http://www.petitiononline...ition.html

To: Columbia Records, A Division of Sony BMG
This petition is for the advocacy of having Ms. Beyonce' Knowles, Columbia Records, Music World Entertainment, and all other entities associated with the creative process of creating the long-form music video known as "Deja Vu" reshoot aforementioned video immediately.

This video is an underwhelming representation of the talent and quality of previous music video projects of Ms. Knowles. The following problems have been pointed out by numerous fans on and offline:

A) There is no clear story or theme to the video
B) The dancing is erratic, confusing and alarming at times
C) The sexual themes and shots between Ms. Knowles and Mr. Sean Carter PKA Jay-Z, are alarming and show unacceptable interactions between the two
D) The fashion in this video, while haute-couture, is unbelievable and ridiculous
E) The editing, while professionally done, causes one to get dizzy and disoriented
F) The overall feel of the video leaves a sense of much to be desired
G) The video is very disappointing and is not a clear representation of any of the songs themes

We, the fans of one Beyonce' Knowles, ask that an alternative video be shot featuring; more choreographed & less spontaneous dancing, clearer visual themes that relate to the lyrics of the song, less gyrating, less scenes of non-existant sexual chemistry between Mr. Carter and Ms. Knowles, less zooming and quick cut edits and a more stylized and clear direction for all other aspects of the video production.

Suggested in this re-shoot would be the hire of another producer besides Ms. Sophie Mueller -- one more acclimated to urban themes and imagery in music videos, other than Hype "Letterbox" Williams.

Sincerely,

Wow I didn't realize how averse Americans were to African style dancing. Whitebred anyone?

Does anyone have the link to the video?

can someone do the same thing for Janet? and ask Virgin and Janet to stop rehasing the janet. album.

I couldn't care less about the video being redone. Sure, B acts ridiculous in the original version but it's amusing to see her make a complete fool of herself, now isn’t it?

Yeah I admit that the scene with sucking Jay Z's belt is rather very alarming but hey, don’t hate on B just because of her great looks. She is an artists first and formost, and that's her mode of expression.

The point that I’m trying to make is that instead of the petition urging for a new video there should be a formal request issued, which would encourage Beyonce to buy herself a dictionary maybe even a thesaurus, check the REAL meaning of ‘Déja vu,’ and rewrite the damn song, so it makes sense.

Having listened to her lyrics I must say that she has absolutely no clue what the phrase really means.

This is kinda weird but I'm not mad at the idea of reworking the video. Just as amusing as the video itself

I just watched the video. I see nothing wrong with it.

Now why don't I find that surprising?

Amen to that!

I know that's right. Deja Vu is NOT seeing someone everywhere you go. If she didn't wear so much damn weave, she wouldn't think she was seeing someone everywhere she goes. Damn.

When it's done correctly it's actually very beautiful to watch. When Beyonce does it, it looks like she just stepped on a hill of red ants.

PurpleCharm said:

OMG, this shit is hilarious!! Who knew some unemployed bitches could be so funny??



WTF?? I think that's bullshit The video needs a better focus & less intrusive editing. I don't know what making it "more urban" would have to do with anything - a good video is a good video

They should have done this for Mariahs Say Somethin Video which was her worst ever, which is why the song bombed. The editing was really bad, director Paul Hunter (i think) seemed to have a hangover when he did this one, Beyonces was bad too, but really all they are, are ways for these girls to show their bodies, if U wanna show talent do a good song and do some good shows, screw the videos.

I still haven't seen this video
