Beyonce Is Really Deep
The basement baby's lesser known older sister has a video out for "If I Were A Boy." I know. Isn't that sweet? Basement baby's sister is trying to have a singing career. It's cute and kind of endearing.
The video is some dramatic shit. The beginning looks like a student film version of the old CK Be commercials. Edgy, edgy. The rest is Beyonce bringing out the pure emotion. About 3:30 into it, everything stops and Beyonce proves what a phenomenal actress she is in a dramatic scene between her male co-star. It's like watching two snails try to dance. You know Daddy Knowles is going to submit this shit for Oscar consideration.
YouTube has been pulling this shit like mad and throwing it in the basement with Solange, so click here if the video above doesn't work.

Stupid song, stupid video.
Someone needs to tell Beyond-say that women already ARE policewomen, it's not a dream!

I'm taking over!
I'm light skinned, but my mom has always raised me to identify as black and I'm proud of it. I get so sick of men tryin to speak spanish to me and asking if I'm Puerto Rican when I know I'm black. The worst part is when I walk by dark skinned girls and they scowl at me. Even if I smile and even say hi, they still act mean towards me. I don't understand it. My brothers and sister are all from the same mother and father, but we're all different colors. My brother is my twin except he is dark skinned, but people think we're boyfriend and girlfriend, and that pisses off the dark skinned girls even more. Why can't people just be cool with each other? It's so stupid to let something trivial like skin color affect black relations. I'm so sick of it! Sorry about the rant. Love the video, hate the acting.
I like this song a lot better than her If I Had A Peen song lol! She may be annoying, but the bitch can dance. How come both videos are in black and white? Unlike the Lady of Cheetos, Beyonce has rhythm. All you haters are jealous. Beyonce is beautiful and sexy.
Eh, it's okay! Her acting was ATROCIOUS!!!! But the concept was cool!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Sit yo ass down!
The guys in the video are really hot. The one that played the cop and the boyfriend, too
I was hoping to hate the song and video, but I must admit I like them both.
-------------------------------------------------
*sigh* I'm starting to like the song a tiny bit and the video is well done. Go Bee...
Didn't PRINCE do it better 20 years ago when he wrote/sang: IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND? - which BTW was later covered by TLC in the 90s? That said, I like this song and dig that Beyonce is trying to "stretch" her talent. If she didn't get the Oscar for Dreamgirls, maybe she'll get it for this?!
I actually REALLY like the song and B is amazing in it... i say give her an oscar shes very professional and talented !haha.. well joking about the oscar part .. Ive never been a huge fan but shes growing on me and i think shes in it for the long run .. keep bringing us good entertainment Solanges sister!! ;)

Don't know where the raggedy asses and crazies will go (we have, in a few short blocks, the highest percentage of people with mental illnesses in the entire city, according to a report).
I've only ever had any trouble with one - and that was because I'm overly sensitive. A really huge, ugly tranny told me that I was uglier than him. It's okay, you can laugh.

I'm NOT being sarcastic at all when I ask this: what is a good way to ask without being offensive? Seriously.
And I can't speak for other people, but if I'm curious, it's because I find someone interesting or beautiful and I want to know more about them. It's not to pigeon-hole them or get into their minds. I'm sure there are people who are rude or racist or snotty, but not everyone is. Maybe they just think you have a cool look!
LOL, Mustang Sally!
I grew up in this crazy assed town...I've met my fair share of crazies. There's this huge lady who is very sweet when she takes her medication but when she doesn't she threatens to eat the children. I am proud to say my daughter has grown up with this monstrosity and knows to give her a wide berth (and I only mention it cuz it came up the other day when she saw her...)...
Whoa nelly - rambly...ANYHOO!
I dunno. I was at PS Kensington 2 weeks ago and the Punks (one of those guys asked to have sex with me once - just like that: "Hey - you wanna fuck sometime?"); they put police tape all around the bank machine and hung out there drinking beer. I like to think we still have hope:)

Take some of that insight and learn how to mind your own business. Especailly since you've been registered for less than a week. If you were smart as you thought, you would know not to judge before you knew all the facts, so spare me the bullshit.
@TITS
Your money is safe.
The post was very vitriolic. No idea what it was regarding (something you had said). After the poster questioned why you use the name TITS, she (I presume) went crazily rude and said that you probably have saggy tits that hang down to your knees. O-K-A-Y, you nutbar!!
By the way, if you do, it's okay with me. :)

I'm a very close friend of Jean's (and I'm a lying bitch :) ) and he hasn't lost his ability to run up the stairs or throttle a much younger person.

Kmarket or Ctown? My money is on the latter.
hah! gotcha. ask jean to bring some curds, i'm peckish.
Aw who doesn't like tits? They're such lovely little birds.
Missed that, was it just vitriol or funny? I suspect the former. I simply don't read a number of the socially challenged that post here.

id watch that vieeo again & again just to look at the male cop she cheats with. geeeeesh. too much hot!

sorry so late in responding but I loved your insight. I do agree that blended folks are the most beautiful. I guess I wouldn't mind if you asked politely, but just like you said, it is mostly the white folks who are trying to get into the mind of us "ethnic" people. My girlfriend and I just thought it was the weirdest thing. And I guess I am a little hypocritical because if a mixed person asked me, I wouldn't mind, and I do love to find out myself what people are mixed with. I guess it is all just in the way you ask.
BEYONCE GO AWAY! HOW MANY TIMES HAS JAY-Z CHEATED ON YOU? BECAUSE LATELY ALL YOU SEEM TO SING ABOUT IS HOW YOU'RE SO TORTURED BY YOUR CHEATING MAN. YOU CAN'T ACT, CAN'T DANCE, CAN'T SING. YOU'VE OVERSATURATED YOURSELF IN THE MEDIA SO MUCH THAT PEOPLE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOU. CIARA DID THIS SHIT BETTER, SAME WITH RIHANNA. GO CHILL ON A DESERTED ISLAND WITH YOUR LACEFRONTS FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND THEN MAYBE COME BACK....UGGGGGHHHHH MY EARS OR EYES CAN'T STOMACH YOUR FAKE CHUNKY ASS ANYMORE!

My dear lady,
This is not a school yard where personal barbs, insults and petty bullying will go over well.
Go outside, read a novel - a classic, contemplate your place in the universe, do something for others. Do these things and you will start to feel really good about yourself and have less need to attack and insult. You will also be more attractive to those around you.
Everyone loves a happy friendly kind person. Would you rather be around a griping sourpuss or a happy kind generous soul?
If you have read this far and doubt the veracity of my words - examine how often you are replied to, then examine how often people like Mrs Kravitz are replied to and you will see the truth of my words.
Good day to you.
i thought it was a really good video it makes me like the song a lot more.

Beyonce's turning into R Kelly? WTF is with the story bullshit. UGH. Don't try this now, "B", When all you usually do is shake your fat ass for the camera. You can't be Shakey Shakey Ass & Deep at the same time.

You're right. I remember when I was in first or second grade I brought the attendance cards to the principal's office, and I looked at my friend's card and it said she was white. But she was Indian, so it didn't make sense to me.
I think Middle Eastern and Indian people are classified as Caucasian on censuses (censi?); or at least they were. By the time I was in high school, Indian people were part of the Asian category on standardized test while Middle Eastern people were still Caucasian. That makes even less sense to me.

I'm correct her mother's maiden name is Biyonce, that doesn't sound french to you?? And what I said isn't racist, it's an honest observation. If you look at 'african-american' women that are put up on the beauty pedestal they are probably at least a quarter white. I'm not saying I agree with it or that it's right, just saying its a fact of life. Get over it. It's why Obama is successful ; )
I think you are right. It's not a racist statement, it's a fact. If you are light, bright, and damn near white it is considered beautiful, not in everyone eyes, but in some. Even black people falls in this catergory.
Example- Beyonce's nephew is a troll to me However, because his skin is light, eyes are blue and his hair is curly there are alot of people that thinks he is gorgeous.
I am a proud African American all day long and everytime I step out of the house, people compliment me (even when I know I look like shit). I actually had a white man come up to me and said I was one of the most beautiful black woman he has laid eyes on.
No Read, No Shade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know if this has been settled yet, but Arabs are Caucasians- as in from the Caucus Mountains north west of India. That is the origin of the word. It's not about white skin. It's about features.
And this song is pretty- y'all stop hatin.' Beyonce may be ditzy and a tool of her parents, but she writes/produces a lot of her stuff and she's a great singer. The little one is good too, but she seems too arrogant already. She's the one trying to be deep all the time. I mean, I like her uniqueness, but she tries too hard with that smug look on her face. Whatever. I wouldn't mind being as talented as either one.

TEA - is that because I said I'm whiter than white so that makes me English from England? J/K Never touch the stuff. Sure, I'd love to meet you, sometime - long as you're not too cool to sit with someone who's old enough to be your mother. :)

I don't get this crap and it drives me nuts (not a long ride). I'm as white as white can be and I don't give a damn what colour or blend another person is. What the hell is the difference?
I really don't understand why what is so irrelevent about a person's value (and I'm not talking money) can cause such virulent hatred on this blog. I wasn't going to write anything but the whole thing is nauseating and really sad.
(If I ever run into angel_i, however, I will ask if I can feel her hair. That's a joke, people, which refers back to an earlier thread - just to show you that I have been a lurker for a while. I can't even imagine anyone having the gall to do that, hon, so you're safe from me, angel.) :)

I was gonna suggest that. I was, really. Okay I was gonna suggest a stripper-gram but it's the thought that counts, right?
I might add that if you can swing it, take the load off her hands and get the visa card AND some balloons or birthday makings if possible. It's a one time thing on your part and it'll free up whatever meager funds she has left. She'll remember it forever, it'll make you feel good and it'll give you a boatload of good karma.
Yeah I believe in karma, wanna make something of it?

*******************************************
I always hear about these things but my experiences are SO different. Everybody was all mixed up where I came from. When I was young I was the only one mixed but people in my school came from Japan, Italy, Pakistan, Persia, Trinidad, Jamaica, China, Korea, Greece...to name a few....most were first or second generation Canadians. Asking about a person's culture is almost a must where I'm at. It must be weird to have a split that's all Black and White. What about the other people? LOL

Some are clueless yet sincere, some are just jerks. But that's how life is, ain't it?) I know from my experience it's just because of beauty, it's similar to meeting a beautiful woman and wondering what her mother looks like. I've thought about how best to approach the subject politely without offending the person (i.e. "where are you from?" or "what's your heritage?") and I've concluded there's no easy way to ask the question. I end up sitting there frustrated as hell thinking "damn you're fucking beautiful who made you is there a possibility I can join in and make some more or at least practice?"
I know one thing for sure, "blended" folks are among the most gorgeous people on the planet. It's interesting that somebody from say, South America has the same beautifully smooth skin tone as somebody from the States or Africa or Europe if they're mixed. Makes me wonder if the true evolution of mankind is when we mix with each other and produce generations of blended people.
But then again I'm horny most of the time too.
Word!
Bella Diva,
You know I am not the type to back down from a fight, but honestly I don’t give a damn about these bitches.
My sister runs and after school program, two days ago one of her students, this beautiful little 7 year old girl passed away. Apparently she had been sick since she was born. It really shook my sister up. There are so much more important things going on in life than some internet beef.
I’m young; I’m in my last year of college. Some of these women claim to be grown women with husbands and children. Yet even I have enough common sense to know that it is not right to randomly attack people for no reason. It’s fucking pathetic. I didn’t come on dlisted to find virtual best friends and bond over criticizing other people’s comments or spelling. So if they have time for that let them.
