After creating Twitter havoc over Beyonce’s latest single “Bow Down/Been On, “Keyshia Cole took her impassioned sentiments over to the Jimmy Kimmel stage, late Monday night.
If you caught the 11:30 live broadcast, you might have been disappointed for having waited on such a lackluster performance. We were prepared for something much more stirring and full of umph, as Miss Cole’s past resume boasts. But the truth is, she began rather timid and exuded a string of struggle notes. Darn. Was the day’s Twitter rant still echoing in her head?
The boisterous diva ended on a stronger note, to say the least. Peep the live recording and let us know what you think about last night’s staging, on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

















Keishia is right, Beyonce starting to smell herself in that too tight leotard under her crotch! Beyonce you did not die for my sins and you have not died and come back from the grave, Why would anybody bow to you? Maybe she was talking to Kelly and Michelle!
Lol:)
The first comment is usually the wrong one.
She’s such a pretty girl, with an ugly, ugly attitude. Pity. Also, she was “sharp” most of the song…people who know music, or have done some singing, know what I mean.
When did CL become so biased? I mean dayum, lol!
I haven’t even clicked on the link yet but now you’ve told me it sucks.
I agree. It’s unusual for CL.
biased or not her performance did suck though.
I wouldn’t say it was biased, we stated our opinion of the performance. #jUSSAYIN!
I dont think it was biased, just letting us know what to expect when we click on the link.
OK I listened…..and yea it’s BAD as usual.
This chick is actually worse than Michelle, no shade!
Denial is a mutha.
keyshia just needs to hire herself a pro team to help with her performance preparation…..she’s not a pop-tart so she doesn’t need to hire a machine…eventually she’ll get better at the plus stuff and will be able to take the training wheels off
Every successful business needs a large team to help. So saying she doesn’t need a machine just says you know nothing about business or the recording industry.
Good job Keyshia, I enjoyed that, love the song and video. Trust and Believe!
as much as i dislike beyonce why is keyshia jacking her style with the big blonde hair?she been getting alot of publicity as of lately maybe she is the runner up for the new illuminati queen?this is allkind of wierd.
1st off. NO OTHER ARTIST PERIOD is doing what “BEYONCE” is doing point, blank, period.. Keyshia i love her music but she needs to stay in her lane. Beyonce can say what she wants in a song becuase she has PROVED herself. Keyshia still tryna get them notes right.
I think she just tryna keep her name in the news becuase her current tour isnt selling.
Follow me on Twitter- @TheRealMarkel ill tell it like it is
First off. Beyonce is not the BEST by any mean. Rihanna has more actual HITS than Beyonce does and she is 100% more authentic. And sorry to say but Beyonce is a one trick pony. Keyshia can state her VIEWS just like you can state yours. Beyonce is making a HUGE misstep with that current song she released. 4 was a commercial FLOP and this single will be as well. Beyonce is a MOTHER and to release such a boastful and misogynistic song is 100%….unnecessary and inappropriate. People can say what they want about the song and Beyonce insecurities of which she has MANY. How is Beyonce talking about the unity of women and how there is nothing like a conversation with another woman and release a song like “Bow Down Bitches?” It’s Beyonce who is always on a quest to stay relevant. Keyshia is about her MUSIC. Keyshia is not the invention or mouthpiece of misogynistic males. Keyshia build up women with her music. It’s clear this song was written for Beyonce and she just can’t sell it. Keyshia can state her views just like CL can and YOU. Respect the game.
excuse me but aint no body talking about RIHANNA..
and she will never be a beyonce.
Please stick to the facts . thanks
Excuse you? Then tell Be-YAWN_ce to stop trying to jack Rihanna’s style and attitude. Beyonce should stick to what she knows and stop trying to be what she’s NOT.
Beyonce is not a KING and she sure does not rule the charts like RIHANNA!
That RIHANNA Reign just won’t let up! Stay MAD!
Rihanna Navy STFU already! Get out of Rihanna’s herpes infected coochie! How dare you compare such a slutty, “I like to get my a– whooped”, can’t sing, dance, write, or produce music skank to talented and iconic Beyoncé? And you are bashing Beyoncé for uplifting women, but then coming out with music degrading women, but you must have forgotten when Rihanna stated in her 20/20 interview that SHE KNEW SHE WAS A ROLE MODEL FOR GIRLS AND LEFT CHRIS BROWN AND BECAME A STRONGER WOMAN! But now after countless interviews of bashing Chris in high fashion magazines over the incident, she’s back with him and MADE FUN OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE! She was the poster for a “strong women that survived” but went back on her words. You have no right putting such a low, down pig up against Beyoncé. At least use a classier figure like Kelly Clarkson and Adele! As far as hits and sales go, DEF JAM FORCED RIHANNA TO MAKE TRENDY MUSIC! Beyoncé doesn’t want to make Techno-Pop and Pop-Ballads like she does. If Beyoncé created that stupid, cliché music, she would sell more than Rihanna!
Angel you were right, I’m not mad at you giving us a heads up before we watched that trash!
she look so disconnected! I was so lost. lol OMG! im over here yelling “Sing the damn song!!”" She relied to much on her background singers, she was very pitchy and her runs were soo off. I was on her side at first but i think she need stop worrying bout what other ppl doing in their careers, get off twitter, and worry bout her own! she allowed BS to distract her from what she need to be doing. Very disappointed Keysh smh.
C’mon ya’ll. I’m soooo tired of seeing the sistas with blond hair. Get it together ppl and accept your own beauty. It looks absolutely ridiculous. This white supremacy has our minds messed up.
LMAO at the saxophone player lusting over Keisha and licking his lips during her whole performance.
She should keep all her comments on another singers vocals to herself. I’m just saying that shit was SHAKY BAKEY!
You know… this is just f—king pathetic. B—ch I knew you were up to something. YOU’RE BASHING A-LIST STAR BEYONCE FOR PUBLICITY!!! What a loser? With this flop a—song! Now when I search for Beyoncé news, I see Keyshia Cole Z-List a— name in the same headline for bashing Beyoncé’s song. Keyshia is always struggling to hit notes and is not a strong vocalist. There’s no way she can drastically improve because she’s been in the business for 10 years now and has only slightly improved a few years ago, but her voice is just weak. She relies heavily on Autotune. I hate celebs who judge other celebs, but have no room to talk.
That performance actually wasn’t as bad as i thought it was going to be based on the comments. She is actually talented, but I think her personality has turned people away for many years. Music is supposed to express different feelings and I think Beyonce was expressing herserlf. KC didn’t have to take it upon herself to comment, but, at the same time she has a right to her opinion and to express them. But she can’t be surprised if some in the industry turn their nose up at her in the future. Hate her or love her Beyonce has been a star since 1993/1994. And is still relevant.
I heard Keyshia sing this song love and she killed it. Something is not right with Keyshia she’s going through something and this was not a good performance.
I’ve actually seen Keyshia Cole twice, when she first a came out with her first record, and last year at the Essence, and she sounded real good. I have alot of empathy for Keyshia Cole, because look at her upbringing, and things she has gone through. None of us are exempt from our past, but hopefully we can all get better, and Keyshia Cole is human and no different.
Keyshia a mean bitch but I would say she is pretty and confident. See Ima a cool b fan thats why I dont know why people act the ways they do.
So this is why Keyshia went to her Twitter! S,art girl,,just in time for everyone to tune in to JK. She’s her own PR. Business woman is what she calls herself.
She’s gotten a lot better but she still needs to work on that ear. Maybe she should focus more on her “craft” and lay off the “Tweets.”
