lol OMFG lol

Its just too everything.

It is very Mariah when shes in the field. Is the look ie the swamp, plantation house, African dance suppose to have something to do with her allegedly being part Creole or something? It could have been a great vid but instead its just... too.


what excatly is Creole??


There are a few definitions depending on who you ask or where you look (it*s also a language spoken in the Caribbean, especially Haiti) so according to the MSN Encarta (altho some would include descendents of Native Americans as well):

African descendant born in Americas: somebody of African or mixed African descent born in the Americas

Caribbean person of European ancestry: somebody who comes from a Caribbean or Latin American country and is of European, especially Spanish descent

Somebody of French ancestry: somebody who comes from the southern United States, especially southern Louisiana, and is descended from early French settlers

First of all the meaning of deja vu not thinking about someone all the time.

the term deja vu is actually french for "already seen".

Jay said he used to read the dictionary[...]

this explains everything. there's a huge difference between reading the dictionary and comprehending what's in the dictionary.

fuckers are giving my birth name a bad name, i'm tellin you...it's a gotdamned shame. falloff

Well, after I heard the change in the song I was waiting for her to sing "Welcome to heart-break hotel" on the chorus. MJ may just have Londell give her a call and ask for a piece of this one for the bassline on that change. biggrin

This video is all over the place. I was LMAO @ the Denise Richards fried blonde wig with split ends and red evening dress in the middle of a fuckin' SWAMP. *DEAD* Once the video hits the halfway mark, it's just random shots of the bitch runnin' here and there, making BUG EYES at the camera.

just saw the vid:

this girl is like a high yella, hyperactive, Diana Ross....Jay-Z just played the role of Berry Gordy...he's just there stiff as a board looking like

"damn did ya'll get the take on this shit or what??? I got an appointment with Rihanna at the Ritz so can ya'll hurry the fuck up???"

with all of the unbalanced shaking and jiggling going on in that video, no wonder homegirl lost weight, she looked like she could have burned off 10 pounds in that video alone!!!!

what was the grabbing at Jay's belt about? must wasn't much of a grab since he didn't even move an inch when she did it...looked like they got it on the 20th shot.

it was too many fast shots for me, i thought i was seeing double at one point...
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

oh yes it fuckin' is!!!! i'd rather see Mariah parading though Europe any day with Pharrell than to see that Beyonce bullshit.

there's one thing i can respect about Mariah, her ass don't try too damn hard to prove herself to nobody cuz she know her ass can out sing most of these R&B and pop singers....all she has to do is walk and sit pretty while her voice does all the work.

you'll never see Mariah stomping in some dirt or almost trying to pull a guy's belt off with her teeth. she doesn't have to.

i have seen like 3 mariah videos where she is sitting in randoms rappers lap... PLUS MARIAH tries to hard to look sexy eek ... she doesnt have to try hard to sing but she always try to hard... the way she poses.. the things she says all her gestures look fake... so i rather see beyonce... and mariah's video looked so retouched... her face had no kind of wrinkle... and you know she has some wrinkles wink .... so like i said before MARIAH'S VIDEO WAS THE WORST... it was just motion 'BEAUTY' shots of her... it wasnt even really a video... she was trying to hard to look 'SEXY' eek ... she never lets it come natural.. she always has on something skin tight (which is her trying to look sexy, if your so sexy you dont have to wear skin tight cloths all the time.. of course guys will think your sexy... cause you wear tight cloths and your always half naked... )... i dont remember ever seeing her wear jeans and a sweater... after 1997.... BUT all the same beyonce video is SO DEJA VU wink ... same moves, it looks like all her videos put together... its so typical for beyonce.... she needs to change her looks....

At least that video has Paris (however underused it was), and some nice fashions, which this video DOESN'T.

I got 2 words for the Deja Vu video, HOT MESS. I was lost throughout the whole thing. I get the point that she's hot and can dance but it was way too much. At the end she was dancing like she was having an epileptic seizure. It was very disturbing. The song is just as mediocre but I can bop to it. And when all is said and done, I will get her new CD but so far, this is not encouraging.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

That was just waaaay too many cutaway images to try to digest.

I'm glad I didn't watch this after a good Friday night happy hour 'cause my head would be spinning in circles right about now.

...and I'm sorry, but all that bayou imagery just has Tina Knowles' imput all over it...like you expect me to believe the scenario that Jay-Z would be sitting up in some dark, hot ass plantation house with a fan nowhere to be seen confused...and again, I'm so sick of watching her grind all up against him I don't know what to do. We have seen THAT move so many times, it really is time to give it a rest lol

maybe you are just too much on Beyonce's jock to actually SEE the video the most of everybody else does, as a waste of time.
