BET's Top 25 Dancers of All Time

I came across this list yesterday and I wanted to slap someone...lol
According to Black Entertainment Television, this is the top 25 dancers of all time...
Check out the list...

25. Ciara
24. Diddy
23. Big Daddy Kane
22. Rosie Perez
21. Gregory Hines
20. Missy Elliott
19. Tina Turner
18. Aaliyah
17. Cab Calloway
16. Shakira
15. Omarion
14. Bobby Brown
13. Jennifer Lopez
12. Alvin Ailey
11. Usher
10. The Temptations
09. Beyoncé
08. Savion Glover
07. MC Hammer
06. Prince
05. Janet Jackson
04. Chris Brown
03. The Nicholas Brothers
02. Michael Jackson
01. James Brown

Who agrees with this list?
And what the hell is Diddy doing on that list?

Me I no gree lai lai. James Brown is the best dancer of all time? He must have been a great dancer to have nabbed the number one spot, but he didnt dance in my time so I no gree. (I'm sorry if I sound ignorant, but I never saw him dance so...)

This is my own list
1. Michael Jackson
2. Janet Jackson
3. Chris Brown
4. Ciara
5. Usher
6. Beyonce
7. Jennifer Lopez
8. MC Hammer
9. Omarion
10. Justin Timberlake
11. Shakira
12. Aaliyah
13. Genuine
14. Missy Elliot
15. Paula Abdul

So let's debate...
Who's the best dancer of all time? And do you agree that Chris Brown is a better dancer than Usher and Omarion?

  2. Hey 1st :)

    Mos def, Chris Brown is a better dancer than Usher and Justin. But I think Usher and Justin are a close tie sha.. you for make them 5 & 6 and not Justin #10

  3. Just because he didn't dance in your time doesn't change the fact So have you seen Michael and the others dance then?. James Brown inspired Michael Jackson by his own admission. Missy Elliot dances in music videos, but that doesn't make her a dancer. Beyonce is not a dancer and neither was Aaliyah

  8. Linda your list shows that you haven't chosen to expose yourself to true entertainers of yesteryears. Usher wouldn't dance the way he does without the Nicolas brothers doing it first, Jennifer Lopez was influenced by the modern dance of Alvin Aileys Dance company, even Janet Jackson featured Cab Calloway in her video. The list you compiled is strictly for the younger generations who have been robbed of real music.

  10. Linda i think i would adjust ur list a little bit.Shakira should come before beyonce.When shakira was compared with beyonce,shakira won so like i said she should come before beyonce.Chris dances better than usher that i agree.
