GUESS WHO: PLAYING CONNECT FOUR W/ KANYE
Wednesday, January 2, 2008

Guess what popular singer/actress was playing Connect Four with Kanye West backstage at Jay-Z’s 40/40 club in Las Vegas over the weekend? Hint: Word is, she beat Kanye 9x (in a row)!

It’s Beyonce! Kanye wrote about it in a new blog today. Oh and he won one time (as shown in the photo above).
Check out what he said:
…but every now and then people would speak of this legendary connect 4 champion… BEYONCE!!! I had 2 play her!…so last night at Jay’s new 40/40 club in Las Vegas (which is sidebar, crazy big w/ 24krt gold flooring, Black Jack tables, $500 slot machines,the biggest projection screen in the universe and the best turkey burgers I’ve ever had in my life) she beat me 9 times in a row! (and I didn’t even spaz lol) [READ MORE]
Looked like fun times and I’m glad Kanye is back to bloggin! That’s wassup.

Why are ya’ll talking about her skin color? Is it that serious? Her skin color looks the same as always to me. Then again I don’t be staring at her pics all hard looking for stuff like some people do. All I see is 2 normal people having fun and that’s all. Who gives a damn about skin color. That’s something when your skin color becomes the debate.LOL Wow. Moving on….Kanye looks happy and that’s good considering his loss. They both look happy and like they’re having fun.

That’s cool…they’re just chilling and having fun…there’s nothing negative to say about either of them…
Kanye looks like he’s in serious deep thought in that first pic…trying to come up with a strategy to win…

Connect 4 is dope. But Spades is my shit. My future wife Bey looks sexy as usual, to me she can never look bad. rotflmbao @ Ye’s checker shirt. I guess he dressed for the occasion.

I thought it was a white gay guy playing with Kanye!
Oh, it’s Beyonce! :):)
To all of those that don’t know, she is that light naturally. In the winter, light-skinned people tend to appear pale looking, it happens to me all the time.

love u bey

101 you’re obviously not that big of a fan or you would know that she is naturally that light. She uses a bronzer in the movies and stuff duh. She’s on break so she’s not using it right now and plus it’s wintertime too. Besides everyone should be happy to see Kanye happy. This is not about Bey’s skin color so go find something else to debate about. Be happy for Kanye.

#87, please go somewhere. All the block busters that b was in would’ve been hits without her. I mean come on do u really think Austin powers did over 250mil because Beyonce was in it ???lol And the only movie that she has starred in that needed her name 2 carry it was Fighting Temptations whiched FLOPPED HARD! And please anyone with eyes can see that shes BLEACHING BADLY. LMAO at the bronzer comments. Are you people really that naive. I bet u probably think that wig she has glued on her head is hers too right???LMAO
Glad 2 see Kanye doing ok.

damn,can beyonce just live and enjoy regular fun activities without u haters lookin for something to negative to say. for the lost and confused ones(mostly the haters),thats beyonce’s natrual skin tone,and No it has nothin to do with the lighting,coz if that was the case,then Kanye skin tone would have have lightened up too(they are in the same room). everyone knows she’s always be extremely lightskinned and like most lightskin folks,she loose her tan and get lighter in the cold seasons,im glad she’s takin a break from applying that bronzer,and just rocking her natrual light skin tone. it’s a new year people, the skin tone hating is so 2007.

@108
damn ,are you that pressed???? yeah, thats why she’s gettin paid majorly and is featured in all the promotional previews for those movies. plus you sound so ignorant.it’s obvious you don’t know what a spray on tan and bronzer can do for a lightskinned person. i guess ms beyonce would rather bleach her skin and then go sunbathing,just for the fun of endangering her skin to cancer. ignroance is so NOT bliss!

#108 is a female disguising as a dude cause ain’t no way no man gonna be hateing on a sexy ass chick like Beyonce. Only females do that shit. Either that or you gay as hell dude for real. LOL
But it’s good to see Ye holding his head up and yeah Beyonce will always be fine as hell.

SMH I bet a $100 that “*” and “mark” are the same jealous hater. I mean who hates on a pic of two people just chilling and having fun? I’mma need for ya’ll two or one to find something better to do with your lives.
FYI Fighting Temptations did not flop so if you’re gonna hate at least know what you’re talking about. It wasn’t as big a hit as Dreamgirls but it still did good. Bey got a GG nomination and I highly doubt they would have given her that if she couldn’t act. So on behalf of the non-haters at CL */mark go sit down!

true… #108 really needs to get a reality check and stop trying to discredit this beautiful, talented, black woman.
and like #119 said… your probably a woman, you should learn to bring each other up insteaad of trying to pull each other down… your like a crab in a bucket. it’s not cool.

O.k is it just me or does this topic have absolutely nothing to do with Beyonce’s skin color or about her being an actress?
* you should ask yourself why you came on a post about somebody you don’t like and got way off topic. Beyonce is respected as an actress so you’re fighting a losing battle.
mark everybody knows that Bey is naturally light and that her and a million other celebs use bronzers and light skin people get lighter in the winter.
I swear it be some retarded people that comment on here sometimes. SMH

lol@strip connect 4. and lol@115 - that was the cutest explanation!
Anyway, this is such a cute photo. I don’t have any idea what all the skin talk is about. the woman looks exactly the same as she always does - rich, beautiful and successful.
it’s so great to see kanye smiling, and glad that he is handling this sad time well. i’m sure his mom would be proud to see him holding up.

This right here? This is the good life Ye was talking about. Playing Connect Four in the back room of a million dollar sports club in your casual clothes with people who genuinely like you for you, getting SERIOUS about it. Look at they faces! All serious and shyt! Go head! I know it was like two serious acts of concentration goin on right there. Sometimes it be’s like that! Cause Ye don’t take losing well, you see how happy he was just to win ONCE.
Go head! I’m just glad to see him smile a genuine smile. And props to the chick stacking them black chips that helped put the smile on his face. Forget about a dress, put your Freakum Game Face on.

When did this story turn into a debate on colorism? Lol, @ people being judgmental off a 2 megapixel picture. Let’s no start 2008 angry over nothing.
Anyway, that’s one of those new connect four games. It has a round base. Back in the day, ours had those 2 stands on the side. You ended up loosing one, so one person had to hold the grid up and play at the same time. What do yall know about that?

@unbreakable07 yeah it is the lighting. you do see that the light is by her right and if the light is shining on you more than on the other person, it will change your appearance more than it changes the other person’s appearance. i don’t think the chick is bleaching herself though but a combo of lighter foundation and lighting DOES make ppl look lighter (trust me it happens to me). i mean it’s common sense b/c even when she was younger, she wasn’t near-white and winter has been going on since the earth began revolving/tilting so why didn’t it show before? but it’s interesting that when trina’s pic comes up, everyone talks about how light she’s getting. personally i think it’s trina’s makeup choice that’s different and she might have tweaked her skin a bit (chemical peel for instance) but i don’t think she’s bathing in lightening cream like ppl say she is

Bee looks cute. I didn’t even think it was her, to be honest I thought it was a white woman. LMAO She looks so light but look at her mama though, and besides its winter. Some light people tend to get pale during this season if they don’t spend their time tanning 24/7.
