Jennifer Lopez, "Love Don't Cost a Thing" - J. Lo made a postcard-pituresque moment an urban experience when she donned cornrows, a crop top and baggy jeans for a dance scene in this video. Flanked by male dancers, Lopez adds a bit of her Latin flavor to a break in the beat.(Photo: EPIC Records) 
Mya, "Case of the Ex" - This video won an American Choreography Award for Best Hip Hop Video due to Mya and her all-girl crew serving up some "whatchu gonna do" in the desert to a group of nonplussed men.(Photo: Interscope Records) 
Mindless Behavior, "Keep It on the Low" - A suited-up Mindless Behavior grooves "like the Jacksons" between security laser beams and cyberspace data streams for this lead single from their second studio album, All Around the World. Their mission: deliver a high tech performance in just five minutes.(Photo: Interscope Records)10.
