    What happened to that cool board you found of like minded fools? Did they figure out how stupid you were and shun you? It must be tough to keep finding out, no matter how deeply you slum, that you're never going to be seen as anything but a piece of shit.

    Beyonce's show was fine; I liked the surprise Destiny's Child reunion.

    I thought Alicia Keys' take on the Star-Spangled Banner was very well done, very classy. I don't like it when that song is "over-sung" or jazzed up too much.

    I try to not listen to her sing, but she is beautiful.

    It boils my ass when it's oversung or jazzed up too much. It's the National Anthem, not a pop anthem. Sing it with dignity.

    Did she even really sing in the half time show? The whole thing looked fake as far as I could see. Here is what it reminded me of, but this was definitely a better band. B,b..b,b..Baby don't forget my numbah!

    I guessed Destiny's Child a mile away. They're making a new album or something and they put out a new single.

    Even though I like alot of Pop, I'm not into Beyonce. That doesn't mean she doesn't have phenomenal talent as a singer and dancer. That Single Ladies video deserved every bit of hype it got.

    Look, Beyonce Knowles is a great singer, no doubt about it, but as a performer, she is simply not in the same league as Freddie Mercury. The man had at most of the TV watching free world eating out of his hand live & via satellite...

    I actually don't think we'll ever see a performance like that again in my lifetime. When you've got folks clapping along on two continents, that, is showmanship.

    This. I thought she had a decent enough voice, but the songs she was singing were crap. It was, however, nice to see a full figured woman on stage for a change. I've never found the anorexic look to be that attractive.

    :wtf:

    What the fuck?

    How does this have anything to do with the thread topic?

    Did you just have a stroke? Or are you pitching a little tantrum because something mean has been said about Black Jesus?

    Whichever it is, you've shown your hand and made it clear that I truly upset you.

    I suggest you take a break and put some things in perspective. A forum full of people you don't really know shouldn't cause you this much nerd rage.

    So, what do you think of Beyonce?

    Well this isn't the most exciting observation about Beyonce ... but one thing you can count on, her lyrics are clean enough to blast in the car with kids of any age. And tweeners love her.
