How weird. I can't think of why...Her looks? Fake! Work ethic? Overexposure! Music? Fun, but shallow.
I don't know what it was.
All I know was that a small part of me didn't like her, her so-called perfect life, and the scandals.

When she first came out, I loved the classy and sexy, yet down to earth vibe of the DIL era.
I liked the "posh" feel of that album, and I actually used to find some inspiration in her look, even if it was a bit fake.
A big reason I liked her was simply her performance on the Live at Wembley concert. Even to this day, I still have on occasion to watch that maybe once or twice a year as I clean up or something, because it was just a different Beyonce back then (at least the image was held up better).
I think what REALLY made me take to her during that time, is the fact that I was in my EARLY 20's and I could relate to a lot of the themes on DIL and I was feeling my way around the world. So I was young and naive and she just luckily landed a place in my psyche during that time when I was impressionable, and thats the ONLY reason I even look back on the DIL era with any fondness....and over time, even that is starting to fade.

When DC blew up I was about 13. To my juvenile mind they looked like the mature sophisticated but sassy woman I wanted to be one day. Of course as I grew older... my idea of sophistication and mature changed a lot.

I always thought she was ok she had songs I liked but I was like whatever. Then come 2011 I started watching her performances and I was like wow she's amazing and she's so sweet. Then i saw some YouTube video calling her fake bitch or something and I watched it and I was like umm ok. Then I looked up is beyonce fake and there were articles on why people say she's fake and then I found out about her lip syncing and the destiny child issues. Also the whole illuminati thing. Now I was aware of the illuminati in 2009 and I believed it was true and I layed low off them for a little then I was like naw that's not true, although for the most part I still stay away from jayz. I dislike most of the people who are allegedly from the illuminati to be honest Then I started getting into again and I was like wow and believed it was true again and then I saw a video of this guy who makes anti illuminati music and he was saying that the people in the industry don't even really know about the illuminati and just use it for views basically. From that point on I thought that it was just a rumor. I won't say that none of these celebrities don't worship the devil but I don't think they're a secret society. I just believe that people get money and think they're invincible and can do whatever. They let material things cloud their mind. Anyways after I let go of the illuminati thing came the baby scandal and I was just like I can't with her anymore. I mean I have to be honest I still think she is a good entertainer but her fake image and all her ish makes me dislike her. It's frustrating at times because I actually like most of her music and some of her performances but her personality and image just throws me off. If she was herself I would actually like her and could respect her but the fact that she claims to be a role model but then gets on stage and thrusts and gyrates it's just like ugh. Smh but yeah that's my little story lol

I was a fan of DC, not huge, but a fan. When they split, I moved on. I didn't get into Beyonce solo. I just wanted interested. I liked some of her singles, but they never pushed me to buy her music. I was more into Aaliyah, Brandy, and Monica. I just liked their music better. So i never got really caught up in the Beyonce thing. I never saw the greatness about her that others saw. I still don't see it.
truth be told, i don' thave a deep dislike for Beyonce. she does get no my nerves because she seems really calculated. it just seems like all that she does is planned. her interviews seems so dry, and i don't like her personality (from the videos posted on DR. i really don't like her stans though. they are so delusional. i mean just admit with the girl does somethin' wrong. jeez!

Well I wasn't into Beyonce like that, well I am almost 40 so my taste in music is a little different but she was cool in DC and her 1 album which I did buy and even bought the 2 one well it took me like 2 years ha ha to buy both of them, like I said I have diffrent taste in music. Hell it took me over 10-15 years to get into MJB I know I know yeah it took me that long. I didn't really get into MJB until the Breakthough album I know I know what, yeah and then I started to really listen to her music. I mean I did listen to her and knew some of her somgs I just never bought none of them until Breakthough. It takes me a while for artist you know. So in total it took me almost 2 years to buy the 1 and 2 cd. I like the first one and the 2 one I only like the song Neyo wrote that was it. Then I saw who she really was and I was like I am selling her shit back to the record store and I haven't bought one ever snice.
