can put that girl to shame. but my point is how are you gonna make a list like this and not include GINUWINE!

mkay, i’m tired of people saying that chris brown should be so low. he should at least be near the top ten. him and cici are like almost on the same level but he’s a bit more energetic. he’s so high because of his energy, and the fact that he doesn’t have to stop and plan his dance moves EVER and if there was a dance move someone wanted to do most likely he could do it! if this was a list for BEST dancers than the younger generation should be in front of the older generation, but since this is the TOP dancers i guess they put the older people on because they are what inclfuenced most of the young stars today like chris brown, ciara, beyonce, etc. speaking of beyonce, ya’ll ain’t giving the girl all her credit. she can do a lot more than the booty hop. watch D.C. - lose my breath, crazy in love, get me bodied, deja vu, ring the alarm. as a dancer i can say she’s got some crazy limbs and great the girl does deserve to be on the list. on another note i am very upset that paula abdul isn’t on the list

I am a dancer and when I saw this list I felt so insulted. They put James brown and Michael Jackson where their suppose to be. And For those of ya’ll saying Jennifer Lopez shouldn’t be on the list is wrong. Jlo can dance her butt off and especially in heels. I mean she was a fly girl on “In Living Color” for goodness sake! If you gotta do your research then go ahead and do it. Ciara “my girl” I was so disappointed that she was at #25. CiCi should have been atleast #3. Beyonce..I don’t even know where to begin…people overexaggerate this girl so much and that is why she won’t take a break!! I can do what Beyonce does at parties and clubs. I mean that’s what I have been doing before she came out as a solo artist. Yes she can move and perform but nothing of a legitimate dancer. I wanna know why the two girls from “Oaktown 357″ was not on the list. They danced for MC Hammer and those girls were incredible dancers. Where is Bobby brown,Ginuwine,Mya,Justin, and alot of legitimate dancers at? BET is a joke for real! They ain’t serious no more which is very disappointing!

mya who?? mya can’t put no one to shame not even amerie!! get a life. u know cici would murder mya in a dance battle.

#424 sticks p said: I don’t get it. between omarion, usher & chris brown. chris brown dances wayyy much better than the other two whether routine or freestyle. aaliyah should’ve been a lot more closer to #1 spot then she is and ciara, PLEASE mya can put that girl to shame. but my point is how are you gonna make a list like this and not include GINUWINE!

……………
@ #424 Jus sayin! lol tru dat, 2 evrything.

Well Umm i dunno if Chris is bettr den usher choreographed, n their stuff is jus 2 different from each othr 2 but, it still jus aint no WAY ushr is behind chris Dat much like, #11? wtf No u kno

Oh n New edition! yea dey 2 boring now and stuff but, one of BETs host wus jus sayin their leadsinger wus like tha bestest hiphoppy-leadsinger evr cuz if it isnt luv is da JOINT Omarion n his dancers be doin dat ontour sumtimes 2 luv it
But, jus 4 missin Mya Ginuwine Umm BET got EVRYthing wrong all Day But, Uh dey r kinna wack a LOT but w/e

why is it that ginuwine isnt even on the list? didnt all his videos make u anxious for the dance interludes??

beyonce can’t dance she can jus sing and look pretty! Ciara dance WAY better than most of them people! J.Ho hell no! Those Fly dancers off in living color were wack! ne way im too tired to finish…

BET DON’T KNOW SHIT ABOUT TALENT…IF THEY GOT BEYONCE’S NO TALENTED ASS @ NUMBER 8…SORRY SHE IS NOT NUMBER 9…SHE IS REALLY @ NUMBER 8 GOT TO BET AND SEE FOR YOURSELF

CIARA NUMBER 25 BUT P DIDDY @ 24????????? UMM LAST TIME I CHECK DIDDY WASN’T A FUCKIN DANCER..AND OL BOY CAN’T EVEN DANCE…….WHERE THE FUCK WAS GINUWINE????????

BEYONCE CAN’T DANCE….SORRY BUT UMM BOOTY SHAKIN AND THE SWINGING OF HER WEAVE AND DOING THAT SAME AZZ BOOTLEG CAT WALK..DOES DESERVE THE TITLE “DANCER” SHYT AIN’T EVEN WORTHY ENOUGH TO BE CONSIDER DANCING…CIARA SHOULD HAVE BEEN RIGHT BEHIN JANET JACKSON…BET DON’T KNOW SHYT….CIARA IS BAD WITH THE MOVES…TOO DAMN BAD…SHE CAN GET @ JANET JACKSON IF SHE WANTS….AND SHE CAN MOST DEFINETLY BUT A MOVE ON ALMOST EVERY SINGLE PERSON THAT IS ON THAT LIST…HELL SHE CAN POP HER AZZ TOO AND KNOCK BEYONCE OUT OF THE WAY

BET IS FULL OF SHYT..DAMN SHAME…THAT WHOLE PROGRAM NEEDS TO BE CANCELED…..CALL BET SOMETHING ELSE…….DUMB AZZES DON’T KNOW WHAT DANCING IS…YOU WILL THINK THEY WOULD AT LEAST KNOW THAT…BUT THEY DON’T….

Ciara’s dancing is lame. I am tired of seeing the exact same moves in every video. the like a boy video told it all. she should be happy for a 25 spot

@Dave D…you say Beyonce should be number 5 because you like porno. And that is what she is..a music porno artist

am not hating but y is beyonce on the list. b/c of a little but hopin’ & she is higher than cici&ali. am sorry but wtf. lol. diddy lmao. and where was mya tha girl can move. i think chris has talent, but higher than someone he copied from just seem a little crazy to me.

#429…MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY! What happened to Ginuwine? This list (for some on those list…*ahem* Chris Brown) is more like “Best Dancer of the Moment.”

WHY IN THE HELL IS p diddy and beonka on this list? Now there needs to be a line somewhere!!!!

@432…wtf…I think you mistaken Ciara for Beyonce…lol she does the same azz moves in every freakin video…and if she ain’t bustin one of her lame azz booty dances..she either copying off of another female artist….it’s either briney spears, janet jackson, jennifer lopez, ciara, and ect.

Oh hell and did ya’ll see Greenlight? HELL please tell she didn’t copy off of Amerie??????? HELL YES SHE DID…watch her video “1 thing” and then go back and watch Beyonce’s video “green light” she most def copied off of her…especially that part where she is playing the guitar and got the whit background and the white stairs and the band in the back…same shyt Amerie had…but she didn’t have a guitar.

BEYONCE AIN’T EVEN ORIGINAL…BUT YOU SAY CIARA DOES THE SAME SHYT??????? WHEN DOES SHE? BECAUSE SHE IS ALWAYS CHANGING IT UP…EVERTIME I SEE HER VIDOES AND SEE HER PERFORMING SHE IS CHANGING IT UP…THERE IS SOMETHING NEW

BEYONCE…YOU SEE THE SAME AZZ SHIT..SAME AZZ SHYT…IT’S JUST RIDICULOUS…SHE DOES THE SAME AZZ SHYT SOOO MUCH YOU ALREADY KNOW IN WHAT SHE GONNA DO BY HEART…BECAUSE SHE DOES THE SAME ASS SHIT..ALL THE DAMN TIME.

I’m wondering why Beyonce is on the list period!! All her dances are choreographed to the point that you can tell she can’t dance on her own. I know all videos are choreographed but you can tell she’s not a real dancer like Aaliyah, Ciara and Chris Brown…And please explain to me why Ciara is waay at the bottom of the list. These mofo’s who made the list are crazy.

THIS IS A JOKE….
12. Alvin AileY
21. Gregory Hines
19. Tina Turner
WHAT HAPPEN TO DEBBIE AND NEM’
THIS IS A LOAD A CROCK LOOK WHO THEY HAVE ON TH ELIST…WOW…..BIG DADDY KANE BOBBY BROWN..BEYONCE CANT DANCE…..SINCE WHEN DOES SHE DANCE BETTER THEN JLO
ITS ASHAME BC THIS IS ONLY FALSIFYING HISTORY…

DAMN SHAME…KIDS ARE WATCHING THIS ISH..MAN

I agree that Mya should defenitly be on there, I watched her perform this past weekend and she can really dance. And how can Ginuwine not b on there, isn’t that where most of these R&B rookies get there moves from. Y does BET even bother to re-air this crap! Who made this list anyway???!?? a bunch of crackheads.? If diddy’s on there then Hammer should be on the list.

SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS #174 TALKING ABOUT WHAT THE HELL DOES JANET BEING 40 HAS TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT SHE CAN DANCE? BUY YOUR SHIT LEGALLY PLEASE!!! KEEP LIVING BIRTHDAYS COME EVERY YEAR FOR EVERYONE

And another thing Bobby ” King of (R)ocks & (B)eer can not f***ing dance and niether can Missy’s fat ass. I think that BET wanted us to talk shit about this to boost their ratings, they know what they are doing.

WAIT HOLD UP..BOBBY MAY HAVE HAD SOME DRUG ISSUES BUT DONT LIE AND SAY OH BOY CANT DANCE BECAUSE BACK IN THE DAY WHAT WAS CALLED DANCING TRUST ME HE HAD THE MOVES !!!! SORRY

Who the F**** still watches BET ?!?!

Seriously.

Missy and Diddy can dance?….better than Ciara?!?!

Chris Brown better than Usher, ummmm……since when!

They might as well have added Cassie and Ashlee Simpson to the list.

“man lie…..women lie….but numbers don’t lie” lol!

But to me my girl AALIYAH would be in the top spot! (Top 5). Get over it life goes on…lol at lease there is a number 25.

@443–Bobby Brown didn’t shit but the pac-man and the f***ing running man and when he wasn’t doin that he was “Humping Around”—- once a crackhead, always a crackhead

Ciara hands down better dancer than Beyonce, Shakira, J-Lo, and Aaliyah(RIP) simply because she gets downnnnnnnnn and still dance like a boy. But against Janet in the Rythmn Nation video days…I don’t know I’m a give that one to Janet because to this day that video is still hot to death.

Now if u tell me to put Ciara against Mya…(sigh) that is a tough one. Take a look back at Mya’s history, the videos, CASE OF THE EX, MY LOVE IS LIKE WHOAH. Mya also has versatility just like Ciara, heels, snickers, tap dance, gets down, and choreography. Janet Jackson Icon tribute Mya killed it with the dance. And she does dances better than Beyonce, Shakira, J-Lo, and again (RIP)Aaliyah.

Look I’m going to keep it real. No..if BET can put Omarion, who can clearly dance better than Chris, on at #15…Chris should have been right there with him.

Usher is a soon to be legend in his own right to be placed at #4 right after Janet Jackson #3. Even though he dances better than her, but Janet set the bar for all females dancers period old or new, end of story.

Now if ur talking in terms who truly deserved to make an appearance on the list old or new….
Sammy Davis Jr. = legendary triple threat
Fred Astaire = style and grace
Mya = flawless experienced dancer
Paula Abdul = No Janet, J-Lo, etc.
Fatima Robison = creativity choreogragphy for MJ and Aaliyah (RIP)
Debbie Allen is it?(the lady from FAME don’t know if I got her name right) = FAME taught Janet too
Josephine Baker = sultry dancer with soulful grace
Genuwine = u can’t front

Oh almost forgot
TLC = What?!! Best Damn Girl Group Ever yall better recognized!!!

Left Eye REST IN PEACE, Crazy.
Chilli “ask Chilli would I be a silly ho” Sexy.
T-Boz still Cool as f**k.

UMM WHY IS BEYONCE BEFORE CIARA?

CIARA SHOULD ATLEAST VE IN THE TOP 5.JANET SHOULD COME RIGHT AFTER HER BROTHER.

SOMEBODY MUST BE SUCKIN’ SOMEBODY’S DICK BECAUSE MISSY,DIDDY,AND BEYONCE SHOULDN’T EVEN BE ON THERE

I DON’T CARE IF DIDDY STARTED OUT MOTHERFUCKIN’ TAP-DANCIN’,HE CAN’T DANCE..HE’S TOO STIFF.

MISSY…SHE JUST CAN’T DANCE

BEYONCE..YEAH I KNOW SHE TOOK DANCE CLASSES AS A CHILD BUT SHE CAN’T DANCE EITHER..BOOTY POPPIN’ AINT DANCIN’

BELLY DANCIN IS A TYPE OF DANCIN SO I SAY SHAKIRA SHOULD’VE BEEN IN THE TOP 10

REPLACE:BEYONCE,MISSY,AND DIDDY FOR:MYA,DEBBIE ALLEN,PAULA ABDUL

beyonce has 0 grooves and big daddy kane…aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaa..chris brown is just a better dancer than usher……
but where the hell is ginuwine at…most grooves ever

THAT LIST IS SHIT.

Said my piece.

What the hell is wrong with thast list??

Ciara at number 25 is just crazy, Diddy was plastic dancing in his videos and gets higher.

And as for CB gettin higher than Janet… well nevermind… it just proves that know one would take this list seriously. I think if CL had voted, we would of had a clear picture.

BET has definitely lost some points here. I cannot understand how Diddy and Missy made that list. Also, Ciara should have been higher and Beyonce lower. And there are quite a few other MISplacements.

On top of it…the worst thing is not MYA! And to think Mya even used to dance for BET lol. But that aside, Mya is a kick ass dancer and very versatile too and her tapping is great.

For whoever said Mya didn’t need to be on it and on top of it, Amerie is better than Mya? You are a damn fool. Amerie cannot dance!? Don’t let that very well choreographed “One Thing” video fool you. I don’t see where else she has danced so get yourself together now.

In summary, that list was straight crap. I can’t believe they even bothered. I am sure even celebrities are infuriated by that mock up list. BET, total let down and a total embarrassment.

P.S. And when did being in the limelight make you a dancer? Mya and Genuwine might’ve been down for a minute, but so too has Bobby Brown, MC Hammer and many others on that list so WTF?

Please 40 is not old Janet can still do the damn thang…if Tina can still “Shake a Tail Feather” in her 60’s and Eartha Kitt can kick her leg higher than any of us…in..her 70’s then Janet being 40 has nothing to do with her dancing ability…and no one taught Janet to dance….she already had the natural talent to dance and the same for Michael….Paula Abdul just did most of her chorography in her early days and Janet’s girl Tina Landon should be on there for her work with Janet during her “If” days….I agree with Mya should be on there….cause she was trained to do Tap and Jazz…..Shabba Doo and Turbo from the movies “Breakin” should be on there and the Rock Steady Crew….

i wouldnt have put diddy not a damn where on that list! and gregory hines shouldve been in the top 10. missy elliot…i dont know. i love beyonce but i wouldnt have put her on the list either. and i think as far as chris brown n janet one would have to measure their abilities as a dancer.

look back at janet’s dance moves are they really better then chris brown’c noooooo, he knows old dances new dances and the dude makes up his own damb dances he is way better then Janet and usher dont crunk dance, so yea chris is better then that and I say the show Chris just looks tired as of now it looks like he’s doing nothing but he’s working on a new album, and he’s working on new dances for new videos and is sitll trying to find the time to spend with his fam, come on you and erybody else should know that I star get’s no BREAKS.

AND YA’LL DONT EVEN KNOW THESE PEOPLE AND ARE CALLING THEM BY NICK NAMES (CICI) COME ON NOW, AND I AGREE DIDDY SHOULDN’T BE UP THERE HE CANT EVEN 2 STEP AND CIARA SHOULD BE 9, AND BEYONCE SHOULD BE 25 CUZ BEYONCE AINT ALL DAT WIT IT AND STOP PRAISING THESE PEOPLE YA’LL DONT KNOW DEM LIKE THAT.

DIDDI?? WTF
And where’s pcd? they’re really good dancers.

Lol at people asking why [insert white person here] isn’t on the list. This is BET. You know, BLACK entertainment television?

LOL if ya’ll think Ciara can out dance Janet. Maybe in a heel-and-toe or booty clap contest, Lmao. What the hell? Give me a break. I’d love to see that broad do real choreography. NONE of these chicken heads could fuck with “Rhythm Nation”. How you going to compare Ciara on her hands and knees hopping her butt on stage to Janet dancing hard as hell like in the Grammys ;WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME LATELY’ performance (in heels)?? Sumersaults and splits in The Pleasure riniciple/NastY? Ya’ll better act like you know. lol

Mizzeshy you are stupid as shit if you think Janet should be #25. And no, Michael did not get “all his moves” from James, that is false. He has his own style and is completely distinguishable in his own right.

With all due respect to James Brown (God rest his soul) I would still put Michael Jackson above him. That man owns EVERYONE. Yes, even the Godfather.

r u serious diddy 24!!! yeah thank god this is just a list!

that list was bullshit
ciara can dance but honestly, she should have been somewhere at the bottom along with chris brown
the list isn’t based on who’s hot now
its supposed to be greatest of all time, so some of you all are saying ciara should have been number 5? Think about it, is she really up there with Michael Jackson?
HELL NO
Nor his chris brown
that list was a joke
diddy shouldnt have even been on there
Beyonce can’t dance better than Usher
Diddy doesn’t dance better than Ciara
Bojangles wasn’t even on the list
it was just complete bullshit.
I dont even watch BET anymore. Its just coon nation. I’ll rather watch VH1 and youtube vidoes that I like!

ooh hell naw my gurl cici cant b 25th n hel naw TINA TURNER cant dance fo shiiit!!! n i luv Bey but 13 a lil too high fo her! lol

and by reading some of these comments…
u can tell the young people from the older people
gosh…
damn shame really
going back and fourth isn’t gonna change anyone’s opinions.
and personally, i feel beyonce dances way better than Ciara. Beyonce is a great performer. She’s kinda annoying but it is what it is. Also Mya dances better than Ciara too.
if you don’t believe me
go and watch “Case of the Ex” or “My Love is like Whoa”
and I’m still buggin that Ginuwine wasn’t even on there

WHAT THE BLAZES IS THIS SHIT?!!

Chris Brown should never EVER be @ no.4. He shouldn’t even be @ no.44! I don’t give a flying f*** if he can crump, hump or dump. Janet was the business and should’ve been top 3.

Paula Abdul and Tina Landon should also have been in there.

And if Chris Brown could get in the list (and he was presenting), why didn’t Fatima Robinson?

I rest my case.

At 463, it is rather presumptuous of you to assume that you can decipher which poster is from what generation. Don’t you think? Well, never mind what you think.

You are suggesting that Beyonce dances better than Ciara? Get serious. Perhaps, the smoke screen of weed has clouded your vision in your low income housing project apartment. Ciara actually dances (please refer to me previous posts for a more didactic explanation).

beyonce hada dance named afta her???mannnn please women been doin dat before “uh oh uh uh oh oh” mannnnn choke on nut! we call that booty poppin….. *rolls eyes*

I see Ginuwine was left off and he better than a lot of the younger cats out now, but has BET’s lists ever been accurate. When the did the sexiest women and had Lil’ Kim on the list I couldn’t even finish watching it.

Did they forget about Ginuwine? I know he hasn’t had anything out for a while, but he is a great dancer. Love Diddy and Missy to death, but they shouldnt have been on their. Big Daddy Kane????

What the hell is Ciara doing at no. 25? She should’ve been in the top 15 at least and Chris Brown ain’t got no business in the top 5. Why is Beyonce on the list especially as the no. 9 dancer? BET need to quit. They should’ve picked actual dancers because Missy, Beyonce, or Diddy qualify. In my opinion

Janet should have been closer to number 1. Chris Brown is a bit better dancer than Usher, for his age. How on earth did Beyonce get a higher spot than Aaliyah? That makes no sense. This was a list of 75% popularity and who is more famous or currently favored in the media, dancing must have only been 30% of the decision making, which allowed Oldies like Hammer and James Brown the respect they deserved on GP.

shut the F*ck up all u whose dissin chris coz he deserves that spot…ok, maybe usher and janet shouldve been higher, but chris still deserves that spot. Have u seen the boy dance??! wat he can do, i aint never seen anyone do..

But ciara definitely should not have been 25, man that’s an insult!

BUT wtf is ur problem “keep an eye on that fool something aint right”
There’s nothing wrong with chris brown, u need to stop hating!

There’s a reason why HE above usher and anyone else performed Thriller at the World Music Awards. He’s still young, but one day he’s gonna shine, and you all gonna get a smack on ur face for it

This list is crap I love Beyonce but she should have been a lot lower on the list IF she should have made it at all. I think the list should consist of dancers who can actually dance without a choreographer…..My girl CiCi should have definitely been a lot higher, and I cant believe Diddy made the list at all. BET is always messing up stuff

If you ask Beyounce she’ll tell you her sister Solange is a much better dancer than she is.

Shakira #1

I really don’t understand y CiCi was #25. But i think Usher should nave been up there but not before Chris. Chris a beast on da dance floor. Usher is to but I say Chris over Usher. Usher should of been like numba #6 or 7

WTF is wrong with BET they most was smoking when they made the list or they put the list Backwards cause my girl cici aint suppose to be #25

473. clarkthink said: “..If you ask Beyounce she’ll tell you her sister Solange is a much better dancer than she is”

Ahhh…that’s so sweet! My older siblings use to do that with me too! Telling me I was better at something just to help build my confidence! Knowing all the time they could run faster and jump higher! It’s called sibling love! Beyonce’ is the best big sister Solange could ever hope for, but I can’t imagine her doing the Beyonce’ dance! hehe!

Thanks for the info clarkthink!

I was outraged when I watched this the other day. That list is so jacked up, but I mean it is BET; they don’t really do anything right. Ciara, Aaliyah, and Janet Jackson should have hands down been above all the other females on the list.

Missy E. got good dancers she dont dance she bearly moves. Ciara #25 is the biggest force ive ever seen.
How the fuck is Diddy on the list, i mean cum on he dont even dance. And half those people on there taught Chris Brown how 2 dance this is sum bull shit!
Beyonce could dance and i luv her but i got 2 admit that she shouldn’t not have been #9, she should’ve been on the list but not #9. And yall c Ciara in that picture above,THat just fuckin shows that they’re wrong bout Cira. Did this list get jacked or sumthin cuz this is just fucked up! Dont even get me started bout Aaliyah, DAMN!!!!

Sum of yall is trippin. Yalls is actin like 2 ppl frum B.E.T. chose these dancers. I bet is wuz a vote among the ppl. So dont be dissin B.E.T. 4 sum jacked up shit.And sum of yall really forced it, Ciara could dance but she aint even that good. She be doin the same fuckin dance in every video.And Missy, Diddy, Daddy Kane, and Chris Brown shoulda never made the list.Yall read me, Chris Brown. U know y he shoulda never, cuz he learned how 2 dance frum Usher, Omarion, JJ & MJ. All he ever do is crump n e ways so he shoulda never made it. Beyonce on the other is an ight dancer, I mean yall is doggin this chic out on this site. she should’ve made the list but not all the way up there.

I knew something was wrong when I had seen this…I noticed Ciara 25. and that was it, I knew something was wrong, She was dead last!!!! So P.Diddy has better moves than her?? WTF!

This list is a joke… Michael Jackson should have been number one…. WTF… and Diddy? Dont even get me started… BET, you have lost your mind.

This list sucks!!! Usher, Hammer, and CIARA should be way higher!!! And where’s Ginuwine?

WhaT! Is you serious?! I’m really shocked about Ciara. she should have been on top of beyonce. beyonce can’t dance s***! how the hell is beyonce on top of Usher! usher is the all time legend. I respect michael’s score and james brown! BET messed up chris brown’s. he needs to be lower than that! Usher deserves #4. we’ve seen all da moves before that chris be doing. I ain’t hating on him but his score ain’t worth it, for sure! WHAT on top of USHER! messed up BET. Have u seen usher’s videos and his live performances! Chris steady imatating michael! he needa stop! Beyonce shouldn’t even be on da list at all! She sure can’t dance betta than ciara/usher. ya’ll lames just like her for her big ass. Ciara will kill that ass. now since when can diidy dance betta than cc! dis ain’t no top 25 best dancers. dis some just BET’s choice. GET THAT STRAIGHT YA’LL

im very disturbed by some of yall young idiots thinking that Ciara is a better dancer than Janet. Chris and Ciara are gimick dancers. what is chris’s career going to be like when crunk is out? i agree ciara should be a lot higher but in no way is this girl better than a legend, and since some of yall forgot hes a video of janet live at the grammys shes about the same age here as ciara is now.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5POnS9KEqs

some of yall catch a quick clue, never compare a rookie to a legend.

480, read.

This list is full of crap!

wtf is this travesty…greatest dancers of all time? This list doesent come close…dont get me wrong I like the artists on here..but wtf…so to be a great dancer you have to gyrate to popular music? Plz ciara has been out 3 or 4 years and shes the best dancer of all time? That goes for most of the creditless artists on here too..i.e. chris brown.

hello…ya’ll need to stop living in the past! This is a list representing TODAYs dancers…and since Usher’s been out of the scene for like 2 years now, its not BETs problem that he decided to dissappear. so he deserves maybe a higher rank, but its not BETs fault. Also CHRIS is TODAYS dancer. Stop hating on the kid…i bet none of ya’ll could do wat he’s done between the age of 16-18! get with it

What bull ish!! Ciara tops THEM ALLLLL

I cant believe some of you are actuall trippn because ciara was #25 lets face it the girl can move but she aint no legend in the makin and all of her moves are repeats. the only thing that she ever did that janet didnt do was the matrix and Im pretty sure janet would kill it if she tried. to even but ciara and janet in the same sentence is bogus people just hype ciara up because she is young but everyonce knows janet will dance circles are over that child. Ciara omarion chris brown beyonce etc should have been at the bottom of that list. No legends should have been towards the back and yall also have to remember that there are so many styles of dancing thats why shakira and other people are on there too. beyonce is a trained dancer and ciara is a natural dancer…..so what whether you are trained or not if you can dance you can dance and thats it period. ciara and the rest of them newbies know they cant hold a candle to these older cats. janet deserved to be the top female dancer because she is

are you people fukin crazy..?!?!? Chris Brown is EXACTLY where he should be !! hes an incredible dancer !! Don’t hate on him because hes higher than ur choice of better dancers.. cuz hes GREAT !! but.. ciara en some others should be higher..

wut the..?? Chris Brown is EXACTLY where he should be !! Hes incredible !! Don’t hate on him just because he is higher then your choice of “better” dancers. Hes great, so be ahppy for him because there is nothing you can do about it !! Ciara and some other dancers should be higher on the list then they are though.

Just to let all of ya’ll know this is chris brown’s future talkin’. chris is a wonderful dancer; so talented and usher and ciara and mj and mc hammer and jb and omarion. so all ya’ll haters hating on dem needs to stop. ya’ll just mad cause you can’t dance good like dem and if u don’t thimk they can dance, ya’ll must not know what dancing is!! go check out cc’s, chris’s, and usher’s videos/live performances and look at dem move, the way its supposed ta be done! ya’ll needa stop hattin’ on shakira cause she know how to dance. at least betta than B! she good at da belly dancin and moving dem hips. ya’ll can’t do dat so shut the fuck up! da only person who shouldn’t belong there is bitch beyonce ugly fatt ass. shit! i can dance betta than that ugly slut! she needa gone somewhere and find something for her ta do thats just right for her. i’m getting tired of her same lame videos and moves. and i sure am getting tired of her booty shaking. ANYBODY can do dat. and ya’ll hatas like saying usher ain’t young and chris is… it’s not the top 25 young dancers it’s for any ultimate best dancers. GET THAT STRAIGHT. it’s a difference stupid! michael is old and james usher ain’t da only one if u haven’t notice! BET just messed up on usher’s score, ciara’s score and B needa gone somewhere out of dat list! other than dat all of dem can dance.

yall need to shut the f*** up and stop hating on people damn at least your favorite artist or something is on the damn top 25! i dont know why the hell yall hating on chris brown..the ish aint even necessary!!Hating on someone damn talents doesnt lead to anything..what if u was on the top 10 of something and u been treated hurtfully? you wouldnt like that wouldnt u? no chris brown did not stole no ones moves..cause he practice alot..all of the dancers did!! and a lot of the dancers inspirations are janet and michael jackson..so of course they gon share a few of their moves! yall sound so stupid whoever hates on other people..especially chris brown..yall some haters and dont need to waste yall time hating on people..well im done for now..ill be back..but if u have any other thing to say to me hit me up at pw4l_06@yahoo.com if u got something to say..and im out..

Deja

Chris should have been in the top .He is branging a whole new dance to the stage. Usher never had moves like this. Ciara dances better than bee and Janet.

I agree with 410: you cant compare dancers like Janet nd Michel to people such as usher nd chris b coz dance i think is so much more different now!!

Also yall need to stop hatin,chris is a much betta dancer that Omarion hands down and betta than Usher… If they were to battle then usher and Omarion would be slaughtered by chris b.

Beyonce cant dance, ciara is a much betta dancer, BET is a joke. FULL STOP!!

Usher sings live better and dances better than Chris all that boy does is crump there is nothing innovative about jerking ur body to a point where u think that the kid just have a.d.d. This is no hating this is fact and plus Omarion dances better than this kid anyways. I was quite suprised they put him at #15 and let Chris go higher than him or Janet. BET yall on some high undefined drugs. I don’t care what anybody says BET is playing favortism for hot artists of now. They failed to aknowledge other artists that deserved to be on the countdown artists who’ve been dancing for years. Please check urselves. The fact that they named it “of all time” is joke on BET themselves.

All I can say is TISK TISK TISK, BET yet again messed a something good in black culture, yes they did it again. But honestly there will always be controversy to this list because it is true that a few great dancers were left out and the order is completely wrong. But its clear that everyone in the world jus about agrees that chris brown shouldnt e in the top, yet alone the top 15, usher got seriously disrespected by this, why is diddy, missy and Bog daddy kane on the list, clearly ginuwine is a better dancer than all three and he’s not mentioned, debbie allen, charlie atkins, paula abdul, and there are several more to name, Ciara is a better than beyonce at dancing, as said beyonce is a great entertainer performer, there is a difference, and aaliyah made the hip roll famous, a lot of people for get she should be a lil lower, this list is a joke and BET has put out another disappointment yet again, whats next to mess up, the top 25 singers of all time??

SOMEONE TELL ME WHY THE HELL CHRIS BROWN WAS NUMBER 4..HE IS TOO OVER RATED..HE HAS ALOT TO PROOVE FIRST HE ONLY HAS LIKE WHAT ONE ALBUM OUT.. AND USHER SHOULD BE NUMBER 3 OR 4..WHY THE HELL IS DIDDY EVAN ON THE LIST..AND OVER CIARA AT THAT..BET IS LOSEING THERE MINDS..AND HOLD UP MYA WASNT ON THE LIST EIGHTHER..AND I DONT CARE WHAT NO ONE SAYS IF MISSY CAN BE ON THE LIST THAN WHY CANT GINUWINE BE ON THE LIST..HE IS A BETTER DANCER THAN DIDDY..BEYONCE CANT DANCE BETTER THAN CIARA..THIS LIST IS VERY DISRESPECTFUL

BET IS WACK! WE NEED A NEW BLACK ENTERTAINMENT CHANNEL THAT HAS SOME SINCE. THIS LIST IS WACK, THEN DID YOU HEAR ROB JOHNSON ON THE TOPIC OF IMUS!?! WTF BLACK FOLKS, WE NEED CHANGE BAD!

People I just realize maybe I was being a little hard on Chris. The boy can dance maybe he did deserve to be on the top ten, but no higher than Omarion, Usher and Janet. Chris Breezy is doing his thang, but to me he has to earn it just like these folks work their butt off as entertainers.

who wrote dis damn list how tha world did ciara get #25. tha worst thang about is diddy is higher than her he cant even dance bet is messing up bad because i waz angry 2 see dat beyonce ass waz in front of ciara which waz sum bull. ciara should have #1 or top five somebody needs 2 get fired for dis

This is what I think shouldv’e happened on Top 25 Dancers Of All-Time:
25: Tina Turner
24: Rosie Perez
23: The Temptations
22: Chris Brown
21: J.Lo
20: Shakira
19: Diddy
18: Gregory Hines
17: Cab Calloway
16: Missy
15: Omarion
14: Bobby Brown
13: Darrin Henson
12: Beyonce
11: MC Hammer
10: Savion Glover
9: Prince
8: Aaliyah
7: Big Daddy Kane
6: Usher
5: The Nicholas Brothers
4: Janet Jackson
3: Michael Jackson
2: James Brown
1: Ciara

Chris Brown should be #27. We see the same dancing outside, everyday.
Chris Brown lovers, get over it! He doesn’t do anything unique!

OKAY PEOPLES…I think we can all agree that a bunch of old office executives came up with this list. Chris was in the top 5 because lil buddy is hella talented and has a bright future with dance and he hosted the damn show! Janet is old…she is like dance history, but we haven’t heard too much from her lately. Hammer??? Well nuff said. Bobby Brown was great then, but what is HE doing now? James Brown is dead…not going to be seeing nothin new from him. Tina Turner? Retired…but its safe to say what you think doesn’t matter cuz BET does whatever they want and can put whomever they want on THEIR list. Not to sound like a smartass, but just saying… :-p

lol. No I totally agree with u. U don’t sound like smartass more like a dumbass…James Brown deserve respect dead or alive, if it wasn’t for him no Michael Jackson, Usher, Ginuwine, Omarion, Chris Brown, etc. Tina Turner at 60 yrs old can dance circles around Beyonce. Holla!

As a dancer, I think the list is pretty accurate with the exception of ciara, aaliyah, and usher. If anything they all should have been at least in the top ten. But why hate on Chris Brown? Personally I think he’s one of the most talented people out there right now. He deserves to be in the top spot because I know he busted his ass to get where he is now. And I seen him perform live, twice. And he is one hell of a performer to be his age. And his dance moves I have never seen them performed like he does it. I understand that everybody has their own opinion, but I can’t hate on anybody that’s out there doing the damn thing right now. If anything I congradulate all of the people on that list… including Mr. Chris Brown.

He is number 4….come on now. that is not very believable.

HOW THE HELL DID BEYONCE BEAT USHER, CIARA, OMARION, J.LO AND AALIYAH?! Uhhh Beyonce really can’t even dance. She does the same moves with small modifications in each video….

that’s fuckin wack!

i think that all this top 25 dancer shit sucks coz Diddy cant be better than Ciara i mean that the girl has more tactics than him and Omarion and Usher shud have been in the top 10 not the top 15 coz that is degrading them.

i think that tis list wasnt fair enuf Omarion and Usher shud have been in the top 10 n Diddy doesnt beat Ciara in dancing they shud lets us vote on these things coz we are the ones who watch and we know what looks good and what isnt good.

BET WAIT A MINUTE MOTHERFUCKER—– DON’T NOBODY FUCK—-UP A DANCE FLOOR LIKE CIARA PRINCESS HARRIS. WHY WOULD SHE START A DANCE COMPANY IF DANCING DIDN’T COME FROM HER SOUL.? BET YOU ARE ONLY SUPPORTING BEYONCE BECAUSE SHE BEEN IN THE GAME LONGER. CIARA KEEP BEING PUNK BY HER OWN PEOPLE, LIKE HOW TERRENCE FONDAL HER AND MADE HER UNCOMFORTABLE ON DECEMBER 06 2006. NOBODY YET IN HISTORY IN THE MUSIC GAME HAVE EVER BROUGHT IT LIKE MS CIARA, SHE WOULD AGREE TO DANCE OFF WITH ANYONE, AIRED THAT.

That whole entire countdown was a mess!!! the top 3 females should of been AALIYAH

aint no way in hell ciara come in 25th and chris brown can dance but not all dat daymn to come in 4th place.

ok now THAT is NOT FAIR! Ciara deserves better, man! And mike! e should be numba 1

are your killing me beyonce is one of the best dancer did your see her at the mtv award when she got low to the floor like ciara did in like a boy your need to pay more attention to tv cause me girl b can break it down!!!!!

Thats bullshit Ciara 25? lol thatz gotta be a joke. The list is aight but the order is shit.

I think that Aaliyah should of been higher, and for all you haters Ciara is just trying to copy Aaliyah. As my friend told me to be the best you gotta be like them . For example in her promise video didn’t she wear something similar to what Aaliyah wore in the are you that somebody video? Hooking up with missy like aaliyah, Nobody will ever replace Aaliyah no matter how hard they try…

I was shocked, outraged, and confused as to how and who put this list of people together…Sammy Davis, Debbie Allen, and others were missed….some great ones were there, M.and J. Jackson, Greg Hines, and James Brown….Shakira - I don’t stink so….Chris Brown - too high, and anyone who is influenced by another dancer should be listed in a higher position….How can Savion Be lower than Greg…..There would be NO Savion if Greg didn’t teach him….along with others…Many of those women were infuenced by Janet yet get a better position on the list…That right there makes the list null and void…Plus how do you compare Usher to A. Alley - Usher is an entertainer and Alvin created a style that is named after him because it is so original . The Nicholas Brothers, Janet, even J.lo and Rosie are great list choices - But there are enough original dancers and Choreographers that could have made this list much more attractive. When an entire style is named after you (Bob Fosse) how can you be left off the great dancers list??????

why the fuck is ciara top 25 she should 0f been in the top 10 at least get real what the fuck was you thinking puting ciara on 25 ya must cant see becuz she dance way better than some of those singers on that fucking list dont ever put ciara on 25 that damn list look like a damn foul with ciara top 25 how damn dumb can bet get

O.kay this is how its goin down aiight I do not know y yall is hatin on chris brown he deserves where he is on the list because before the show started they said the canidates were based on there dance skil and there and perforemences and there ability to inspire.Just based on that he deserves where he is at.so stop hatin on him!!!!!!!!!!

U kno what yall needa stop hatin on Christopher Maurice Brown he was nuber 4 personally I think it was the right 4 him.I think Ciara koulda been higher n yall jus needa ouit freakin hatin

wat is goin on?…why is diddy on this list?…and WHY is he ranked higher than ciara?…usher and omarion needs to b higher on that list for real.

Still think Chris is too high for a dancer. 25 is where he belongs. Janet can dance circles around that youngin.

Jus so u no I was 522 and I personally think the list was right cuz ummmm….jus based on the performances the people on the list give they deserve 2 b where they r at

SOME OF THE VIEWERS NO NO IDEA ABOUR LEGENDS…
JOSEPHINE BAKER AND DEBBIE ALLEN ARE GREAT. TINA TURNER IS THE GRAND FEMALE DANCER OF HER TIME…
COMPARE BEYONCE ON THE KENNEDY HONORS OF PROUD MARY TO TINA IN 1970 ON ED SULLIVAN. THERE IS NO COMPARISON. TINA DANCES HRDER THAT ALL OTHER FEMALES IN THE BUSINESS. WE MUST NOT FORGET THE PAST…

Oh, and let’s not forget Willi Ninja. He blew up that whole “voguing ” thing for Madonna, and he taught chics how to work the catwalk…

who ever said that ciara was a better dancer than aaliyah need to kill yourselves ciara dances like she’s trying to hard and aaliyah was just smooth with it ciara is more of a hip hop dancer shaking her ass and shit aaliyah was a real dancer she did more choreography dances if aaliyah was shaking her ass like ciara wack ass i wonder what you clowns would be saying anyways aaliyah would dance circles around ciara i mean come on she got a 4.0 in dance ciara= not a very good dancer

B.E.T. Is A Joke! I agree with the list (except diddy) they just should have put them in a different order.

This whole list is wacked out.Bet needs to do some more researchin on the topic.A dissapointment 4 sure…

The list is plain f**ked up. I dont know how much some artist paid BET to get them on the list.

#1 James. He is what started all this. Michael learned from him so we need to pay respect to the old guy. But if you are really taking about best talent no doubt its Michael. Just look at those videos of him dancing when he was 10.
I dont care about the rest. Most of them are not good enough to be mentioned.

Top 5 to me:
#1 James Brown (Respect. But Michael should be #1)
#2 Michael Jackson
#3 Usher
#4 Janet Jackson
#5 Ciara

I wanna kno who said that about chris brown cause they most be a lil cracked or just plan stupid for trying to play chris brown like that cause they got the wrong one. then chris brown the is best dancer ever

This list is still wrong. Everyone is misplaced, espcially a person at number four.

the list tight but were pretty ricky and chris brown should be third

First of all…WHY THE HELL WAS CIARA #25?????????? She can easily outdance literally half the ppl on that countdown. (Yea, i’m talking mainly about Beyonce!) Ever since Ciara came out i guess Beyonce has felt the need to compete being that Ciara is a true threat in the R&B Females slot! But all Beyonce does is imitate Ciara…Think about it. Ciara’s “Like A Boy” video and Beyonce’s “Upgrade U” video. Beyonce dresses up like a boy while the girly Beyonce dances around her!!! Too similar! And Beyonce never died her hair black until Ciara did it! Hell…she’s inspired by Ciara! Also, ever since Ciara’s been out, she’s also been known as CiCi or just “C”. Now Beyonce wants to become “B” all of a sudden?!?!? They DEFINITELY should have their switched spots on that countdown! Ciara has NATURAL talent with dancing. Beyonce has nothing more than CHOREOGRAPHICALL skills. Beyonce…ya can’t get on CiCi’s level chick…

Let’s see…

CIARA can easily outdance…

/Diddy(oh please!)
/Big Daddy Kane(whatever!)
/Rosie Perez(in her sleep.)
/Missy(come on now…yall saw the “1,2 Step” video!)
/Tina Turner(of course!!!)
/Aaliyah(yea, yall kno itz true!)
/Shakira(yea…CiCi can belly dance too. But I bet Shakira can’t wind &rock her hips like Ciara!)
/Bobby Brown(seriously ppl.)
/Omarion(DEFINITELY!)
/Jennifer Lopez(yep…)
/Beyonce(even though she tries, Beyonce cant compete!)
/MC Hammer(yea C can move her legs around too!)
/Prince(not even a real dancer!)
/Janet Jackson(Ciara perfected ur moves at age 7!)
/Chris Brown(with ease!)

Ciara should’ve easily been in the top 5!!!!

My Top 5 Picks:

1.Michael Jackson
2.James Brown
3.Usher
4.Ciara
5.The Nicholas Brothers

Are you serious??? First why Diddy on the list he just can turn on hiself!!!! Then Ciara 25? Not agree… The order is not well done and it missed some people like Justin timberlake or Columbus short!!! If you are not agree e-mail me Lol. Writting from Paris….

How the hell CHRIS Brown beat out Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, Omarion, Jennifer Lopez, Usher….. Just because he was the host don’t mean shit, B.E.T should be a shame of themselves. I think yall was on Crack when yall picked the top 25.

Aaliyah, Ciara and Shakira are better than Beyonce to me and to be honest Usher should have been way higher up than he was…this list sucks !

Ciara Shud hav been in the top five Aaliyah shud hav been in the top 5 Usher and thts tht it shud hav been Ciara bein #1 Usher bein #3 or #2 Michael bein #3 and Aaliyah bein #3 or 5 and Janet bein #4 or 5 and Chris Brown shud hav been waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

I DO NOT agree with this list at all, how is Ciara number 25 but Diddy is before her. And how are Omarion, Usher, Ciara and Jennifer Lopez not in the top 10? Beyonce can dance, I will give her that, but she should not have made it on the list higher than any of the names I just mentioned. And what happened to Ginuwine?????

Just saw this list last night, and I agree that Debbie Allen and Fatima were glaring omissions, and so is my idol, Frankie Manning. Most people don’t know who Frankie is, but he is one the original swing dancers from the 30’s in Harlem and practically invented the dance! He was a technical (dance) advisor for Spike Lee’s Malcolm X. Go to YouTube and check him out in Hellzapoppin’! The man is in his 90’s now and still teaches–let’s see if Chris Brown (#4?) can say that in 70 years!

I think they made a good choice by putting James Brown at #1 and Michael Jackson at #2 because Michael Jackson said that James Brown was his idol..That a good choice but I’m a Chris Brown fan and all but how in the hell he made number 4 before
Usher and Janet Jackson….Chris Brown could had been #10 or something..Then only reason he #4 was he was co-hosting it…And how Ciara became #25? To Me..I Was suprised that Mya didn’t make it.

HOW DA HELL CHRIS BROWN MADE IT BEFORE ALVIN AILEY, GREGORY HINES, AND CAB CALLOWAY!! I THINK HE COULD HAD BEEN 15 OR 10 DON’T NOT NO FOUR!! CIARA SHOULD HAD A HIGHER NUMBER..AND IF MISSY A FEMALE VERSION OF HEAVY D WHERE HE ON THE LIST.. CHRIS BROWN A GOOD DANCER AND ALL BUT U NEED TO SEE HIM TO MORE THINGS BEFORE MAKING NUMBER 4 AND WHY WAS LAURIE ANN GIBSON ISN’T ON THE LIST THEY NEED TO MAKE BET’S TOP 50 DANCERS OF ALL TIME.

I love and respect JAMES BROWN and everthing he’s done not only for blacks but for people as a whole but that boy name MICHAEL…..

I didn’t know about this countdown back in April, it’s on again tonight (Sept. 10, 2007). I thought for sure my girl would be on the list but she’s not. What a load of crap. How could they not have included PAULA ABDUL. Half the women on that list were most likely inspired by Paula. Like her or hate her, there has been no better dancer in pop music before or since Paula. Give the girl her due - this list is crap.

JANET JACKSON IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST DANCER THE PLANET HAS EVER SEEN. Madonna, Britney and Mya should have shown up wayyyyy before dumb asses like Diddy and Missy.

…and so should Paula Abdul…she rocked it during her time.

I see you ciara had that questions mark after that 25 on her robe……im just wondering why was diddy and missy elliot on this list and above ciara…….whoeva voted had 2 be a hater…….ciara definety had to be in the top 10…….but i was happy 2 c aaliyah ranked higher than ciara….

Personally, Michael is my all-time #1. I’m not mad at them for putting James Brown at #1 although I thought the montage of him was absolute shit. And where’s Jackie Wilson? He’s responsible for James Brown AND Michael Jackson. Chris Brown: I give him credit but not #4. Sorry, Prince can rip it, say what you want about his style of dress but he can move better than any female wearing high heels. Bobby Brown is responsible for this generation’s R&B singers so he deserved to be put up there. What the hell was Rosie Perez doing up there??? I could go on forever and ever but it wouldn’t make a difference. BET has disappointed us once again.

Man dat lisa messed up n how the hell beyonce in top 10 above aaliyah and ciara hell naw she cant dance and how chris brown above all the good people dats crazy aaliyah posed 2 be in top 10 along wit the best

Beyonce, Diddy and CHRIS BROWN (!!) don’t belong anywhere near that list.

Beyonce is just a wannabe Tina Turner.

Diddy, what dancing has he ever done?

Chris Brown, basically copying Usher trying to be Michael Jackson. Sit down lil fool.

BET dont know they shit anymore!
