  • She is really amazing.

  • Did you notice @ 1:06 she kind looks down...she looks so much like Michael there!

    You were amazing like always Janet! <3

  • She can dance her ass off

  • Comment removed

  • ppl dont understand how its hard to dance and sing

  • Why do people get on artist sites and say neg things, if she lip syncing so what .She making the money not you,you are not up there. Try dancing and singing its very hard and doing a concert,most of you will fall out.

  • this video was the fuckin bomb!!! #werrk janet

  • u try dancing an singin at the same time, it aint easy dumbass! shes the queen of dance an performing.

  • She's amazing

  • I remember watching this on Tv way back then :)

    She was pretty good here.

  • She was such a great dancer then.

  • MINNEAPOLIS

  • janet is probably one of the best dancers in the entire world. that is not just my opinion, i think anyone who would watch this has to agree that no one can beat her. she has a real talent. huge respect for her

  • she's not lip singing im hate when people says that >=(

  • Good Job with the Synching!

  • it would almost be impossible to dance AND SING at the same time for this rigorous song...

  • Anyone else notice that the intro dance includes dance moves from some of her videos? Love Janet.

  • Janet used to wear you out with her performances back in the day. She was truly an all around entertainer. I love you Janet.

  • but I like to hear the audience reaction. 

  • Damn near perfectly in sync dancing, you only got that with a Jackson..

    I'd hate to get a kick in the face by the guy at 4:28

  • She loox so much like Katherine here, Katherine Jackson is a beautiful woman, and Joe is an asshole, that really has nothin to do with this I jus wanted to say it, coz its true

  • Mj but girl XD same steps NICE!

  • the QUEEN

  • I love this performance..I looks a little weird singing without a mic...But i wonder why Janet hasn't done any tap dancing in any of her routines..since she can tap dance..

  • paula naw naw you have that all wrong ``janet is gifted from birth```and if paula was that good she will still be in seen`````yeah yeah she got a lil help but its not from paula ``janet jackson & micheal jackson they hold there own

  • @dwaynemartinez i agree.

  • The only reason how she cna dnace is because Paula Abdul taught her everything she knows! During the silouette part I thought it was Paula! Paula performed the same night too!

  • @brittpaula11 wrong answer, try again

  • @brittpaula11 Thats the Biggest crock of shit i havent heard in awhile lol! Your probably a shitney or pilled out paula fan huh? You cant TEACH natural Rythem something the jackson family oviously have but of course you would throw in the old Paula taugh Janet how to Dance! Really? Check Janet on stage with her family back when she was a little girl.Janet always had natural Rythem! Besides she grew up wathcing her brother Mike! So thats really were she gets it from! Janet= Icon Paula= ?

  • @jacobR1377 lmao...Glad you got Britney's name correct. Go Janet!

  • On the American music awards everyone lip synched it was the thing to do on the show

  • i got goose bumps watching her.... what happened to perfomances like that? artist now a days dont do it like this.

  • DAMN.! she can dance.!

  • janet you just proved why you are the queen of pop

    thank you

  • just amazing.

  • janet is such a great performer.

  • oohhh my gosh!!!!! i remember this....i stayed up to watch the whole thing and when i saw this performance i fell even more in love with janets entertainment. i was ten and after that all i did was sing! still of my favorite performances to date.

  • i looove that little shimmy she does at the "come go with me" part its sooo cute cuz her smile is so cute and adorable

  • that intro dance was so dope! me and a friend did it in a talent show in 9th grade. lol

  • AWESOME!! amazing dancer!! Runs in that whole family! I remember this..love her xo

  • GREAT JOB Janet Jackson sure is a great dancer and singer no lie about dat,!!!

    i am so sick of people trying 2compare janet jackson and Beyonce, first of if Beyonce tried so some dope shit janet did in this amazing performance beyonce clumsy ass would fall iight i mean come on, i just makes me mad dat in todays music performances we don't GREAT ones like JANETJACKSON&MichaelJackson

  • yasss Janet!!!

  • damn! she looked so gorgeous! love love love her hair!!

  • i love her dance move as recall it was shown in tv in late 80's ,this is her very best performance ever during her rythmn nation album which she deserve to bring lots of award recieved during that day

  • this was legit showmanship. now artists like rihanna wanna wiggle their asses and sing a couple notes off-key and call it performing..AUGH

    love janet. the jacksons do it right.

  • janet & micheal is the great ``on top ``even today singers now are so lazy on stage ``lol am for real ```janet at your age `your even better ``just like your bro god bless

  • i understand when an artist like janet jackson is lipsynching. its not because they can't sing, its because they are performers and have to dance at the same time. dancing and singing at the same time is extremely hard. entertainers are human beings not superheroes!

    anyways, awesome performance by janet. greatest female dancer period.

  • norman lear put janet on good times becus he 'iked how she performed in las vegas and on the variety show her brothers had in the mid 70s janet was on that show becus of her talent not mj,s she never took the easy way out control was her album not mj,s

  • i looooooove her the beggining was SICK i love 0:14-0:19

    god if i meet her i prey i do that will be the first dance i asked her to show me ever since ive seen miss u much that glide move has always been one of my fav moves from her love u janet

  • thats why Janet Jackson is Janet Jackson on this days.... she is the impiration of many other artists

  • absolutely love the beginning!! best female dancer ever no one can touch her. love you janet

  • fuck man. the beginning was RAW!!!!! yeoo. janet and michael are the fucking best singer and dancers!

  • I love the opening :)

  • @Janetjacksongurl I love the opening too! I wish I could dance like that! :)

  • @Janetjacksongurl Me too!It has a part of the Miss you much dance in it isn't it?

  • I bet the starsnot settin around sayin oh he or she is coping me u people need 2 get a clue! 2 be a star and 4 people 2 luv u, u need 2 have voice a message and Ms. J is the best so 4get (all) the rest!

  • Anthony62609, you're obviosly not that big a fan of either Michael or Janet, otherwise you'd know that at this time, Michael didn't have straghtened hair, like hers, yet...maybe it was he who wa s trying to look like her...because she had this look first in 1989-1990. He did't have this look til early 2000's.

  • @sloera2404 so what they are siblings,they both were trying to look,sound and act like one another.Both janet and britney copied michael's dance moves and hiccuping vocal technique.

  • Minneapolis!!!!

    Love when she says that

  • this is just to great ``janet & micheal ``oh god ``they are to gifted ``lol lol sis & bro even better biger blessing

  • SHE'S THE BEST!

  • it look like she try to be like michael on here

  • she's not trying to act like michael

    Anthony62609

  • @Anthony62609 shutup man she got her own style just like her brother micheal

  • shut up u dont kno shit Anthony62609. she got famous bc of HER not michael. Know ur facts b4 u start dissin the Queen of Pop

  • This woman can move! Go on Miss Janet!

  • If an artist does it to there own song what's the big ass deal they originally recorded?

  • how the hell can she dance like that

  • Its In Her

  • @FfUuCcUu lipsynching

  • @FfUuCcUu practice plus a little rhythm

  • @FfUuCcUu cause she killin this

  • @FfUuCcUu its cause she is the queen.. i sing and dance live for people.janet really helps me learn that stuff.

  • @jjackson4ever

    Not the Queen!!!!!

  • @FfUuCcUu == Janet Jackson revolutionized Dancing in her Era... she is amongst the few performers that most choreographers now look up to as their inspiration. Janet Jackson is an expert in her craft. She may not have the voice of Mariah but she definitely have the moves that makes her the Queen of Pop RnB. Most people will agree with me saying that Janet is a Living Legend herself. Making her way out of her brother's (Michael Jackson) Popularity and made herself an Icon is such a FEAT!

  • @iamsugarfairy  i agree with you 100%

  • @FfUuCcUu bcuz she is the queen of pop rnb . thats how.

  • @FfUuCcUu I have no idea but it is so damn good it beats logic. So a toast to her. Cheers.

  • she's so cute, gotta love janet

  • Janet still got it..sooo Pretty

  • I LUV THIS SHE'S SO PRETTY!

  • She is wonderful

  • She's soooooooooo amazing!

    i love it ♥

  • It Doesnt Matter If She Is Or ISN'T LIP-SYNCING Shes Great No Matter What Shes The Same Janet The GREAT AWESOME FABULOUS GORGEOUS BEAUTIFUL Dancer/singer/actress We ALL LOVE

  • wicked performance by any standard

  • all these comments are soooo boring, if you don't like to see her lypsinging why the hell are you watching her videos? she's a great singer, dancer, songwriter, and when she sang her song "again" in the academy awards '94 she was singing live and it was a great performance

  • Hell why does it matter. She's lip singing to her own music...it's not like she's doing the Mili Vanili thing....you try singing and dancing at the same time and see how it sounds :)

    ♥ YOU JANET

  • yeah artist do it all the time but janet doest lip sync all the time she doesnt in her concerts sometimes at an award show but artist are under a lot of pressure at award shows to be perfect so i can understand that it doesnt make her any less talented to lip sync a few times she still had to record it you know

  • This is an absolutely kick ass performance. And what are you trying to say about her lip synching? Every performer has done it, I don't care who you are. It's different when she's actually immersed in an intense dance routine and choreography, rather than half these talentless hacks these days who just walk around not performing at all. They're just naked and being slutty. Madonna has lip synched, Brit brit ONLY lip synchs, hell, even Michael Jackson has done it. WHO CARES when you perform well

  • all time favorite JJ video is Pleasure Principles....when she straightened her hair and did the solo dance!! brilliant

  • she's so amazing the dancing was clean to a T!

    go on mis janet!

  • I was just going thru all janets shit for the past 2 days falling deeper and deeper back into my Janet Trance

  • JANET IS A KICK ASS PERFORMER!!!! She works VERY hard to be the best she can be & that is all anyone can ask of a performer!!! SHE ROCKS THE HOUSE!!! There are some people (myself NOT INCLUDED) who think that Janet has ridden Michael's coat-tails.... NOT TRUE.. if she could'nt hold her own... she'd be long gone by now... I've ALWAYS appreciated JANET & MICHAEL'S extreme hard work to be innovators & TRULY AMAZING performers!! Michael was right "to go far you have to be unique"!!! Damn straight!

  • wow. this is back in the day where they weren't even trying to pretend like they were singing by having a mic. awesome performance, tho.

  • oh, and one more thing - Janet's covered up to her neck and still manages to look sexy. It's not about the amount of flesh, it's the attitude and personality (hear that Beyonce?)

  • Man this choreo is THE SHIT!!! I hate to say, but I don't see as inspired and cool choreography in today's artists performances. It's all the same recycled shit we've seen millions of times before. Where are the good choreographers???

  • YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE FOR HOURS AND WEEKS AND MONTHS TO HAVE GOOD CHOREOGRAPHY....these artists aren't going to do that..they to busy being Divas and feeling themselves way to much...they weren't Raised by Joe Jackson.....

  • Not only were they not raised by whats-his-name, but the audience ACCEPTS thes talentless divas act like that (Rhianna anyone??). Obviously parading in barely there outfit is totally enough these days. Which means that we have very low standards.

  • Yeah you right about the audience....that is these kids parents fault....you have to teach your children what good music and a good performance is.....folks these days are just worried about Getting Money....no matter how they get it or what they sacrifice for it....Money is the Root of all Evil....You Can Not Make it your master....Cause whenever somebody sucks...someone will say...Well at least they making some money for it....hell prostitutes make money; doesn't mean I want to be one.

  • who cares if she's lipsyching!! It's an energetic performance. Singers these days lipsyching when they're just walking around the stage and not moving much (yes, you Britney!). She has a reason to lipsynch because she's dancing with so much energy!

  • Well said!

  • Cant wait to see janet opening this year AMAs!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • OMGGG, I cant wait for AMAs !!!

    ND this performance is craazyyy .

    JANET/MICHAELLL ♥

  • JANET OPENING THE 2009 AMAS

  • OMG This was my jam back in the day. I so fell in love with this song back then, and still in love with it. I think I might rock this in the car today!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the performance and song that made me sit up and took noticed in 1990! ")

  • Janets Always Got So Much Energy In Her When She Performs ILOVEHER

  • Janet looks AWESOME in this video!! love the energy, everything is just simply amazing!!

  • She is truly the jewel in the family!

  • Janet is So BAD!!! She is so beautiful!!! My mom has this recorded on a tape along with MC Hammer performance on Arsenio Hall and sum other videos like "Around the Way Girl" by LL COOL J. I feel like crying dude...the 90's are gone!!! Even tho I was a baby....doesnt matter becuz im still in the 90's....music is so dif. I was thought of when this came out tho. I was born Nov. 1991. I LOVE JANET.

    And who cares if she lip sang or not. SHE GOT VOCALS!!! we all kno that!

  • the dancing in this was amazing and on time. she looks beautiful =]

  • and even if she was lipsyncing why would you put her out there like there

  • This is the AMA Awards 1990. it is not live, but the thing is janet doesn't have to sing live. She is an ICON.

  • she is using a track. It's pretty much the same voice on the recording!

  • Lovely performance--love my Jan!

  • why would you edit the audience, this was at an award show.

  • her dancing was on point!

    i always thought janet looked alot like michael in her escapade video

  • Janet is always fierce, beautiful, and stunning.

  • never will my janet lip sync my mother nows janet very personly an janet has only lip synced twice when she did whoops now in london and all for you at her all four you tour in los angeles

  • not true!!

  • um true she told my mom herself an i was in the room

  • she is lipsyncing right here. she has no mic. and also she lipsynced doesnt really matter in one of her performances on tv.

  • its attached to her jacket

  • no its not. realize all of the movement she is doing, you would have heard air and maybe some scuffles.

  • she didnt lipsynce to doesnt really matter or to this one i could see if janet performed this song after 50 years and lipsynced but that song came out not 3 4 or 5 years after it was made so she has no reason to lipsynce and plus the mic is inside her jacket on the right flap

  • she should wear her hair like that again. i don't care if it's not in style anymore, it's beautiful

  • hey do you have the escapade j.j rockamerica remix??

  • wow look at her babyface its so cute, and her hair is rockin that girl be looking good

  • LOOK AT HER HAIRRRRRRRR

  • i forgot janet use to be cover up fom neck down and was still beautiful. i love her hair.

    the AMA 's use to be the show back in the day.what happend

  • Comment removed

  • I love my Janet! I remember how excited I was to see this performance. Wonderful. Please just concentrate on the positive (Positivity).

  • Lol what does Janet and her performance have to do with Michael? Im gonna defend Janet regardless cause, she's awesome. Plain and simple.

  • She was also young when RN came about. Janet is classy compared to alot of other artist. Janet can make great dance tracks as well as a personal mood setters. With time come change and she grew up...get over it.

  • I have a right to my opinion just as u do. Pretty bad timing for u to start something up right now with all that is going on with the Jacksons! YOU get over it & try & wait til this all blows over before picking an argument now. NICE! REAL NICE!!

  • ur supposed to be able to here the audience cheering

  • i would so tap that

  • ....great track...........STILL !!!!

    SpecialGreetz2 Danijela M.

    MCI

  • is janet

    michale sister??

  • yes she is

  • wow in what world do you live in??? off course, she's his younger sister

  • she looks like michael when she dances

  • Theres always one who takes a light hearted gesture into a something more. Pity really!

    i WOULD ARGUE WITH YOU BUT i'M A LOVER NOT A FIGHTER...NUFF SAID!

  • milli vanilli eat your heart out!

    Still Great though!

  • I love this song . Brilliant words....:)

  • I was in my late teens when this song came out. I was lucky to have great songs like this out back then.

    Janet was always my favourite Jackson!

    Even when she did Fame TV show she was a natural

  • Milli Vanilli never actually sang their songs - she is greatness, who happened to lip sync at this event. nuff said...

  • janet is really a good singer and dancer,,superb...

  • I Wonder When Paula And Janet Both won awards at this AMA If they Congratulated One Another It dosent seem like they have any Feuds between Each other I hope they Do a Tribute to one another

  • nice edit, thanks for posting!

  • Jan is a performer; whether she is singing, dancing or acting she is doing the best. Almost all of the recording artists today are still trying to be Janet. Good luck, Hon.

  • I Love Janet :)

  • The Jackson Brothers ruled the 70's. Sibling Michael, Janet, & Jermaine ruled the 80's and 90's.

  • I don't know if it is chemical peels, dermabrasion or just the makeup...but I have the 12" of Escapade and Janet's skin has never looked as flawless as it did here and during this era take a look at the "Alright' promo pics as well she has almost a spanish/puerto rican thing going on...not to say her skin is not beautiful now it was just something back then I have been trying to pinpoint for my own skin if anyone knows please let me know before I go back on tour fall 2009.

  • Nice video edit! I cannot catch the edit points anywhere!!!

    Good and seamless.

    Mezza

  • In 1990, my family and I got together to see the American Music Awards. I recorded it because my family would change the channel if nothing exciting was going on. I didn't want to miss a beat. Well, my family soon got tired of that VHS and particularly of Ms. Abdul and Ms. Jackson. All I did was play, forward, and rewind between the two performances. These performances were my first look into dance & choreography. I am now a pro dancer, choreographer, & teacher. Thank you so very much!

  • that's tight...i like that story.

  • i hear you!!! im a teen and HATE today's music so i listen to Janet, Paula and Michael.... my mom cant bare to listen to them anymore!!!

  • at 2:21 u can tell that shes getting tired...I would be too but still having fun

  • wut r u talkin about no u cant!

  • good editing! :D you matched it up very well.

  • queen of music!

  • i would've rather it had not been edited but w/e.

  • janet is da best female dancer in da world???

    and da vocals are incredible....

    then...why da bitch of maddonna is the queen of pop!!!

    not for me....

  • Hey thanks for replying! I would "Love" to see that interview with the girl that caught the earring. Do U think U will ever upload it for people to see?I've always been a big fan and wished I could've seen her in concert!When Control came out that's when I was hooked,and when Rhythm Nation came out after I was like Whoa!! She was fierce and still is in my opinion. Hope she keeps going, but we can just hope and see what happens. If not,she and Michael have given us some great moments and music!

  • I liked the key ear ring she used to wear, it was cool! She should wear it again.

  • She can't, in the Rhythm Nation tour, the throw out in the crowd. She got rid of anything Jackson related for her next album.

  • Really!?! She threw the key earring into the crowd? So she did that to separate herself from the "Jackson" name and be her ownself and not just a name? Is that what the reason was?

  • Yeah, after that tour she was done with it. I have the interview on tape with the girl that caught the earring. She changed her name to "Janet" which is scary.

  • I miss this Janet so much, the one we see now is too sexual, I liked her so much more when it was just natural. I miss this Janet dearly.

  • Is this the rehearsal to the performance because i hear no audience? In the other clip of this same performance the audience is going crazy!! By the way it is an awesome performance. I hope wish we could see performances like this now days!!
