Because she's fake, takes credit for writing songs she didn't and is overexposed, overrated and ruthless. She'll do anything to stay at the top. I just find her to be extremely fake and I don't buy this good girl act she tries to portray at all. I think Beyonce is a wolf in sheep's clothing. She'll step on anyone's toes just to stay ahead.

Now yes she is talented. She can sing (not as great as her fans like to claim, but she definitely has a good voice) and I admit she is one of the best performers of her generation but most of her music is trash. I can't believe that s*itty "Diva" song she just released. That's what's supposed to pass as good music these days? Please. Most of her music sucks. It's the same tired, immature and corny songs with the same stupid lyrics. No substance there with Beyonce the person or her music whatsover.

Vapid and shallow is the best way I can describe Beyonce and her music.

SoulAlive, with so many people disgusted with her right now, I believe that mentioning the tour would be the straw that broke the camel's back. It wouldn't surprise me if she gets hate mail

angel345 said:

She probably gets a LOT of hate mail! Ever since 1999!

I wonder if there's any truth to the story that she to this day hasn't reached out to Jennifer Hudson after the murders.

You can't rest anything because Beyonce hasn't eclipsed anyone of them and never will!

WaterInYourBath said:

Good point

Maybe it's not Beyonce, It could be that husband of hers .

I would think he is insecure but instead he is so cocky and have that i'm better then you look that rubs off on her.

It's like he forgets does he really think he is getting girls cause of his looks (nas)

She's currently selling more albums than any of those people you named (combined) and you're devoting a lot more attention to her than any of them at the moment.

I AGREE WITH everything, and especially the bold

SoulAlive said:

That ain't even cute.

trueiopian said:

How is it degrading when {like said above} there are some black women with naturally blonde hair?

tamewar said:

That still doesn't answer my question.

KidaDynamite said:

Like the person said it's just so degrading

Those clothes are hideous and why is that little girl wearing high heeled shoes???

JackieBlue said:

That's what I'm wondering.

That's a 'HAT DAY' moment right there. Seriously, I think people are so critical of celebrities looks because they have loads of cash and rely a lot on their physical appearances to make their money. I realize everybody has a 'off-day', but not everybody can afford a personal trainer, stylist, and personal chef either, so I really can't feel sorry when ugly photos of famous people surface and they get made fun of for it. Now, if Bey worked at the post office separating the mail in the back looking like this it would be different. Sucks, but celebrities chose a line of work where image is extremely important and their privacy is going to be invaded...nice to see that every job has shitty points...makes life fair.

Okay...


You are trying so hard and it's making me laugh even harder.

SCNDLS said:

Thank You! Seriously, the first time I saw her DirectTV commercial I was like, 'Beyonce know she don't watch no damn DirectTV.'

Honestly, the main reason I dislike Beyonce isn't because she's over-exposed, sounds dumb as a bag of dog shit in interviews, or takes credit when she doesn't really deserve it. I dislike her because she allowed her father to dump two of her supposed best friends from the original DC line-up and than took his side and blamed them. I haven't been able to really like her since than because dumping on your friends (especially your best friends) is totally fucked and wrong regardless of whether someone is famous or not. The group was doing fine with the original four, but Daddy Knowles felt otherwise. That's why I went out and bought LeToya Luckett's debut album back in (which did really well if I remember correctly) and was surprised that she thanked Beyonce in her liner notes and said that, "I don't care what went on I love ya'll" (she mentioned Kelly and Latavia in that quote also). Beyonce has a very good voice and is a good performer, but she's far from what I would consider an icon...but that's just me.

estelle81 said:

She has a DirectTV commercial?

I'm starting to come around to Beyonce. Go figure.

She's just now learning how to sing.

I don't need to know what you are like as a person. If you are an entertainer, entertain--that's your job. She does that and I appreciate it. I appreciate that I don't know any of her problems, 'cause I have plenty of my own. Just get on stage and do what you do.

That being said, "Single Ladies" and "Diva" are really bad and it is annoying that they get so much radio play. But, I don't blame Beyonce for that. Not at all.

Timmy84 said:

Oh lord, yes she does.



I swear, they were playing it waay too much for a while there. I don't know which I hate more, Beyonce endorsing everything or the non-stop playing of Britney Spears' perfume ads. I'm at my breaking point with both of them and wish they would both have a Coke and a smile and sit the fuck down already. I can barely listen to the radio without hearing one of these two chick's songs (old and new) played at least once every 15 minutes. Maybe if radio stations put this much enthusiasm and adoration into endorsing more underground artists or artists with all around better musical talent than maybe the music industry wouldn't be as much in the shitter as it is now. Just sayin'.

estelle81 said:

Oh OK I remember seeing this now.

Timmy84 said:

I know right. Seriously, it's gone from being over-exposed to straight suffocation with possible attempts at mind control. It's ridiculous at this point. Honestly, when someone says, "If you don't like him/her, than don't watch/listen to them", I want to slap the shit out of that person. How the hell do you avoid someone who is always there? How the fuck does one accomplish this without having to live in a shack deep in the woods where there is no electricity or radio frequencies? Their commercials play randomly on every channel; photos of them are on/in every form of print; and the radio plays them non-stop. The only way to avoid them is to stop watching TV, avoid any form of print that contain pictures, and never listen to the radio. Since I like doing all of these things and these two ladies continue to want to play for every team than it's on like Donkey Kong. If I have to struggle to avoid seeing and hearing them and still can't get away, than best believe I'm going to talk shit about them. Any celebrity who continues to be a greedy, media whoring asshole is fair game for hateration, ridicule, and insults IMO. If they put this much effort into their actual crafts, the music would probably be waay better. Just my

This is true and he wasn't even the group's original manager. He came on
board with the group's original manager and eventually took over when the
group's original manager died. He is quite the asshole. I laughed when he
threatened a local news anchor for getting in his head about the solange
blowup on a news program. Letoya seems to be a real sweetheart and is the underdog. I support her also.

phunkdaddy said:

Damn, that's fucked up... no wonder...

phunkdaddy said:

They always make it out like he's been their manager from the jump. How he sacrificed his career to be their manager
