Beyonce's(Upgrade You) & Ciara's(Like a Boy) video premieres

I love how they both play the role of the guy or male in the video but I have 2 say I was real hype when Ciara dances with herself and when Beyonce played Jay-Z's role and she...well,watch it wink
Im really feelin both of em but they definitely are playin Upgrade You 2 much in Philly but the video has redeemed it 4 me lol

I don't care for the song Like A Boy, (there are better songs on the album) but I do like the part when she's dancing with herself and I sooo thought of the Matrix too. Neo's got nothing on her.

I don't like this new mix they did on the song, but it's one of my favorite from Ciara's album

I prefer the whole ending sequence to Like A Boy since looking like a boy doesn't seem to leave my mind...

I didn't even find myself hating them. The Beyoncé song was far more listeneable to my ears than many of the earlier singles.

I finally watched Bey‛s video and the one thing I hated about that song was all the name brand dropping and what I guess her idea of upgrading is. Not my thing but seeing it is even worse. In some shots she looks like Ashanti, then when shes sitting in the chair she looks like a slimmed down Queen Latifah?

the hat, the bridge part with the bangs and the moves after that that reminded me of Ghosts and his performances in the 90's. The toe move as well. She always talks about being inspired by mj so I wouldn't be surprised if she was emulating him for the video

At least this beyonce song is far more listenable than the first 3
forgettable singles from b-day.
Ciara's like a boy is one of the tracks from the cd that always caught my
ear. Damn she is beautiful.
Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint
