Rolling Stone‘s readers picked their “10 Favorite Dancing Musicians,” placing Britney at number two just behind Michael Jackson!

Britney Spears took a whopping percentage of the votes in this poll, clearly establishing the pop starlet as your favorite female dancer. The music video for the 2001 hit “I’m A Slave 4 U” is prime Britney, with the singer deliberately subverting her still-girlish appearance with overt, unapologetic sexuality.

Full list is:
10. Thom Yorke
9. Nicole Scherzinger
8. Janet Jackson
7. Madonna
6. Prince
5. Lady Gaga
4. Mick Jagger
3. James Brown
2. Britney Speras
1. Michael Jackson

Congats to Britney! What do YOU think of the results?

I'm sorry I love Gaga but in no way is she better than Madonna.

EDIT: *waits for this to become Gaga bashing thread number 2355758645234653783557484537347654*

It's almost inevitable, isn't it?

But didn't you hear that Gaga chose the title of 5th best dancer herself?

It's a readers' poll, but even then, Madonna should be higher. She's a better dancer at 50 than all the others that are alive...

It's all so boringly predictable. MJ may have briefly been a good dancer but he didn't progress an iota for the last decade or two of his life, which hardly makes him great.

Surprised Shakira and Beyoncé never made the top 10! Both are incredible dancers.

His dancing is iconic!

Who else in that top ten could dance like that?

This! And I know he's not Mr Popular (on here anyway),but I'm surprised Chris Brown didn't get a look in either.

Those in the 9 positions above him I'd imagine...

If that's who he is then yes...

The list is silly. Gaga and Madonna move about the stage but they don't belong on a list with artists like MJ, Janet and even Britney.

I won't even talk about GaGa.Not even!

I'm a Brit fan and I think she was a great dancer, but come on now!Her routines were never intricate, she just executed them flawlessly.As I said in a blog yesterday, if any other blonde thin girl did the same moves, she would be labelled as a mediocre dancer.Brit has stage presence and attitude and that's what made her a great PERFORMER but solely a dancer?No.A spot in the Top 10 would be good and well deserved, but No.2 is too much IMO.
