If you thought you’d never get a chance to see yourself in a Beyonce video, think again. As has been making waves all across the net, the budding Pop icon has teamed up with our friends over at Celebuzz to create an alternate version of the ‘Best Thing I Never Had’ visual.
The video, whose parent single just earned the diva her latest top 20 entry, is said to be gearing up for a ‘matrimonial makeover’ featuring fan footage and photos.
Learn the details after the jump:
Via Beyonceworld.net:
Fans can upload their wedding or prom video footage to YouTube and their photos to Flickr with the tag #BeyonceBestThing, through the August 12 deadline. The chosen submissions will appear on BeyonceOnline and Celebuzz and, of course, the upcoming ‘Best Thing I Never Had’ fan video!
Learn more at Beyonce’s official website.
In related news, fans who prefer to keep their eye on the ‘Diva’ herself can tune into Jimmy Fallon tonight at 12:35 am/11:35 pm central to see her perform the hit single backed by The Roots.

kl.. might upload ices fat ass
Yes Beyoncé you are a Icon/Legend, you made a fearless album, you didn’t give two shits about radio hits or number 1 singles, this is albums people would die to make, and we have pop stars who want to follow trends and put out fast food music, and yet they cannot sell above 200k lol. Beyoncé congrats on your 19th top 20 hit, we fans know it will hit the top 10. Your all about longetivety, your five number 1 singles have stayed number 1 4 weeks or more. And thank you for including all your fans into the video, you are amazing.
She should have a fan redirect the whole video altogether.
I live for the KING PERFORMANCES
I CANT WAIT FOR THE JIMMY FALLON PERFORMANCE
YAAAAS BEY! I can’t wait to see it.
Speaking of fan videos,Gaga should do an alternate video for Yoü & I with fan footage lol.
@KingB
Really?
LMAO @King B….right? S***, she should have called me up.
@Maya/TB
Hiya. How are you girlies? 🙂
Top 20 is special for Beyonce now?!
WTF
@ Renaissance Woman:
Yes.
@ The Kiddz:
I’ve already redone the whole video in my head.

@KOREANDREAM
Hey! and OK
the party’s here..even though im hella multitaskin right now lol
sounds interesting, it is good for the beyonce stans, but i would also like for her to put end of time or countdown out as the third single already, and do a an amazing video like run the world (girls), something we can dance to. i also hope that beyonce will be releasing a platinum edition of 4 next year like she did with IASF, since she did record like 72 songs for it, and please have more dance songs like EOT, countdown, and schoolin’ life.
@KoreanDream
Lol, what’s going on?
@Bey’Knight
Yup! I needed to put his s*** ass back on 😀
@King B
Oh, details! Paint the picture for me

@Kavion/@KingB/@Icon/@Bey’Knight/@TheKiddz/@YeaBey
I already told Kavion and Bey’Knight, but I was going to talk to you other 4 about a way to keep us all in contact aside from TGJ. It’s kind of a crazy idea, in my opinion, but some people on ATRL used this idea in the past and they keep in contact due to it. Anyway, my idea was that we could all get Tinychat accounts and use Tinychat to talk to each other. If you aren’t familiar with Tinychat, it’s basically a website where you can talk to people with text and/or webcams. Now I don’t have a webcam and neither does Kavion, so of course you wouldn’t have to use a webcam, but if you wanted to, I guess you could.
LOL, long rambling. But it’s just an idea because it’s another way to communicate aside from just TGJ.
It’s 7 AM here lmao. Isn’t it like the afternoon where y’all are?
This is so crazy! I was only expecting to talk to TrueBlue then all of you show up! If only Sam would. -_-
@KOREANDREAM
Oh well I don’t have a webcam but that sounds like a Great idea…
@Kavy
Well. I’m finishing packing all my things for the States. I’m now going to Texas for my half-sister’s wedding for weekend then flying to New York on Monday.
I can’t wait to go shopping over there. LOL.
@ICON
I’m good, I’ve been more low key lately. I could use some more excitement in my life right now, lmao.
a song has 2 be top 20 before top 10 so im proud of BTINH.4 is still in the top 5 snatching wigs.good 4 u beyonce

I tried to put it as my website but Sam didn’t letter me comment so that’s why it seemed like I randomly snapped.
@ICON
That sounds like a good time. It’s your first time over here in the states, right?
Get wild! LOL, I hope you have a lot of fun. 🙂
@Maya
Hmm… Sounds interesting. I will check the website out.
@ISTAN4GAGA
LOL did you make it? if you did, did you use photoshop?
@the kiddz
really? cus i thought u were tyrna do the opposite to blow off steam from ur s*** ass…lol
@icon
sweety, i just needed a sabbatical from TGJ, the haters were right there was Beyonce overdrive up in here
@all yall
any of u submitting material for alternate video?
btw we need some kinda group name lol, am too lazy (rite now) to type out everyone’s name lol
@Kavy
Yes. It is. I hope seriously can’t wait. I could I can’t stop smiling lol.
Also, why don’t you go clubbing. Live your life cause life is too short.

Also the video I don’t have time do anything like that at the mo.
@TB
How’s the New York weather?

LMAOOOOOOOOOOO. I love that pic.
@Yeabey
yes…I did….I used paint.net for most of it…the purple glow effect and semi gloss was done with photoshop….I’m an amateur at it lol.
@Bey’Knight
Lol, you’re too much 😀
@Kavion
What’s up?
Yawwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnn…. Really? B? Really? hai lol…
@ISTAN4GAGA
Let’s use that pic for all our avatars. 🙂
The video was too David’s Bridal, it felt like watching a commercial.
This is not Beyonce’s era, everything is garbage.
@BEY KNIGHT
Lol, I might, who knows. True Blue comes up with the best ideas.
@ICON
I’m happy for you! I’d love to travel, I want to see a lot of the world.
I know. I’ve kind of lost that enthusiasm & drive that I used to have, so I’m just trying to get it together. I want to live life to the fullest, you know? 🙂
I’d rather have an alternate version of the video altogether. Like instead of being all dresses up and peaceful more darker and edgy. Like kicking his ass out , like I’m Irreplaceable. LMAO. Now THAT would be good.
I was thinking about it lol….Also got one with a transparent background w/o glow & gloss but it doesn’t blend well.
@icon
hand on my heart sweety i wont again 😀 . heck i couldnt even keep my distance, my “sabbatical” was supposed to last until september, dulling myself lol

@ISTAN4GAGA
Oh I enjoy using photoshop as well….I’m at the intermediate level…lol
@ The Kiddz:
Some parts would literally require me to explain it with visuals, but I’ll do my best.
It would start out like this: Bey a few days before the wedding, seeing her guy embracing another woman, but obviously he doesn’t see his fiancee watching from afar.
Then it cuts to her flashing back in high school being asked by the football player to go to the prom. And throughout the video, Bey is in a maze-like garden singing the song with the story of the video being played intermittently.
And on the wedding day, she continuously has doubts while preparing for the ceremony. She keeps flashing back to her prom, where we see her and her date show up, have fun, blah, blah blah. Then her date temporarily sneaks off to the bathroom with another girl, thinking he’s not noticed, but Bey sees him, and follows them (she catches them doing the obvious, but does nothing about it at first). Then we’re back to the wedding scene where she’s walking down the isle, looking more and more scared. Just as the “I do”s are being said, she just stops and runs out of her own wedding. Then it flashes back to high school once more with her and her date being crowned prom king and queen. She pulls the crown off and runs out of the place.
(I’m kind of loopy right now, so forgive me if it doesn’t completely make sense).
Did B pass the milli mark worldwide with her album?
@Kavy
Hmm… well boy you need get that enthusiasm. You need push yourself out there. I mean you get jobs that you can travel the world. Like what do you want to be in a few years?
Wow. AutoCorrect is a REAL b****.
@ Icon:
Oh, the weather is still really hot, but a bit more bearable. It cools off to an ideal temperature in the evening, though.
@ISTAN4GAGA
I want a Rihanna one. That will get Sam mad.
@KAT DELUNA FAN
yes she did 🙂
@SweetyNatalie
Sam never gets mad. Either that or he’s super fake. I shade him all the time on Twitter yet he still talks to me nicely.
If y’all decide to make Tinychats add me! I’m KoreanDreamer.
@King B
That’s almost exactly how I envisioned it. The maze-like garden part is genius. Mine tended to be a little darker, I wanted a scene where she’s driving a car away from the wedding and ends up in a lake front, kinda like a Halo underwater scene. And she spends the video singing as a ghost seeing all the things her finance has done and how he regrets not being faithful.
Eh.
@ KoreanDream:
I just realized that your name is like what would happen if Katy Perry and Axl Rose teamed up for an album.
Good idiea for the vid.
@the kiddz
i got that exact phrase on twitter a while back, a tad freaky but hey at least im consistent 😉

@Kavion
I knew you would like that one. Hehe…I love Novacane and Love Crimes.
@ The Kiddz:
“That’s almost exactly how I envisioned it”
Whoa, seriously?
And your concept sounds more like an Evanescence video (which is a good thing!).
@ICON
I know…I’m trying, I just need that extra push, you know? Well, I plan on going to IADT for their Musical Production program. Then, I want to go to school for journalism. I just know I want music to be in my future. Maybe I’ll end up writing for Rolling Stone, lol. I just have a hard time believing in it, you know?

But the concepts (and endings) aren’t even similar, so people would be reaching by claiming she copied Katy.
@KoreanDream
so what’s the 101 on tinychats? is it like msn messenger?
@True Blue
i like your idea, i just wouldnt have her pull fastone on her partners at both prom and wedding. once woould be memorable enough for a lifetime lol. i didn’t even want the “cheating scumbag” storyline lol. when u say someone’s BTINH it’s really deep. i wanted her to play into that for instance her life flashng b4 her eyes, imagining what life would have been like had she ended up with him- maybe he maimed his wife and Beyonce ran into him at the hosoital or so am i making sense?
@TB
Yay. I can’t wait to get on Monday. I’m so excited to see the Statue of Liberty up close.
@Kavy
Believe yourself. Think postively that you will do well. How going are you going to know that if you never push yourself. Never think anyone is better than you or anyone is lesser than you. Just focus on yourself and your ambitions. And if you study to the best of your ability, you will always do well.
@King B
Yup! 😀 I was inspired by “Like You’ll Never See Me Again” and “All of Me”. We don’t really get to see a darker side of Bey, and I thought it would have been refreshing to see her in such a foreboding state, it would be a perfect contrast to a song that has so much confidence and sass. I would have cut the pointless lingerie scene and they didn’t do a good job with the Prom scene. The bridge was disappointing as well. Ultimately, the video was nothing more than extensive glamor shots.
coming right up….@icon
@ Kavion
It’s okay that you’ve missed me. It’s natural you would;) I’m all good here, chating away to friends. Wbu?
These new Gravatars are awesome! LMAO. Very creative (really, no shade).
@Bey’Knight
Yeah, exactly. All you do is go to tinychat.com, make an account, then add friends and when they’re online, talk to them in chatrooms. 🙂
@ICON
Thanks Nat, I really appreciate that. I just tend to count myself out at times. Like, “There’s no way this could work?”. I just sometimes think it’s too late for me to really use my abilities because I’ve messed up in the past. I’m trying my best to nice forward though & I have faith everything will work itself out. 🙂
@KING B
Damn, I feel you. It’s so unfortunate..
@DANIEL
I’m good, I’ve just be chilling, relaxing for the Summer. 🙂

You kinda lost me at the maimed wife part, lol.
@ The Kiddz:
I know. The video is visually beautiful, but doesn’t really tell the song’s story at all. It’s as if it were rushed.

@Maya
But you have to see from Kavion’s point of view. When people have setbacks in their past it does affect them mentally. Like they fell like they are not good enough and have self doubt about themselves. In Kavion’s case he just needs to believe him. It’s never too late for anyone who wants to pursue their dreams.
@Kavion
Np Kavy. Always think positively. 🙂
@Kavion
Cool, well i’m looking foward to christmas … did you know, theres only 149 days left till christmas day!!
@KOREAN DREAM
I know, but it’s just hard because I want to get a GREAT education. I flopped Freshman & Sophomore year, then did real good the next two years. So, colleges aren’t really jumping at the chance to have me. I just want to get it together, go to a good school where I can study something I love. I don’t want to grow up & be like, “What the hell happened?”.
I guess I’m just scared & I feel like I wasted a lot of time…I mean this is supposed to be the best time of my life right now & it doesn’t really feel like it..

BTINH is already PERFECT, It Fits the theme, & the mood of the song perfectly.
I think Bey should be already gearing up for the NEXT SINGLE End of Time, Party, Countdown. Summer is almost over!! :/
It should have gone:
1ST (Buzz/Hype/Performance) Single: RTW (with TIMELY execution: relesed the day of the BMA Awards)
Promo Single: 1+1
2nd REAL Single: END OF TIME & PARTY
3RD Single: I Care/BTINH
4TH Single: Countdown

No. Just no.

I followed you on tiny chat!
@I STAN 4 GAGA
Same here! I just want a huge African festival, that’s really colorful & big. I want it to be her best video yet.
@IStann4Gaga
But not dark. I want a bright desert video with just a few (not 2 like the IASF era, more) dancers. I want the EOT video to be kind of like the sand scene in RTW.
@Kavy/IS4GAGA
I want Bey to go Nigeria and film it. I mean she got the inspiration from the song from there so feels natural the vid should be there.
@Maya
I feel that way too. I like in Sasha Fierce when Bey released dual singles. It made that era more interesting.

push up on me, hard, rude boy, s&m, dont stop, whats my name?, shut up, man down, cold case love.***
Is anyone here on ATRL?
@Everyone
My current idea for the EOT video is as follows:
The video opens with the beginning murmurs in an African town. The scene is dark and all that can be made out are some buildings and a street. Think of the setting of the city being like MJ’s “They Don’t Care About Us” video. Not the same city, but similar structure and buildings. As the murmurs at the beginning of the song get louder and the instruments come in (with actual instruments being seen and played in street corners, just no visible people), the sun comes up and the city begins to be revealed. The buildings, colorful flags everywhere, but no people. Then you see feet at the top of a staircase doing the moves Beyonce did at the beginning of the EOT Glastonbury performance, but only feet.
The feet become easier and easier to see as the sun comes up, and there are intercut views of the other parts of the city. Again, no people. Then when the first lyric of “Come take my hand” explodes, the video cuts to Beyonce standing on a ledge overlooking the city and its beach, and the water. She is standing very high up, with grass and all sorts of plants (colorful) surrounding her). Then the rest of the song basically plays out with her on that ledge, walking around the city, dancing on the beach by the water, and in a desert as well dancing with a few back-up dancers (think RTW’s desert scene).
@IS4GAGA
You mean Safari on Apple???
@Kavy
I agree. I just hope she goes to Africa to shoot the video for it.
@ISTAN4GAGA
LOL, that would be hot though!

@Kavion
Yes! Festive is exactly what I want. A huge celebration.
@YeaBey
I LIVE for the Deja Vu video and its colorfulness so I’d be here for some similarities, lol.
@Maya
I love that concept. It seems like a very colourful video. She better give that type of video. Can you imagine a dark depressing video.
:deadbanana:
@Icon I know….
@KoreanDream that’s a really good concept.
mad house, breakin dishes, disturbia, stupid in love, hate that i love you, te amo…s.o.s, hole in my head, russian roulette.
@Kavion/@YeaBey/@Bey’Knight
Oh, to answer YeaBey’s question, once Natalie signs up tomorrow I think we should try to be on Tinychat nightly. Of course I don’t mean it’s like “be on every night” or anything, just something to keep us in contact aside from TGJ.
@YEABEY HATES KELLY’S FLOP STANS
Yeah I know. It’s really fun on there. I got a membership like TWO days before the registration thing happened. Your gonna like it alot once you get on.
whos that chick? only girl in the world!
@Icon I meant the safari,not the internet browser lol
@Natalie
I will kill her, lmao. End of Time is the most celebratory song on the album and I want it to be bright, glitzy, and colorful. Nothing dark or sad about it.
@KOREAN DREAM
I KNOW….and she better make the Deja Vu desert dance look wack in the EOT video

@KoreanDream
Oh, I just asked cuz Im on there but I don’t really communicate with too many people there yet since I don’t really know anyone, like I do here.
@Maya
Love your idea, i had one too, mine kinda borrowed abit from tarzan lol. i f u were thinking along lines of they dont really care about us, it’s not so much a city, i dont want it to look too modern u know, an earthy vibe i think would suit n i wish she’d rock african hairdo lke she did for that L’Officiel photoshoot
@ YeaBey:
You can see me? How can I find you?
@Kavion
Of course! It isn’t too hard, though. 😛
@TrueBlue
:deadbanana:
ATRL is hard to talk to people on very easily so Tinychat’s perfect. I’ll add you now! Make sure to add Kavion (K3van33), Bey’Knight (d4dammy), YeaBey (YeaBey), and me (KoreanDreamer), too.

Yay! Make sure to create a Tinychat and follow everyone, too. 😉
First tinychat tomorrow! :celestial:
HERE GOES BEYONCE PROMOTING AGAIN, AND WHERE’S KELLY ROWLAND? SMH! KELLY I CAN’T. I JUST CAN’T.
@Oscar
Oh, I’ve seen you around before! Yeah, being a newbie can kind of suck. You have to try REALLY hard to integrate into the community. It’s kind of annoying.
@KingB/@Kavion
First Tinychat will be tomorrow night! 😀
But anyway, did you guys hear about Kelly’s first week prediction? It’s so low.
@ KoreanDream:
No, what is it? And on who’s channel will the chat take place?
YES, it really is! I try to communicate with others but they kinda just ignore me…and I’m just like whooaa WTF? But I just remember I’m new so it’s gonna take time..
@O S C A R thanks
@KOREAN DREAM
When i saw those sales…I was so upset that I went on a little rant…I called out alllll of Kelly’s bandwagon stans who were only here for Motivation’s success and not Kelly as as artist..They bashed everyone’s album sales because they had a R&B #1 song…instead of being proud of Kelly (like I was) for the song’s success , the bandwagon stans were here dissing everybody(lady gaga, keri hilson, ciara, beyonce, rihanna etc)…I bought the album though …I give it a 3.5/5
I was sooo mad that I changed my username on here (current name)
Kelly reaally deserves better stans… all of the bandwagon stans who left will be clinging on to the next BIG THING and hope for them to outsell Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Beyonce…smh
@OSCAR
You kind of have to be a post-w**** to get noticed like I did. It’s so irritating. I hate feeling obligated to post a million times a day, but I feel like if I don’t, I’ll lose relevancy. It’s too much work and not enough fun.
@TrueBlue
75k.
No one’s. You just go online and if your friends are online you’ll see them on the tab.
@KOREAN DREAM
I was pissed. She deserves to sell more. The album was basic, but it’s solid. Keri sold 100K, why can’t Kelly? Smh.
@Kavion
It’s partially due to Keri’s insane promo. B**** was everywhere. I wish Keri and Kelly swapped labels. I like Keri and I’d even say No Boys Allowed is better than Here I Am, but Kelly has worked for years and years. She deserves to have a smash album for once and to have her own solo success, and Universal Motown just aren’t giving it to her.
@ KoreanDream:
OK, thanks.
And I bet that a certain someone will get blamed for those low sales because she performed on talk shows the same week the album was released.
@KAVION
it was during the christmas season aswell
kelly is doing just fine,she may be #2 so that’s great for her
@KING B
I thought the same thing but its not her fault…she has an album to promote too… so everyone will just have to deal!
@KingB
Of course. It’ll be annoying to hear that. Beyonce has an album, too. They both have to be on their grind, promoting, and bringing in the sales.
@KOREAN DREAM
Congratz in your placement in “THE TEA” On ATRL….
@KOREAN DREAM
Still, Kelly should have a devoted fanbase by now. They know her from DC, and Kelly was actually a lot of fans’ favorite group member then. She had a Number 1 single, great performance & had some urban hype.
Lay It On Me will do great on radio to, I think. Even better than Motivation. I hope she’s not becoming the urban Rih. Big, successful singles, not so big album sales.
@ YeaBey & KoreanDream:
Of course, but the hardcore haters who want to make Bey somehow responsible for every bad thing won’t see it that way.
@YeaBey
Thank you! I was so surprised, lol. I guess I have a reputation now for debating.
@Kavion
Chile, please. Rih is nearing 6 million in WW sales with Loud.
It’s so weird how Kelly came off of such huge success then bombed, though. I think Matthew had to do with that.
Lay It On Me is going to smash. I’m sure of it.
@TrueBlue
I don’t know how they can blame that on her, though. It’s no one’s fault except Kelly’s label and management. They have yet to promote her very well.
@TrueBlue/@KingB
I wish Kelly were going to be on the US X Factor and Nicole Shitzinger were on the UK one. Nicole is a budding star in the UK and Kelly could use the exposure. Nicole is dead here in the US. She needs to stop trying.
@ KoreanDream:
Nicole SHITzinger? LMAO, Was that deliberate?
And how is Matthew responsible for the album not doing well since he’s no longer her manager?
@KOREAN DREAM
You tried it! I clearly said the URBAN Rih, lol.
Don’t blame Mathew!
@KING B
That’s so true…..smh
@KOREAN DREAM
Yup that’s what everyone says on ATRL about you….lol
@KoreanDream
Yes I know exactly what your talking about! Everyone there posts like 100+ times a day. It’s not hard for me to get into, it’s just difficult getting people to listen. And it’s even harder cuz everyone there is sooo funny, you just wanna sit back and laugh, it’s almost entertaining..,LOL
@KingB
Of course! I am not here for Nicole at all. Her album was alright, but I’ve never liked her.
I mean I think Mathew was responsible for Kelly’s early failures.
@YeaBey
LMAO, kind of. I do argue quite often.
@Kavion
How is she the urban Rih?
Mathew HAD to be the reason Simply Deep bombed. Why else?
@Oscar
True. I post like 70 times a day right now. It’ll decrease a lot when school starts, though.
It is. I used to be a guest only and not have an account, and it was fun to read threads and not feel the need to contribute. Now I always talk. I think it’s all going pretty well on ATRL for me, now, though. The first few months were difficult, though.

lol I AGREE!!
@ KoreanDream:
How can you post 70 times a day on ATRL… seriously, even when I have days where I can do nothing but be on the computer all day, I can’t do that much.
Hey
*goes and reads comments*
@KingB
I post in EVERY single thread on the front page basically, and I respond to lots of people in popular threads. I haven’t been very busy, either, so that helps.
@ KoreanDream:
That still sounds impossible to me, lol.
@KingB
LOL.
Did you hear Adele has hit 10 million in WW sales?
*8.
@KOREANDREAM
July 28, 2011 at 7:51 pm
@KingB
LOL.
Did you hear Adele has hit 10 million in WW sales?
_______________
WITH 21 only or 21 and 19? because i heard she just crossed 8 million with 21
oh sorry you corrected yourself already….oops….lol
@ KoreanDream:
8 mil? Daaaaaamn!!! And there’s still five months left in the year!
4 in it’s 4th week is #4. <<<————- 🙂 🙂
LMAOOOO I FIND THIS SO FUNNY
When is the Fallon show on? In how many hours?
@ Kat Deluna:
12:35 AM Eastern.
@ Kat Deluna:
On NBC.
@KingB
I swear she’s going to double that by era’s end.
Sounds fun! The fan vids will allow her to work on her film directing/producing skills some more (if she’s the one editing them of course). We love B and B loves us…awww….it’s such a mutualistic relationship.
LOVING IT!

______________________________-
:O i never noticed WOW!!!!
@ Renaissance Woman:
She’s doing pre-digital era numbers in the digital era. With little promo.
That’s beyond amazing.
@KoreanDream
You really believe Adele will double her album sales…? If you don’t mind me asking, how so?
I seriously can’t imagine who’s still possibly buying/will buy her albums at this point, but maybe that’s just me.
Who has been the longest commentor on here???
@KOREAN DREAM- Y do u think its Matthew’s fault SD bombed??
@KingB
It’s mind-blowing.
@Van
She’ll hit 10 million by early October at the rate she’s going, since she’s selling over 200k each week. Then between early October and late December (album-buying season), I see her selling around 3 million because album-buying season is bound to increase her sales to around 300k per week (internationally), and that will definitely help her reach 13 to 14 million quickly. Then the Grammy’s will give 21 another wind.
@KING B
Thanks I am impatient.The album is climbing on iTunes.We come for so far with all the leaked album n stuff.All this is so unreal for me,I cant believe that the album is already on the top 10 of the best sale in the US. *tears*
@VAN
Adele will probably sell 15 millions in the end.She was already selling but the RITD success is the reason why the album is doing so well.I am happy for her even if it so annoying to see someone on top for that long.Taylor and susan boyle used to have this effect on me also 🙂
@VAN- I have da same feelinz about that Adele album- I kno wat she’s doin isnt impossible….. But who is really buying it????
@QueenBey
He was managing her poorly.
@Van
10 million by early October, 13-14 million by end of the year with holiday sales, 15-16 million with Grammy’s.
@KoreanDream
LMAO, yesss it’s difficult right now, but your advice helps! 🙂
@YeaBey
LMAO!
@QUEENBEY
It’s ridiculous isn’t it! But I guess people go single/get dumped everyday so that could it be it perhaps, the content of the album.
@KoreanDream
Oh yea, forgot about holiday sales… Dang. Well as much I’d like to see Beyonce on top, I have to give her credit for putting out such a deep, meaningful, and relateable album.
@KOREAN DREAM- Wat about the first part of my question???
*her = Adele*
@VAN- Im really not buying that….. I just dnt beleive it!!
Adele can sing BUT I just dont see so many normal regular ppl buying her album week after week…. I mean shouldnt they already have it?????
#SUSPECT
@QueenBey
I have no idea. I’ve been here since September and TrueBlue, TheKiddz, S***, AmazingLee, and Nicky were all here before me and still use the site. Kavion, NoneYa, Bey’Knight, YeaBey, and Icon all came after me.
@Van
They both put out fantastic albums so seeing both do well is great.
@QUEEN B
ALMOST 2 YEARS ALONG WITH YELLOW GORILLAH AND MANY OTHER
@ QueenBey:
There’s 7 billion people on the planet. So when you think about it, no, it’s not at all suspicious that 21 is still selling at this rate.
This sounds like a great idea. When you reach a certain level of success, it’s always great to get the fans involved. Go Bey 🙂
@KoreanDream
Agreed. Talent on top is how it always should be.
@KINGB
Agreed. And when you consider that artist “back in the day” used to sell 10+ an album with relative ease as and also consider that that’s the same demographic (Moms who don’t know how to download music illegally) she’s appealing to, it makes sense…nonetheless I’m surprised. Lol.
@QUEENBEY
Agreed. I would think the same thing. Considering she’s the NEW “it” girl, I doubt she has the “Imma buy 10 copies of this b****** album” stans. So ya I’m suspicious too…

@KING B- Understandable…… Ok I see ur point
I HEARD THIS STILL IS FROM THE JIMMY FALLON SHOW:

IF it is then I LOVE HER DRESS!!
AND THIS new weave is the business!
i saw a still of beyonce on the Jimmy Fallon show…if it really is a still then I love her dress and I’m loving her new weave…its like blonde but a little darker towards the back

BLEACHonce is done.
BEYHIVE JIMMY FALLON STARTED….
*waits impatiently for KING B’S performance*
BEYONCE killed it on jimmy fallon….let’s just say she “jazzed” it up a little…..LOVE IT!!! nbc put up the performance on their website before it even aired…hahahaha
She Looked Stunning.She’s hoarse though.I Love King B,she needs to rest.Promoting is important but rest is more important.
Atleast She Mentioned Kelly’s Album and told people to go and get it.Stating that its a nice album. Goodnight
Too bad I don’t have any footage, because I haven’t been to a prom or married, but it would be so cool if your footage was on the alternative version. I can’t wait for the 1+1 video.
SMH it’s a shame that Bey has already done video #2 and is readying an alternate video….. yet Kelly is still expecting to sell off one ONE video, ONE song, and ONE performance. Check out this video on how Kelly’s low album sales and bare minimum success are her own fault: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjNId9uags4&lc=AGA7Q-gccl1TTNS5nmiX8TBbmthNe7dbaA-dfQIA4a0&feature=inbox
Aw, this was an extremely good post. Taking a few minutes and atual effort to make a superb article… but what can I
