Probaly not... and its beacuse I've seen to many kids growing up get abused by family members and outsiders because he's doing something that some might perceive as soft.... whoever taped this and is coaching may think its cute, but once people that know who this little kid is see this... it's not going to be.... I promise you... I'm a black man who grew up with an openly gay uncle and i saw first hand how rough it was for him in the black community. [Edited 3/20/07 11:26am] | |

[Edited 3/20/07 11:26am] I hear you, and it seems clear you have sympathy for your uncle. But don't you think the way to start changing the way people treat gay folks is to embrace kids like this, and put the blame on bigots and bullies rather than TV or pop stars?

[Edited 3/20/07 11:36am] Sadly I lost him a couple of years back he was 27, anyway I'm not blaming Beyonce (I was just being silly)...I wouldn't shun this kid if he were mine or was a kid that i knew and i believe that's because my mother and my uncle were really close (my uncle was my father's little brother) and she told me after he passed that when she met my uncle he was 6 yrs old and she said that she knew then and being that my father didn't bother with him so much she took him everywhere she went....my problem with this is that i think the person who posted it thought that it was cute and it's going to do more harm than good | |

banks said: sms130 said: That was cool. That lil' dude was feeling it. I think that it was cool but, who ever posted that for the world to see needs their a good ass whooping. It's not a good look. HE IS A BOY! Somebody need to get him a male role model without the other stuff with it. No disrespect and I hope that I don't offend anyone but, that should not have been posted online. It would have been ok, if a they showed some friends or someone close to them this clip but not the world. That's not a good look. Beyonce is not the blame of this type of thing. It's the boy's parents or the ones that's responsible for him is to blame, not Beyonce. Stuff like this creats CONTROVERSY.
I did say that beyonce really isn't responsible Yeah, I know what you said, The reason why we blame her and other stars like her, is cause it is easier to do that than to put the blame on the real culprit....ourselves. Yes, there should be more funding for after school activities, but what is being done about it? Who is doing the complaining? Most of use just chose to let the other parent say something. I can see both arguments....There is noway in hell, that I as a parent or responsible adult will let my child watch the televison unsupervised. In my day, my mom would tell me to go read a book. Then again, at least it is not something as violent as what is in the streets. There is an old saying, "It takes a village to raise a child". Well, these days, it seems like all of the villagers have left the village....leaving the kids to raise themselves.....and that's a shame. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

If you think THAT was bad, wait till you see this kid who performed the Icelandic Eurovision entry from 1999 live on primetime national television in Iceland .... Shiiiit, I feel sorry for that kid and I wonder what the hell were his parents thinking 
I know it's SO wrong but still I can't help it...

Just saw the clip...Really, what the fuck is so bad about it? So a little boy is dancing to a Beyonce song...doesnt make him gay necesarilly. Not that there'd be anything wrong with it if he did turn out gay. He's just a little kid who's jamming to a song that he likes. That's all. No need to read too much into it and get all homophobic. | |

I think a little girl imitating Beyonce and singing that song would've offended lots of people too.....it wouldn't be a sexual orientation issue though.  looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

If I had a son, I'd rather for him to sing Beyonce than Jay-Z.
