From The Vault: Beyonce – ‘Baby Boy / Crazy In Love’ At 2003 VMAs

Published: Sunday 22nd Jun 2008 by Sam
This week’s From The Vault journeys back to Beyonce’s showing at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. Featuring the now infamous ‘upside down’ entrance, this performance of ‘Baby Boy’ and ‘Crazy In Love’ IMO was Beyonce’s ‘Motown 25’ moment – officially cementing her place as, hate it or love it, ‘The Hottest Chick In The Game’:

    Beyonce is the Hottest Chick in The Game and it’s true some people do hate it but it’s the truth.
    Nobody can put on a live show like Beyonce. I’ve never been to one of her concerts but I was able to by the Beyonce Experience DVD and I was blown away I wasn’t a big fan of hers until I watched it, she’s amazing.

    Yup, this is y haters hate…because of performances like this. Don’t get this confused with being conceided, get it confused with being confident with her knowing she’s the hottest in the game. Can’t wait til Tuesday! 😉

    Nice performance! I remember this, you know she’s a bad chick if she came out the ceiling upside down singing I’d be scared I’ma fall on my head or something lol go Beyonce she really does the damn thing when she performs thats why she has so many haters today. I enjoy watching her perform everytime because she’s dedicated and gives it 110%

    I agree with the person said earlier if you don’t like Sam or what he puts on his site then get the hell off and find another blog.

    i actually think this is one of her weaker performances. Her performance of DIL2 at the grammys is what won her over for me. the very beginning and very end of this performance are the only parts that i liked. Sam u shoulda posted from the vault of her performance of the bet awards in 03since the show is in a couple of days

    I agree with the post above, I love Beyonce and she is my favorite performer but this is a very weak performance IMO. Just everything was kinda blah, especially her voice which is always really powerful. But I still love her! I can watch her Superbowl national anthem video several times on repeat.

    OK WHEN BEY USES HER POWERFUL VOICE PPL SAY THAT SHE IS SCREAMING ……..BUT WHEN SHE DONT USE HER POWERFUL VOICE U SAY ITS JUST BLAH……MAKE UP UR MIND…..PLEASE…U KNOW THIS WAS THE S*** OR ELSE U WOULDNT HAVE POSTED A COMMENT…U WOULD HAVE KEPT IT MOVING.

    ok to the post above me. i love beyonce’s powerful voice. i never said i didnt so i dont know what ur talking about. Beyonce is my favorite singer, i have posters of her all over my room and ive been to 8 of her concerts, i seen enough of her shows to know when they are porwerful and weak. this one was weak(except for the end). I didnt really see “sasha” there until about the part jay-z came on. i said that DIL2 is her performance that won me over and she used her POWERFUL voice there so think before u respond to someones comment.

    ROFL 😀

    I thought this was a hot performance; I think she sounds the best when she’s restraining her voice. She obviously lip synched some of this though. But she’s still wicked-awesome.

    I luv this performance, but yeah Beyonce always give her shows 110%…I mean she’s the only female I know that makes everyone get out of their seats and dance because she wants to enjoy themselves and not be bored.

    On Tuesday BET Awards I have a feeling these female performances are going to be BORING lol!

    I hate the term “hottest whatever in the game” that’s sooooo ghetto and unoriginal. Anyway I didn’t watch the clip to comment on it.

  27. Anonymous June 23, 2008

    Not my favorite perfomance by her, but definitley one that gave her the title “Hottest chick in the game”… I remember i was goin in2 8th grade when this came out & since this premiered the last Sudney in August, the followin week school strated… Well 2 get on with my story, everybody was talkin about this. The girls were talkin about how she singed & danced & they guys were talkin about her ass… Nd we were all only 13 then.

  28. Anonymous June 23, 2008

    What is so ghetto about people calling her the hottest chick in the game. And it is original because her man Jigga was the first one to call her that… Got the Hottest Chick in the Game where’n my Chain. Anyway this was a great performance that she did. B KILLED IT. Queen Beyonce!

    I LIKE KELLY ROWLAND BETTER!!!

    Rihanna take a bow…..

  31. Anonymous June 23, 2008

    Okay so if HE called her that, why the F*** is everyone else saying it? It was clearly his opinion and then everyone (people who don’t even know her) started applying it. S*** is whack….annnnnd ghetto.
