    HOW THE BEYONCE DIDDY AND MISSY ELLIOT GET IN FRONT OF CIARA

    Those aren’t even dancers. There singers, they got choreographers. Even the the ones that don’t are just very limited in originality. I disagree with every single one on the list, exept the nicholas brothers.

    Fo Real They have bobby brown, Diddy, Missy… Where is Sammy Davis Jr. The man paved the way for black dancers. And Georgy Hines 21. Get the fuck out of here. Who ever made this list just shit on past. BET is going down the drain

    1) Where the hell is Sammy Davis Jr.?

    2) How do people like Beyonce, Shakira, and Bobby Brown get ahead of Gregory Hines?

    Sigh, BET is such a joke

    Arthur Miller is where?
    Albert Evans?
    Rasta Thomas, Danny Tidwell?

    And of course, how could they not have Desmond Richardson?

    This list is pathetic. It’s along the lines of MTV’s notorious year 2000 countdown of the best songs of the millennium with the number one spot going to the Backstreet Boys. Mozart rolled over in his grave that night just like I’m sure many great dancers are doing now.

    Where are THE Legends – Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Sammy Davis & Ann Miller? All of which have inspired the rest with their talent! Also Savion Glover shudn’t be higher than Gregory Hines, Wade Robson shud be on the list & Ciara in the top 5!

    Really, no Sammy Davis Jr. or Fred Astaire? That is first of all ridiculous and secondly, it’s straight up racist, and im black as the night. At least you put James Brown #1 i agree with that but look at how many moves M. Jackson stole from both SD Jr. and F. Astaire. get a clue morons.

    MJ is number one.. sure he got some of his moves from James Brown, but the things he can do can not be replicated by anyone. Michael was blessed with a God-given natural talent! He should be number one before any of these wack dancers!

    MJ should def be number 1. no one comes close

    Just me or????

    This is USA based:

    The US has about 50% of the worlds best dancers.

    BTW: Where are Fred Estaire (Tap Dancer) and Michael Flatley (Irish Dancer)

    The list is utter bollocks.
    It all looks like hip hop era dancers.

    When I saw that MC Hammer made the list on wikipedia, I just really wanted to see who was at #1. I was really hoping for Michael Jackson but this list was disappointing. MICHAEL JACKSON IS NUMBER 1. He’s incredible, amazing, SUPER OUTSTANDING. I wouldn’t publish this list if MJ wasn’t on top!

What do you think?
