    Why in the hell is Beyonce the only one up there with a damn bodyguard? All those celebrities on one stage and her bodyguard is the only one up there. If Mary was bold enough not to take her bodyguard up there, then Beyonce should chill the hell out! Damn!

    I am so glad that EVERYONE is getting involved in this election! PLEASE VOTE 2MA!

    Okay LMAO at y’all. I thought I was the only one that noticed Bey’s camel toe!

    But forget that.

    BARACK-THE-VOTE! Just some facts:

    We will know who is offically the president Jan 6. That’s when the electoral college’s votes are known.

    So man popular votes may say one thing but we might have some faithless electors…we don’t want that.

    You know, interesting thought: a coworker of mine said she was undecided because of who Obama was associated with like Rev Wright. She said Obama had to have been an idiot to not know as long as he was a member of that church. But, Obama’s own grandmother has said racist comments and has expressed racist fears because this country’s racism was grounded in “pulpit racism” in which the pulpit was misused and biblical verses misquoted for a personal racist agenda. How many white idiots sat under these preachers that practiced this and shook his hand after and said “you preached a fiery sermon today, preacher!” ? Slavery and segregation and discrimination was based on these sermons in which some believed blacks did not have souls and was created to serve whites and blacks should serve their masters. Personally, I’m not voting for the Democratic party, but Rev Wright was not the founder of pulpit racism and Obama was not a solo individual that accepted it as part of the “normal”sermon and became numb to its rhetoric. Just sayin’

    Lauryn - WHERE'S Beyonce's RESPECT???

    Is beyonce 4 real??? she was just at the hudson family funeral and now she’s out there doing whatever, i know it seems unfair to be mad at beyonce but she’s the only one i see up there who i know went to the funeral. i don’t even know the family at it breaks my heart.

    READ THIS

    As Jennifer Hudson attempts to cope with the monstrous tragedy that recently befell her family, the Oscar-winner has been kept afloat by an outpouring of support from famous friends.

    On Monday afternoon on Chicago’s South Side, Beyoncé, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Fantasia, Missy Elliot, Patti LaBelle and Queen Latifah were among the 450 mourners packing the pews of the Apostolic Church of God for the memorial ceremony to celebrate the life — and mourn the loss of — Jennifer’s mother Darnell Donerson, her brother Jason, and her 7-year-old nephew, Julian King, who, according to a family friend, all looked “peaceful and well-rested” in their open caskets.

    Also on hand for the service was Chicago native Oprah Winfrey, who opened up her home to the grieving star. “Jennifer has been staying at Oprah’s East Lake Shore Drive condo,” a source tells OK!.”There’s plenty of privacy and security there for the heartbroken performer.”

    After following a procession of three hearses and a horse-drawn trolley carrying the child’s coffin, Jennifer entered the church with her fiancé, David Otunga.

    “She walked in the church with David,” an eyewitness tells OK!. “He was at her side the entire service, wiping her tears and holding her. Jennifer looked equally in shock and mournful throughout the service, but managed a smile when speakers shared their memories of her family.”

    “Jennifer looked upset but managed to keep herself together,” a friend tells OK!. The 27-year-old shared the front row with Julian’s mother, Julia, and comforted her sister as she “cried the loudest of anyone.”

    Despite the difficulties of saying goodbye, Jennifer, 27, and Julia, 31, experienced some uplifting moments. “Jennifer managed a smile when speakers shared their memories of her family,” adds the insider, “and Fantasia brought the house down with her singing.”

    My heart breaks for Julia and jennifer i just pray they get through this.

    LOL @ all the B references to her jeans. They are a little tight.

    And aww at her wearing Jay’s scarf. I’ve seen him rocking that exact one a few times. And that’s Bey’s laptop y’all, the one Diddy’s holding. I’m tryna make out the picture in the background.

    Obama ’08. Make sure y’all go out and vote today!! No matter what.

    #44, I agree w/u. We still have to see about the electoral college. Bey looks good, but she must accept like me & other thick-thighed girls that we just can’t wear skinny jeans! Sure they will fit us in the waist, but our thighs won’t allow it!
