Beyonce is a good performer to me and I love her songs but there is this one move in the Ring The Alarm video that simply irks the hell out of me. SHe is in the Army hoodie and is like in the corner of the room holding herself up by her feet, which if you ask me says: "oooooo look at how much leg strength I have!"

Beyonce can sing and dance but her head is swelling up and it's not the fake hair, that last cd was not that great but it was and she was everywhere like they were trying to force her and the cd on you.

The bizarrest thing is that they're not HER dance moves at all. Beyonce's die-hard, obsessed fans may want to stay in denial, but these new moves, especially in "Ring The Alarm" to are a direct rip-off of Shakira. Sorry, I can prove it. All you have to do is compare the videos of Shakira(who really does have her own distinct dance style, that incorporates Latin, Belly Dancing, and robotic style moves, as well as her own unique singing style), like "La Tortura", "Objection (Tango)", and "These Hips Don't Lie" to Beyonce's latest videos and its obvious. Need more proof? During the VMA Awards Beyonce herself states that one of her biggest influences is Shakira. All you have to do is watch the videos and the show.

That was a good laugh. I don't hate her, it was just funny. You can't take yourself too seriously and be a celebrity anyway.

Dont be upset because she's been on top for a few years now. Your just hatin' because a black girl took over brittany spears spot. Brittany Spears can't sing, dance or act and I never saw a blog about her. Beyonce' is doing her damn thing. Let her Live!

I THINKTHAT THE MEDIA SHOULD GET OFF OF BEYONCE AND LET HER DANCE HER BUTT OFF.PEACE.

Beyonce is an excellent dancer. Her dance moves are original, creative, and Afro-centric especially in Deja Vu! I love the hard edge she created with "Ring the Alarm." Beyonce is a versatile performer who knows how and when to step outside of the box. I enjoy how she recreates herself. At least, she will is not boring.

WHY DO PEOPLE FLINF HER DANCLING BAD?I DON'T SEE WHERE IT IS BAD AT ALL.

I was one of the first to run out and buy the "Destiny's Child" CD for my stepdaughters. Its not a color thing either. I'm Black (Biracial) and they're White, and when the local Pop radio station played "Bills" we all danced and sang until my car until it bounced like a East LA Lowrider. But I have to agree with some of the commentors on this board. She has gotten really caught up in her own hype and the quality of her singing, dancing, and musical material is suffering. My memory is long enough to recall when J. Lo was supposed to be "IT", "The Triple Threat", "The Bomb" (although, I never thought her singing was world class like Whitney, Celine, Christina). J. Lo could dance, carry a note, and looked good on video so she was hot. Then she got caught up in her own press, like Britney and a host of other Pop Tarts and now they're nobodies in the real music world. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

A lot of Beyonce's moves in Deja Vu were taken from Josephine Baker. Josephine Baker was a flapper and she as known for her sexual movements as well as wild different body movements. It was tribute. It's called Art. The segment about her dancing was dumb. The girl who's hosting this probably doesn't have any rhythm which would explain why she thinks the dance moves are weird.

I seen those dance moves on the movie Roots! She is a no talent hack who got noticed becuase of the talent she was surrounded with And anyone who took the spotlight off of here in the group was kicked out.

Usually I don't think twice about her.. but by the way you are hating on her.. You made me like her. This is silly and a waste of time.

So, you people poke fun at everything that is non white..as though it were intimidating to you or something...Beyonce is in show business..she is a performer!! That is her job azzwipe! And what is with the pseudo-ebonics?..I don't recall Beyonce using those words..ever in a performance.
And the ugly inbred bitc* doing the video..stick to giving head behind the starbucks...

AIN'T NOBODY HATEN ON BEYONCE! WHAT MAKES HER SO SPECIAL THAT SHE CANT BE TALKED ABOUT? SHE'S GOT LOOKS AND SOME TALENTS, BUT SHE AIN'T THE END ALL TO BE ALL. THERE ARE BETTER OUT THERE, BUT RIGHT NOW SHE IS THE HOTTEST, SO SHE BETTER GET IT WHILE SHE CAN. IN A FEW SHORT YEARS IF NOT SOONER, THERE WILL BE A NEW "IT" GIRL. REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS, JANET, WHITNEY, MARIAH, MADONNA, VANESSA(WILLIAMS),.ETC...THE LIST GOES ON. THESE WOMEN ALL HAD THEIR MOMENTS WHEN THEY WERE IT AND ALONG WITH BEING THE "IT" GIRL COMES CRITICISM AND JUDGEMENTS....GET OVER IT! DONT TAKE IT PERSONALLY. IT COMES WITH THE TERRITORY. AS LONG AS SHE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING TOO OUTRAGEOUS, BEYONCE WILL BE AIGHT,(ALL DA WAY TO DA BANK)LOL. SO DEAR BEYONCE FANS, DONT GET YO PANTIES/BOXERS IN A BUNCH WHEN YO GIRL GETS RAGGED ON. IT'S ALL ENTERTAINMENT.
