American Idol alum Jordin Sparks is all grown up, and wants to make sure you know it.
Rocking a new slimline figure, the season 6 winner returned to the Idol stage last night to make an emphatic statement with a live showing of new single ‘I Am Woman’.
Weave-tossing, hip-shaking, and Naomi Campbell walking, Sparks’ performance seemed quite familiar.
See for yourself after the jump…
Clearly, someone has been watching ‘The Beyonce Experience’. Not that there should be any shame in Sparks’ game; for, to be the best, you have to study the best.
However, having still not established an image or lane for herself musically, the 21 year must ensure she does so with this latest project. Because after the sales of ‘Battlefield’ (180,000 in the US… to date), I’m shocked there’s a new project to begin with.

This was a mess Jordin! lol even Beyonce can’t do herself coz she copies everyone and puts it all together..
Lol, JS is talented, but what a s*** song.
Jordin’s performance wasn’t all that. And Sam, you think Beyonce invented being s*** fierce? Beyonce does it well though, I’ll give you that.

i agree with that. alexandra burke is the undisputed champion of copying beyonce!
guys stop hating….. at least she is not walking around
go jordin
@Stonie Brie Sit b****! I dont see anybody trying to be ur fav or anybody else since THE QUEEN stepped on the scene. THE QUEEN is inspiring bishes left and right, thats a true icon. Anyway i love Jordan and her voice is made for high power ballads and i like the performance.
this performance was way better than rihanna’s CKB performance!

alexandra is a BOSSBITCH in england front runner, she coming to try take wigs in the US this year all them lazy ass non singers get ready cos a real champ about to come SLAY
Alexandra Burke aint even that popular in the UK. She’s had what, 3 singles. All of which have been pure pop s***, not even commercial r&b. She sucks. She ain’t taking anyone’s wigs.
Jordin rocks – simples.
@BROWNGIRL
You forgot Rigoat.They all study from THE QUEEN :TAMAR RIHANNA ALEXANDRA even NICKI TRY TO RECREATE THE CATER 2 U LAPDANCE AND FAIL EACH TIME
JORDIN DID GREAT AS BEYONCE W/ A BEYONCE SOUNDING SONG
Sam, the shade is unnecessary when someone HONESTLY tries, you know.
She has a beautiful voice, se can sing live and stays on key and she’s really pretty . I’m glad she doesn’t shy away from chanelling The Queen Bey because she got what it takes to go near there.
So, kudos to you Jordin, keep up the good work. I’m rooting for you.
Yas Jordin..give it to em!
That was Amazing!!!…I was watchin lastnight.It’s now #40 on iTunes.
it’s too Repetitive. the hook is, just like Beyonce’s RunTHisWorld too too repetive with all that shouting……what’s wrong with rnb females song writing skills/lyrical content these dayz??? They need to go and hire song writers from the 60s and 70s, or find someone from Motown, hell Smokey Robinson is still alive, maybe go to Babyface. Hell, I dont think no other female from rNb/pop genre will get it right from this generation. But I’ll keep checkin.
I’m sick and tired of everything always being attached to Beyonce F****** Knowles !!
I didn’t see ANYTHING that made me think of her … NOTHING ! Besides the fact she’s somewhat dancing and she’s a woman !
DANG LEAVE US ALONE CUZ YALL REALY TRYNA MAKE ME HATE HER !!!!!!!
I feel like I’m listening to a little girl. And the performance was everything but professional. She needs to get a better team.
Sit down Dame Right Alexandra is popular in England and Europe she has had 5 top 10 hits and 3 No 1s.Jordins vocals are on point but she is not a natural performer which is what Alex is.Alex has a track with Swizz Beatz coming out and she will be snatching wigs.
am sorry, that was allllll beyonce. create ur own art, dont be a copy-cat.
end off!
There was nothing Beyonce about this performance. Just because she is singing and daincing does not mean she is trying to be Beyonce. And Beyonce is not the only one who can sing a female anthems. People like Shania Twain-I feel like a Woman, Aretha Natural woman and many more did way before her. It was a great performance and very energetic. She is my favourite winner of the show. She has great talent and hope this time she is more successful. I liked her last album singles.
CHERYL COLE IS ALSO TRYING TO BE BEYONCE
WHY DONT U THINK THEY ARE GIVING HER THE MILLENIUM AWARD FOR? SHE IS AN INSPIRATION
WOW, she did an amazing job! Love I Am Woman
LMFAO@Aryo GIRL BYE! U dont have nothing to show me hunnie. BEYONCE IS THE REINING QUEEN OF MUSIC! ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC PERFORMER OF ALL TIME! THE QUEEN OF THE STAGE! WHO DONT WANT TO BE LIKE HER? I Bet ur fav do! **BEGONE BISH** @Michellewfan Girl because she is the past, the present and the future! WHY U MAD?
i love the performance , and its an amazing song , love it
dont be a hater , shes doing good music , her last album was GREAT , loved it , cant wait for her next :)))
,
it was S*** and sassy and the girl had the swagger !!
i like Jordin.. she seems to be a sweet girl… but she makes some awful song choices.. for a cd full of 13 or so songs, one might be good. I’m glad she’s stepping it up performance wise though.. she needs a little polishing but hopefully she will get there..
It was ok. She may have copied, but not a good copy. It seemed a bit slacking, & robotic.
Stop hating on Jordin…she needs to do more performances like this. I thought this was GREAT for her because she comes across as boring and too sweet. Congratulations, Jordin, for stepping up your game.
@ arroyo what does this have to do with Rihanna. Rihanna was singing a ballad so what do you want her to do shake it up to a song about a king sized bed? You sound so ridiculous. Some of you all can’t keep rihanna out of your mouth.
Im sorry but this girl is a f***** flop. She need 2 go 2 da disney network and ask if she can do High School Musical Revamped bcuz her music career is goin no where fast!!!!!!
Relax Sam. Do you seriously think that everyone’s checking on Beyoncé? She’s clearly a very influential artist but it’s not like everyone is trying to emulate her. SMH
GUESS THAT VIRGIN THING DIDN’T WORK OUT FOR HER HUH
Inspired by Beyoncé or not (and if she is, it should obviously be taken as a compliment), this performance wasn’t very good. It seems like she’s trying to be this person she really isn’t. Looks a bit forced.
@ Stoney- Brie:
Exactly the same could be said for pretty much every artist of this generation. Nobody is original in the sense of coming up with anything new, so originality these days is taking from whomever inspires you and making it your own. I’m sure if you have a fave artist from this era, they’re probably no less of “copycats” than Beyoncé is.
* of a copycat.
Jordin did an amazing job especially considering all the past music she has sung before. She now has an uptempo/midtempo song and has the body to be dancing and running around on stage and she did it up! She did a GREAT job and has the type of voice to pretty much sing anything. The performance was probably inspired by Beyonce but this song is MUCH better than “Run The World (Girls)” it was AWESOME!
I don’t like this song but she did a great job. I don’t know if there was a video lag or if she was singing over a track as there seems to be a disconnect between her lips and the video feed! LOL 🙂
In any event, she looks FABULOUS GET IT JORDAN!!
just 180k to date?
WOWWW
I’m more than impressed with this performance !!! She put so much effort and energy into it. Amazing 🙂
and this is like B how? other than that, dumb song, child, u should b embarassed performing this… sit.
This is the only reason I watched Idol this season, looooove Jordin and it was her first time performing the song live so she’ll get better.
If Beyonce single handedly wrote, produced all of her songs and made up all of her choreography alone she and stans would be able to lay clain to her being copied.
She doesn’t so they don’t.
Come on Jordin no! Alexandra or Alesha Dixon will snatch your wig so don’t bring this to the UK.
This song is blah. Jordin can sing but this wasn’t it. Her dancing leaves much to be desired. And if you’re gonna sing about stompin in stiletos, wear STILETTOS not wedges. I can’t rock with this song. Sorry Jordin.
o no honey. dont say she channel her inner beyonce. when she really channel her inner solonge. i exspected so much more. ima need yall to get it together. cus that dam sure wasnt no B.
???? How is singing a song about being female empowerment “Channeling Beyonce” lmfao. The desperation reaches new heights. Because everyone knows BeYAWNce was the first person to ever empower women.
I think it was cute, BUT NOT for a good comeback, BUT def cute-I liked it…SHE DID A GOOD JOB!!!!
Beyonce can keep all that weave flippin n hip shakin…Jordin can ACTUALLY sing!!
Nice performance
This site is doing way to much,,
Well I liked her performance rather an artist TRY then just stand there and walk!
And you all know the b**** can sing so let’s not go there
and beyonce……
JORDIN HAS A PRETTY VOICE BUT SHE DOES NOTHING FOR ME. SHE’S SUCH A PRUDE. I HATED HOW SHE USED TO SHOVE HER CELIBATE BELIEFS DOWN PEOPLES THROATS. MM HMM SHE LOST A FEW LBS AND NOW SHE’S SEXING IT UP. I SEE YOU HYPOCRITE!
alexandra will murder this H** jordin hunny sit stick to battlefield you in a BIGGER place then alex and still cant snatch wigs alex sold 1 million + with her DEBUT globally NOT includingthe US so only europe UK and australian territories sorry h** ALEX will run your ass for you when she come bey bey already her bestie SO is usher, swizzbeats everyon already knows this girl and shes made deals dont worry she gonna get her grind when she travels to come snatch your WIG
#1 That performace was terrible.
#2 That performance screamed beyonce wanna be.
So Rihanna, Jordin Sparks . Alex Burke , Ashanti, and others, have all tried at times to mimic the QUEEN. And each time its and utter fail and disaster.
And if you’re gonna sing about stompin in stiletos, wear STILETTOS not wedges. Yessss.
and CKB by Rihanna was better than this, emotionally. sorry.
Jordin you better WERK!
I liked the performance. I don’t know she seemed to boost more confidence. She better get it!
All the shade isn’t neccessary let her do her thing I like her she is sweet and talented 😀
Exactly!! For all the talk of her copying that other girl, at the end of the day, Jordin can get by with her voice and not have to relay on as Sam put it: ‘Weave tossin’, hip-shakin, and Naomi Campbell walking’~~
the song sucks.
I liked it 😉

EXACTLY! Jordin #SIT. If ur not gonna be urself!
Everyone’s channeling each other these days as artists…
sometimes I think they’re one big a55 gumbo soup… so much mixing and sharing of each other.
I’m singing acapella r&b

What an amazing performance! I’ve been listening to “I Am Woman” over and over again on her website. Great song!! http://bit.ly/kU74KR
Germany’s economy, Europe’s biggest, contracted by 5 percent last year, its worst performance since World War II. It has returned to modest growth, and is expected to expand about 1.5 percent this year.
