it's clear B lives in a fantasy world she also said she wanted to be the first black woman to win an oscar, tony and grammy. Sos pointed out Whoopie has all ready done that.

i'm betting Shakira wrote most of it with her songwriter mate/Music Diretor and Beyonce added the Beyonce Beyonce Shakir Shakira part to get a credit

Exactly Video Albums have been done MANY times. Even worse she was on BET later today and she premiered the Video for Upgrade U and Beautiful Liar, and of course they had to say "Thats the first time anyone has premiered two videos in one day" WOW! Can people just stop blowing this girls head up at this point. I did enjoy the vids, but with Beyonce im looking at her and could care less what she sings to be honest.



Now that's a damn lie. Hammer did the same thing years ago with It's All Good & Pumps And A Bumps. These were 2 videos that debut on the same day.


Yeah, many people have done it, in the rock/pop field too. On a side note, I watched this Beyonce premiere on BET so i had to sit through 20-25 minutes of 106th and Park, HOLY CRAP, first that girl that hosts, is annoying,dumb,ignorant,etc....I could feel my IQ dropping as i watched this show, and of course i had to sit through a couple of Videos on the countdown, WTF? oh god what has happend, RB and Rap are getting worse by the minute, can someone get an alternative channel to BET going!

I just watched the video on mtv.com. Shakira is wearing plenty of tight clothes. At the end the two of them are both wearing tight pants.


Yeah but if you notice the beginning with their dresses, Shakiras looks like it was made for someone twice her size and Beyonces seems to be two sizes too small. I think in this vid they just made sure Beyonces clothing was super tight and small and Shakiras was comfortable to a little too big for her to equal them. Its tough because Beyonce is so much taller than Shakira but i think Shakira hip-wise is bigger for her 'frame" than Beyonce.


But then they change clothes and Shakira is wearing something tight while Beyonce is wearing a loose skirt. The director just wanted them to look different until the very end when they are wearing the same thing.

They wouldn't want anyone to outshine Beyonce, now would they? wink

I personally like Shakira much better, especially when she was a rock star.


nod

I think Shakira is the most talented performer of this era. She rocks live!

They trash her off as pop trash but I think it's amazing how she manages to mix middle eastern and latin elements in to her music and still make them nice and catchy.. And yes she can rock too.


omfg that´s a lie! her double album is nothing but mediocre, that´s why she is trying these trash duos. And regarding her spanish era she wasnt better than Cafe Tacuba or Julieta Venegas...

Julieta is generally better on album, but I've seen them both live a few times and Shakira's shows have more pop naturally because she has bigger touring budgets. Julieta usually plays in really small clubs here in the U.S. I love when she pulls out the accordion.
