Freakum Dress:

Beautiful Liar with Shakira:

The more I see Beyonce since Dreamgirls, the more I think that she is the naughties version of Diana Ross:
1) Her image is much stronger than her voice (just like Diana) competition keyword: wannawin
2) She used to be part of an all-girl group but ditched them to persue a solo career (just like Diana)
3) She has huge hair (just like Diana)
4) She's constantly working (just like Diana was)
Let's just hope that she doesn't end up making the drink/drug mistakes that Diana allegedly did...

    I think that Beyonce is a great entertainer but she is VERY over exposed...why make a video for nearly every song on her new album? And I still feel it is mediocre compared to Dangerously in Love....She has her finger in every pie (fair play to her) but she is everywhere and she needs to slow down take a break for about a year and ALLOW the fans to miss her or at least savour what she has already done? Usher took a break and he came back with the best album of his career (Confessions)...

    Take a hiatus Ms Knowles

    i think mistajam got it wrong wen he said her image outshone her voice. yes she has a very strong image (strong/buff/sexy...all the same 2 me) but her voice is really what stands her apart from the mediocre r'n'b troop that attempt to follow her, like ciara (who i think is a very good artist) and rihanna (who i think is er...different) etc. her voice is leaps and bounds above the competition. shes doing something great at the moment and she's at the top of all of her games (movies, music, fashion etc.) let her do her thing I say. plus, shes buff, nuff said.

    I think that it has become all about Beyonce the superstar and not so much about Beyonce the artist. I think her last albulm was weak to say the least. She has an amazing voice which has become second to her image.... I think she needs to concertrate on making good music not good videos and adverts.....

    I personally feel she's a bit of a man hater. She's very beautiful and successful which I am proud of as a black man, but I don't think she should put out so many negative songs about men as we aren't all bad.

    I saw the videos with my 11 year old daughter. She thinks that Beyonce and Shakira are cool. I think the same thing too.

    I want to add that Beyonce [as well as Shakira] are the few artists in this century that have talent. I think Beyonce and Shakira will go far in their career and in the history of music.

    I myself will go further, I would like to replace the Statue of Liberty in New York with a statue of Beyonce and proceed do replace statues and currencies in the USA with pictures of Beyonce and Shakira [since they are symbols of peace].

    When Cuba has democracy, I would like to place a statue of Shakira and Beyonce in the centre of Havana Cuba.

    Mistajam: I forgot to add a little piece of information for your programme which also makes Beyonce great.

    Beyonce and the Mexican Singer wrote and interpreted the theme song to the latest Soap Opera based on the Spanish Legend "Zorro" currently being broadcast by the US Latin Station Telemundo.

    I heard her sing the duo with Alejandro Fernandez and she has proven herself to be a symbol of globalization. More reason to replace the monuments in USA and the faces of the US Dollar with her face.

    Last but not least, I saw the Austin Power film of Goldmember in which she was one of the stars. Her part in the film with Mike Myers as Dr. Evil and Austin Power as well as Michael Caine as Nigel Powers made me laugh.
