Men, women, people of all races have spoken:
EASILY, 90% of the comments have been NEGATIVE. Some of these are even from Concreteloop which used to be STAN HEAVEN back in the day...enjoy:
well where is the album at for 2013? Putting out a calendar what about the new album?
Mrs. Carter Show T-shirt, a tiny Queen Bey statue for your desk and her entire repertoire under an iTunes file...I don't have any of these and for sure won't buy her calendar!
perfect for the bottom of the litter box
How self indulgent..
Why would a single woman want this calendar? That headline is strange.
She's really pretty but enough is enough.
She was beautiful but is worn,plastic and tired @ an early age.
Limitless greed is ugly no matter how pretty a bow you put on it...
Did PT Barnum, Inc. produce this?
Why is Beyoncé looking like a straight up hoe, Put some clothes on you are a mother and a wife start acting like it.
Overexposed!
THe Stripper Calendar is here!
Made me think of this stripper I know who keeps asking me to touch up her pictures for a calendar she wants to make.
I can't fathom why any single heterosexual lady would want this calendar... IJS
because the spirit of greed and will build you way up and make you think you have it all.
she said she wants to be a billionaire,and if she had a real husband he would frown on some of the things she does,but water seeks its own level
LOL! … she tries so hard! Can we email Sinead’s letter to her?
I will never understand how an opinion puts you in a space where you are pressed, hater or dumb …. if a group of people see it necessary to buy this calendar then great…However if you say its trying too hard its your opinion and great. I don’t get it if you are not kissing her A** or a hardcore fan how are you a hater ….. its called preferences.
My opinion: this has nothing to do with artistry….and I do agree she is trying too hard. For someone who so pro women and positive images for women she continues to make a** and sex be the center of her career. Make a calendar with you hopping off jets, in dance rehearsals, writing in the studio, directing a business meeting… that is sexy and has personality. That is saying “Be a boss”
I mean why spend money when all I have to do is go to the blogs and see fifty eleven hundred stories and pics of her everyday. IJS
Bey is always trying so hard to be sexy like Rih butt . Rih can be nasty and still look Bad girl sexy .
*sigh* God help us…and her. She is the definition of thirsty. My disgust has turned to curiosity. What’s it like to be this desperate and self centered? She’s abandoned the butt pads for sticking it out behind a half open door….and this is the woman who participated in a concert for women or female empowerment? Earth to Beyonce, come in Beyonce. EARTH TO BEYONCE, COME IN BEYONCE…..better yet, don’t come in. Stay out there.
“Take a seat beyonce”, can you say desperate!
I dont get all the hate. Shes a business woman. Shes doing things to make money, and her fans will be pleased that this is available…… suddenly shes desperate? What is she desperate for money and attention? She has plenty of both so can we quite with the shade lol
RESPONSE: Beyonce is a business woman and so is Jenna Jameson (porn star) so just because someone is a business man or woman does not mean we should agree with their business decisions or moves. Our opinions is not hurting her or posing a threat its simply some people may think its too much or thirsty. It does not make them a hater if they do not share your perception. seeing a talented mother of a daughter and wife over 30 sticking her but out may to some people not be cute. some may not see an issues.. its their opinion. Hate is when people attack with hateful and spiteful words to tear down most of the time due to jealousy or envy. Some people are jealous or envious of her I bet. But some people tend to write her off and that is not hate its them saying why they will pass on putting their money into a business move that perpetuates an over sexed society.
@bey_ Whatever Bey is a whore on stage stop worshiping that joke !!!!
STOP LIEING AND TRYING TO DRESS UP YOUR GOD…
BEY IS FAKE AND SNEAKY .

People have spoken but she will not listen. Her label does not seem to believe in her much nowadays considering the fact that she had to go beg Pepsi to help her out financially. At first I thought the elite were still pushing her on us but now I'm starting to think she's doing it on her own. like the Elite have cooled off her but she's addicted to fame and accolades and all that junk so she's out there trying to keep the show going on her own and hasn't the slightest idea how to do that.

I think you may be right! The industry insiders are smart enough to know when the tide is turning, and they know when to stop pushing an artist...yep, its HER. And that part in bold...is the danggone truth. And its also why she never shoulda fired Matty. Thats why I'm like WHAT, when she released pics of her at the head of boardroom meetings and stuff, when we know damn well this trick dont know up from down. |

From a purely business perspective, I'm also strating to suspect that Beyonce as a product costs more to produce than, say, Adele.
Beyonce needs a whole lot of promotion, puts out fiflty-eleven videos, must be put out there as though she were a new artist and must be seen to be living a high life. All these things cost money.
And what a lot of people don't know is that the record lable often foots the bill for some of these things. That's how new singers can all of a sudden be in and out of exepensive places in expensive clothes, seriously, how much money do you think Rita Ora has? Seriously, think about it.
Allow me to digress a little. It's long been proven that not every celebrity is a style icon. Kate Middleton wears dresses and they sell out in days. Beyonce wears certain clothes and hardly anyone asks who they are by. So whilst you might think designers are throwing free clothes at her, chances are she's buying more than she's getting free.
Now think about this, Beyonce's been "rich" for a long time what with Destinys Child cash. But only when they started pushing this "glamorous" angle did we all of a sudden start seeing her living "that life".
All this to say, it takes a lot of money to produce Beyonce as we see her. And I'm willing to bet that a lot of that money is record lable money.
Now compare Adele, she's very low key. She isn't in designer clothes every day, she's not buying rolls royces left right and center. So the cost of producing Adele is much less than the cost of producing Beyonce. Same goes for the likes of Katy Perry and Britney Spears. They don't cost as much to produce.
Now from a business perspective, would you rather spend 80 cents to make a dollar or 20 cents to make a dollar?
This is why I'm starting to believe the guys in the board room are cooling off her. She costs too much. Stars are becomming cheaper and cheaper.
They are not seeing as much return on investment with Beyonce as compared to other singers who cost less and bring in more.
Think of Kesha, how much do you suppose it costs to produce Kesha as a product, compared to profit. I imagine it would cost 10 cents to make a dollar out of Kesha.
I think Beyonce as a product is really struggling behind other products out there. It's as though she's a luxury garden hose. You don't need a luxury gard hose, any hose will do the job (music is so generic nowadays.) So why produce a fancy garden hose when people are happy to use regular ones (Beyonce's lack of demand). If making a luxury garden hose is expensive, and not many people want to buy it, why bother.

What if that is what they want you to think... that Beyonce is everything that is wrong with music and Adele is everything that is right. It could just be roles that these two play, and would explain why Beyonce gets so much protection in the industry. To me, they are both over-hyped. Maybe people should ask of Adele what they ask of Beyonce. Would she have made it in any other era? Or is it just that people got so fed up of Beyonce, they fail to see how average Adele would sound next to past soul legends. And I think that is why Beyonce is still useful. She has become the face of black music for our generation.....and it makes us look bad. And maybe that is exactly what they want. |

I wasn't refering to the actual quality of music. That's debatable. I'm not a fan of any singer or celeb out there. I don't have a single complete album from any of these folks. I pick and choose. I was talking about the numbers. Nothing but the math. Adele and Kesha could be the same person for all I care, the point is it doesn't take a lot to produce them. Beyonce is expensive to produce. Her lifestyle, her outfits, her everything. Look at it this way. Imagine Adele going on tour, what would she need? A couple of black dresses, one mic, a piano, a few spot lights, some hair spray. Now let's compare that to a Beyonce tour: Custom made onesies, Custom made lacefronts, Several dancers and their outfits Stages that go up, down and all around wind machine, not even going to talk about her rider and entourage, including Blue Huge screen on the back with all sorts of stolen graphics Not to mention flying a lot of that stuff along with them. The fancy places she stays in. The list could go on You see what I mean? Beyonce is very very expensive to produce, and she does not bring in money like she should. With everything that goes into her show her investors should be seeing a certain amount of money and they don't despite Beyonce's goons running around screaming "SOLD OUT" everytime she farts. Of couse the whole good girl (Adele, Janelle), bad girl (Rih, Kesha) thing is an illusion. They ALL bow to the same master. Black, white, young, old, rap, pop, "gospel" they are, every last one of them, serving the same cause. |

I'm not trying to be mean but I do believe that bey is truly in love with seeing herself in print! She believes that she is beautiful and she must share it with the world to convince them of the same thought. You know what they say...."say it often enough and people will believe it (even though it isn't true). After the debacle/failure of her clothing line it's apparent that neither she nor her mother have an ounce of talent in fashion design. That clothing line was vehicle for beydunce to present herself to the world as "model".... In reality - she is to short, heavy and not photogenic enough, unlike Namoi Campbell. I'm not saying that she isn't pretty, many times she looks great in photos (asking: were they photoshopped?). And when she does look good - she never looks like herself. (let's not forget 4 Flop, where she morphed herself into looking like Rihanna)
BeyDunce just isn't "high fashion model material".... ergo the reason for her fashion line to show the world she could also be a model. Meanwhile they ran into the grown because they lacked real talent. They are both foolish and small minded people.

Does anyone remember when BeyDunce won a literary reward for her writing/s? Lmao.
Money and influence can buy anything. Shameful? YES, but true.

She doesn't realize that some of these things really make her look ridiculous. We know she can't write or speak or much else so for her to get some award is just a joke and she's the only one who doesn't get it. |

If making a luxury garden hose is expensive, and not many people want to buy it, why bother. Exactly! Beyonce does not bring a good return on the investment. As you said, why spend 80 cents to make a dollar when you could spend 20 cents. And I'll add, why spend much money at all when you're not even likely to break even. "4" was a flop. The sales were terrible and she didn't even get any hit songs off the album. I wouldn't be surprised if that album didn't make it's money back. I'm certain it ending up costing more to make than they got back. Beyonce can't sell music anymore. Add in the fact that her label had an expensive album roll out this year for an album that never even got finished because it was so bad. This was supposed to be a huge year for Beyonce and it turned into a complete dud. I doubt she'll ever get that kind of investment for an album again. |

I believe all the money that was invested on Beyonce was in hopes of turning out the new Michael Jackson of this generation. She no doubt promised to be worth the money and they are still waiting. Besides all the money, there was so much hype behind this failed movement. At any moment I expect things to die down drastically because it's getting harder for her to live up to something greater than she's already shown the world. I wonder how much more money, if any, will the record company invest in her attempts at being greater than life itself. It's only so much their going to do for you and you're not bringing in what was estimated to be coming in and putting her in the clear. Will she owe money? Will she have to use some of her own money to continue this hype? Things are going to change...such as life. I'm not a big Rihanna fan, but right now she is killing it and I also hear that Adele is returning soon with new music. These ladies are under 30 and are risk takers, unlike Mrs. Beysafe!
