So you know I don’t worship Janet Jackson. Okay, maybe a little.
Okay, now that THAT is out of the way. I was reading that Namie Amuro topped the random polls of “female singer with the best dancing skills“, ahead of BoA… who barely made the list. I thought to myself “Wow, she must really be something”. Because even if I don’t appreciate BoA for all her BoA-ness, I thought she totally killed it with her video of Eat You Up (even if the lyrics are pretty rubbish).
So this is my total non-biased opinion.
I YouTubed Namie Amuro, and came up with THIS performance for Girl Talk, which has over 100k views. Totally NOT impressed with the dancing. But something else called my attention.
How similar-sounding is Amuro’s 2004 Girl Talk,

to the 2000 Janet Jackson single Doesn’t Really Matter.

Coz I’m not crazy, right? They sound very similar. But since I couldn’t find any reference to Amuro and Jackson regarding Girl Talk and Doesn’t Really Matter controversies~~~
Who does it better?
And for the sake of being equals~~~ Here’s Janet’s VMA performance.
As for Amuro over BoA? Major fail. But you are welcomed to leave a comment with a rocking dancing performance to prove me wrong.
