That sex sells.
I mean why wouldn't it? Would you want to buy something marketed by an unattractive person? No. You want something marketed by a "beautiful" person because you want to be beautiful just like them. You want people to stop and notice you just like you stopped and notice this attractive person who was trying to sell you something.
I get it. I accept it.
But uhmmmm...Bey....this travesty of a video you call Video Phone...you shoulda pumped your brakes.
Now...
I love Beyonce...even going back to the days before Beyonce and dem (3 members), Destiny's Child (members...2 of which were new faces)...going allllllll the way back to Destiny Child with the 4 originial members...I been riding for her.....
BUT
I don't know what got into her (or the director) for this video concept...there were so many things that could be done! And what do we get? Another video with a white background and Mrs. Shawn C Carter thrusting her coochie at the camera.
Fellas, I know you like that type of PG-13 porn but I for one am not impressed.
I SOOOOOO figured that the video would consist of shots of Beyonce maybe rolling around in a bed, putting on a sexy strip tease for her man or something as viewed on...duh! A VIDEO PHONE!
Call me crazy! I remember when videos used to actually fall in line with the lyrics of the song...guess I'm old *shrugs*
I kind of look at Beyonce right now as those girls on Twitter/Facebook who post thousands upon thousands of pictures of themselves...you're cute...you're hot...okay...we get it, next subject please?
And can we please stop with the dang blasted dance breaks? I mean seriously, you're not a classically trained dancer, nothing that you're doing is going to have me in awe and wanting to dance around the mirror doing your moves...I do that shit on a regular in the club.
Booty shake...check
Booty bounce....check
Mock lap dance....check
Titty shake....check
Show me something new please.
And if Kanye gets up at the next VMA's to proclaim that this was the best video of the year...I'm hitting him in the head with a Hennessey bottle....and then doing his shrug.
*end rant*
OH!
...and the moaning at the end...Beyonce, Beyonce, Beyonce...Girl 6 you are not, cut that shit out...ALL the way out.
*end rant for real*

agree
i agree too. videos use to be something to talk about. =[
That's why as much shit as folk talk about Kanye, his videos are ILL!And the game is so lacking that.
i agree as well. although i'm young (21y/o), i like the older stuff. this new generation is not where it's at. sex is basically everything and everywhere nowadays, and people wonder why their kids are being the way they are now. they want to be like all celebrities...
i agree 100%... but ppl who consider themselves fans say that this is not Beyonce... its Sasha Fierce. WTF!??! cmon son! i think BEY and dem directors dem need to rethink treatments for any upcoming videos cuz this shit is not not.
