:
EVERYONE DID LOOK GREAT! BEY WAS ABOUT TO CRY AFTER SIGNING FOR THE PRESIDENT & 1ST LADY. THE LIGHT WAS HITTING MARIAH'S DRESS HARD AND MAKING IT SEE THREW. ALICIA WAS ABOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE STEVIE WONDER BUT I WISH HE'D EITHER GO COMPLETELY BALD OR GET SOME LOCK EXTENSIONS IN THE FRONT. HIS HEAD LOOKED HORRIBLE BUT HE STILL SOUNDS SO GOOD!
am I the only one who thought it was a lil wierd, i mean was it a presidential inag. ball or da god*amn MTV awards. I mean seriously, Yeah its a big deal and its history and evry1 is hella proud but it is da dam* President of the USA not da president of a club or a record company....wtf!!
o and evry1 sounded horrible to me except 4 bey
Everything and Everyone was truly BEAUTIFUL yesterday! Just to see everyones reaction not just from America, but from all over! Wow! I am still speechless. What are you going to do to MAKE THAT CHANGE? Did anyone notice, that his speech was the same amount of time as Dr. Kings "I have a Dream" speech? They both were 18 mins long. Wow!
@Badyellabroad- Yeah girl I was kind of taken back by the huge presence of celb-*** but their performances were very classy and befitting to the President and first family. None of them cursed, and Jay-Z didn't once throw in the *** word which was nice. He tried to clean up for this act and that was good to see.
I was mesmerized by Michelle and Barack to even pay attention to the performers gowns. I must say though, SHAKIRA was STUNNING!!! She's lost some weight and her hair was GORGEOUS! Beyonce's "AT last" was mediocre as was her Sears ball gown. Mary was SMOKING and I FELT her energy and excitement. Faith HIll.. Blah.. Stevie and Sting of course are legends and are used to performing at lavish events. Alicia and Mariah WERE on FIRE!! I miss the talented SISTERS that can SANG! When I heard Mariah hitting every note to Hero, and ALicia belting out "no One" I longed for the REAl R and B days of some fifteen years ago.
Mary, Alicia, and Mariah BROUGHT the HOUSE DOWN. Their voices are immaculate, strong, beautiful, and melodic!!!!
@BigSexy1981- Ok if you say so. I'm not going to argue about some jive performers. We got a black president now so to me it's all irrelvant. If you think bey was great good for you. I could care less. Yeah I'm a hater! I'm dying to be just like Beyonce. I want so bad to be a coochie popper and wear revealing outfits DESPITE the fact I'm married and pushing 30. Yep I'm such a hater (sacasm) lol. Get out of here!
If anything I'm envious of Michelle whose classy, smart, and the hottest woman in the world right now and that DIME of a MAN she has LOL... Just kidding
@ GUESSJEAN
HATER DOESN'T MEAN YOU WANT TO BE HER. IT MEANS YOU HATE ON WHAT SHE DOES OR WHO SHE IS.EVERYTIME THERE'S A BEY POST, YOU HAVE SOMETHING NEGATIVE TO SAY..JUST GIVE HER PROPS, SHE DID HER THING ***... YOU BEING A BLACK WOMEN, I WOULD THINK THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT BUT THEN AGAIN ITS YOU SO I GUESS NOT!!
BIGSEXY YOU GOT ME CHEERING AT MY DESK!! ISNT IT HORRIBLE!!! I mean really who can always every single time find something negative to say about this woman??? Its sickning!!
She truly did her thing and thats that. I think her performance was beautiful and genuine. Black women are each others own worst enemies, I thank God I dont fall into that category, never have and never will.
@BIGSEXy1981- Sweetie I give props to whom it is mUCH deserved. I'm not BROUGHT so CHEAP to admire and give props to performers. Sorry.
I give props to Maya Angelou. I give props to Michelle Obama, I give props to Oprah, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys, mariah carey, and any other REAL BLACK WOMAN who impresses me.
Sorry but Beyonce DOESN't IMPRESS me anymore. She did some 10 years ago when I was a teen but at 28 years old, she does nothing for me. That's not knocking her that's just speaking the truth. Now is she pretty? yes. Did she look nice yesterday? Yes. Her talents are extremely mediocre though and I think it's VERY, VERY disrespectful of her to sing a LEGEND's SONG who is VERY MUCH ALIVE and BREATHING. What nerve of her. Also I wonder why she HAD to sing SOMEONE else's song. Why couldn't she SING HER OWN song. She got so many to chose from: " FREAK-EM dresses", "upgrade you", "beautiful liar", "dangerously in love", "crazy", "If I were a boy", "Single ladies", etc, etc.
@BIGSEXY1981
I TOTALLY AGREE! I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME THAT PEEPED THAT. I'M NO BEYONCE FAN OR ANYTHING...BUT *** THIS WOMAN FINDS ANY AND EVERY NEGATIVE THING TO SAY ABOUT HER. IF YOU FON'T LIKE HER GO ON TO ANOTHER STORY!! THAT *** URKS THE HELL OUTTA ME. I USUALLY DON'T COMMENT ON THIS SITE BUT I HAD TO CUZ U HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE SPOT. BESIDES, BEYONCE CAN CARE LESS ABOUT ONE DISGRUNTELED HATA. SHE'S LIVING HER LIFE!!
@GUESSJEANS "Sweetie I give props to whom it is mUCH deserved. I'm not BROUGHT so CHEAP to admire and give props to performers. Sorry. I give props to Maya Angelou. I give props to Michelle Obama, I give props to Oprah, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys, mariah carey, and any other REAL BLACK WOMAN who impresses me."
GIVE PROPS MEANING BE HAPPY THAT SHE'S A BLACK WOMEN THAT'S STRIVE FOR PERFECTION AT HER CRAFT, THAT SHE GIVES TO CHARITY, THAT SHE GIVES BACK TO THE COMMUNITY, OR THAT SHES NOT NEGATIVE. SHE MAY DRESS SEXY BUT THERE ARE MANY ACTRESSES AND SINGER THAT DRESS SEXY.. SHE'S A BLACK WOMEN!!! SOMETIMES I QUESTION YOU AS A BLACK WOMEN BECAUSE YOU ARE SO NEGATIVE TO THIS BLACK WOMEN AND "BROTHAS"(YOU REMEMBER THAT???)..
WHAT AN AMAZING SPECTACLE !!! TO ME MARIAH DID HER THANG SHE WAS THE BEST, AND FAITH HILL IS AMAZINGLY TALENTED ALSO, SHE WAS INCREDIBLE !!!!! ALICIA JUST SOUNDED LIKE SHE WAS ***, MARY WOW DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT WAS !!! BEYONCE' DID OK BUT HER PIPES ARE NOT THE STRONGEST !!! SHE DID GOOD WITH WHAT SHE HAD THO !!! OVERALL IT WAS VERY GOOD THO, PEOPLE WERE PROBABLY JUST NERVOUS AND VERY EXCITED !!! PLUS YOU DONT ALWAYS HAVE TO SING A SONG 1 WAY ALL THE TIME !!!
While it was great to see so many celebs come support Barack, the performances were at best lackluster. Whose idea was it to have Nick Cannon MC the event??? Bad idea..and ALL the singers were horrible. Including Beyonce. And yes Beyonce need to check herself before she walk out onto stage next time, NO ONE wants to see your nipples. Eww..
I was so proud of Beyonce last ***! I'm not the biggest beyonce fan but she did her thang and she sounded absolutely beautiful. I want to congratulate all the performers last *** whether their performance was great or mediocre, they came out last *** for two of the greatest people in THE WORLD!!!! @ Guess Jeans if you think Mariah Carey's performance was good and Beyonce's was bad, I'm sorry you are truly a hater
Whatever. That wasn't Beyonce or any other performers moment. That moment belonged to the first family. So ya'll go right ahead and continue to argue over irrelevant, super rich, spoiled, superficial and shallow superstars ok?
*** it's like some of you are fiening to have my head on a platter. What do you want? A sister can't state an opinion??? In my opinion BEY wasn't that great.. Ok. I see you guys want me to play your game..
Ok. Bey is perfect and her performance was the best I've ever seen in all my life. She was so beautiful and I love her gown and straight long blonde hair. I love her light-skin and I think she is better than our President and Michelle. In fact, she is the most beautiful person to ever walk the face of the earth! Must be nice. Are you guys satisfied now. **rolling eyes**
I'm done with this story today. I'm not the one to bicker back and forth when these stars are not that significant to me. If you guys think she was perfect, then good for you. Good day.
Everyone was fabulous last nite and just the fact that all were present for the occasion is enough to smile about. AND yes Beyonce looked and sounded amazing. JayZ, Denzel, Jamie, Diddy, Faith Hill,Alicia Keys, Mary J, and all in attendance were all feeling the moment as well as the rest of the world. The ignorant black people here can't come up with anything but some foolish talk. Grow up please. Moving on ...the *** was simply historical for all of US.
Okay so I am glad I am not the only one who noticed that Bey's dress was see-through. Was that not a bit inappropriate? I mean she did her thing with the song(which was fitting for the occasion) but that dress, a big NO NO! Mariah is just a mess...ever since that boob job she has been a mess..all she is worried about is her hair blowing in the wind and singing..dumb azz..it's only because her dude Nick was the MC..and why was Nick the MC again? For this to be an inaugural ball, I think better people could have been chosen to perform..but in the end, the Obama's had fun and they our are First Family..it's a new day!
@Big and NOT-SO-Sexy
Umm..what is this mess folks are always babbling about? So what if Beyonce is a black woman? Why does that mean that for another black woman to dislike her is wrong? Why is that 'hating' simply because the queen of all OVERRATED people is not at the top of guessjean's list???
Its okay for STANS to come and falsely praise her in EVERY *** post but not okay for those that don't like her to voice their feelings? PSsshh..'*** outta here with that, bruh.
Guessjeans is not a Beyonce fan and sh!t NEITHER am I and I'll be damned if you easily influenced, poor taste having sheep are going to make me feel bad about it.
@ GuessJeans
Hey doll.. To answer your question, she COULDN'T sing one of her songs because quite frankly SAY MY NAME and BUG A BOO and umm BOOTYLICIOUS and ummm NAUGHTY GIRL aren't exactly what you'd call Inauguration-ready Lol..
She didn't sound bad and she didn't look bad either..i'm just over her..like really really OVER her...lol
@ Bite_Size
Not so Sexy??? You need to look in a mirror sweetheart.. Yeah your body is nice but you have a face that only a mother could love!!
Having an opinion is fine but saying Bey sound terrible yesterday and Mariah sound great is crazy.. And I'm not a fan of plenty of people but I don't go out of my way to bash them...
@Bite_size- Thanks hon! I'm so sick of these sheeple I don't know what to do. They always coming sideways at a person who disagrees with them. It's getting childish.
@BixSexy1981- Well you also have the face onlu a mother could love, Biggie Smalls. You're always on here tripping over Beyonce. She got a man and even if she didn't, I highly doubt she'd give you a chance considering your pockets aren't as fat as Camel's.
I'm not bashing Beyonce. She has a mediocre voice and she isn't wearing a bra. How is this BASHING?!
While Mariah may have performed worse than Beyonce, I enjoyed Mariah's performance A GAZILLION times more than Beyonce because MiMi got a voice. Beyonce doesn't have the "voice" and "at last" isn't her song. If she had ENOUGH class and RESPECT for herself, she would have let ETTA sing her own signiture song and she ALSO would have worn a BRA.
I don't care for Faith HIll or Shakira but I don't have anything negative to say about them because they sung their own original songs and they dressed appropriately for the occassion.
@ GUESSJEANS YOUR THE WORST, BEING THAT I'M A GROWN AZZ MAN, I WON'T EVEN RESPOND TO YOUR BIGGIE SMALLS COMMENT.. I'M NOT GOING TO GO BACK IN FORTH WITH YOU TWO.. BUT I NEVER DISRESPECTED EITHER ONE OF YOU.. AS A MAN, I WOULDNT DO THAT.. MY MOTHER ALWAYS TOLD ME IF I DONT HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY, DONT SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.. P.S.: I'M SURE BEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SONG THAT WAS SUNG.. THE PREDSIDENT WANTED HER TO SING IT..
@ Big and STILL Not-So-Sexy
You sound ***..You can barely see my face, half-wit! Maybe tha EXTRA-SNUG *** easter suit you're wearing is cutting of the circulation to your brain..
She didn't SAY mariah sounded better..she said she enjoyed her performance more because she's sick of Fatyonce..pay attention
And if you say you've never gone out of your way to bash a celeb then add "liar" to your list of faults because EVERYONE has..and its not going out of your way if you're on a *** BLOG that calls for such..quit being a whiner...
I loved watching the First Couple 'slow drag'. My grandmother was using that term all ***, lol. It was really beautiful.
Did anyone else listen to the lyrics of Jay's song? I thought, keep your ode to your own wife to yourself. This IS NOT about yall.
I missed Mariah, but these comments are telling me I didn't miss a thing. Nick was rocking as the DJ. The music was appropriate, nice, and flowed. Alicia, always a good performance. Where was Bey's bra? Not classy. Mary did well until that last note. It scared me a little.
I have a new found respect for BEYONCE! She is becoming a legend so fast! and SHE NAILED THEIR FIRST DANCE SONG "AT LAST" UNDER SO MUCH EXTREME PRESSURE! SHE DID SO GOOD! MARIAH iam so disappointed in her! she sang that song a whole octave lower and she sounded so average! I was like wow! but Mary did good as well, not all that but good! but BEY stole the show! a TRUE STAR! AND U CANT HATE ON HER! SHE ALWAYS DELIVERS!
I agree that sometimes I get Beyonce fatigue, she's everywhere, her songs are always on the radio and always hearing her and seeing her can get downright annoying. My suggestion to some of the people here that are tired of her. Listen to the jazz radio stations instead of pop radio, avoid the award shows and definitely avoid Mediatakeout for a few weeks and that usually will get rid of Beyonce fatigue for a while
Can somebody please tell me WHY THE HELL WASN'T ETT JAMES INVITED TO SING HER SONG AT LAST?
THIS IS RIDICULOUS! The lady is still alive and has an incredible voice. Bey doesn't do that song justice I would have rather heard Queen Latifah sing it than Bey if Etta wasn't singing it WHY??????????????
Anyway I Michelle and Obama looked really beautiful its so nice to see a real black family in the media being portrayed in a genuine way and not promoting a stereotype.
I think Mariahs' performance was amazing it was a little shaky in the beginning but she cleaned it up towards the end. Everybody sounded great to me. One of my favorite parts was when Ray Romano came out. I taped the Ball I wish I would've taped the actual Inauguration.
I never thought I see the day when people say Mariah Carey is "average and can't sing"
Why does Jay Z insist on wearing those ugly glasses. I guess he wants to take our eyes off his face. But I'm sorry it's not working I still know he's not attractive. I also hope he doesn't think we are laughing with him, because I'm really laughing at him. Alicia has on a very beautiful dress. I really hate I didn't get a chance to hear her sing.
Alicia Keys had a really nice perfomance, but she should have worn a ball gown instead of that *** dress and those patent leather shoes, but a beautiful
Beyonce did very good(the best of the ***), but she should have worn a more flattering gown, face was pretty as usual
Mary could have done better, she looked pretty could have picked a better dress to wear
Mariah...smh...she sounded way off, she sings so much better than that she needs 2 get it together, not to mention that that gown she had on looked like a TRAVESTY
if you dont agree, then theres a 99% chance that your hating, every lady is talented in their own way and cannot be compared to anyone but themselves, but for the *** the order goes Beyonce, Alicia, Mary, then Mariah. You mad?
@guessjeans & bite_size why is RICK ROSS hounding you? I thought that was RICK ROSS, I had no clue that is someone calling themselves bigsexy. I guess big is the new sexy. I just don't understand why these stans think this woman is our god and savior. None of us get on here and hound Gavin when he constantly discusses how sweet, humble, and nice Beyonce is. So why do they have to attack us.
Mariah Carey and Shakira sounded horrible. Everyone else did a really great job, especially Beyonce. I coulda see her breasts through that dress though! haha. What a wonderful day yesterday was! My father lives in PG County (right outside of DC), and he wanted me to come with him and his wife and kids... but I passed because it was too cold for me. I wish I would've went now, cold & all. But at least I can still tell my kids that I MADE and I WITNESSED history on November 4, 2008 & January 20, 2009! God bless America.
@stefjay1972- Hey girl! These stans get defensive because they just as mental as beyonce's psychotic behind. "Birds of a feather, flocks together" and these steeple cater to all that is shallow and hollow just like their girl beyonce lol. Free thinkers don't get offended if another person's opinion differs from their own. They have the mental capacity to know that people are individuals free of their own thoughts, actions, choices, etc. This is WHY you won't find us (me, you, Bite_size, Callicrew, Antidumb, and others) slinging the FIRST insults. The only time I get offended is when these silly, goofy stans come at me sideways! Other than that, I simply post my opinion and keep it moving.
BTW) Do you see Beyonce isn't wearing a bra? I'm sure she did this on purpose. Of course the stans will swear that they don't see her areolas peaking from that dress but I do. She's a sneaky somebody to know.. I know she did that deliberately. Oh well. That's on her
@ yuckfou You done lost yo *** mind thinking A Keys is a much better singer than Beyonce- if that was the case she would've been chosen to sing the first dance song for the first couple. A Keys is a piano player winging it in the singing department! Why you think most of her songs have different versions of the same tired *** chorus OH,OH,OH,OH,OH, its called filler to fill up the song cause she really cant sing, let alone dance,you cant even dance to none of her *** shes BORING. And those spaced out get-ups she wears????like her 1 dimensional lyrics about love??? Her music is just like she looked last ***: TIRED.
Mariah brought memories back with tha Hero song
Mary & Alicia did they thang as usual!
Jay-Z.......HATED IT!! (Living Color voice) Loved the Obama background though
Shakira was a mess altogether, don't know what was going on wit her
WTF was up with Kanye's hair??? LOL
Beyonce oooh where do I begin??? I really wished Jennifer or Fantasia would of sung for the Obama's first dance! Know they would of took that joint back to chuuuch! (My fellow Georgians Baptist Church raised folk know what I'm talkin' bout!!) I know it's a lot of yall on here that are obsessed with Beyonce & may think I'm a hater but I am not I do like Beyonce some of the times but *** was NOT one of these times! I thought that she could of did so much better & picked another song to perform!!! "At Last" was not the right song at all! But I can say that I did like her dress, HATED the silver nails though
Just seeing Michelle & Barack address the stage as the new PRESIDENT & FIRST LADY made me sooooo proud to be black in America! I was watchin them show everybody else how we blacks can really get down dying laughin!! Barack did that George Jefferson on they ***!! LOL
@stefjay1972
LOL..babes, I have no idea why that velvet tub of lard is harrassing us..apparently he took time away from his cheeseburgers and little debbies and felt the need to be an *** on the internet..
@guessjeans
Lol..you are S-I-L-L-Y!!
@ w8keup
LMFAO! That is a wonderful point..not really sure why she wasn't and she's I dunno..STILL ALIVE..that wasn't cool.
@Gurlsluvgems
LOL @ the soultrain awards..it really does!!
and of course
@ Big and Sweaty1981
Look Tubby, I'm done talking to you. I've alreay given you more attention than you're worth. Whether you agree with my opinion of Beyonce or not matters NONE! I still won't like her, she'll still be everywhere, and you'll still be fat, black, ugly, and well..ugly..so do me a favor and quit ***-riding my posts, please and thank you! P.S--if you cooperate, there's a twinkie in my cabinet with your name on it ;-)
Don't you people see what this page is doing, they are making a whole lot of brownie points, as well as money, letting you people act like ebommics centered around the most important day in your dumb livies. Have you know respect? The President and the First Lady deserves more than the discusting trash on this page. Save that for your own enjoyment at those trash bens some of you (and you know who you are), party in. This shows just how much class some of you have.
Mr President and Mrs First Lady, if you really want to hear how beautiful that song really is you should hear it sung by its owner Etta James, another beautiful song is I'm your Lady and You are my Man by Salin Deyon. To hear them sing you can say now thats singing. We Love YOU and YOUR FAMILY MR. and MRS PRESIDENT and FIRT LADY, and may, GOD BLESS YOU ALL TOO. The Kimball Family. AMEN
Mr President and Mrs First Lady, You have done the United States of America proud, as well as the rest of the World. Some of our biggest and most properous should have seen this and done better than the trash on this page. I am truly surpprised at them as well as the page owner. Media take out, get it right now. Fix. Our Young folks are this stuff at least fix it for them. The Kimball Family.
IF Y'ALL BEEN BUYING INTO BEYONCE FAKE KOOL-AIDE...THE NOSE JOBS (MY MAKEUP ARTIST FRIEND HAS BEEN DOING BEYONCE'S MAKE-UP FOR YEARS AND HAS WITNESSED AND CAPTURED 2-3 PROGRESSIONS OF HER NOSE), THE LACE-FRONTS...THE GIRL IS AWARE THAT SHE CAN NOT APPEAR TO THE MASSES BASED ON HE GOD GIVEN LOOKS. SHE HAS TO ENHANCE HERSELF. BUT PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME THAT YOU CANNOT SEE THE BOOB ENHANCEMENTS!!! PLEASE THIS IS SOOO IN YOUR FACE.
1ST, NO BRA TO THE INAUGURATION? ONLY WOMEN WITH BREAST IMPLANTS KNOW THAT DONT NEED A BRA TO HOLD THEM UP.
2ND, THEY ARE MUCH MORE ROUND AND PLUMP AND AT ATTENTION THEN THEY EVER WERE BEFORE. THE NIPPLES ARE OFF TO THE SIDE EVEN. YOU CAN SEE IN THE SEE-THROUGH GOWN.
3RD,WITH THAT GHETTO BOOTIE THAT EVERY OTHER SISTAH HAS IN THIS WORLD, SHE HAD TO BALANCE THINGS OUT. HER TATS HAD ALWAYS BEEN *** NEAR FLAT ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO HER BIG LEGS AND ***.
SO PEASE, LADIES AND GENTS, STOP BELIEVING THE BEYONCE HYPE. SHE IS LIKE ONE OF THEM BLONDES YOU SEE IN LA.....LACEFRONT WIGS 24/7, AT LEAST 2 NOSE JOBS, AND NOW SOME SIZE 38 C FAKE TATS. JAY'S CHICK IS A FRAUD & AS FAKE AS THEY COME.
BEYONCE IS AND WILL ALWYAS BE A MEDIA ***!!
I coined that term years ago!!!!!!
So special for her to sing for BArack like she sang for George BUsh. Aww she cried .. phoney azz ho,, her acting skills might have helped her for once.
She only supported BArack after he beat Hillary not before. Beyonce is a media pig. She binges off what the media glorifies and stick with it. Anything to get her face in anything. She is like oneof those southern tumble weeds. She blows any way the winds goes!!!!!!!!!!!!
I respect people of true substance and conviction. If you don't stand for something you fall for anything so I see why Bey fans are so naive.
Proud for the black star power but this was a coon show. Her outfit came off whorish because that is her persona. She had to create a fake personolity to beherslef a *** named sasha.
Beyonce is a speaker box. She has no songs of her own to sing so she could only sing someone else's.
I really wish someone would sit Beyonce *** down.. Quick!!!!!! I am beginning ot think they do pay the radio stations. I can't escape the biatch. For real. It is like *** there she go again. The radio is so weak and play the same 2 artist everyday. beyonce and Sasha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thnk those 1800 that are going to lose their jobs at the radios stations this month should told them jockies to play better music and maybe they could have kept their jobs!!!! Thank God for satelllite. You can listen to more selections.
Went to the concert on Sunday, not too bad but it was not worth it. They only showed BArack a few times. i could care less about the artist; it ain't *** they can do for me.
The only two I have respect for are Barack and Michelle.
okay. i've read these comments about beyoncce so im going to speak. To guess jeans i understand where you are coming from as i understand many others. No i am not a beyone fan. i am an old school im a fan of genuine singers who back in the day didnt have to show so much to get so much attention. I am a singer as well and i study the greats. Pay attention Whitney nor gladys nor patti had to wear half the clothes that beyonce did to get the over exposure that she receives. Mariah i will forever luv mariah but i luv the old mariah with the curly hair that didnt wear the things she has now. Yes beyonce is a good performer and she had a great hubby and many lovve her i get that. But beyonce didnt get half the publicity that she recieves now as she did when she was in destinys child. When she started revealing more clothes, changed ger hairstyle and engaged in a private affair with jay z thats when her fan base went up because *** SELLS i get that. Diana ross i remember her wearing kneee dresses but she sung she didnt dance and her performances were classy she was not booty popping or having wardrobe malfuntions and to me that is what makes a true diva. I've noticed most people who like to go to clubs and parties like beyonce but older people with a better mature mindset dont because tey know the quality of music as far as making it for the right reasons. I highly doubt if beyonce wore long dresses like whitney she would be half the star she i now because people only know her as a performer and a *** icon. Yes whitney was on drugs and mariah went crazy but at the sam time NONE OF YOU KNOW WHAT BEYONCE IS TRULY DOING. Im upset because this should be about brack not praising someone who is trying to take up any amount of spotlight to get publicty and if she ws not trying to get the attention she obviously getting than she wouldnt have offered her services she would have been patient like the OTHER CELEBS AND BARACK WOULD HAVE ASKED HER TO SING BEFORE SHE WOULD EVEN HAVE HAD TO OPEN HER MOUTH. just because someone doesnt like a singer or performer doesnt mean they are hating you guys it just simply means their taste in todays society is different. there are probably performers that we like that you dont like it is what it is. But there are many UNDERRATED SINGERS who do not recieve the attention they should. Which is another thing why beyonce is so well know and thats because she has GOOD MARKETING with good marketing u can acheive lots. I was HUGE FAN OF BRITNY SPEARS and yes we all know the girl cant sing but why was she soooo popular? she had good marketing and she was under great management. Leona Lewis Amel Larrieux both have OUTSTANDING WONDERFUL VOICES they dont get nearly as much attention as beyonce and to me they sound way much better. and im just being honest. WHITNEY MARIAH DIANA GLADYS TINA PATTI AND MISS ARETHA all earned their way through the music industry and they didnt have to do have the stuff that most performers today do which is why for many elegant events as this one many wanted to just see maybe ALICIA KEYS AND JENNIFER HUDSON because they carry themselfs classy. Beyonce does not have many songs to choose from because their all the same their either about *** IN THE CLUB OR ***, yes she has created wonderful anthems for us ladies but noones gonna play singe ladies like they do whitney houstons " I will always love you". YOU CAN NOT GO TO AN AUDITION AND SING ANY OF BEYONCES SINGS EXCEPT MAYBE DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE BECAUSE THATS A BEAUTIFUL SONG OR BE WITH YOU OR WOMAN LIKE ME OR IF I WERE A BOY(MAYBE). do you all understand where some people are coming from when they say things lik this because i do.
i get what two of the other people were saying when they feel on all the beyonce thread Miss Guess jeans u make smart comments but this site is up here to state different opinions i have seen many beyonce thread with people praising her eery movement every word so just like people r entitled to post how much they adore this girl people should have the freedom to post how they dislike her. i should feel offended people are talking about mariah carey sounding bad. she did bad on one performance what about all the years mariah spent making songs we could relate to. when i hear cant let go i cry that song really touches me. i am not a hater i give credit were credit is due and me wanting to be a singer in this industry i pa attention to what gets attention and what doesnt. music will never be the ame sadly
This whole weekend should have been about BARACK OBAMA. Barack is more famous than all of these celebs and the good thing about Barack is he is promoting change and has inspired others to wanna do the same. Mihelle Obama shoud have also ben the HIGHLIGHT of everyones talk this is a classy woman who represents what a true American Woman should. She is successfl with a succesful husband BEAUTIFUL kids my goodness her kids are so beautiful and her heart is in the right place and she hs a reat education background and has went to top of the line schools. Let that be a focus. Let the change we are facing be a focus not who was wearing what or who is better than who lets focus on who the attention was supposed to be about this week. to late for that cause the weeks almost over see how we undereducate ourselfs. I think we should study ourself and work on improving what as people we need to fix do the best ou guys possible can to get atlest half the amount of attention that u give star excuse me everyday people who have publicist and money cause all u doing is PAYING BEYONCE MARIAH AND MARY J's bills while u probably at home strugging to make ends meet. I learned it doesnt matter what is said or done at the end of the day that person is still gonna either be an idol to some annoying to most and liing their life. Music will neer be the same but as long as you know and understand what music is and allow the right things to influence you like God Inspiration adn the Bible than thats all that matters. Thats my closing.
