and seriously we don\’t give a fuck about the 3 dumb people who will not buy the album other millions will. and stop bringin ciara britney and other craps next to her, they are not on the same level.
one of the best video of this year and so simple. only the Queen.

Hot damn beyonce did it again this video is so out of the box, something nobody expected cause the whole video was about the choreography. It doesnt matter about what ppl say was wrong or it was wack cause her album is gonna sell and she has already proved herself as a solo artist. So much respects

sTARbOY!
October 13th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
BOTH VIDEOS R HOTTTT!!! I MEAN WAT MORE CAN WE ASK FOR LIKE SERIOUSLY..
!watevaisayistrue !
October 13th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
The song is exactly like Get Me Bodied. How is that hot?!?!?!

As for the video, I wish she didn’t do videos where she is half ass naked and gyrating all over the place. Reminds me of strippers. She promotes “sex sells”. Like someone stated, she’s married. She doesn’t have to prove anything. The video could have been just as hot with her wearing more clothes.
Oh well!
October 13th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
HOT GARBAGE! It looks like most of the videos from her B-Day era. Just in black and white. Get Me Bodied prt 2 is PURE TRASH! Rihannas probably laughing her ass off right now. I mean seriously bee. Is this the BEST u and your team can come up with? If you wanna snatch that crown off of Ri-ris head. U’ve GOTTA come harder than this.

Oh and what was the point of the ending? What uv waited 6yrs 4 a ring? LOL, just stupid

haha beyonce WORKED it in the Single Ladies video. damn.the song may not be as good as \\\’if i were a boy\\\’, but the choreography is up to par. WAY better than \\\’get me bodied\\\’. wow. her dancing skills cannot be denied. she outperformed ciara, if you compare \\\’go girl\\\’ and \\\’single ladies\\\’. beyonce rules. awesome.

#23, and atleast Britney was in a bad state when she made that video. Beyonce has no excuse!

I would also like to add that with Britney’s new music video “Womanizer” kills this video. Beyonce’s got to bring it harder this time around, she’s now competing with not only Ciara and Brandy but f’n Britney Spears.

beyonce is a force 2 b recond with, a video wit just her and 2 girls dancing and its in black and whie. she is tryin 2 show that she can do a video so simple and still have a hit. shes here 2 stay!

The video is okay,its not what i was hoping it would be and expected it to be.When i saw \\\’if i were a boy\\\’,I like it,but I still was hoping that \\\’single ladies(put a ring on it)\\\’ would have done way better.#17,I totally agree with you.As a christian,a married woman,she needs to put more clothes on.She doesn\\\’t need to be naked to sell records cause shes got talent,and her voice is beautiful,especially when shes wearing somewhat of a bathingsuit and stretching like that across the floor.Alicia keys is already an icon and she makes beautiful music and videos without being naked or revealing.She proves that you don\\\’t have to sell sex for people to buy your records. Beyonce can be an icon and will be one,she just needs to stop making music as if she just got a record deal.She does not need to compete with anyone,shes been here before them.haitians 4 beyonce !!!!!

#27 i feel ya. B can do the dance in the video live and sound flawless. ciara and CB have not hit that point yet. but ciara and CB are some beast when it comes to dancin. and so is B… so leave the dancin to chris and cici??!! i think not. B will tear some shit up any givin day. But the video… i liked it. a story line culd of helped but i still liked it.

I don’t like the song or video. I hate when they do videos in black and white. I don’t like the other song either. Not a Beyonce fan so I’m not surprised I don’t like this new junk.

I’m a fan of Mrs Carter..but yall so die hard fans that anything she drops you soak up and not seeing or paying attention to the quality and everything else in between, personally this is not Beyonce best work so stop playing…she is a grown and married women what the hell is all the gyrating and jumping around..her music has not GROWN..kkk..is she competing w/ the younger audience…Single Ladies..do we need a song about this on every album..cmon this is Irreplacable..and Get Me Bodied all mixed in one..so stop playing..Beyonce Can come harder this this!!!

everybody is funny!!! i love b but i must agree she is at a place n her career where she can do anything and people will love it example these 2 videos. I agree wit somebody she should come harder being as though everybody jocking her! she could fart on a track an everybody would b n love. Before the hate starts im a B fan!!!!

tahirah, I agree 100%… this is just a disappointment in the history of Beyonce’s career. I’m not feeling neither songs. I wish her luck with this album though cuz I’m not spending any dollars on this one. You can add me to the group of 3 that don’t like the songs cuz there’s plenty more people who ain’t feeling the songs either.
