Okay yall, lets try to start from the beginning...and by beginning, I mean, her solo career, starting with the Dangerously in Love period.
Lets gather all of the styles, dances, and songs, etc that she has stolen over the years.
EVERYTHING, from the lawsuits/allegations of stealing, to the outright comparisons of her stealing dance moves, styles, etc.....feel free to post Youtube vids that show comparison.
I would like this thread to get really big over time....I think its important because A LOT of people lurk here, and some people are just now becoming aware of all her antics, so this would be a good thread to get them acclimated with everything we've seen over the years. I would even say, it may make a good "sticky" thread that stays at the top so its always seen...THIS THREAD WILL EXPLAIN THE *CORE* REASONS AS TO WHY WE DO NOT LIKE NOR SUPPORT HER. There are many others at this point in time, but this is where it all began and what spun it off. We do not have to explain ourselves, but I think it does help if people see that it is NOT BLIND DISLIKE OR "HATING", OR ENVY THAT WE HAVE FOR HER - it is based off of facts and shade!
Post/Link/Speak On:
- Styles/Swag Stolen
- Songs She Lied About Writing
- Dances she was "inspired by" but Neglected to say so until it was called out.
- Files and Links to Lawsuits for copyright infringements and/or Breaking contracts and deals.
- Ways She (and Matty back in the day) outright SHADED and BLACKLISTED other artists.
- Awards, Titles, and Accolades that were most likely PURCHASED.
- Shade that OTHER Artists Have Thrown Back at Her For Stealing and/or Downplaying Their Contributions (think Etta James, Harry Belafonte, song writers who have politely spoken up when they were left off song credits, etc)
*Mods: I request that not only this be moved to a "sticky" but also any comments that stans/PR leave on here that are not relevant to exposing her, be deleted. I think this should be kept as a "clean" read for the newbies, without all that filler junk in between...I also suspect it will piss them off greatly due to it being such TRUTH that they're gonna attack it....thats fine, but I request, not in this thread.

Okay, I'm at work so the going is slow, but I do recall a lot of people saying how she totally jacked Amerie's style back during the Dangerously in Love period. That's when I used to be a Bey fan, so I wasnt up on it like I am now....I did find a couple pics of Amerie, and I'd say, yes if you look back on Beyonce during that time period, she was heavily "influenced" by Amerie. When I look at pics of her, I see the style Beyonce was on back then.
The ONE THING that I felt I could always give her, was her style and aura back then...but damn, now I'm feeling like I cant even give her that anymore.

Then, now that I think back on it, and I didnt recognize it at the time....her style began to evolve......
From stealing Amerie's swag....she moved on to the GREAT....Tina Turner...
(or was it the other way around? I cant remember...but either way, she moved on from one to the next)
Tina was brought in around the time she did "Work It Out"....when nobody gave a damn either (so it must have been before the DIL period)
Then I guess the Knowles Klan saw how that picked up for her, and they just kept rollin with it (no pun intended): And of course, it wasnt just Tina's look and style she jacked, but her mannerisms and the general way she performed. Through Matty's Magic though, she "made it her own" and the rest was history....that in itself would have been okay...a lot of stars kinda piggybacked off inspiration from previous artists (Usher and Chris Brown - Micheal Jackson, Lady Gaga - Madonna, Miguel - Prince, etc)........................but from that point on, Beyonce seemed to become ADDICTED to the swag jacking......and it goes from there....

I know I suggested we stay chronological, but as much as she steals, that will probably be impossible to do.....so just post as you will.
There was this shit stolen from Kerli: And then there was this hot ass mess she jacked from the original Madonna style (which was a lot better when 'Donna did it)..........she never even really went with before she changed into her "Ratchet" direction (which of course was lifted from Rihanna and now Miley):

Ahhh, I never knew that! Learn something new about this scandalous bish everyday...now that PERFECTLY makes sense as to why "Work It Out" sounds nothing like anything else she did during that period. Work it It sounds more like a Solange song, now that I think about it.....

Khia took a shot...
*Now, a lotta people dissed her for it, but so what...............Khia may be trashy - and she dead ass wrong for that struggle football outfit - but truth can come from ANY source... theybf.com/2013/06/19/shes-baaaaack-khia-disses-beyonce-you-will-never-give-up-stealing-wendy-williams-nabs-newShe's Baaaaack! Khia DISSES Beyonce -- ''You Will Never Give Up Stealing"Underground "Queen Of The South" Khia is back in the headlines for dissing Beyonce. Read a few of Khia's vicious tweets inside and find out about Wendy Williams' new reality show for Oxygen. "My Neck, My Back" rapper Khia has become a trending topic after she ignited the wrath of Beyonce's beehive by tweeting a few sting-worthy jabs at the Queen Bey. Among the tweets, Khia accused Bey of ripping the fanclub name "beehive" from Lil' Kim and also said Bey steals and copies from everyone. A few of the most outrageous tweets.... "Woooooooo im scared of the Beyhive ... All of you can stand in line to get swatted by Thugmisses like ya Motha Mammie Bey #should have..."
"MISS me with that "her product is original" bullsh*t. I'll believe that when i can see that hoe name on @ least "1" of her writing credits.."
""I thought the "BeeHive" was @lilkim's team @beyonce... Hmmmmm... you will never give up the stealing will you, sis... "And when the "Beehive" starting swarming around the Thug Misses, Khia came out swinging. **click on the link to see the actual tweets y'all...they are png files and I'm too lazy to convert to jpegs right now - BellaDonnaNot the FLEAHIVE though.... The entire weave snatching (so she says) ordeal worked to Khia's advantage as she became a trending topic and used the "press" to promote her entertainment company and upcoming performances. "Life is so ENTERTAINING!! Damn I love my life!! We're live tonight at Spot Ligh Tomorrow Legends and Thurs Pulse!!#Getmoneybitch" That damn Khia...

I'm thinking BeyDunce got herself a body double for this video. No way this heffa is that limber. They can do anything with videos nowadays. I'm not home to download this and stop it frame by frame. Sometimes it doesn't even look like her, only in the close ups.

LITTLE WHITE LIES, VOLUME ONE:Virginity:aishamusic.blogspot.com/2009/09/beyonces-virginity-story-dashed.htmlwww.hiphoprx.com/2009/03/08/wifey-beyonce-says-that-hubby-jay-z-was-her-first/showhype.com/story/virgin_bey_beyonce_claims_that_jay_z_was_her_first/ Beyonce's Virginity Story Dashed Beyonce Is A Liar Singer Beyonce Knowles has been caught in another lie. She recently claimed she was a virgin and her husband Jay-Z, was her first sexual experience. Her ex-boyfriend, who she spoke of at the beginning of her career, Lyndell, attempted to clear up a persistent rumor regarding her having an abortion when she got a record deal, as it would interfere with her career. When asked if he'd previously had sex with Beyonce, Lyndell replied, “No comment.” What kind of answer is that. If one didn’t have sex with the person in question, one would simply say no. The phrase "no comment" indicates not wanting to tell the truth, as it will be incriminating or embarrassing for someone. His answer of “no comment” indicates they had a sexual relationship. However, he stated he was not aware of any pregnancy or abortion resulting from it. *Why lie? Hell, I lost mine when I was 19, and I'm sure a lotta people did, and maybe even younger than that...so what? What makes it bad is that Beyonce just cant be real about her shit. - BellaDonnaDrinking:www.judiciaryreport.com/beyonce_says_she_doesnt_drink_but.htm She lied stating she doesn't drink, yet is frequently pictured drinking wine and champagne.
Beyonce Says She Doesn't Drink But.. March 3. 2010 ...she is often pictured drunk at the club (above) or with a drink in her hand...
Wearing Perfume: theurbandaily.com/2013/06/23/beyonce-allergy-perfume/
*Bish, how are you allergic to perfume EXCEPT your own? That makes no sense. Also, she stated her mom used to wear a perfume when she was little, that she would steal/spray on. Not to mention, she also promoted Diamonds, which was NOT her own.
Going to Private School vs Public:
She lied stating she went to private school, when Media Take Out and records reveal she went to public school:
aishamusic.blogspot.com/2009/09/beyonces-virginity-story-dashed.html
She lied stating she went to private school, when Media Take Out and records reveal she went to public school. August 17, 2009. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind of some more of Beyonce’s lies. In a recent interview with a British magazine Bey tried to sound all bourgeois – and told the reporters that she was educated in “private school.” Well, according to our research Beyonce attended two PUBLIC high schools – The High School for the Performing and Visual Arts and Alief Elsik High School (both in Houston). The rumor is that Bey changed schools often because she was having a tough time keeping up with the academic curriculum at the schools. After leaving both schools, Bey ended up being home schooled by her father. It’s still not clear whether Beyonce ever graduated from High School or achieved her G.E.D. Age:(so many sources) She lied stating she is 28-years-old, when state records reveal she is 35 years of age. Her friend Gabrielle Union and Media Take Out outed her on this subject. Writing Credits:She lied stating she writes her own music – when copyright certificates and registrations reveal she steals copyrights that were already registered to others and later re-registered them as her own, simply changing song titles and a word or two in the lyrics. She lied stating she wrote the song “Crazy In Love” and came up with the music sample used on the track, forcing the song’s producer to out her to MTV for telling untruths, as he wrote the song and found the sample.

YouTube - Beyonce Stealing Dance Moves As a dancer myself, this made me super upset. How are you going to steal choreography, costuming, cinematography, etc. and not give proper credit? It's funny, because when I initially saw the video, my first thought was, Oh, wow, Beyonce has real dancing in her video! Then I later learned she plagiarized the moves. So disappointed.

Selfishness. Didn't think the woman would complain. Knew her fans would accept more plagiarism. I'd be pi--ed if someone did that to me. I'd sue her ass AND demand a public apology AND demand she remove all traces of my work from her crap.

I had to jump into this discussion. Beyonce and her team made good use of George Michael's 1992 " Too Funky" video. 1) The Baphomet motorcycle bustier 2) The mechanical/cyborg hand (click link if pic doesn't show)
No girl, jump in all you want! This is what we want...its way too much theivery for one person to catalog, and everyone has something they know of that she stole, and this was a GOOD one...I remember this...

Yes, the vocals of " Green Light" off of B-Day in particular. Straight ripped off Amerie.

Of course this thread will be incomplete if we do not include her favorite person to bite style from:BEYONCE COPIES RIHANNA
You know, Beyonce reminds me of that chick from Single White Female, who did her best to BECOME the object of her obsession/envy.
