Thanks to Schutzie over at mtvU.com for this premiere of Beyonce’s “Video Phone Remx”. Beyonce shamelessly rips off style icon Rihanna’s much talked about hairdo. It looks better on Rihanna, but Bey is working it in this video. Rihanna might want to step her game up a little.

WTF!! Is that a semi-nice comment about Beyonce?? Has hell frozen over lol!!!
GAGA actually looks normal in that vid. Not really feelin it though, seen it all before. What happened to creativity?
What the hell is this??!?!?!
WHy do people keep this talentless “artist” on the air by buying her crap???
UGH!!!!!!
BTW Sandra Rose, so nice to FINALLY be a part of your family!!! Thank you for having me!!
YAh Sandra is playin nice I see…
The video is HAWT and B is killin it!
Is my new avi working anyone? I still see that white crying ugly baby!
I didn’t like the video. It seemed a knock-off of “Check Up On It” (a song that I like, btw)
Beyonce needs to take a break and re-evaluate the direction she wants her music to go. Right now she’s looking DESPERATE. At this rate, she will not be “icon” that she SO desperately wants to be. The coochie-poppin’ was somewhat tolerable while you were single, but I would think after Jay put a ring on it that you would keep those type of dances for Jay’s eyes only, but I digress.
Remember, i’m a
so I don’t want to be kicked out before I really got in. LOL
Just my two cents. Good night folks!
Does anyone have a new link? Im getting the white box.
She looks HOT!! I liked all the different looks, the dance routine with GaGa…pretty much everything. Her body is bananas!!
I guess she could have had a phone in the video at some point though lol
This song is WACK & the video is RAUCHY.
The video is HAWT! But B is definitely swagger jacking Rihanna with that short cropped blonde hair.
Video is alright. I like the different concepts of style Bey used like the black and white panty get up with all the bangles. Didn’t see the point of Lady Gaga, she looked kinda rough next to Beyonce.
She seems to have been inspired by Bettie Page also
And the vid is just too sexual for me…the blindfolded men, her popping T&A(as usual), and the symbolism..I read somewhere that the water guns represent penises and every time gaga or Beyonce shoot and the gun would squirt water thats representing ejaculation; the grinding of Beyonce on one of the large guns at 1 point in the video represents sexual intercourse.Very interesting and it makes the video make more sense to me anyway
I hate it. I love bey and Gaga but WTF? The song sucks for starters. And Bey was really sexual in this video. I know she usually has sexy videos but she usually keeps the sexual stuff to a minimum. She went all out for this one. And poor Gaga,
She looked so…I cant think of the word but she just didnt look right standing up there with Bey. Bottom line: This sh*t is awful….. I expected more from these two! Bey and Gaga You BOTH need to sit down in the naughty corner and think about what you’ve done.. 
I can’t get over the fact that Lady Gaga looks like a normal person in this video.
Hated It…thought this was fitting for reposting…SMH that girl doesn’t have a creative bone in her body…
Dear Beyoncé Giselle Knowles,
You are currently 28 years old (serious sideeye), it is time for you to:
Come out of the naked phase you’ve been going through, yes that means burning them god awful leotards.
Sing some dang gone songs that actually have meaning.
Purchase hooked on phonics, a talking, acting, and emotions coach and acquire your GED (if you don’t have it already).
Go have some baby camels with Camel toe, Camel, Jigga, Jiggaman, Hov, JayZ, Shawn Corey Carter, S.Dot, and retire for the next five years.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, by completing all of the above listed, I can then take you seriously,
Your Sister from another Mister,
Kcicero
Please and Thank You
Feel Free to sign your name to the letter, it will be sent off expeditiously (B that means sent very fast
)
i like the video. gaga seems a little uncomfortable though
Gaga is not cute. She really does look like a dude and well Beyonce doesn’t look her best in this video. She’s had better videos. I guess this was supposed to be artistic????? It wasn’t worth the wait if you ask me. But again, who am I

Sandra, are you changing the form of the board? This is a long open registration.
Im the words of “In Living Color”—Hated it! The video had too much going on. Also, when is Beyonce going to come out of this I’m a HOOD CHICK phase. I thought Lady Gaga looked nice and their dance scene could have been better. NEXT….To the LEFT…………..
***crickets***
***crickets***
*waves* hey attorneymom
@iscream who knows what Sandra is doing besides Sandra
sandra, thanks for the emoticons link. i also found out that, if you like one, you can right click and go to properties. it will tell you the correct code to use.
The intro was hot..She worked those boots. I’m shocked it was SO raunchy..but hey I guess anything to get us talking..lol
Ummm.. How do I change my aviator from the baby? Thanks!
Ya the vid and song is quite a snore.
**Can someone please please tell me how to change my avatar? TIA
@Missy, Good morning.
Sidebar: Is there an icon for I am back?
Hey AM *waving*
Good Morning
THE VIDEO IS SEXUAL, DUH, IS THE SONG NOT TALKING ABOUT HIM RECORDING HER IN DIFFERENT POSITIONS? I LIKE IT. HOW IS BEYONCE JACKING RIHANNA THOUGH? THE BANG IN THE FRONT? I DON’T GET IT.
DID ANYONE CATCH RIHANNA MINI CONCERT YESTERDAY?
Ummm I actually like the video….besides all the different types of guns. I didn’t think that was a necessary prop.
GaGa looked natural which was a first. The dance routine was cool. Some of the hairstyles look like the idea came from pinup calendars back in the day or something, idk.
Overall, it was okay…use of the green screen was definately in full force. Creativity wasn’t its finest in this flick.
TRY AGAIN!

OH YES, G’MORNING ALL!
i hope this is that last song she is releasing as a single.

I feel you but you know Bey….she might re-re-release her album and add a couple more songs. Her whole album has been played, damn near.
@Iscream and Missy, check my kids and I on Youtube. Type “Happy Birthday to Mr. Attorneymom”.

@Leesa
Oh Ok thanks!
its like the older she gets. the more clothes come off.
and the dances get raunchier. c’mon B, ur better than this.
@Sandra, someone suggested that you next live chat should be with the two sisters formerly of Xscape.
WOW…i guess they gaga didnt want gaga for her creativity…and the rest feel like i’ve seen it over and over and over and over and over again….looks like all beyonce videos
Now I understand why Lady Gaga wears those nets over her face….woof. Damn Sandra, are you the reason its so damn cold in Ga this morning? What the hell done happened to you?
I’m too through with these immature lyrics already! Lady Gaga, you can do better. Beyonce, please reinvent yourself, I mean that in the more sincerest manner.
Same routine and concept different video sheesh!!!!!!
Never liked the song - bey is trying to be hard & it’s not working. Why not try putting some clothes back on.
Ummm I don’t know how I feel about this video. It’s just way to much going on for me. I am happy to see Lady Gaga looking “normal” for once.
First of all, I totally agree with #18’s letter to Beyonce. Even Ray Charles can see that the first shot with the blindfold and the blond hair is an obvious bite off of Rihanna. I’m so sick of this chick (Beyonce) claiming to be “shy” when she is always half naked and girating like a damn washed up stripper!!! GaGa should have known better than to be colaberating with her. She only did the s**t so she could try to outshine her while biting her style. Believe me Beyonce considers GaGa competition and she is keeping her enemies close by pretending to be their hommies. GaGa always be on point so why was she looking like a HAM in this video and why was Bey all in the background on her verses?? Watch how Miss Bey slowly turns into Rihanna and Lady GaGa. You see how she tried to play buddies with Shakira. I usually don’t go hard on Bey cuz she can sing and dance but she has become way to extra and she scared to let somebody else shine. Her videos always suck and I’m tired of seeing her crotch. I’m done.
they got gaga looking plain jane and beyonce is well A CLASS ACT IN THE WORDS OF MIZZDALLAS!
@SugarPieHoneybunn
gaga looks a HAM in the video..ur so right! And that was the plan…
I would like to sign kcicero petition. I have NEVER been a Beyonce fan and do not understand the hype. Where is Tamia, Fantasia, JHud, Kelly Price, Deborah Cox, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu:pray:. I cannot take anymore nonsense “Shake your body” songs.
#58 YOU ARE SO RIGHT. IN EVERY ASPECT.
WHY DO ALL BEY’S VIDEO’S HAVE HER IN A BODYSUIT? THIS VIDEO SHOULD CONCLUDE THAT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ALBUM IS OVER. SHE HAD A GOOD RUN. NEXXXT~~~~~~>
I’m a B fan, but I really don’t like the video or song. I will give it to her though, she can really dance. I also think it’s time for B to take a break and let are fans miss her a bit.
I meant “Her fans”.

_____________________________________________
I like Bey, but as I watched this video a similar thought went through my head. We’ve seen this before Bey. The hip rocking, sultry come hether look as you air FLUCK is getting….as Birdofbeauty put it…DESPERATE-ish. I would just love to see something else. How about ballads. Now that he has put a ring on it…sing about how you are keeping it there.
They’re all fahion jackers.
I meant “Fashion”
Wow…that was 5:02 mins of my life I will never get back..whoo! All that gyrating and coochie poppin’ I thought I was at Magic City for a minute!
I’m disappointed that Lady Gaga agreed to do this. I like her for being so creative and “out there”.
You aint neva lied.
i actually like the video. the song is still crap. as much as i love lady gaga she didn’t make the song any better. i wish they would have let the gaga do her own thing . she’s weird but that’s what i like about her. she was so plain in this video.
i agree with whomever said that this should be the last song released off the cd. beyawnce needs to move on from sasha fierce.
@AM
I saw the vid and it is really cute……..and your references to kid n play,and Derwin and Malik from the game were priceless…..
Any who happy belated b-day to Mr.AM
I am sooooooo tired of Bey and her bootie poppin… I guess that’s why I don’t listen to her music anymore… Can’t wait for the new AKeys cd
**waving** @ Miss Daisy.
Thanks, Missy. My sons and I are addicted to The Game.
Bey a dancer….never, lol but she can p*$$@ with the best of them…
@ Daisy did you see dancing with the stars? I forgot to ask last night, Mya K-I-L-L-E-D it, now that is what I call a dancer, have always been a fan of hers too!
KC mya better win or i am gonna be mad.
@ Licia
that girl is BAD, some people are just born to dance…
@AM
I got my cousin and my mom addicted to it.

I must be in pure hater form today because I am so awaiting the person to come out and destroy her career. Remember how 50 cent destroyed Ja Rules career within the blink of an eye. Well, I want some chick to come out of nowhere & take her crown(not rihanna) and for all those she has screwed over to come clean and stop beating around the bush when asked ?’s such a Keri Hilson,Letoya, Kelly & all the former members of DC. I want someone to put her phony but on the carpet. Will someone please release the tape of the real BEYONCE or even a tell all book with real information
I am so sick of her phony image!!!!!!!!!!!!! This hooker aint shy. Wouldn’t be surprised if she pulled an Alicia Keys
I LIKED THE VIDEO!!! Lady Gaga is so pretty and Bey can dance..i’m not too hot about the lyrics tho it’s headed in the rated “R” direction.:hump:
That video, and let me say again VIDEO, was on point, and Gaga was great! Dont take this to heart cause we got some freaks on here that do the same with their man while talking on the “VIDEOPHONE”. This is just an art form and they worked it, I wish they would’ve danced more though.. Beyonce looks good and them getups and her makeup is on point.. Nice and I dont even like the song!
Calling Miss Sandra Rose!! Please quit playin with us!! We want you to tear this video apart. We know you didn’t mean it when you said Bey was bringing it. You got my hopes all up but I see that you were just using that good ole sarcasm lol!! Evidentally Mrs. Carter is in heat. Jay better get his wife (after he take care of his crabs) because with a cooch that hot, I know the bodyguard is smashing. Dreadfull!
umm don’t like it…
Hi, I’m a newbie!
Excited to finally be able to comment instead of just reading…Big thanks to Sandra for opening up the registration!!
Mother of three boys, wife of 16yrs(whew), not a kool-aid drinker,:koolaid3: but opened minded enough to consider and respect others’ opionins…sometimes…lol
KC yes I saw Mya SLAY everybody on dancing with the stars! Yes that is a real dancer right there! As the resident dancer I
Myas dancing skills 
MISSMIAMI, YOU MAY HAVE A LONG WAIT………..SHE’S A HEELUVA PERFORMER, AND SINGER. SHE HAS A GREAT IMAGE WITHIN THE INDUSTRY, THEY ALL SING HER PRAISES, AS WELL AS HER WORK ETHIC. IF SHE IS A BIYATCH, MAYBE ONLY HER FAMILY KNOWS OF IT.
LADY GAGA CHOSE HER OWN WARDROBE, SHE SAID SHE WANTED TO PAY HOMAGE TO BEYONCE, BE BEYONCE. THAT IS WHY SHE IS NOT HER USUAL CRAZY LOOKING OVER THE TOP LOOKING SELF.
Hello to all ole heads and fellow newcomers.
The video isn’t that bad. I think she does all of these for the men out there. She has a large gay male following who love her costumes and stage persona. And a lot of straight men don’t like her music but like her videos and think she is sexy.
I’ve been reading this blog for years so I’m happy I can finally comment!
I like some of the looks she had but too sexual for my taste. She’s going down the Mariah Carey path already I see.
Love love love B.
THAT BIATCH KILLED THAT SHIAT!!!!!!!!
I AM IN LOVE XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXXOXOO!!!!!!!
Bey let yall have it!!!!!!!!!LMAO! Go girl, Im impressed with Lady Gaga’s movement!!!!
OKAY DIDN’T READ ANY COMMENTS-HAD TO PUT MY IMMEDIATE REACTION THE TO VID
BUT YALL NICCUS BETTA FALL BACK ON BEY CAUSE SHE DAMN SURE KILLED THAT SHIAT RIGHT THERE
AND LET ME SCHOOL SOME OF YOU YOUNGINS-IT’S OKAY TO LET YOUR FREAK LOOSE WHEN YOU’RE MARRIED-BECAUSE THE WHOLE ENTICEMENT IS NICCAS KNOW SHE MARRIED AND THEY CAN ONLY FANTASIZE ABOUT GETTING WITH HER-HOLLA
SHE AINT EVEN IN THEIR REACH OR RUNNING IN THE SAME CIRCLE FOR A NICCA TO EVEN HOLLA AT HER
SHE CAN GET BUCK AZZ WILD FREELY WITHOUT HARRASSMENT
YEP I’M STANNING-I GOTTA REASON TO THIS BIATCH DELIVERS EVERY TIME
Thanks Sandra for letting me in. Has anyone noticed how scary this ish is? First, open registration then, hot shots of Ciara’s legs, now a good post about Beyonce…Would the real Sandra Rose please stand up!
I’m happy either way! Just don’t go all Hollywood on us. -Luvs the positive energy
RING THE ALARM!
Clearly Bey is making videos for the gay men. Every dance move in this video I have seen Gay men do at the ballroom.
Bey please retire for a few years. We need to miss you!!!
BEYONCE FANS AREN’T TIRED OF SEEING HER, SO SPEAKING FOR THE FANS KEEP IT COMING BEY
YOU AINT PUTTING SHIAT OUT FOR THEM NO HOW-DON’T LIKE HER SHIAT
IT’S AS SIMPLE AS TURNING THE CHANNEL OR SWITCHING THE TV OFF-PROBLEM SOLVED
Too much flesh showing and crotch girating for me to sit through, but some people love it, I guess…
I’ve been reading this blog for so many years and it’s so nice to be able to comment. Thanks Sandra!
This video…wow. I watched it at work and I felt like I was watching some illicit porn. There was so much grinding going on and I was jumping every time I heard footsteps coming! I like the concept and the colours, but way too sexual. Also, I always hated this song so the video doesn’t save it for me.
Gaga without all the extra-ness looks plain to me, especially besides Beyonce. Po thing.
Something is missing.. I expected so much more.. Oh well..
please provide me with a NEW concept. i don’t have issues with beyonce’, but she’s a YAWNFEST! enough of the booshika videos, songs, etc. do something else, and PLEASE don’t create any “ava marie” type of CD either. just go away for a couple of years..
Hello everybody! Thanks for finally opening registration, Sandra! Now to the post, I thought video was good! No complaints from me, at least not this time!
SAD THING IS IF THE ARTIST WAS A MALE AND FEATURED LADIES DOING THE SAME THING-YALL WOULD BE DANCING IN FRONT OF YOUR TV’S IN THE LIVING ROOM TRYING TO ENTICE YOUR MAN
THE VIDEO CAN BE EXPLICIT OR SEXUAL-SHE GROWN AINT SHE/YALL GROWN TOO RIGHT?
TOO EXPLICIT/SEXUAL YADA,YADA WHATEVA-NOWADAYS WHAT VIDEO ISN’T IT’S A PROBLEM BECAUSE IT’S BEYONCE
Whoa, Sandra’s said two nice things about Beyonce in one week. What is the world coming too? LOL!
I LOVED the video. I think it was HAWT! I like it a WHOLE lot better than Single Ladies and Ego.
The album was great to me, well, the first disc was great and some of the songs on the second disc that I felt should have been on the first disc, like Scared of Lonely.
I think that after this album, she’s gonna calm her image down. She’s just getting it all out her system, being risque. Who knows, the next album might be Vanessa Williams-ish.
I am not a Bey FAN! But the video was cool. I liked Lady Ga Ga’s part. A bit of the Ri Ri feel but everybody is biting everybody. I guess they say if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. LOL
“Illuminati want my mind, soul and my body” and it looks like they got it. It’s so blatant.
and I’m tired of artists re-releasing their albums.
By the way…Hey, I’m new here!
Howdy yall, thanks Sandra I love your site!
Video is cute, same ole same ole but I like it
RIHANNA’S ALBUM COVER IS SEXUALLY EXPLICIT AS WELL-BUT OH YEAH SHE GETS A PASS, CAUSE THAT’S ALL SHE HAS TO OFFER ANY HOW
Beyonce always looks like a damn skank. That is all.
This is a test
[…] credit to The Life Files. Video SR. Story MTV News, Digital Media […]
Why she gotta be a SKANK because she’s dancing raunchy in HER video? All these damn prudes in here be the FIRST ones droppin their panties for the first stiff P@nis they come across.
Spare me with the childish hypocrisy. Bey, you’re a grown ass woman. DO YOU.
If you don’t like it, don’t watch. Don’t be MAD your man would rather watch HER than YOU. Get like her!!!
That is all……..
The video stinks LOL! What the hell was she thinking?? Lady Gaga cannot be on everything.
Beyonce needs to stop stealing her style from trannys. Good Lord girl this video is a hot mess plus it gave me a dang headache. Nice Try though Honey Child Boo. LOL
That was nothing but bull**** really.:yawn:
@ Island Breeze: Illuminati all the way. I agree.
The video is alright but she wasnt doing anything besides popping her butt, and stealing shots from gaga. Like darn you have 4 mins to yourself let her have camera time lol. She stole to riri hair style and cici dance. SMDH
On the last post i didnt mean dance I meant the construction costum with the glasses
HATERS NEED NOT APPLY-CAUSE SHE ALREADY HAS PLENTY
AND THE REASON FOR THAT CAUSE YALL STAY CRITIQUING BEY’S EVERY MOVE& CLAIMING SHE AINT ALL THAT
WELL HER FANS, SOLD OUT CONCERTS, RECORD SALES, BEG TO DIFFER-WHAT YALL CONSIDER NOT GOOD REALLY DON’T COUNT ANY HOW CAUSE NONE OF YOU ARE IN A POSITION TO STOP OR AFFECT HER SUCCESS! AND THAT’S USUALLY WHAT MAKES YOU A HATER-SOMEONE WHO DISCREDITS SOMEONE ELSE’S SUCCESS ESPECIALLY WHEN THEIR OWN DOESN’T MEASURE UP TO THE PERSON THEY’RE DISCUSSING-LOL
@ INTENSE:
PREACH MAMA!!
BTW, I’m new here! Love your site Sandra.. Whether I agree or disagree with you, I am ALWAYS entertained.
Why do guys hate B so much?? I mean if you are tired of seeing her don’t look/listen. What’s the point of dogging some one so bad? For every one person that hates her there are a thousand to that one that love her. It’s evidence to her concert and album sells and that goes for any artist not just B. for the ones who are fixing to call me a stan
The same with J. You called him old, camel face, he needs to sit down, but yet you have Puffy, Dr. Dre, Snoop, Cube, and scar face, etc. All of those artist are in the same age bracket and still making albums, but nobody is saying they are too hold and needs to sit down. That’s very hypocritical.
Nice video! I liked it.
hmmm, not really feeling that video…. nothing special just looked random and Gaga didn’t seem like herself
b needs to go somewhere and let the yungins like rihanna do whatever she was trying to do. like look sexy?
ummmmm…b’s too old for this. grow up. she looked like a whore.
Everyone is sooo right about this. I was thinking also that Bey is also married and this video was too raunchy for her with the gyrating in front of strange men and being just about naked? I was very surprised. Camel face is cool with that?
Beyonce is hot as fire in this video.
