Fierce-Off: Vol. 1 | Who's Better? Beyoncé vs. J-Lo: First Single | "You Can't Base It On the Booty"

Pop has given us a bumper crop of divas.  From Ella and Aretha to the present day, we've heard voices wail and seen bodies groove like no tomorrow.  But if you ask me, only a few of these ladies really shine.  Two that do are Beyoncé and J-Lo (that's Jennifer Lopez).

In this 3-part series, we'll take a look at these two divas' first singles, live performances, and most recent releases.  Check out these videos and decide:

Who's the fiercest of them all?  

Keep in mind that a lot changed between 1999, when J-Lo released "If You Had My Love," and 2003, when Beyoncé released "Crazy In Love."  But check out the performances, the dance, the vocals, whatever you like - and tell the world what makes your pick the best - the fiercest of them all.

One thing's for sure, though.  When it comes to these two, you can't base it on the booty.

Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" (2003)

Jennifer Lopez's "If You Had My Love" (1999)

Although as a pubescent teenage boy, I was (like her...uh...voyeur) obsessed with J-Lo's style and moves - especially in the dance break - I think Beyoncé's combination of vocals, style, dance, and runway strut win her the day.
