Lived in era and worshiped her as the pop queen and still do. I love her as a woman whom respects herself as a performer versus today, that looks like porn performance now. No one wears clothing any more. That is the way they dress, they are better off dancing naked. No talent just trash.
@@rachelkemp4510 black pride doesn't equal trying to kill everything that looks different(unlike other forms of so called pride.). It just means being happy to see a successful black woman. We are not out to destroy any and everything that looks different. People forget that the civil rights movement just ended in the late 60s. So to see a black woman get media respect in the mid 80s was a great deal. Not racist at all. Other races didn't have to fight for their place. They just got it.
Janet's is the Jackson is the first person to do the XYZ is what I named it I think a good dancer knows exactly the moves I'm talking about she started it in control but she perfected the XYZ dance move and if in this video should definitely be proof of that she's extraordinary
This is why I can’t stand today how people compare these artist to our legends.You can’t because our legends performed at a level that these artist don’t come close to.
@Jarrel Ely It's deeper than that. Its that inner innocent, pure old fashion soul! You can feel it when our Artists , Entertainers performed. A joyful feeling I can't explain. I'm soooo glad I came up in the last of the real soul and funk era.
I’ve always loved Britney Spears and lately I’ve seen a lot of Janet’s videos and I can see where Britney got a lot of the moves she used to do. She truly is an inspiration for Britney. I’m so in love with both of them 😍😍 Queen Janet and Princess Britney Spears.
she was named as the highest paid entertainer at this time when all entertainers are famous including celine dion, mariah carey and even madonna. their albums hit the market but janet hit it in her tours because i believe aint nobody does it better than janet jackson especially when she performs. she rules! she's the queen of all queens!
Ivan Augusto Again you should watch these shows. playback? lol Madonna sang 85-2006 her shows 90 or 100% LIVE. you can dislike her but shes one of the greatest performer ever, who dances great, her energies are incredible she can put a good show with creative different characters and sings live. educate urself first. People whose are degreed it also know it. I dont like Beyonce, to me shes boring and unoriginal but I can accept that shes a great performer.
Gabby Villarreal na, my english is not perfect but is that bad? read pls again where I wrote anything close to this? Im a fan of both, theyre not the best singers, and none of them is vocalist, theyre performers, but I love their voice, but Madonna sang much much more live at her concerts. its not the question how fan am I its a fact.
David Muller - Madonna's shows during the 1980's were 90 - 100 live vocally. But starting in 1990 - her shows became pre-recorded tracks mixed with live vocals. Same with Janet and Michael.
some people might think she has a small vocal instead of powerful loud singing. Am I the only one think that is a very unique style of performance and it is just comfy sexy and so attractive on stage. not every performance needs to be so loud innit
Jazzy Jazz Daughtry well let's face it, she has a weak voice. No problem with that but please don't act like she's a good live singer, maybe when she's not dancing.
Janet intricate choreography has never been matched.She does no TWERKING OR SHAKING her ass.She doesnt need to do it her intricate moves speaks for itself.Janet body flows with the music while other female performer's moves are forced thats the difference.
It's crazy to me cuz other performers of her era can't still perform this well and yet Janet can match the energy the dance, preciseness and showmanship on stage like she did in the 80s 90s and 00s!
Lived in era and worshiped her as the pop queen and still do. I love her as a woman whom respects herself as a performer versus today, that looks like porn performance now. No one wears clothing any more. That is the way they dress, they are better off dancing naked. No talent just trash.
People can talk tours, sales, biggest deals but the fact of the matter is NONE of your faves can touch Janet on stage. Simply put her on stage next to Mariah Whitney Madonna Paula Beyonce Lady Gaga Rihanna you name it and we'll see whats what. You look at any award show with Janet and others and you best believe your girl stands out.End of Story.
The beginning is so beautiful I could cry. I mean it's just pure perfection before Janet comes out on stage. Perfection from opening all the way through but I expect nothing but perfection from her. 🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️🎶🎙️🎧🎤🎛️☑️💯💯💯
Britney is her clone. They modelled Britney (style, dancing, ad libing on records) completely after her. She was supposed to be the pop white Janet in the 21st century.
x-thasis They're totally different, Madonna relies on theatrics, creates huge shows that overwhelm the senses whereas Janet can have all that but can also strip it back to bare bones, despite her not even having a great singing voice. There's something innate about Janet's showmanship and musicality that sets her apart from the likes of Madonna, who doesn't have the same innate quality. Janet obviously inherited that same DNA that made The Jacksons special but she also created her own style, especially by this time (2002). No one can say anyone else is 'the best' because that's subjective, but I don't think too many people can argue against the fact that Janet was/is something truly special and magnetic on the stage.
Voice and everything about her always remind me of Michael.A beautiful Female version of MJ and always has been! Love them. Continue Riparadise Beloved Michael.
Well folks my wife about to be inducted into tha rock and roll Hall of Fame it's been long ova due don't matter she's in control bcuz her mother molded her to be humble damn baby🌟🦋✌️
I love that the Jacksons always sing live because they all can actually sing and dance because they all actually have talent unlike most of the kids these days that is raw Untapable Talent right there.
side2 Side In all fairness though, she was never known for being a great singer. And yes, Beyoncé could probably do all this too and actually have a voice to back it up. But Janet is still iconic. If it wasn’t for Janet, there’d be no Beyoncé!
I had this dvd 📀. Loved it . danced to it daily . In the 90s , middle school 🏫, high school 🏫, college. I would dance to Janet choreography to tone up and lose weight
Back when people used to actually dance. I can’t comprehend how people get so captivated by theses new artists that literally be standing in one spot for an hour. Wish the 2000’s could comeback (the last decade of “performers”).
JANET is the only one who can hang with michael... younger people wise in performances its chris brown and ciara... janet hands down is that deal always has been
Right! Even Ciara said when doing the B E T dance tribute to Janet. How it was a certain dance move that Janet did, that was very hard for her to do. And Ciara said ," And I'm a professional dancer and couldn't do that move like Janet"..
Often imitated, can never be duplicated
Watching it daily!
Yes... Right... NO ONE..
It WAS a powerful performance
Never ever!!😊
The fact that pop stars don't sweat on stage anymore is a big problem!
Right...that part
yea i have the same feeling for that...that is totally strange
Especially with all the lights, makeup and dancing they must have a secret and never
EXACTLY! 😂😂😂😂😂
I dont know how it is possible.
No one can touch this woman. Can not even come close!
Lived in era and worshiped her as the pop queen and still do. I love her as a woman whom respects herself as a performer versus today, that looks like porn performance now. No one wears clothing any more. That is the way they dress, they are better off dancing naked. No talent just trash.
Facts she mothered these other girls #music royalty
Ever!!!
@Jarrel Ely 😂😂😂😂😂
Jarrel Ely absolutely not
She made little black girls of the 80s and 90s feel proud to be black😥😥
I miss that 😔
Racist much

One of the best performers to have ever lived.
An Original! Just like her brother MJ, everyone else is emulating her the same way! Legend!
C est dans leurs ADN. MICHAEL JACKSON REPOSE EN PAIX🤲.
JANET ❤️

Ivan Augusto you should watch Blond Ambition tour, Girlie show and Confessions tour by Madonna, shes as good as they

christina jacobe I love janet!
One of the best live performances of "If" ever!! The costumes, the stage, the execution of that dance break by Janet and her dancers etc. FANTASTIC!!
some people might think she has a small vocal instead of powerful loud singing. Am I the only one think that is a very unique style of performance and it is just comfy sexy and so attractive on stage. not every performance needs to be so loud innit
段江南 but you can barely hear her.... what's so unique about it?
it's called having a soft voice and she can belt it out as well like on rythm nation or black cat...she's a good singer...
JC DUAN exactlyyyyy buy the way a very beatifaullll voice
Lina Smith its unique .. No one sounds like her
Jazzy Jazz Daughtry well let's face it, she has a weak voice. No problem with that but please don't act like she's a good live singer, maybe when she's not dancing.
Really i'm obsessed with Janet.
Adan Anguiano i feel you dude!!! since the age of 11 i been in love with janet jackson
Eboni Hanson i see you have good taste😏😏😏😏
Ron Jones Well yep I thank my dad for introducing me her music lol 😁😍 not to mention she's soo beautiful
Eboni Hanson i dont really remember how i was introduced to her music i just know the age and you're beautiful yourself
Ron Jones thank you
QUEEN OF POP!!!!
Always and her brother was the King and still is.

@@DivineePrince no disrespect but i was a teenager in the 80s ( I'm her age) and I grew up with her as a COMPLETE DIVA!!# nobody can compare!!!
I love that you love her
I had this on dvd when I was 11 or 12 years old. We played it on repeat every day. Miss Jackson is a legend.
The one and only Queen of Pop

Janet is the blueprint
My favourite Janet Jackson song!

Ms.Janet!! Been performing since 5 n she's still keepin it moving.
Exactly. These artists ain't got shit on her. Not even close
Cant touch ......this
JANET still can't be faded!!
Lived in era and worshiped her as the pop queen and still do. I love her as a woman whom respects herself as a performer versus today, that looks like porn performance now. No one wears clothing any more. That is the way they dress, they are better off dancing naked. No talent just trash.
Janet Jackson still got it! You go girl!

Janet Is the best an always will be!! Beyonce, Madonna, gaga an those fools can never be as great is this Legend!!!
Britney is her clone. They modelled Britney (style, dancing, ad libing on records) completely after her. She was supposed to be the pop white Janet in the 21st century.
LMFAO!!!
Prince Denzil Madonna is a pioneer. A legend. A trend-setter. You gotta give her some credit. But Janet is indeed the best!!!

Prince Denzil hi in 2018! Beyonce says hi
She's so effortless 👑
This stage production in person was just beautiful
My real Queen of pop!
Besides janet I love the guitar riff n this song. One of my favorite JJ songs.
That strings intro was beautiful!
One word : Queen
My god she is amazing!!!!
Voice and everything about her always remind me of Michael.A beautiful Female version of MJ and always has been! Love them. Continue Riparadise Beloved Michael.
She's terrific! And she's singing live!
Well folks my wife about to be inducted into tha rock and roll Hall of Fame it's been long ova due don't matter she's in control bcuz her mother molded her to be humble damn baby🌟🦋✌️
Greatest of all time👑
JANET QUEEN OF Queens.
I love that the Jacksons always sing live because they all can actually sing and dance because they all actually have talent unlike most of the kids these days that is raw Untapable Talent right there.
But I'm NOT
So I CAN'T
Then I WON'T
But, IF I was your girl
That's how I feel when I see shirtless pics of Shawn Mendes and Shemar Moore😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😛😛😛😛😛😛😛😛😛😛😛😛
Filipe Ferreira you SHOULD be an actual girl first...
@@SumthingFrench LOL
GET IT PENNY!! GET IT!!!!
See, this is what we are talking about when we talk about a SUPER STAR! Janet girl, you are an Amazing Performer. Thank you for the Great music.

JANET LOOKS DAMN GOOD FOR 51😍😍😍
Janet was in her 30s during this tour but yeah she still looks damn good !!!
I know this entire routine from watching the music video and seeing it live!
Love Janet❤️
Best abs in pop
No one can beat Janet with dance and jumping songs.... but..... her voice !!!!!!!!
side2 Side In all fairness though, she was never known for being a great singer. And yes, Beyoncé could probably do all this too and actually have a voice to back it up. But Janet is still iconic. If it wasn’t for Janet, there’d be no Beyoncé!
captainbryce1 No Janet's songs sound perfect with her voice.. soft and mellow.. Beyoncé cannot dance like Janet. She dances like she's in Zumba class.
This is way I love Janet. And she is still this great after all these years. Go and see her at the Park Resort Hotel In Las Vegas. OMG!!!!!
her abs have abs, dam
The Velvet Rope tour version is still the best
Tinker B you think so?
The Janet version with the extended dance breakdown at the end is the best
Janet version...Velvet Rope...Rockwitchu...than this version.
janet. Tour was the best. Cause she promoting this then new song. However I loved the way she reinvented this
The velvet rope version seems faster to me
I love her songs especially this one. It just brings me back to em days :) good ole days (tips cowboy hat)
My favorite performance of this song from my favorite tour.
I had this dvd 📀. Loved it . danced to it daily . In the 90s , middle school 🏫, high school 🏫, college. I would dance to Janet choreography to tone up and lose weight
That Guitar on the dance move ( medley) is Out of Site U go Janet ..... there will never be another 😘😘🤗
Never gets old and only gets bette with time. This is really a well choreographed dance without being
Always liked the music at the beginning.
I just cried watching this...
I love Janet her voice is so so so pretty I cnt stop listen to her
SHE HAS ON SHORTS..........very rare 😂
This song always make me feel some type of way
My brother and I saw her in Birmingham, Alabama in 1994. That was her tour with Tony, Toni, Tone and she sang this song.
That damn electric guitar in the break down is just🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥
Janet - The One and Only!
Perfection!
Não tenho nem oque falar dessa mulher!!!!!!
Essa coreografia de "If" é perfeita demais!!!!!!!
Maravilhosa!
Janet is the best performer in the world Michael used to be number one he's gone now Janet took it over
Princess Snowden Janet is the greatest female entertainer and MJ is the greatest male entertainer.
@@Dinaki1998 it does not make any difference because MJ is the greatest of all tym.
He still number one
Ritzy Marik Hes not alive, which he meant it as to where Janet is now the greatest living performer.
Nah he still has that spot
Legendary
Back when people used to actually dance. I can’t comprehend how people get so captivated by theses new artists that literally be standing in one spot for an hour. Wish the 2000’s could comeback (the last decade of “performers”).
JJ kiiiiiiilllled this song. My fav all day. That dance break is fire. Forever a fan of JJ. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
There is something about this level of production of that time that is very nostalgic now in my 30s
JANET is the only one who can hang with michael... younger people wise in performances its chris brown and ciara... janet hands down is that deal always has been
Nyssa James yup. Janet is the only one who can compete with Michael. No one else comes close.
I was gonna like until I saw Chris and Ciara....
Nyssa James ciara and chris brown??? WTFLOOOL
Right! Even Ciara said when doing the B E T dance tribute to Janet. How it was a certain dance move that Janet did, that was very hard for her to do. And Ciara said ," And I'm a professional dancer and couldn't do that move like Janet"..
Love her outfit
4:18 - That iconic Dance break never gets old!!!
2 concerts wasn't enough for me. Amazing shows all around. 💯💯💯💯💯
One of the best of Janet !!! The Jacksons. Universal !!!!!
One of the best performances of If.
This woman stepped out of the shadow of the phenomenon that was Michael Jackson and introduced us to the phenomenon that is Janet Jackson!
