Britney deserves more than an HM. She opened that set in a cage with a live tiger, and while it may not have been her best/heaviest choreographed performance, the moves were fitting with the animalistic nature of the song, she looked smokin hot in that outfit, and that snake was not only alive (we all know that) but he's a literal beast! Weighed atleast 25lbs, and moved. I'd say the only downsides to that performance were that we lost a lot of Britney Time when she was going to get the snake, and the tan and bedazzled boots/leg warmers that she wore were oddly distracting.

Too many from MTV and music awards. I'd have put no 5 as no 1 and nph did several numbers at Oscars and Tony's that were also good. In the 80s Jason Alexander also did a good routine during Oscars singing songs like Maude and cheers in a medley and there was a routine with the children of Oscar winners singing about there ambitions that was good too.

Britney SHOULD be at least Top 5, not honorable mention. Where's Like a Virgin / Hollywood? It drove everybody INSANE! I love Janet is on the list, but there are plenty of better performances from her than the one listed (VMA 93 f. e. And the range should be wider, Europe & Asia have their own award shows with some killer performances.

Gagas Paparazzi performance was not only iconic because of the message, the drama, the shock. All of that was amazing. But she also sang the harmony on her own song, instead of the melody. And I love that about her. I think most singers prefer singing harmony, its more fun. But its a BOLD choice for a live solo performance.

The pop music performances and the Broadway performances are such different animals. If you haven't done so already, I'd suggest pulling Jennifer Holiday and Neil Patrick Harris (a revelation in his performance of Bigger at the 2013 Tony Awards) out of this ranking and doing one for just the Tony Awards.

I think it was on the 2017' American Music Awards were P! nk performed Beautiful Trauma on the wall of a building. That performance was amazong. And her grammy performance with Glitter In The Air. And any of her performances. She's, in my opinion, the best performer and entertainer of this century

P! nk is the best live performer hands down. Doing things no artist would even dare to attempt. Never Lip syncing, putting 150% into everything she does, always taking it up a level everytime. Always unique and exciting. She is the peak of a performer, a real artist. Legendary.

You seem to have missed the mark on this one. Ricky Martin's iconic La Copa de la Vida Grammy performance in 1999 FAR outshines Beyonce's performance - and you didn't even give him an honorable mention. Bey's performance is in the HM category, imo.

Trash list! The disrespect to put Britney on honorable mentions but have the guts to put her in the thumbnail so you can have views.
Slave performance at the VMAs was HARDER than many that made the list. Top 3 easily.

Delighted you included P! nk, but the wrong song! Singing Beautiful Trauma while doing balletic work DOWN THE SIDE OF A BUILDING at the 2017 AMA's with a partner and six backup dancers is surely worth a mention!

I like this list, but you should add the qualifier that it's for US awards show. MMA and MAMA shows consistently go hard, much harder than western shows. The possible exception is Beyonce. :)

Pink and Missy Elliot will always live rent free in my brain. But Jennifer Holiday, Madonna, NPH and Queen B own the brain. MJ owns everything else. I'll never forget those performances.

Madonna didn't even have a mic on her, Janet was lip synching, Prince's guitar was not plugged, MJ I think almost never really sings in his performances, he only signs when he grabs the mic.

Really youre going to put Britney as an honorable mention? That performance is regarded as the best love stage performance of all time and you guys dont even put her in the Top 10?

Janets Thats The Way Love Goes/If medley at the VMAs in the mid 90s went harder than the performance you featured, in my opinion. But I still appreciate it. Thanks

I feel Michael Jacksons moonwalk 1983 During Billie Jean is the most iconic live performance of all time. Just 3 seconds of moonwalk made it revolutionary
