In pop, yes. In other "real" (for lack of a better term - not saying it's not real just that it's not taught in schools or anything as a separate genre - pop dancers generally know jazz or ballet or hip hop and get retrained) genres it's less about being flashy and more about the movement itself. Like with contemporary, you might see something that's cool but in the end you won't remember that any more than the overall emotion of the piece.
In ballet, it's so strict generally that it's hard to notice anyone with an additional flair, but those people usually get solos or lead positions anyway. Jazz is an 80s genre so you don't see it anymore. Hip hop has many of its own subgenres, most of which I'm not familiar with. Tap is all about the sound - if you do some cool flip thing, well great, but we're interested in the rhythm tapped out with your feet.
They all have their quirks, but I'd say pop artists or pop genre dancers tend to be the more "let me show you my one great move" than anyone else.
