Several times responding to my posts.<br />Cute how you try to turn things around. I am guessing you are a buddy of Arthur. If not, you ought to be. You share so much. Your love of stanning for Beyonce as well as a lack of comprehension of the written word.<br />( I'd even hazard a guess that you are the friend he asked about my writing ;-D)<br />My dismissal of Beyonce was in no uncertain terms a statement of personal taste. Nowhere do I claim anything else.<br /><br />''whilst you contemplate how to amend your ways'' hahahahahaha funny dude!

I am no stan, i love Beyonce, however i am mature and objective enough to recognize her faults whilst appreciating the greatness of other artists. Someone disagreeing with your poorly argued assertions regarding Beyonce does not make someone a stan. That is just your way of dismissing anyone who highlights your bs. <br /><br /><br />You can hate Beyonce all you want as you clearly revel in doing so, jumping from post to post to eagerly spread your uninformed perspective. But please be the grown up you try to present yourself as and learn some objectivity. <br /><br /><br />You admit that you know little of her work and yet you continue to think you can credibly dismiss her entire career and contributions as an artist. That is bias to the extremes and makes your own contributions to any debate about her quite useless, redundant even :)<br /><br /><br />You are marginally more intelligent than the average stan, which works in your favor but a stan you remain, however you persevere to present yourself. <br /><br /><br />Whilst you contemplate how to amend your ways, take a pick from one of several seats _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/Scoopznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-50029105191759266802013-04-15T07:17:51.650+01:002013-04-15T07:17:51.650+01:00And was utterly forgetable.

I now have seen Beyonce's Superbowl performance, her Glastonbury performance and several of her most famous videos...I am still thoroughly unimpressed with her dancing and her shows in general as well as her vocal tone and music. The only thing vaguely interesting is her technical abilty. All in all to me she is a sublimely uninteresting artist.Opie Everhttp://www.facebook.com/opie.evernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-80082519024431187272013-04-15T01:45:53.287+01:002013-04-15T01:45:53.287+01:00I doubt very much you are sufficiently familiar wi...I doubt very much you are sufficiently familiar with anything but the most famous of Beyonce's choreography which explains the fact that you overlooked the numerous new steps merged with her staple choreography, none of which featured in Glastonbury. Perhaps more research into your chosen topic of discussion would aid in you being both informed and objective. Just a tip. Admittedly the show lacked the spectacle of Madonnas show, but then that's because that spectacle, the set pieces and army of support acts that were popular at the time were required as a crutch for Madonnas awkward dancing, lacking vocals and attempt to achieve chart success. Beyonce kept it simple and gave us just great (albeit largely familiar) choreography and great vocals and stage presence. And she didnt stumble awkwardly off of a bench mid performance :)Scoopznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-42277440356511818252013-02-14T23:56:21.650+00:002013-02-14T23:56:21.650+00:00Yeah, it was a great opportunity for me :) I can&#...Yeah, it was a great opportunity for me :) I can't really say how well it translated over TV because everything gives me chills watching it back, especially the entrance.

As long as Gaga breathes, Beyonce sits- growling and doing a tantrum composed of the African Stomp- at number two.<br /><br />And that's strictly in the States.

Like Sarah Connor and Regine Velasquez, who are both immensely popular in their respective homelands, but are relatively unknown overseas.Reiko Kanakinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-3232827936145661092013-02-10T22:32:07.852+00:002013-02-10T22:32:07.852+00:00LOL Opie... comparing Beyonce to showgirls?

A truly good half time show would take that into consideration.<br /><br />As for facebook and twitter likes. We already know that the majority of her youtube likes were fake. They were bought.<br /> Do you really expect me to believe facebook and twitter numbers to be accurate reprentations of the number of fans she has? Aside from the aforementioned fact that the superbowl always attracts around a 100 million viewers. Logic as well as fact say these do not all happen to also be all of Beyonce's fans. They are in fact...football fans. Mostly of the two teams making it to the Superbowl. To assume even 50 milion football fans are Beyonce fans is illogical and likely incorrect.Opie Everhttp://www.facebook.com/opie.evernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-40021420937162716012013-02-10T06:02:01.010+00:002013-02-10T06:02:01.010+00:00Yes, a fan defending Beyonce supposed amazing achi...Yes, a fan defending Beyonce supposed amazing achievements would be much better off bringing up her vocal technique.

Beyonce does have the ability to pick up dance moves very quickly, but the thing is I can pick up her dance moves in 10 minutes...she does nothing overly difficult. <br /><br /><br />I remember, when me and my friends choreographed Beyonce's song "Love on Top" last year....we based it off the original but there was not enough ump to it so we had to spruce it up.... <br /><br />In my opinion, her best dancing was in her music video "Get me bodied"...her worst was in "Diva" which was this horrible hip-hop/ pop influenced thing that I simply found atrocious. Especially that whole pop thing she did at the end... <br /><br /><br />For her dancing in "Run the World" it started off good and unique, but it got very sloppy and thrown together closer to the middle when she was wearing the yellow leotard. I'm sure she could have thought of something better than that little side hip thrust thing. <br /><br />But I'm a fan of her for her vocal technique not her dancing. As someone who's been dancing for the past 16 years, I think I can say that Beyonce's dancing needs an overhaul.....Black Robinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-32179929980859979502013-02-10T05:46:00.849+00:002013-02-10T05:46:00.849+00:00Dude, between 1.41 and 2.15 not a single step is d...Dude, between 1.41 and 2.15 not a single step is done other than her crawling inbetween the guy's legs. I am left still wondering what, if not that wide legged stomping, is that African step???<br /> <br />And by her own statements, she doesn't ''pick up'' that dancing. She practices ''till her feet bleed''. A claim sort of belying your claims regarding the supposed ease with wich this dancing is coming to her ( and which still does not go to the quality of that dancing)<br /><br />I saw no intricate footwork in 'single ladies'<br /> <br />You really ought to study those dancers I just linked to and learn what intricate footwork means. :-)Opie Everhttp://www.facebook.com/opie.evernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-65638895136323404502013-02-10T05:17:12.879+00:002013-02-10T05:17:12.879+00:00What is a better indicator of her fanbase than the...What is a better indicator of her fanbase than the amount of followers she has on social media sites? 42 million likes on facebook and 7 million followers on twitter (she's notorious for never tweeting by the way) indicates that more or less 50 million people watching her were her genuine fans. <br />To counter than second point, Madonna I feel appeals to a more favorable audience when it comes to this. Many of her fans let's face it are 40+ years old. Considering her genre (Dance pop) she has more of a worldwide appeal as well. Beyonce on the other hand appeals mostly to teenagers, and considering she's an r&b pop artist, her music is not as marketable worldwide. <br />And darn :/ how upsetting.arthurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-12851422917437211332013-02-10T05:08:18.383+00:002013-02-10T05:08:18.383+00:00My counter is that it's a difficult step to pi...My counter is that it's a difficult step to pick up. If you want more examples of difficult choreography she picked up, look at "Sweet Dreams" and "Single Ladies". Both were very acclaimed in the dancing world (as well as the African Step). <br /><br />And the African Step can be found about 2 minutes in this video<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBmMU_iwe6Uarthurnoreply@blogger.com
