OVERDONE as ALWAYS! The style of clothes is not classy but trashy. The video shows nothing but half naked dressed dancers wit bra-like tops & garter belts, gyrating & grinding all over the place, Beyonce with her tired leotards, the same ol, same ol, ISH! I PRAY that this will NOT set a trend? The video made no damn sense with Bey on a horse, change of clothing through out the video, and a weak azz ending? The choreography was a hot mess. Bey looked tired and couldn't keep up with the male dancers in the video or the female dancers. It looked SILLY a grown azz woman doing all that. A lot of people are tired of this crap. Girl power my AZZ, we run this world mess!
It doesn't look good with her touching the male characters in the video being that she is married? What happened to RESPECT, DRESSING CLASSY, INTELLIGENCE, and WOMAN POWER(not girl power we run the world bull ISH?) Bey thinks that SEX is the only way to go and this is sending a WRONG MESSAGE! This video is offensive and gives a wrong message of the way the woman are dressed & carried on in the video. The video is not positive, not inspirational, and disrespectful. The jewelry and make-up is TOO MUCH. Who would be sportin this style out in public? Please tell me? Nothing but a HOT AZZ MESS! What message is it sending to the youth, and you know the youth looks up to Beyonce?
The irritating noises in the song made me CRINGE! Bey is definitely OVERRATED TO THE MAXILLA! That is my opinion. I wish that Bey would RUN OUT OF TOWN. You know she isn't singing this tune at home? Jay probably RUNS THAT. That's the reality in her world.
I haven't yet seen the video, but I read a book called 'Women Run the World with Silent Sexy Power' about a year ago and it was awesome! It wasn't your typical male-bashing book. It was actually written by a man- Elgin Andrews, and it talked about the unseen influence that many women possess throughout the world, both positive and negative. There was also a chapter dedicated to how women can dress with class and still be powerful. If anyone is interested, the website for the book is www.womenruntheworld.org.
I was waiting for you to drop a DIME! hahahahaha Yes all my college educated sistas needed Ms. B to help their self esteem with fake hair and leotards! hahahaha Did Mrs. Obama tell her to give US a shout out? haha Let the black media hype this chick up. My daughters don't follow her. They love Kelly Rowland. I'm from The Lou so I'm a Nelly fan as well.
Jay Z please get this chick pregnant so she can get a purpose in life. I see a lot of the other R&B sisters have become mothers and don't need to be shoved down our throats every 5 mins. I know I know I'm a hater because I like how Maxwell (MY BABY) gave us a d@ 8 yr break!!!!
LMBO @ Deb and Dimepiece. I did not even watch the video; don't need to because I am sure it is a recurring theme, but I agree with the both of you. She is sooo tired and overrated.
@Deb & fashionedbygod33, Bey looked like she was having convulsions or something in her video? That's how bad the choreography was, real talk.
@Deb I think you better take a look at Kelly Rowland these days and reconsider? Girlfriend is copying Beyonce and doing it in a NASTY and DISRESPECTFUL WAY in her latest video girl. Girl, it is worse than Beyonce's video "Run This World"? Kelly has like soft porn in her video with the touching and grabbing these large group of men and women bonding interactions. Girls are touching her in the video. Gyrating & Grinding to the max. This video should be BANNED! What happened to this girl? As far as I am concerned, I lost all my respect for her. Kelly is just like the rest.
About Jigga Man prengating Bey, I don't think it would change this woman and help her mature? Bey would still be putting her self #1, then her baby, and last Jay. You know, Bey doesn't like when she doesn't get all the attention? That is nice that Usher came to your daughter's college! Enjoy your Graduation of your daughter and "Congratulations" to her and "Best Wishes"! I know you are a PROUD PARENT! :-) Have a good weekend. :-) PEACE!
@ fashionedbygod33 Girl, you are doing a good thing by not watching this crap. I thought, whenever she got rid of her Dad as a Manager, girlfriend would change? Wrong, it she just got WORSE! Have a good weekend :-) PEACE!
Look yall, you will see more comments on this article because you know what, Beyonce's Fan Base is on their way. You know they are always in DENIAL & can't tell them ISH? :-)
@Dime-You right. My daughters said Kelly went down the drain and I saw the tacky video and heard the trashy song. Well I guess my girl Kelly said if you can't beat them (HER) join them!!! So many of my girls used to like Kelly.
No one I talked to watched pointless Billboards. We watched Oprah's Behind the Scenes, 60Ms or Heat vs Bulls. I forgive the First Lady for her Beyonce fixation since she honored my "intelligent" ladies at Spellman!!!!
Oh I want to shout out all those parents who are getting ready to attend college graduations like myself. I heard Usher's OMG Tour rocked my baby's campus!!! Thanks Usher for bringing the "Confessions (luv this CD)" tour through my for my daughters when I wrote your mom. I think you know who this is. HOLLA!
I liked the choregraphy..and the outfits....but the song isn't too hot!! I mean...I can appreciate the girl power theme...there were some pretty good and true lyrics in the song but the song was drowned out by all the noise. I had trouble making out what she was saying. Look, black people stop hating on Bey...you don't have to like her but don't talk down about her. That is what blacks do well..down their own without hesitation. Whitey doesn't want her there anyway!! Don't you know they'd die to have a white girl up there copying every black move, style, dance etc. They don't want us up there!! So be happy for Bey...even if you don't like everything she puts out. I hope that Bey will evolve as an artist and start putting out mature material as well. The formula has worked for her for 10 years....but things don't ever remain the same. It's time to put more thought into the songs she's making. It's time to see a "grown-up" Bey because I'm pretty sure she doesn't feel like shes still 21...she is going on 30 now...so yes her music should reflect that. There is a way to disagree with things black folks..people don't have to be so malicious and hurtful. Bey is talented...but she needs to develop a little more in the creative area. Hopefully she will get there. STOP THE IN HOUSE DISCRIMINATION!!!1
