  • Janet was BOSS'N it!

  • she looks sooo hott and this is one of her greatest performances!!!

  • If anyone notices, ALL of Janet's backup dancers are wearing costumes from her previous videos!!! I've NEVER seen that before!!! That's a DAMN ICON FOR YO' ASS!!!

  • dvd quality version of this video is on janethqvideos

  • Damn Janet show us how it is done!!!!

  • who fuckin with janet? NOBODY BITCH!! TRUE QUEEN OF POP!! LOVE U JANET!

  • this is the most relaxed i have ever seen her in a performance!! it was hot!!

  • brianrashad  Where was this performance at and what year was this?

  • @geneanboynton 2001 from MTV's first ever Icon show

  • @geneanboynton MTV's 1st ever ICON show back in may 2001

  • True QUEEN OF POP <3 

  • Now That's What You Call TALENTED!!!!!!! Fuck With It !

    LOVE YOU JANET!!!

  • I miss Janet. Sick of Beyonce.

  • Im sorry, beyonce is talented, but she will is not legend. When you go for 25 years non stop as Janet did, then you have earned that title. Its entirely to early to consider beyonce a legend. Lets see if Beyonce is performing 18 years from now. Im sorry, but she is not what everyone makes her out to be. Shes just another talented artist. but when she can do something original and stop stealing other people songs/performances, then Ill have some respect for her. I dont respect a crook.

  • ya bb u go girl luv it

  • lol janet has short legs(shes 5 foot 4 anyway).u guys should check out her song slolove its really good needs more views.:(

  • @janetjfriend OMG I fuckin' love "Slo Love" its one of my Top 5 Janet songs ever!

  • I love that pose she does with her arm up and her hand arched at 1:05. I also loved her one-of-a-kind DIVA entrance when she came down out of the ceiling. I also liked when she was dancing and the music came to a halt. The announcer said there were some technical difficulties and soon after that she broke out into a solo dance. Only Janet can make a performance like this. Every show is so different. You never know what to expect with Janet. That is why she is a legend and an icon.

  • they better honor Aaliyah too...the girl did the damn thing, matter fact she has all them other wannabes jacking her style. She influenced all those who came after her. And thank you Janet for setting the standard!!!!!!!!!!

  • when I watched this 10 years ago... the part at 4:25 I was like OH NOOO her performance is ruined... JANET'S GREAT

  • best performance ever!!!!

  • I'm a Janet stan, But some of you Janet stans talk to much trash about Beyonce it is sick. smh

  • @Brodie2006

    I agree. Beyonce has worked hard to get where she is, she has great work ethic and has earned everything. She is talented and will also be a legend.That being said...I ♥ Janet!!

  • @Brodie2006 Yeah, Bee is really talented her songs are just garbage though.

  • @Brodie2006 I agree. Leave Beyonce' ALONE! She (or nobody else) don't give a damn what y'all say & her music is NOT garbage! I been a Janet & Beyonce stan for as long as I can remember!

  • @JameseGray1991 Blasphemy! being a stan of both is like liking the sixers and the Lakers. Not likely in this case it really is one or the other. I like some of Bey's Material, I will be on team Janet 4life!

  • Arrr Yea i loves it lol

  • Wow! I love Shaq's facial expression. Lmaoo .

  • if Beyonce came out when Janet came out...do you think they'll choose Beyonce over Janet? HELL NO

  • YES. bish WERK. this is a PERFORMANCE!

  • Rihanna take notes Sweet heart ! #done

  • @beanfresh09 LOL Rihanna could never! still til this day i cant understand why rihanna is succesful? shes a lazy ass performer and cant sing for shit! sounds like a goat in a heatwave

  • Some People say janet is underated? I think not! The words would nver come out of my mouth as a fan and just as a person that admires her talents.The music industry is different and i think thats why janet is turning to acting for now.Just because she aint on every radio station or music vidoe channel does not mean janet has lost her stardom.Her book "True You" went to 1# on the Ny times best seller list.She aint done.Next role for janet Broadway playing Eartha Kitt.How amazing would that be.

  • @jacobR1377 tell em i hate when ppl say she underated.

  • @jacobR1377 Janet most definitely is underrated. Everyone talks about Madonna.

  • @TheNaturalSpark2 no she doesn't she and mike are the best

  • Including Janet, there are nine people on stage so in terms of outfits, I believe I saw: All for You, If, Alright, Rhythm Nation, Scream, Runaway, What's It Gonna Be, Doesn't Really Matter and Escapade. Am I right?

  • @TheOriginalSupreme ya i saw that 2

  • Having her dancers dress like her through out the years was #classic Jan is and aways will be the greatest female entertainer i've ever seen, and i'm 19 yrs old. How many artist can appeal to ppl half their age?? Janet is the best and she has a fan forever in me..can't wait 4 new material to drop :)

  • This I love and I love how the music cut's out and they excuse me Janet it's just cute and she is amazing. Lovin Janet And the look on Shaq's face also.

  • BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE!! I loved how the dancers had on Janet's video outfits from Alright, Whats It Gonna Be, Run Away, If, Rhythm Nation and a load of others. Janet looks amazing (as always).

  • @HotBoy147 I like how the music just cut out and the look on Shaq's face brilliant.

  • @HotBoy147 omg! i never noticed that!!

  • I love this, and she's doing it live

  • i love you janet

  • At the end it would have been cool if they could go back in time and get all the Janet's and dance

  • @hitps101 Truly

  • Love Janet can't nobody do it like her and she killed this and looked her best and that body oh! Ms. Jackson.

  • @collinsboy21 I am agreeing with you she did great that's what I like about it.

  • this was a great performance, janet sounds so similar to the recorded version ! she's just amazing, not like these singers of nowadays, who can't sing live let alone singing live WHILE dancing !

    note: starting from 5:09, there's this girl and she's really good, her moves were great;

  • janet your the best!! such a wonderful performer and a person with a big heart....love you girl!!

  • badass performance ! best one i've seen in a while :-) ...satisfied.

  • Awesome and the ending was sick.

  • @dundun920 It was koolness.

  • lmao @ 4:55

    shaq was so scared!

  • This lady invented the dance break wow that was so good makes you wiah you could dance like that without hurting yourself. Janet is in her 40s but she has never got slack or lazy when it comes to her dancing and performances. Go Janet !Go Janet ! I really hope any new album she comes out with soon is a hit.

  • The Queen,The Icon. I really hope the American public gets over that superbowl BullShlt. (Really hurt her career) I got my Number Ones Copy (2 weeks ago)and Can't wait for her to drop her next album plus I really hope she goes on tour.

    P.S "I Miss You Much" Michael ;(

  • She definitely has her plate full next year. All I can say is the Queen, Icon is going to hit them hard. Janet's Movie, New Album, and Book is coming. I can't wait.

  • Janet 2010. Thanks for the update, I didn't know she is going to release a book(definetly looking forward to that)

    I heard that she's back with JImmy Jam+ working with rodney jerkins

  • @brkertffny2006
