Beyonce premiered the video for ‘Upgrade U’ on 106 & Park today. Directed by hip hop video director Melina, this joint is pretty hot – maybe hotter than the other one with Shakira might I add.
Check out Bee’s second video, ‘Beautiful Liar’ with Shakira after cut.


I don’t give a damn about who jacked who’s style. When she first came out with DC. I said that she would eventually be an icon and she is well on her way. Beyonce is talent over beauty so it is what it is….If you don’t like her thats fine, but damn, what’s not to like other than seeing her face everytime you turn on the tv or the radio.

Exactly! all of these RNB and HIP HOP artists jacked the hell out of James Brown, from musical riffs and beats to dance style.
Please.
YALL GET ON MY NERVES!!!! IN THIS INDUSTRY SOMEONE IS ALWAYS INSPIRED BY SOMEONE ELSE LIKE
JAMES BROWN – MICHEAL JACKSON
MICHEAL JACKSON – USHER
CIARA – JANET JACKSON
DIANA ROSS – BEYONCE(NOT 100% ON THAT ONE)
AND THE LIST GOES ON. I LOVE THE VIDEO. THEY’RE HOT!!! AND SOME OF YALL TRY SO HARD TO FIND SOMETHING WRONG THESE ARTIST IT’S A SHAME! JUST ENJOY THE MUSIC FOR GOODNESS SAKE AND STOP TRYING TO CRITIQUE ARTIST EVERY MOVE!!!!
OMG!!! If yall noticed this post is the most popular one of all. I’m lovin the attention yall haters givin to Beyonce. now honestly give don’t give two hott shits about that bullshit yall spittin. But keep it up this gets me thru work………I love it!!
Go Beyonce.. I love the two video’s and cant wait for the other ones to get released… You should have presented this package when the album was first released you would have shut all the haters down.. This is the Bey that I have enjoyed entertaining me throughout her career…. Good work….
boff videos r nice bey has a ring on dat married finger wats up wiff dat lolololol loved the hair in upgrade u jay z still oogli tho, he looks at her like y me LORD y me lolololololol
i cant wait 4 the other ones to get released, especially freakum dress and kitty kat.
c’mon you gotta love beyonce.
lol i love the hate, this is almost up to 500 posts. Everyone who says their sick of seeing her and hearing about her. U just add to her staying around by POSTING about her and HATING ON HER! if u really want her to go away(which will never happen) ignore anything about her. It’s as simple as that…..i know i do it to ashanti and Cassie and look where thats gotten me? I never hear about them now!
They look too much alike. Am I the only one that damn near had a anneurism trying to figure out who was who throughout the whole video? Not to mention it was dark as hell so I could barely see.
Nice……but I still miss Destinys Child. Im getting bored with her solo career.
The upgrade u video is alright but it copies ciara video like a boy with two beyonces on the same scene. The beatiful liar video works for me. I like it and its better than upgrade u. They actually looked like each other. WOW
491 SHE ALREADY SAID THAT ON 106. SHE SAID SHE LOVED CIAARA AND THAT CI WAS VERY INNOVATIVE.
THEY BOTH DID A GOOD JOB
Monica and Brandy duet was better.
THESE VIDEOS ARE HOT! ALL THE HATAZ KEEP SAYIN HOW THEY WANT BEYONCE TO GO AWAY, WELL IF YOU WANT HER 2 YOU CANT BE COMMENTING ON HER POSTS THAT GOES TO SHOW THAT YALL LIKE HER. IM NOT CALLING THE PEOPLE THAT DONT LIKE HER HATAZ IM CALLIN THE PEOPLE WHO SAY”BEYONCE IS UGLY, BEYONCE IS FAT,BEYONCE IS OLD NEWS ,BEYONCE CANT DANCE”HATAZ. IF YOU DIDN’T LIKE SOMEONE YOU WOULD SAY THAT U R NOT A BIG FAN OF HER AND LEAVE IT AT THAT NOT CRITISIZE. U R REALLY HATING WHEN IF YOU SAY THAT BEYONCE CANT SING, BECAUSE SHE CAN.EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN OPINION BUT SOME PEOPLE DO ACTUALLY HATE. NO MATTER HOW MANY ENEMIES BEYONCE HAS SHE WOULD STILL HAVE PLENTY OF FANS SO KEPP HATIN. THIS IS ALL SOME BULL SHIT! BEYONCE AND JAY-Z ARE THE GOA DAMN SHIT!
Wow Beyonce get’s some kind of attention here at CL, she’s probably the only one who can get close to 500…bet she reaches it too. The Upgrade You video, at first I wasn’t really feeling it but when she changed and Jay appeared I loved it. That was real cool, I liked the video. Already said I liked the Beautiful Liar video, her outfit to TRL/106 and Part…whichever…it was cutee.
Brandy and MOnias duet was muh better and the video was better also.
Wow! Damn you, Beyonce Knowles. You will live for a verrry long time iwth your name on so many ppl’s mouths. I see she can grab attnetion. Any other celeb would be lucky to get even 100 posts in this same time.
Looking at the video now. JZ doesnt een touch her once. And this JZ sitting in an armchair with her dancing around him thing has gotten old. Veeeeery old.
ALMOST 500!!!! Love the Upgrade U too….
I live in Ohio and Listen to a radio station in Philly (Shout out to Wendy Williams, HOW YOU DOIN?) and they play 3 of beyonce song (upgrade u, resentment, & replaceable) in heavy rotation. Also I got the CD late but it wasn’t as bad as some people said it was. Almost every song could be a single. How many other artist can do that? NONE….
Going to get the re-release on April 3 too.
BINGO!!!! OVER 500… and Award for MOST POST goes to BEYONCE KNOWLES………
FYI: If the people who don’t like her didn’t post then it wanted reach such high numbers. Don’t waste your time posting.
RIGHT ON #494!!!! RIGHT ON!!!!!
ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION
*************************************
haters and stans thank you, you have done it, passed 500 commnets and counting. that is definately a world record. keep hating and loving, i only hope concreteloop’s server does not crash.
LOL
lol @#454 Jen
lol @ number 75. You are a pure hater. I like the videos. Beyonce is not playing around you know.
And why is that many of you CANNOT SPELL? Arghhh, it is so hard to read your posts.
______________________________________________________
If i’m a pure hater, you are a pure idiot. At least my comment made sense, and i had something to actually add to this post. Please, next time you decide to respond to something i’ve written, please actually have SOMETHING TO SAY, cause your comment was so dumb and insignificant and basically a waste of space; you sound like an air head. And maybe you are having a hard time reading some of the posts because you are illiterate and need phonics.
i think i should start a blog ALL ABOUT BEYONCE, BECAUSE IT DOES NOT MATTER IF IT IS THE HATERS OR STANS. there would definately be traffic, and that would increase advertisement for me.
that would be my hobby this summer. LOL
You can tell the people on here with no lives; all they do all damn day is post dumb shit kissing beyonce’s ass. They are living through her and that’s why they feel so attacked when someone says anything aside from praise about her. Please, seriously get a life, and leave people to their opinions. You didn’t win grammys, beyonce did, you didn’t do these videos, beyonce did, you didn’t get oscar nominated, beyonce did. And if you actually met her, she’d probably spit in your face and say she don’t need you. So please stop acting like her life is yours; get your own fuckin life and get out of fantasy land dumb fucks. I hate STANS, they are pathetic, no-life having sorry ass souls just wondering the earth looking for someone of substance to glam onto. Sorry fuckers. I was just reading these comments and some are beyond praise, more like idolization and obsession. If you arent a STAN, then keep it moving, i’m not talking to you. But if you are a stan, you’ll respond and maybe try to pretend not to even like beyonce, but yet you had to respond. Yeah right, only people who will respond will be her obsessed fans.
ok. I don’t get why everyone likes Beautiful Liar all that much. it was wack and cheap and just had two girls shakin their hips the same way they do in all their videos. Upgrade U was hot. But it was also boring. I just like the Jay-Z impersonation part. That was undeniably cute, I must admit. I do LOVE the solo version of Beautiful Liar tho so if anyone has the mp3 PLEASE send it. I hate the Shakira version. I liked Shakira alot, though, before Hips Don’t Lie. Then it went all downhill. Oh well.
for those who are saying ciara hasnt gone platinum yet are dumb she went platinum in five weeks on the billboard charts and just went platinum on the r&b billboard charts and if u dont believe go to the link
http://ciara-news.newslib.com/story/5617-3219650/
damn like someoene already said ciara and beyonce definately stay in ppl’s mouth’s both killing the game dat sucks 4 u haters
It was another typical Bey video nothing special. Just proves that she needs to take a couple of years out of the lime light, because she is on overkill right now.
#505 JSCENE
I think what you wrote is purely ironic. It baffles me actually. Mainly b/c I see your name JSCENE, in every Beyonce post. What’s even funnier is that YOU leave MULTIPLE comments! Your constant visits to Beyonce posts indicates that YOU HAVE NO LIFE! So how can you bash other people and say they have no life? WTF??!!
#463 What the fuck is “a fair skinned Afican American”?
THAT’S WHAT I AM WONDERING ABOUT THIS JSCENE CHARACTER. How are you gonna try to knock people because they make a positive comment about somebody that you feel is getting too much shine? Because we don’t spend all our time being negative, and we can acutally give a sista who is doing her thing props makes us Stans? I feel sorry for people like you. It’s sad, honestly. What’s so wrong in your life that you have to be so ugly about everything? I’d just rather spend my time on things I liked, rather than spewing hate 24/7.

you think by adding that last line, that people will not respond, one thing is for sure, YOU are obsessed with Beyonce Knowles. whether you love her or hate her is immaterial, you are OBSESSED with her.
you and all of your other alter egos, LOUISE, marcusmax, and so many others that you have created. you even have discussions and arguements with yourself. if that is an indication of having a life, no thank you. you know most grown and intelligent folk here peeped your lame game some time ago. talk about it all of the time in the chat room.
but i think your shit is real deep. you on some real obsessive behavior with beyonce and the knowles. you either had a bad encounter or you just plain C R A Z Y
“if she ever met you she’d spit in your face and say she don’t need you”…
what kind of crazy statement is that. this is personal. were you one of the original girl’s town members? did you mom tell you that mathew was your pops? are you an ex-boyfriend, an ex-girlfriend? what is it? you claim to hate this woman, talk all kinds of shit about her family, but you can’t stop yourself from chasing every post about her. you claim to know all of the stats about her business, all about her family why would you spend so much time of someone you loathe?
a few weeks ago when people were getting at you, you pledged that you would change your behavior, you and “LOUISE” both pretty much said the same thing, and that lasted about as long as it took you to get into another character. then you came back swinging.
show us that YOU have a life, YOU stop posting ignorant hateful shit, you show us how it’s done.
And one more thing dammit? All you Beyonce fanatics, ask yourself this. Will Beyonce “which is a retarded as name btw”.. will she be as famous 20 years from now? She’s not on the level of Prince,Aretha,Marvin etc… I’ll give her this much credit..The bitch knows shes a pop star, not a true musician, so she raping the pockets of you dumb fucks while she can! And she also knows she can’t act worth a damn… So you fools go ahead and keep giving Beyonce all your hard earned money.. She’ll need it to live when she’s a has been in a few years!
can beyonce get a trophy for being the most talked about person on here? i mean all the vid posted and this is the one that gets 512 posts while the other ones can barely make it to 100.
beyonce is truly the shit, who knew one person could be talked about so damn much? i’m pretty sure beyonce will be honored by all the attention she gets on here as well as many other blogs who claim to be sick and tired of her but can’t get enough of talking about her.

you the dude that was so tired of the ‘beyonce loop’ (as you called it) two hundred posts ago and yet YOU ARE BACK with this nonsense.
I actually like both videos, the concept for Beautiful Liar is different, although it really does not work with the song. UPGRADE U is SICK, that is my fave song on BDAY, and I am curious as to what the other videos from the Video Anthology are like. You can say whatever you want about Beyonce, but she does make some good videos ( except for Deja Vu.). I don’t think I will buy the re-release, but I do like the videos.

awwwwww, classic moment by a hater!! beyonce’s name retarted? i hope to God your name is better and whether it’s retarded or not, i’m sure the MILLIONS who buy her shit and you haters don’t even need to know her last name. you say beyonce and people know who the f@ck you talking about. i believe she and alicia keys are the only legends that will be produced in this generation. beyonce has already made her damn mark in history. don’t hate on her cause she getting more shine than your favorite artist. may i also add that prince introduced her at the grammys by saying “one word…….beyonce” what you think he meant by that? prince knew he was introducing a future legend and prince said out his damn mouth that beyonce is the only TRUE MUSICIAN we have today. you can’t say she can’t sing cause you know damn well the girl can blow. you can’t say she can’t entertain cause she’s the best entertainer of this generation. just cause she don’t play a damn intrument don’t make her any less of a musician. if you don’t think she’s a true musician, go tell that to tina turner, patti labelle, prince, michael jackson, diana ross, even janet jackson, and many of the other legends who have said what you are in denial about. legends know best so i believe i’ll take their word over yours!!
don’t hate cause she’s a bad b!tch, if you wanna hate, at least be original!!
Beautiful Liar was a beautiful video, they were lookin pretty damn good….the song i can do without tho, maybe it’ll grow on me but the vid for Upgrade U was mighty boring…i did like the dance scenes tho and her doing Jay-Z’s part really reminded me of Ciara’s Like A Boy >.>
Thank you all! Beyonce has passed her limits,,making this the longest post in CL history.
WHY SO MANY LONG COMMENTS?! IT’S EITHER A PERSON LIKES IT OR NOT; NO NEED TO TELL THE PERSON OFF BASED ON THEIR DECISION/REASONING. IT’S THE PERSON’S OPINION SO JUST LET IT BE! NO NEED TO GO OVERBOARD WITH ALL THESE UNNECESSARY POSTS!!!!
I think upgrade you vidoe could have been better it doesn’t make sense to me it’s just another fancy vidoe.
Fancy Video
i dont understand why ppl hate on beyonce like they do…cant nobody touch beyonce right now! she just shot 8 videos in 2 weeks and bout to re release b-day to make mo money…you cant hate that.HATERS…WHO ELSE CAN YOU SAY GOT IT LIKE “B”…thats how we do it in the Htown—LOVE YOU BEYONCE
I LOVE IT. FU$K THE HATERS!!!
#520, i agree, people are really getting thier feathers ruffled over here. I like Upgrade U, which i did hear was shot before Ciaras video, I think her camp shouldnt have waited so long to release it. I heard her and Jay did the video to Hollywood the same also.
I refuse to read all these damn comments. I know the stans and the haters are out and in full effect. I just want to comment that beyonce killed this video. This and upgrade u…that’s why this girl is a superstar…bitch can make a hit!!!!
I knew this day would come. That the 2 of them would make a video. I always felt as though BEYONCE was duplicating alot of SHAKIRAS style in her videos.
SHAKIRA: the ORIGINATOR
BEYONCE: the DUPLICATOR
The video is “cute”. But it comes off that BEYONCE (once again) is trying too hard/ too hard to keep up with Shakira. Whereas with SHAKIRA the belly dancing moves comes so smooth & natural. Shakira has the art of belly dancing down to a science the moves are effortless on her part. BEYONCE has them as well–but she will always look a little “STIFF” next to SHAKIRA.
*Now BEYONCE has the SPANISH curly hair look, going on. So dont tell me- she is going through her “SHAKIRA” fase now. Do one video with the SONGSTRESS & now she wants to look LATIN!
LOL.
OH YEAH-& Did you check out how BEYONCE stole one of CIARAS dance moves in her “UPGRADE” video!!
LOL!!
What the hell was that about?
(CIARAS dance moves are original choreographed moves from the ATL—-that “CRUNK & B” shit) So cant nobody try & twist it up like CIARA took those moves from her! BEYONCE wants to be “HOOD & STREET” so bad it’s ashame!
The only street she has ever had “IN” her (literally)- is JAY Z! If she aint broke up with his TRIFLIN-CHEATING ass yet, she needs to WAKE UP & do it already.
Upgrade u video is the pure hotness! She looks AMAZING in every scene! And of course Jay adds his flawless cool swagger!
Don’t like the “Beautiful Liar” song, it is the WORST song Beyonce has EVER released! Shakira sounds like a back-up singer! Not a good vocal chemistry, but both ladies look stellar! And move STELLAR!
I bow down to the QUEEN BEE, no one is touching this chick in the game right now!
HATERS FALL BACK
I agree with 29. Everyone is so on BEE. She jacks a piece of everybody style and then tries to take credit for it. She straight jacked Amerie whole flow, which is messed up b/c Amerie was about to blow. Anyway. I am tired of Jay and Bee collaborations for a whole century. The video with Shakira was straight but I didn’t like it enough to vote for it on nobody’s count down.
Beyonce and daddy Knowles gonna be pretty damn broke after filming all those damn videos LMAO
Both videos are sweet but Upgrade U is that ishhhhh!!!!
DAMN!!!!!!! ALL THESE FUCKIN COMMENTS!! SOME OF YALL NEED TO CHILL OUT-IT IS NOT NECCESSARY TO POST 2 PARAGRAPHS WORTH OF BITCHIN AND CRYIN’- GO DO SOME HOMEWORK!!! I BELIEVE THE HATERS WRITE AND ARE MORE INFORMATIVE THAN THE FANS—BLACK PEOPLE ARE SO FULL OF HATE TOWARDS ONE ANOTHER–BE HAPPY FOR HER-YALL ARE DISGUSTING–WORD UP-
YA’LL LOOK AT THESE PICS OF EBYONCE “WITHOUT” MAKEUP…she looks a hot ass mess……AND YA’LL ALWAYS PRASING HER ABOUT HER LOOKS…AND SHE IS JUST AVERAGE. (copy and paste the link in the address box)

Cosign #29. It’s true y’all. Now before you stone me, I like Shakira and Bee. But the truth is that Shakira came out with her video for “Whenever Wherever” in 2001 and blew JLo and everybody else out the water. Bee was still with DC and didn’t release her first solo effort until 2003. When Dangerously In Love did come out, Bee was coming for JLo (remember she hired JLo’s stylist and all that…) and you could see Shakira’s swagger in the “Baby Boy” video and a little bit in the “Crazy In Love” video. And yes, Bee has since come out and said that she admires Shakira. It shows! Big ups to both of them though. They are both sizzling in the video. The song is aiight but the girls are FIYAH!
Oh yeah, there’s no digital enhancing. They’re both dancing but they switch places between the edits to dazzle you with the whole “twin” thing. Both girls are very talented and very hot in the video even if the song is kinda lame.
(Duck! Here comes some more rocks!)
http://www.beyonceworld.n...or/images/gladiator11.jpg
check out link ABOVE of BEYONCE WITHOUT MAKEUP!!
now tell me she looks like Shakira right there in that pic??? Because she doesn’t…she just a damn clone…wanna wear her hair like her’s and makeup
I repost the link

http://www.beyonceworld.n...or/images/gladiator11.jpg
lmao i hope this link of her with no makeup works
MAN BEE IS KILLING ‘EM. NOT TO BRING J-HUD INTO THIS , BUT SHE COULD NOT, WILL NOT AND BE LIKE BEE. IT’S OFFICAL !! THAT VIDEO IS WHAT BEE NEEDED.
Wow, now try to make us believe that a woman who is obviously beautiful, is ugly by posting links of her wearing a little makeup. You people have no life whatsoever. Sad. Really sad.
