My two favorite Roxies are Dylis Croman (my first Roxie in March 2011) and Bianca Marroquin. I've seen both of them on tour and on Broadway.
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Marroquin is the best Roxie I've seen. I also enjoyed Reinking and Paige Davis.

On this selection of clips it would have to be Sandy Duncan, followed by CHITA then Ruthie Henshall.
best Roxie I ever saw live was Josefina Gabrielle, followed again by Chita & Ruthie

Not watching the video in full, but just chiming in to say that Charlotte D'Amboise is the best Roxie I've seen, bar none. She is truly something else.
Brandy was also actually quite good.

Sandy Duncan was incredible. I remember seeing her and she was probably the one I saw who had the most joy and naive glee in the character and I think she still remains my favorite that I've seen in the revival.
Reinking also deserved an incredible amount of praise for what she did both as choreographer and the originator of the role in this revival.
As others have said, Charlotte D'Amboise is also incredible in the part and no matter how often I've seen her over the years her performance always feels fresh and new, not to mention that she is still doing the full choreography track when she's in the show without any of the modifications that are made for Roxies who are lacking in the dance department.
