You go B. make that money girl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beyonce is EVERYTHING!

Dang! We need a new word that means more than rich, or wealthy… OH I GOT IT: BEYONCE!!!

Let’s think back

Pepsi, Tommy Hilfiger, CoverGirl, McDonalds, Dereon, House of Dereon, Target, and now American Express… I’m sure I forgot something

Go Beyonce.

And I agree. She ain’t out there Paris, Nicole or Lyndsay Lohaning it. Great example to young girls, especially Black girls.

I forgot Loreal

yeah Bee….she looks FAB!

Beyonce is the best I can’t wait to see her multiple personality disorder asa in concert this week.

Im lovin her high waisted pants….she’s hot..i cant even TRY 2 hate, shes doing her thang.

I Love Beyonce! She looks so beautiful in those pics. Keep doing your thing! You’re MAD HOT!

it irritates me that she has become the standard of beauty for black women….but whatever

Congrats to Bey…and for though who think she’s about to take a break, sorry, shes back in the studio.

I’m sorry, but how funny yet ironic is it the title of this post is “Beyonce..

The New FACE of American Express” when she just fell and bumped her HEAD the other day. Oh the irony.

Make that money B! Shs is the ultimate hustler.

@34….who standards u talkin bout.

Damn those pants are cute as hell

Get that money!! I’m glad she’s leveraging herself well in other endeavors outside of music.

Her hair and makeup is on point today and looks beautiful. I do not like them pants on her, hippy people shouldn’t really wear high waisted pants. But i love that jacket and the shoes.

#38 everyones….thats why we see blonde weaves everywhere….thats why when women go into hair shops or workout they say “oh i wunna look like beyonce” for who?… to impress the many many men that compare ordinary females to “iconic” beyonce….now im not saying this is the case for everyone….i was speaking generally

34. What are you talking about?

Black women comes in all colors, shades, personalities, and styles. We got flava like that.

She can’t help that she’s Black and looks the way she looks. Find something else to dislike her for that makes some sense.

And people been wearing Blonde weaves before there even was a “Beyonce.” Mary J Blige and Aretha Franklin all wore Blonde hair but because Beyonce does it, it’s a big issue now. Please.

Go Beyonce. Beyonce is the BADDEST BITCH for real. I love her!

That’s great for her. Go head girl.

It just goes to prove that she’s a smart business woman by adding to her endorsements because she’s and international celebrity if her singing career ended, she’ll still bring in the money.

I’ve not read all the other posts but I knew this would be turned into a hate fest.

@34 , i sort of feel you…..i think beyonce is pretty especially when her hair and makeup is on point cause it just takes her to another level. You don’t hear about beyonce out doing crazy things because she’s very conscious of her image. She should be commended and i think she’s being rewarded with all these contracts.

But, i do agree with you in one way….i mean why not Alicia Keyes? You don’t hear her out doing anything stupid, but i think her music is on a deeper level than beyonce’s and of course, we know when something is more ethnic, no matter how successful you are, you don’t get rewarded as the more mainstream cross-cultural appealing artists like beyonce with the wigs and whole diana ross type superstar thing going. Instead it seems Alicia Keys is limited to public service annoucement about aids and other concerns that has to do with largely the black community. I don’t see people throwing contracts her way….and i think she’s just as worthy as beyonce.

Wow- she looks so fresh and ready for fall (no pun intended). The makeup, shoes and the little bomber jacket. I don’t know about Am. Exp., I never had one, but she’s in great company with the people who have done those ads. She looks great!!

good for her

#46 thank you….my case and point….whether ya’ll agree or not….it’s the truth

Those of you inspired to go get a gold card, I hope you know that bill is due at the end of the month! American Express don’t play when it comes to they money!

and i dont dislike beyonce at all…..i think shes overrated but i dont not like her….shes makin her money and i strive to be at her level one day (when it comes to business and makin money)

Beyonce looks hot like danm! lol keep it up girl

B has been in the game 4 so long that i 4get that she’s only 25, although she looks much older than alot of 25 yr olds i know.

Does this woman ever sleep?????? She’s everywhere….

46. I don’t see how your opinion connected with “A” but

If everybody was deep, sat down and played a piano, and didn’t provide that over the top performance the music industry would be very boring.

We have so much going on with war, crime, & whatever personal things you are going throug in life that sometimes you just want to let go and be entertained. You wanna have snap music or “Get Me Bodied” so you can go to the club or be at home to let loose and forget all that stuff. We don’t have to hear about deep stuff or what’s going on in the world all the time especially when you are already aware of it.

You have your Tracy Chapman’s, Alicia Keys, and Corrine Bailey Rae’s and you have your over-the-top performers like Beyonce, Ciara, and Janet. If everybody was the same it would be very bland.

She and her family worked hard for what they have now and nothing was giving to them.

Beyonce is a single black woman, 25, has NO baby daddys, and very career focused.

We dont see her charged with DUIs, sleepin with every male celeb, or partying all the time and gettin drunk. She lets females know it ok to be sexy and classy, not sexy and trashy. Not too many females are willing to put their own personal goals 1st. Instead alot get lost behind tryin to follow these men.

I personally think she is a good role model for young women

I LOVE ALICIA KEYS LIKE THE NEXT PERSON BUT TRUTH BE TOLD, IT’S SUPPLY AND DEMAND. ALICIA IS NOT IN HIGH DEMAND LIKE BEYONCE THAT’S WHY SHE WASN’T OFFERED THE CONRACT.
BEYONCE HAS LOREAL, SAMSUNG, ARMANI DIAMONDS PERFUME, AND AMERICAN EXPRESS ENDORESEMENTS AS OF PRESENT. THIS IS BUSINESS, THEY KNOW BEYONCE WILL SELL A PRODUCT, LOOK WHO’S SPONSORING HER “BEYONCE EXPERIENCE.”
AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT’S A GOOD LOOK!

I’m really proud of Beyonce and her many accomplishments. It kills me how some black women dog her out. It’s not like she’s Lil’ Kim or Foxy Brown where she’s always getting into trouble with the law or Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, or Paris Hilton flashing her privates to the world and sleeping with different men. You never hear her throwing temper tantrums or acting like a spoiled diva like Jennifer Lopez. In my opinion I think she’s a positive role model. People should be applauding her for her success.Especially as black women we should be supporting her where there are so many negative images of us in America.

Ive been watching beyonce since I was eleven….And ive probably heard her or seen her somewhere every single week since then!!!!!!!!……Its like she got a single out..when u blink your eyes again….boom! she drops another single….out of all the celebs im sick of seeing…she holds the throne

I love her tho…she Bomb lol

What Jay say……..”don’t knock the hustle.”

Go head Beyonce, keep doing it big…she ain’t stopping for nobody and I don’t blame her, get it while you can b/c the entertainment industry is very fickle.

Beyonce, is really doing her thang, you can’t help it but to give her, her props!! She is beautiful, talented, and goal oriented!! She is my role model, because she is such a determined BLACK young woman, and she is NOT going to stop until she achieved all the things on her to-do-list!!!!! So, all you people talking about yall tried of her, yall need to stop watchin TV, and cut off yall computer, because BIONIC B is here to stay and she aint going nowhere!!!!

She looks nice….as usual.

she look like halle berry far away in the last pic…go head girl!

@55

I definitely agree with you. Beyonce is a hustler, and so is her family. I think they are relentless and they stop at nothing, and they expect the best; she’s reaping well from that core family attitude, as she should, and as anyone who fosters that same frame of thinking should. And her music has a definite place, why? Cause numbers don’t lie, even if record sales number can lie, concert ticket sales can’t. She has cemented a place for herself.

But this is what i think #34 was saying:

Remember the video that was on here a few months back, when the young girl did a documentary on the black dolls and the white dolls, well when you go into our neighborhoods, most black people don’t look like beyonce, they don’t look like halle berry, and yet these are pretty women at the height of their success; yet, most black people cannot “physically” identify with them because “stereotypically” they don’t look like your average black person, (i.e, wider noses, textured hair, thick lips)but i think #34 was saying that the world is more accepting and willing to reward people who look like halle and beyonce, rather than a lauryn hill or someone that more closely “physically” looks more ethnic (wider noses, hair texture, lip size, etc). Thats why when the girl who did the documentary asked “which was the good doll”, they all picked up the white doll, because that’s who they see successful, on tv, in movies, on a more large basis. Thank God Oprah is there to the cut it a bit, but on a larger scale, the more successful artists and the ones that reap the most rewards from WHITE AMERICA (american express, you can’t get too much whiter!) are the ones that look like beyonce. When Alicia Keys and India Arie came out TOGETHER, we all know that most of the accolades went to alicia, even though she was rockin them braides, india was rockin them locks, and that’s a hella no no if you want white mainstream america to accept you.

Beyonce and all the others that i mention deserves everything they have gotten…but i think with the “doll test” i can see why little dark skin girls in our communities hate themselves, cause they don’t see people like them, , get rewarded on a grand scale, just in bits and pieces - instead it’s only done if they have that crossover appeal. And when the halle’s and beyonce’s get rewarded, while we all still know they are black, it’s like mainstream america is sending us a message, “we’ll only ACCEPT you and validate you, if you look like this”.

I could be wrong, and #34 tell me if i was way off base, but that’s what i got from what you said.

@57

Of course i was speaking of WHEN ALICIA WAS AT THE HEIGHT OF HER SUCCESS, not now. But i think she’ll be good now, she’s taken them braides out and she has a more mainstream look now. Though i don’t know if she’ll keep that look with the release of the new album.

Well, it wouldn’t be Concrete Loop without ignorant racial arguments…

Anyway, Beyonce is a decent singer, and it’s great that she’s so successful, but Jesus Christ, she is EVERYWHERE. I’m tired of seeing her and hearing about her all the time. Goodness, she’s not even that great.

Get that paper B

love her outfit…the rich just keep gettin richer

PUBLIC APOLOLGY, PUBLIC APOLOGY, PUBLIC APOLOGY, PUBLIC APOLOGY

Please forgive me everyone with that long as hell post. I was so quick to defend #34 in their statement, when they said they were sorry beyonce had become the standard for black beauty. I thought they meant that only people that look like beyonce get contracts like american express.

BUT, upon reading further, i see that Venus Williams (who we all know is black, look black, cant get her mixed up with no other race than black) also had the contract as well by american express.

So please disregard my posts at numbers #46 and #65. While i had points, they are not in fitting with the conversation and topic today. So sorry, please don’t jump down my throat.

At #34, sorry, i thought i knew where you were coming from, but i obviously didn’t. As you were soldier, you’ll have to defend yourself on that one.

Yay, BEY!!! WHOO!

GONE B!!!!!!!!!!!!! GIVE THEM HATERS SOMETHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT WHENEVER YO NAME COMES OUT THEY HATIN MOUTHS!!!

Beyonce stay wearin Christian Loubitons!! I need to get on her level!

So sick of this overcommercialized bitch. She endorses EVERYTHING.

i say good for her…..next please
