Whilst many have heralded Beyonce‘s Billboard Music Awards performance as being ‘epic’ and worthy of high praise, the 29 year old entertainer has come under fire for supposedly stealing the show-stopping concept from an artist named Lorella Cuccarini.
The showing, which saw the ‘Broken Hearted Girl‘ singer perform intense choreography alongside 3D imagery, has been labelled by some as a direct rip-off from a rendition put on by the Italian artist some time ago.
Breaking her usually silent stance on such topics, Beyonce has spoken out on the matter. Find out what she had to say after the jump…
*Updated w/ Sam’s 2 Pence*
Via AOL:
‘My makeup artist showed me the performance of Lorella Cuccarini a year ago, and it inspired me so much’, she went onto reveal ‘I then met with the talented people who worked on it. The technology and concept were so genius. Thank God for YouTube or I would have never been exposed to something so inspiring. I never worked so hard on anything in my life as that performance for the Billboard Awards’.
Check out the side-by-side comparison which has been doing the rounds:
Sam’s side note:
Needless to say, this is a non-issue. One, no doubt, fulled by the critics of Beyonce’s talent. At the end of the day, even icons such as Michael Jackson took concepts and reconditioned them into something bigger, better, and something they ultimately call their own. It’s also imperative to point out that Beyonce’s performance wasn’t just hailed for the “screen” or 3D imagery, it was praised for the singer’s work ethic, flawless choreography, and infallible ability to steal the show. That, my friends, cannot be taken away from her. Borrowed concept or otherwise.
Love it!
B**** BEYONCE IS ONE OF MANY WHO TAKE WORK AND MAKE IT THIER OWN….THIS IS A FORM OF ART IN SPAIN…THAT WOMEN WASNT THE FIRST TO DO IT! PEOPLE HATE ON THIS WOMEN BECAUSE SHE IS ON TOP! BEYONCE IS QUEEN OF MUSIC AND THE HATERS WILL DEAL B****! WHO RUN THIS MOTHA?
BTW THE SAME COMPANY DID BOTH PERFORMANCE! SO ALL YHU HATIN B****** STFU
Go Bey
ONE THING IS FOR SURE BEYONCES CAREER THRIVES ON YOUTUBE
FIRST SHE TALKS ABOUT HOW SHE GOT SINGLE LADIES FROM THERE
THEN TOFO TOFO WITH THEIR PANTSULA DANCE
THEN NOW THIS
SMH
OMG first! And art doesn’t come from a vacuum. Of course she was inspired and sought to bring a little seen concept to the masses. And nobody can take away how amazing that performance was. Nobody.
IM TIRED OF THIS WOMEN HAVING TO DEAL WITH SO MUCH…NOT ONLY HER BUT RIH,BRIT,GAGA,KATY ECT….HAVE TO DEAL WITH SO MUCH CAUSE PEOPLE HATE ON THEM….B****** GET A LIKE AND YOU WOULDN’T BE SO MISERABLE! GET YOUR S*** TOGETHER B4 YOU CAN JUDGE ANYONE ELSE! LIKE I SAID BEYONCE IS QUEEN, THESE OTHER WOMEN ARE DOIN THIER THING AS WELL! SO ALL HATERS STFFFFFFU!
I MENT LIFE* !
Bull #$$^ looks very different!! trying to take her shine away lol …..wont happen ! keep trying just make more buzz for her mean while she gets what she deserves be ICONIC!!!
I’m waiting for that moment when she does something TOTALLY original, but she definitely made it her own and it was an incredible performance!
So what about the BET awards in 07 or the VMAs in 06???? Riddle me that Stealonce!
well said @RLS “nobody” !!!
They have nothing else to say about the performance. They couldn’t say it was bad, because that is FAR from the truth. From now on Beyonce is to be known as Alopecia, because you f*** around with her and you’ll be a bald-ass b****.
BEYONCE IS GREAT, EVERY ARTIST NOW AND DAYS EITHER COPYS SOMEONES PAST WORK OR LIP SINGS. NO ONE IS REALLY ORIGIONAL BECAUSE EVEVRY THING HAS BEN DONE SO MUCH IN THIS DAY AND AGE. SO IF WE AS ARTIST LOOK AT PAST WORK AND CAN CHANGE IT TO FIT OURSELVES AND MAKE IT BETTER, I FEEL WE ARE STILL DOING OUR JOB AS ENTERTAINERS AND CONVEYING THE MESSAGE OF OUR MUSIC. AND ATLEAST SHE S BEING OPEN ABOUT HER INSPIRATION AND NOT HIDING IT.
I HOPE TO WORK WITH HER ONE DAY! I WILL RUN THE UNIVERSE NOT THE WORLD

She shouldn’t have even responded. She did the same thing for single ladies with the concept of Bob Fosse’s Mexican Breakfast. She had the best performance of the night and no one can take that away from her. POINT. BLANK. PERIOD. Nothing is 100% original in this digital age of music.
NO Originality Ever

” even icons such as Michael Jackson took concepts and reconditioned them into something bigger, better, and something they ultimately call their own.”
West Side Story, The Band Wagon starring Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse, Gene Kelly, The Dark Misfit…just to name a few. Beyonce has always been very vocal about where her inspirations come from. It’s funny how naysayers dog her for being “unoriginal” when she’s quite honest about her concepts, while they praise those who blatantly rehash others and claim they’re “original”.
Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”
Not surprised. Beyonce’s whole career has been based on copying other artists. How many cases have she got pending against her for copying? Exactly
Excellent response Beyonce. She took the original and made it her own but in my opinion that performance wasn’t epic as some of you would say, it was good but not epic!
LMAO
She is a JOKE!
All seh does is copy EVERYBODYYYY and try to take credit.
Fat @$$ h**
well one thing is for sure, she sho nuff don’t like wearing clothes anymore. boo you are about to be 30, u don’t have to shed clothing in order to compete with other artists of today. I guess your song “nasty put some clothes on” is a thing of the past. That’s what made me look up to you when I was younger. But now…idk anymore.
can this broad ever come up with her own idea,,ever?
oh please stans, give it up…..nobody is saying her epic perfomance sucked, but the fact that she copied it from somebody else, takes the epic part out.
the bish suppose to be the queen, the baddest chick in the game, and she cant never come up with her own ideas?
so whenever beyonce gets caought in the cookie jar, which is damn near every week, we need to give her a pass, because she had a fake epic performance?
this bish been stealling from people since she started her solo career, and her stans turn a blind eye, but be first to talk s*** about other artist.
well, she should have acknowledged Lorella Cuccarini for the inspiration of her number!
she fooled me by believing that she’s innovative!!!
oh well, isn’t she known for copying songs?
heres comes, ur a hater, shut the f*** up, die b**** die….
thats all the stans can say….cause the truth hurts like a mothafucker
then they gonna say, how much haz jazmine sullivan sold?
so f****** dumb and delusional
I knew ppl was goin to start sum s*** bcuz her performance was f***** EPIC- haters have too much time on their hands
SO WHY SAY THIS NOW beyonce???? u waited until u were exposed and 2. this is not the first time u stole a concept for an awards show.. sorry but not good enough.
ur a legend now, u shud be striving to be original as possible
LOL great performance? Yes she ripped it! BUT the performance was still the same as the other artist. There’s a HUGE difference from inspirational and copying!!! NEXT!!
I am glad she is finally starting to address the “controversies” as soon as they hit. Go Bey!
OH PLEASE. DA ITALIAN LADY PERFORMANCE WAS SO LAME. BEY SAID SHE WAS INSPIRED. ARENT WE ALL INSPIRED BY SOMEBODY? SO SHUT UP! MICHAEL JACKSON WAS INSPIRED BY ELVIS AND JAMES BROWN.
SORRY HATERS, BUT PPL ARE COMPARING HER TO MJ COZ SHE IS THE NEXT MJ!
ONLY GOD IS ORIGINAL!
And lmao at skunk mouthed beyondslut talking about being taught work ethnics. Your daddy sure taught you well.
The Story Behind Beyonce’s Incredible Billboard Performance” – Amplifier http://yhoo.it/lDqi2t
she’s nothing but a second rate trying hard, copy cat!!!
So I guess its safe to say McDonalds is goin to call Burger King out for stealing their concept of a cheeseburger……….F*** OUTTA HERE
Beyonce is such a shady loser who only credits her work when she gets caught.
ONE OF THE MOST UN-ORIGINAL ARTISTS & BIGGEST FRAUDS IN MUSIC HISTORY
BEYAWNCE THE FLOP
SAY WAT U WANT ABUT GODNEY,,,BUT U GOTTA ADMIT THE B**** IS ORIGINAL & HAS HER OWN SIGNATURE LOOK & STYLE
EVERYTHING THIS B**** DOES IS BORROWED..
BEYAWNCE THE FLOP!!
DUMB ASS FAKE ASS BAD LACEFRONT WEARING STUTTERING ASS BIOTCH!!!
The bigger the artiste become the less original they become.
@RLS & the kiddz
I agree with you both.
Beyonce’s performance is undeniably epic. She made it her own, so she owns it :-).
I must say that I love the way Beyonce’s more Bossy this time around. She’s passing out diplomas. She continues to share the spotlight light. She’s even more in control of her brand’s image, and I admire her for it.
I have to speak on this, Bey being compared to MJ is a insult. There will NEVER be another MJ. I so tired of ppl always saying, the next MJ or so and so, MJ made the music industry what it is today. What MJ did will NEVER happen again. One can hope and aspire to but…that’s my music industry is in the state it’s in now. But I’m just saying, stop comparing and just be who U are. There will never be another Janet, cause she’s Janet. There will never be another James Brown, because HE’s James Brown. As well for the artist today. Just be you!!
@RATEDXXX- Ur fave couldnt even handle da pressure from da music industry!!!!!! U better hope she didnt turn to drugs!!!!!!
the reason beyonce gets the most hate, is because of u stans….
u put that broad on a f****** pedistal, like shes perfect, like nobody can touch her, like shes the best singer, best dancer and everything she comes up with is epic, like shes the most original artist in the whole game…
you guys make her an easy target..
when in fact this bish haz zero original bone in her body, when in fact so many singers, songwriters has called her a** out for claimin she wrote their songs..
first you guys claim we’re a bunch of haters, so when we sho yall proof that shes a fraud, then yall say but madonna ass get sued , but laquisha a** down the street a** get sued, or maybe she didnt know the song belonged to somebody else…
bunch of f***** excuses……….
She is a loser afterall and what do loser do? They do low s***.
Taking from the past and taking something from what a b**** did last week is two different things.
@KYLE- Pill Poppin Britney is da BIGGEST FRAUD in da industry!!!!!!! The b**** NEVER sung live a day in her life……… not even in da shower!!!!!!
I’m tired of people coming after Beyoncé I swear….
Do people know that Michael Jackson STOLE “Mama-say-Mama-sa Ma-Makossa” from an African musician and the man had to sue him and won the case?
Nobody can be original everyday of one’s life.
The video is on youtube, how do you steal something which is on youtube in 2011? How?
Beyoncé is not innovative? FINE. But did you know about those graphics? Did you know a couple of other artists used it before Bey?
The good news is she actually exposing artists who don’t have her singing skills and good looks to be invited anywhere.
At least she’s trying to go deeper than just showing her body or lip sync like most of legendary artists did or do.
My point is: Take what she’s giving you or take your frustated a%s over someone else.
like i said, they bring up jazmine sullivan..
when in doubt, lets bring up other artist who can sing cirles around beyonce, and put them down,,
can u stan come up with somethin new? ooops my bad i forgot who yall stan for, the queen of no originality
So funny how Bey has to be so perfectly innovative and do something that no man has ever done and seen in our lifetime. This is just ridiculous when so many artist are lazy and offering recycled, uninspiring “creations” with no variation from the original at all(in their music and on stage). She didn’t steal a song or something of the sort, she used a concept. When Pink was spinning from a trapeze during a Grammy performance, no one brought up Cirque Soleil. It’s like too much time is spent researching the first person to have done everything Beyonce Knowles does. Let’s face it, she’s an amazing performer and these ideas are always 10x more impressive when there executed by her!

@mishka stop making excuses.. wer not talking about keri hilson or jason derulo. wer talking about BEYONCE.. shes been doing this 16 years now.. shes trained. she knows the game, yet she still steals from people.. SHE SHUDDA SAID THIS BEFORE. why is she waiting until she got exposed.
just because she performed BRILLIANTLY does not make copying okay.
Just because Nicki MInaj may look sexier than kim in a blue wig right now. does not excuse her copying Kim relentlessly… since when was biting acceptable

@blanco fam
my sentiments 100%. people are supposed to be stealing ideas from her not the other way round
Is it something new? She’s called the ” queen of rip-off”
the flop song is a ripoff pon de floor
the video is a ripoff many artists
the performance was a ripoff and wasn’t special at all. She looked so dumb with all those graphics and her yelling
Wasn’t she suposed to snatch wigs? Why isn’t her song #1 yet? It took too long.
As i said before. SHE FLOPPED. RUN THE FLOPS.
All the hype and promo for nothing. Where are her delusional stans. Ready to read some funny excuses.
@lese
she cant be herself, she copies everything, janet, michael, hell even the so call pill popping britney…..
i would be more impress if the broad actually came up with an idea on her own…
as long as her stans keep lettin her get away with it, shes gonna continue jackin folks
@Mishka Oh shut it.
Mj took words from an african song, which appeared throughout ONE TOTAL progression.
BEYONCE took a WHOLE concept from someone else.
Im not saying that its wrong or anything, but dont try to justify beyonces actions by bringing up something irrelevant and completly different from beyonces situation. Theres a difference between sampling something and taking ALL of something.
Really it just makes you look stupid. Just saying.
She is internationally known for stealing credits.
She changes one or two words in a sentence then says she wrote the song.
FLOP. RUN THE FLOPS. FLOP BEYONIC. FLOP BEYONIC. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINING.

___________________________________________
Why should Bey have said it before? When? Before starting her performance?
Contrarily to a lot of people, I don’t take Beyoncé for more than she is, a brilliant performer who managed to stay on top without “LOSING” herself in the industry. Creativity is a gift and a curse, it can turn into something really really bad and too much creativity ALWAYS turn into madness. Name me one single artist well-known and widely-acclaimed for his/her creativity who didn’t become a hollywood weirdo/junkie/freakshow/bipolar. Just ONE.
I really think Beyoncé doesn’t want to go there. She has “foundation” like she says. If not turning into a freakshow implies she rather borrow other people creations, FINE BY ME.
And I repeat, all the gimme-more-gimme-more whiners NEED to find someone else to give them that.
LMFAOOO AT THE HATERS 😛 BEY KILLED THAT PERFORMANCE & HATERS ARE MAD THAT SHE SLAYED THEY FAV!
THATS RIGHT BEYONCE!! SHE F****** OWNED THAT PERFORMANCE AND MADE IT HER OWN..I CANT BE MAD AT THAT..
Yeah…there’s copying but then there’s just flat out copying…she took damn near every move.
@Mishka You sound SO dumb right now.
Now the world is realizing that overrated fake b**** is nothing but a fraud.
she bought the grammies
she bought that fake millemium award…..LOL Millemium award????? MY ASS
It’s just the begining. Can4t wait for her flop album. She better outsell everyone. Why isn’t run the flops # 1 yet.

Hummm, look WHO is giving his two cents here…
Bey always taking something from someone. Oh well, it was a hot performance!
of course she waited till her a** got exposed to claim she was inspired, by the lady…
sh obviously thought her stans were to dumb to realized that she swagger jacked somebody
isnt what she always does, wait till she gets exposed than give people credit..
example..when she first dropped irriplaceable, she claimed while she was on the toilet, the words to the song started flowing..
it wasnt until neyo came out and said he wrote the whole song..then she give him credit.
the beyonce experiance tour, she claimed she directed itt,edit it all on her own…when the director of the video came out thats when she claimed she had help editing and directing the video

Well put…there is also an interview where the creater explains the bee didn’t even use a monitor (like weather men do) to make it perfect…he was blown away by her…and to be honest Bey did it betta an if anyone is to blame it shoul be the cretaer…if you hire someone to do a job and they change an old job an sell it to you that’s ba business…

How many times has madonna got called out for writing songs she didnt write? Oh thats right….she never has.
Dont bring madonna into this, I can go on and on. Madonna was not completly original, nobody is, but madonna has CREATIVITY. she dosent just THRIVE off of making other ideas her own. Thats why she’s momma pop. 🙂

nobody on here expects beyonce to be perfect, hell theres nothin wrong being inspired by somebody’s else work..
but to just copy and paste that person work, and claim u came up with it, thats y beyonce is getting all the backlash…
the majority of beyonces career consisted of copying and pasting of other peoples hard work..inspired my a**..
of course she waited till her a** got exposed to claim she was inspired by that lady..
thats what she always does, wait till her a** get expose, then give credit..
maybe she thought her stans were to dumb to notice she jacke somebody else perfomance.
@ARE YOU SERIOUS
MUAHHH
I know that the navy ain’t say nothing about Beyonce not being original. We still waiting on someone to give props that’s being sued by a certain photographer for s&m. I like Rihanna but nah nah nah come on.
Oh and @Mishka Madonna came up with her OWN ideas. Who thought of singing while hanging on a cross? Has that ever been done before by anyone? Ill wait.
Who thought of a m*********** scene in a performance? In the 80’s- mid 90’s though. Ill wait.
Who thought of a woman sliding down a pole naked for an opening of a performance? Has it ever been done before? Ill wait.
Who has recited a whole chapter from a book of the bible on a track? what pop artist? Ill wait. I can go on and on.
Please and thank you.

________________________________________
Just so you’d know, I’m a Madonna fan.
But one of the main reasons she remained on top is her ability to reinvent herself by collaborating and “borrowing” stuff from tons of people. And I repeat, that’s usually what veteran artists who have been around for a while do.
Did you know Madonna got sued for “Frozen” by a belgian composer? The composer won the case and Madonna’s label had to re-edit the song.
what exactly are we hating on?
because i swear the stans love to scream HATER, when ever beyonce a** gets exposed..
so I’m a hater for saying beyonce has no original bone in her body?
do i need to rmind you how many times the broad got sue for jacking somebody else s***…..
are we hating on the fact that she doesnt give other people credit, till her a** gets exposed?
are we hating on the fact that, the so call epic performance she give, happened to be done by somebody else?
if that makes me a hater..than
s*** ill be a damn hater
I think it’s just ppl associated with jay-z that have this problem with ppl. You know all of the lights, s&m, now Beyonces performance and I think they were trying to say even jay on a couple of things. I would like to see how original you negative nancys are. WAITING.

It’s funny how naysayers dog her for being “unoriginal” when she’s quite honest about her concepts, while they praise those who blatantly rehash others and claim they’re “original”.
Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ALL OF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You betta PREACH @TheKiddz!
STANDING OVATION! And that all that needs to be said about that!
The end.
This is so dumb!!! How is she suppose to acknowledge this before she performed, with a spoken work citation before the performance? Oh that’s right she didn’t copy anything, the media designers used their own graphics and have every right to re-work their own designs when seen fit! The same with the producers of the song!!
She brought it up because people clearly thought they were being “smart” by finding the video. I think it’s a dumb argument all together. This technology was virtually non existent in America. If she like the concept she has every right to contact the creator and allow them to make a show with her. I am pretty sure this wasn’t the Italian artist idea or concept either. She most likely saw a demonstration like Beyonce did and contacted the DESIGNERS!. She isn’t a media arts designer she is a singer, so clearly the Italian lady didn’t create it either. People spend years trying to elevate their work on a higher platform and partner with large artist like Beyonce to get there. It’s ignorant to assume anything else! You can say she borrowed this and that, but at the end of the day its like chemistry. You place pre-existing elements together to create something new. With alot of hard work she did that and you can’t take that away from her.
@Mishka
That case was a complete FRAUD. The songs didnt even sound the least bit alike. The only thing similar was a chord progression.
And thats not true either. Madonna did not get on top just by “borrowing” from others, she got there by hard work and creativity. Yeah, somethings she was inspired from others, but she did MAJORITY of her workon her own, like her Ray of light album, her american life unedited video.
And that ONE case, really? Do you know how many times beyonce has been sued? Come ON now.
Its pathetic how critical and jealous people are of her – its only because she’s damn near flawless in all of her performances….No stan, just an observation…
Beyonce is a liar if she was inspired why didnt she say it in her acceptance speech she got caught up jus a liar……………………………………………………………….

@KYLE STFU and tell Britney to stop lip syncing when she only on stage for 45 secs. Bey killed that s*** and all haters in herds that commenting on it knows she did. If the italian woman performance was this EPIC maybe we would have already known about this concept she look like she was doing a powerpoint presentation.
People acting like they know the woman in the video created and owned the technology behind the music. Everyone is inspired by others past ideas and try to take it to the next level lets talk about how artist like Britney Spears who don’t put no effort in her stale stiffed lip sync performances and Riri with the stripper pole dance routine which has been done before too, but nobody is talking about this because it wasn’t EPIC like Bey
its funny yall wanna call beyonce out..when rihanna and britney have not written a damn song in their life…neither of them can sing..britney is a controlled puppet..no soul

BEYONCE JUST GOT CAUGHT DOING WHAT SHE HAVE BEEN DOING AND THAT IS COPY OTHER ARTIST SHE CAN’T CREATE HER OWN STUFF AND THIS TIME SHE GOT CAUGHT BIG TIME!
I’d love to stay on this topic and show you all the receipts I got but I got my life to live.
All I’m saying is nobody is 100% original. Beyoncé ain’t no exception and no perfection.
If you’re a hater and you just don’t like anything about Bey, it doesn’t bother me actually.
But again, all the “I-want-her-to-give-me-more” whiners can go to bed and wake up in ten years because there’s nothing else better around right now. Go to sleep and maybe when you’ll wake up, Willow Smith or one of the Mindless Behaviour kids will give you what you want.

Beyonce is fake and all her delusional fans ate trailing in her foot steps! All her fans do is praise her and put her up on a pedestal like she’s just running the industry and every artist in it! All she is, is an entertainer..I see nothing so great about her! 95% of her fans are f****** that will defend her at all costs cause they wanna be just like her! There are other artists out that has wayyy better music than this suppose to be queen! All she do is get on stage half naked and shake her flat ass..she’s to old to be doing some B******* like that..no respect for herself! Hell she’s no comparison to MJ..he always came on the stage clean and presentable! Mariah Carey sold over 200 million records worldwide with just a mic and a voice! Get real..beyonce does all this hard work and her sell still aren’t great! If shes the QUEEN, why isn’t her song at #1???? And for that fool ” queenbey will always s*** on ur fave and leave them no option but 2 pout” you are pathetic, rude, ignorant, and self centered! Get a life cause clearly you don’t have one!

@madonnalover
i cant delusion at its finest
@MadonnaLover
You’re not grasping my point. Where was the so called “originality”? You’re criticizing one artist for the very thing Madonna did…taking a concept and making it solely theirs by taking it beyond the stratosphere.
Lady GaGa know damn well she wasnt born wit blonde hair!!!!!! And I think she seriously need to get a rhinoplasty- da b**** nose is SO BIG, she probably can inhale all da oxygen on earth!!!!!!
MJ was the epidomy of how to be inspired by something but take it to a whole new world. He didn’t duplicate stuff done by other recording artist, he took his inspiration from other forms of the entertainment industry like movies, magic shows, etc. Do your research people before posting dumbass comments. When you saw a MJ performance it didnt remind you of anything but HIM. I love Bey but she has no real identity as an artist because she direct jacks. How dare anyone compare any artist to the great MJ, the ultimate trendsetter and the greatest entertainer of all!!!!!!!!
@chrisj its not delusion.
I never said madonna was completly original. But there are infact things on there that are delusional. Madonna is not that B**** that site makes her out to be. That girl is a NOBODY, who thrived off of seeing madonns downfall!!! If madonna was the person she was made out to be on that blog, she wouldnt be here today.
@thekiddz Madonna’s video and choreography for vogue was an add on from the inspiration of the gay community. Beyonce took a whole CONCEPT of a performance done before. theres a difference.
Okay, its obvious that she was inspired by the previous artist. She said she worked with the designer of that concept video so what’s the problem? How is it a rip-off when the ppl who developed the idea and video for Lorella Cuccarini are the same ppl who worked with Beyonce on the RTW Billboard performance? A rip-off is what Rihanna and her team did to artist David LaChapelle.
@madonnalover
actually you did say was orginal and i quote”Oh and @Mishka Madonna came up with her OWN ideas” doesnt that mean she original?
idont understand yall can call beyonce on being fake but beyonce never copied anybody looks she stuck with blonde hair the whole time..i love madonna but if you calling beyonce fake..madonna is fake x2
Hating Ass Beyotches Kill Yo Self!!!!!!!!!!
@MadonnaLover
A whole concept? Funny, if you watched the performance of Lorella Cuccarini, isn’t she performing other artists songs? Where’s the originality in that?
“Madonna’s video and choreography for vogue was an add on from the inspiration of the gay community”
So, she took a concept and made it her own. Lol, I’m done.
@chrisj
She did come up with her own ideas.

And madonna was deeply inspired by marylin monroe. She LOVED her. She was inspired by her looks and fashion.
Of course, I know madonna is not original in all aspects. AT ALL. But I DO know, that she had creativity on her own. Its evident. Theres things she’s done that noone else has. And thats a FACT.
No matter what she do, that wack song aint gonna sell.
The ISSUE is that BeYAWNce once again is caught swaggerjacking someone elses art, vision, concept, WHAETEVER and her stans are there to say she’s the FIRST, shes’s a GENIUS, she’s LEGENDARY, she’s EPIC.. She’s the ONLY ONE. sit down
When You Finsh Investigating,Noone Can Do It Like She Can,even if they were the writter of it!!!!! She shouldn’t have explained S*** To You Hating Mofos!!!!! Get That Paper!!!!!! F*** The Haters!!!!!!!!!
@thekiddz
The point is NOT the song lorella was singing, it was the visuals….
You are not getting MY point, and apparently im not getting yours, so, im moving on to another post..
@MadonnaLover
YOU CAN DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH! It’s been noted time and time again how many times Madonna has been sued for copyright infringement!
And EVEN with all of that, it still doesn’t change how great Madonna was at being creative and making things her OWN. Although I’m not a fan of her as an artist, I still respect her music, image and the visual aspect of her artistry. She is inspired by others and borrows just like every other artist. She is no more or less original than any one else. She is just another example of an artist taking inspirations and because she’s so big, she has to deal with people constantly suing her for really no apparent reason. It’s just how the game is played in the industry for an extremely successful artist.
@ Part Of The Blanco Family you sound really stupid and ignorant
@Are You Serious so just black people like Bey because in her tribute video i saw more then black people, your racism is so disgusting and ignorant just shows why you say the stupid things that you do.
All artist ideas come from other art forms and life even MJ was inspired by James Brown and Fred Astir luckily for him his haters didn’t have youtube back then.
@Nikki!!!! You’re A Damn Fool!!!!!! Have you checked itunes,its Already selling and when the album drops it will be triple platinum. F***** Hating Ass
@MadonnaLover
I’m getting your point fine: Madonna took a concept and made it hers due to her inspiration of the gays, she’s so original. Beyonce took a concept because she was inspired by a performance and re-created it to fit her style, but she stole.
@amazinglee
Hun, I never said madonna was completly original. I do agree with what you said, but Ive never seen beyonce come up with an idea on her OWN! Madonna has, several times. I provided you with proof. Several concepts like live to tell live at confessions, the erotica opening, the beast within, the like a prayer concept. These things had never been done before by a pop female artist.
Im not trying to hate on beyonce. Im really not. I think she’s a brilliant vocalist, and an awesome performer, however until she can prove to me, despite all the useless sueings and accusers that she can come up with something on her OWN, I wont have as much respect for her.
If youtube was invented in 80s then artist like MJ, Madonna, Janet, Whitey would have to deal with dumb ass haters like Bey, I swear people have way to much time on there hands making these videos these are our stalkers of the world
@KYLE
you mean to tell after that fake billboard award that they made up because bey is flopping off the charts,
the bish still hasnt gone to number 1?
you mean to tell me after that EPIC performance, she still not number 1?
hell even gagas and brit first single manage to break records within days of release…..
wat wig is she snatching again?
of course the album is gonna go platinum…the bish is gonna re release that s*** at least 3 times, just sp people can think that her album did good
@thekiddz
Okay fine. Your right.
The situations are similar, but madonna has still done things no other pop female artist have done before. Beyonce hasnt.
Madonna is innovative and creative. Until beyonce can prove that to me that she can come up with a concept on her OWN, like I said to @amazinglee , the arguement will still be the same.
^^^And do what sing live in an aquarium full of water?
Beyonce has raw talent to pull that s*** off, she had to study and mimic the dance and concepts. Its not like she ripped it apart and tried to call it her own. She worked hard it looks good and she gave credit to the original personal who innovated the show.
@MadonnaLover
So you’re basically saying that Madonna’s lawsuits are cancelled out because she’s came up with other creative concepts, but Beyonce’s lawsuits still matter because you think she hasn’t came up with her own creative concepts?
Both artists have been inspired by others in some way or another, but only one can be respected because……………………
@thekiddz ? What are you talking about.
@amazinglee
UMM..NO. What are you talking about? That is NOT what I meant in the slightest!!!!
I know that both beyonce and madonna are not completly original. But madonna has done things that NO other pop female artist has done in the PAST!! Im not talking about lawsuits cancelling out because of that. Im just saying that despite all the lawsuits and borrowing madonna has been creative and HAS DONE things original. I havent seen beyonce do something original yet!
everybody copies somebody..so there is nothing new here really..They already sending out Free test models of iPad 2..but ONLY if you live in United States..i got 2..sent 1 to my mom house & 1 to my dorm..lol http://goo.gl/P8NE8
@Madonna Lover
What I meant is, is that want you want her to do: Sing live in an aquarium full of water. I haven’t seen that been done, yet. What about her “Deja Vu” performance at BET or her “Sweet Dreams” performance at the MTV Europe Awards. Her Ave Maria performances. You do realize there are COUNTLESS amount of artist out there: Korean, Japanese, American, Canadian, European, African, etc. I haven’t seen anyone do anything original, because I listen and watch a good majority of what these different cultures represent and have to offer. I’ve seen Japanese artist take concepts from American artists and completely blow them out of the water and they are not criticized for it.
Some of you people are really not getting the point. Are you?
There’s no problem with taking things and then making them your own. Yes, Madonna was inspired by the black gay dancers doing vogue, but that’s because she knew these dancers too and even put some of them on her tour, they learnt the moves to her. She never once said that they were her own idea. She made something from the underground popular and commercial, that’s what EVERY good and talented artist does. And Beyonce is doing that here too..
That aisha site someone pointed out is ridiculous though, in fact, aisha’s known to be a mental patient. There are HUNDREDS of actresses who paid homage in photoshoots like the marilyn monroe thing, in fact, marilyn monroe herself was almost SUED by jean harlow for identity theft, because theyre BOTH actresses and looked almost exactly alike.
What Madonna and MANY OTHER celebrities have done however, is recapture photoshoots, just a few months ago Scarlett Johanson and Lindsay Lohan challenged Madonna in a photoshoot, NO ONE is calling those actresses copycats, because it’s so obvious that they’re just challenging them, like a homage. Madonna did that many times with Marilyn and a few others, in fact, she embraced that and named ALL her inspirations, but the difference is: Madonna never took the idea of a look and used it for herself as a real image for a while, she just used some looks for a stupid little photoshoot, there’s a difference between that and actually using the exact same look of another artist in the same medium (like a singer) and pretending that its your OWN creation, kind of like what Lady Gaga is doing with Madonna (from the Alejandro period till Born this way) the shorter hair, black suits, the heavy red lipstick, dark makeup, the ponytail, it all screams Madonna, but the difference here is that lady gaga says it’s all her own, while when Madonna challenged a marilyn look (even just for one event when she did a marilyn thing for SNL, so its OBVIOUS that she did it for a joke) she ALWAYS talked about marilyn.
I just wanted to point that out, because clearly people can’t seem to tell the difference between a homage and actual identity theft.
Name one thing of originality that Beyonce has done – Non
@MadonnaLover
That’s exactly what I’m saying, sweetie. We’ve established that both artists have been inspired by others and they both have lawsuits, yet Madonna gets a pass because YOU think she’s done things that no other pop artist has done, while YOU think Beyonce hasn’t proven to come up with her own ideas. Therefore, giving Madonna her respect and not Beyonce. This is what YOU’RE saying, not me. I just don’t think what you’re saying is justified.
there is NOTING NEW UNDER THE SUN
if ya.ll were smart you would know that
sayin
if your hating ya.ll just jealous ya must
be i ain’t got time for hate
i would rather congratulate
ya.ll should work on makin
you happy instead of tryin to bring down
beyonce
cos i am sure she done more than
ya.ll with her life lol
@P I LOVE YOU!
@thekiddz I understand that…I do. And you are over exaggerating a bit, with the under water thing. However, I dont think my opinion will change. I just WISH that beyonce could sit and think through and make up an concept that has something not taken from others. its possible! Beyonce can do it, she has the creative mindset. people are upset with beyonce because she constantly recycles ideas. We just want something new and creative. Not something that we’ve seen before.
@amazinglee We will just agree to disagree.
Theres no way we can prove eachother right.
@MadonnaLover
Lol of course I’m exaggerating, but you have to admit that would be a spectacle. And I honestly haven’t seen that “Powerpoint” performance, so it was new to me. But, I do get where you’re coming from. It’s just that whether it be original or not, we are leaving in an era dominated by technology. People will find a way to downplay the girl’s talent, when we know that was easily her best showing to date.
Anyway, this Madonna talk got me in the mood to listen to her. *Plays Frozen*
At the end of the day, Beyonce’s perfomance at the Billboard Awards, as a whole, is authentic , original, creative, epic and so on.
SHE ADMITS HER SWAGGER JACKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The BET performance you mentioned has me jamming to deja vu,
Its no hate here girl 😉
I like beyonce, but as some one pointed out to me,
this aint the first time she’s been caught coping some one elses rutine,
so how many times are fans gonna let her get away with this.
so many haters out there keep saying she’s un original, I dissagree and try
to defend her, but in the long run I look stupid becuase she keeps doing it.
in this case she pulled a double, she not only sampled the song, but she sampled the performace too? she has totaly reached a new High, and thats pretty low.
I CAN’T WITH THIS FLOP IMPERSONATING ME!!!! IM THE REAL KYLE SMH
Madonna is dissimilar to Beyonce. Even though she is not completely original, at least she did something original. She was the first artist to include blasphemy in music videos. Also, she has trademark qualities which represents her. Beyonce on the other hand, has yet to present something non traceable to someone else’s work. All of her musical qualities existed before her.
Beyonce fans would make excuses for her even if she killed someone on video. They are the only ones who cant see past this cult madness they signed up for. Beyonce is clearly stealing ideas from others, this same thing happened with Bob Fosse.
Beyonce can say what she want to say but the pictures don’t lie,she straight copied GaGa and that is truly pitiful! I used to be like you fans who make excuses for ole girl but I can’t get over her desperation which is sad because she does have talent…..
yes it,s bay so when she takes something it,s inspired,but if it was someone else who did it
it would be a copy,man people is so bias you now what i am done with this,it,s Bay she can walk
on water.[no hate to her though just pointing out how bias people is]
To be honest, Beyonce is a dishonest human being with no dignity. This has been like the 20th time she has been called out for plagiarism yet she still continues to do it in a blatantly way. Since she is doing this without her father, I am starting to believe she was the one behind all of those unethical actions and not her father.
The performance was hot but Beys been swagger jacking for yrs. From DC3 copying things The Legendary TLC has done on stage to Us Weekly & Star doing a side by side comparison of all the styles and hairdos she stole from J-Lo. From Neyo calling her out about not writting Irreplaceable. And she stole the robot performance from Kyle Minogue. She is not the next MJ..we have that already and her name is Janet Jackson.
Bey definitely copied Lorella Cuccarini!
Stop trying to pull her down. BEYONCE! 😀
This 3D imagery isn’t anything new anyway.
She put her own twist on it.
Shut The Hellup and Get You Some Millions!!!! Lol Broke Ass Haters!!!!! All artists are inspired from other artists.What are you Haters doing with yourselves Everyday Besides investigating when Bey washes her ass.STFU!!!!!
THIS BEYOCH IS STALKING YOUTUBE FOR INSPIRATION!!!!!!!!11
SHE IS BEING INSPIRED BY PEOPLE YALL WOULD CONSIDER “LESSER” THAN HER.
BECAUSE OF HER, THE REAL ARTISTS ON YOUTUBE AND SUCH WILL NEVER MAKE IT BECAUSE THIS COPY CATTING COW IS TAKING CREDIT FOR WHAT SHE SEES OTHER PEOPLE DOING.
B**** GTFOH
SO??
WHO CARES about some random Italian H**??
Bey DONT CARE & neither do I!!
Respect Greatness and Good Talent instead of Hating On It!!!!!! Good Damn Day I’m not wasted anymore time on here today,You Haters Kill Me Hating On Everything About Beyonce!!!!! Jealous Asses!!!!!! Lmbao
so…i guess nobody’s gonna talk about MICHAEL JACKSON stealing the moonwalk, and passing it off as his in a book and a MOVIE…when shalamar did the moonwalk, in america, on television 4 years before MOTOWN 25! and Michael NEVER gave credit…but y’all don’t really wanna talk about stealing!! smh…at least bey gave some admitted her inspiration! smh…
BEY STANS BROUGHT THIS ON THEMSELVES. THEY ACT LIKE SHE’S JUST OUT OF THIS WORLD. HER SINGLE ISN’T A TOP 10 HIT, AND NOW THIS PERFORMANCE IS COMING UNDER SCRUTINY, IT STILL DOESN’T TAKE AWAY FROM HOW GREAT SHE DID. BUT IT DOES MAR THE OVERALL ASPECT OF IT, FOR PEOPLE THAT THOUGHT IT WAS AN ORIGINAL IDEA. STANS CALM DOWN SOMETIMES AND PEOPLE WON’T TAKE THINGS SO PERSONAL, WHEN Y’ALL ATTACK OTHER ARTISTS THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE WILL DIG FOR.
@PZ you are plain rude and disrespectful, keep Michael’s name out of your mouth and you people need to stop even mentioning Michael’s name in the same breatth as this phony, if it is not the video, it’s a song, its the writing credits, etc. When will she have an original thought? oh that’s right she is as dumb as a rock so the answer is never.

@killyaselfhaters Yeah i was praising her, but doing this.. hasnt done herself any favours… Thats not called hating.. thats a fact. I dont see why you bought Taylor into it…. Now whos hating? Yeah you.
@PZ
WTF ARE U TALKING ABOUT, MJ DID GIVE CREDIT U DUMBASS.
ALL IN INTERVIEWS HE SAID IT WASNT HIS.EVEN IN HIS HOLLYWOOD STORY THEY HAD THE DUDE WHO TAUGHT HIM HOW TO DO IT INCLUDED IN THE SEGMENT.
DO I HAVE TO POST LINKS FOR YOUR DUMBASS????
BEYAWNCE IS NOT ORIGINAL. DO NOT COMPARE HER TO MJ,MADONNA, OR ANYBODY ELSE GREAT BECAUSE SHE IS NOT GREAT.SHE DOESNT EVEN TRUST HERSELF TO CREATE SOMETHING SPECTACULAR WHICH IS WHY SHE HAS TO COPY AND HAVE OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE REAL TALENT CREATE THINGS FOR HER.
Beyonce fans can’t have it both ways ..if this was anybody else they would be dragged…….yet they want to make excuses and call people haters when they are always the first to comment and drag others …….f*** that all of you b****** are getting dragged today
I skipped all the comments to say SAM YOU BETTA SAY DAT!!! Plus although it was very similar it was STILL different and the choreo made it even better, Lorella was doing the damn two step, it was nothing spectacular about that other womans performance so if you ask me Beyonce only made it better.
@KILLYASELFHATERS shut the f*** up you sound like a fat black b**** who want to eat beyonce tired unoriginal p**** fact is she copied h** and you know it another fact is you want to be beyonce big bad body b****, I can tell you have down syndrome by the way you capitalize your words you dumb speacial ed h**. I hope somebody kill your ass stupid illiterate b****, I bet 100 big ones this b**** is 200+ pounds lol I bet you a lonely ugly b**** too
@KILLYASELFHATERS b**** you still here I thought you said you wasn’t going to waist any more time here lying ugly ass b**** fact is b**** you got NOTHING but time because b**** you don’t have a man, your fat, you stay hidden in the house because you look un human I bet you look like precious look at how you type you must be a high school drop out lol ghetto fat black b****, Beyonce copied that s*** that Italian artist my was only doing the 2 step but she did this s*** in 2010 Beyonce late ass just brought this s*** to the US and fact is the is US is late on everything!
Beyonce fans only comsist of ghetto black females, gay men who wants to be her , transexuals and insecure women who are either fat or lonely and use her music for work out inspiration they stay booed up with Beyonce’s music on all them lonely nights.
Beyonce is officially the queen of copy! She gets inspired so often, therefore the title ‘queen of copy ‘ suits her better than the term ‘artist’.
@AYISHMOORE LOL YOU ARE SO RIGHT
PEOPLE DONT COPY FLOPS.
U NEVER SEE OTHER “ARTISTS” COPY BEYAWNCE
PEOPLE DONT COPY FLOPS.
PEOPLE ONLY COPY SOMETHING THEY WISH THEY THOUGHT OF
BEYAWNCE’S NEW NICK NAME IS FLOPPY COPY.
Beyonce has nothing on Lady G, Lady G’s talent is endless I mean she has songs on itunes hot list thats not even a single yet and she is promoting herself like crazy Lady G is original and all this about her copying Madonna lol please thats far from the truth I hear no similarities and I paid for Lady G’s album by the way the album is f****** sick! I will burn Beyonce album on cheap disc and give them away to the poor ghetto kids for charity.
“Headlining – Beyone, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber and Rihanna!”
..With names like that, you’d expect that Billboard Awards Show to be setting all manners of Ratings Records, right?
WRONG..!! That Billboard Awards Show ONLY drew 7.88-Million 3.0 Neilsen rating 18-35.
Here’s the link, have a read – http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2011/05/24/sunday-final-ratings-billboard-music-awards-celebrity-apprentice-funniest-videos-family-guy-american-dad-60-minutes-adjusted-up/93754/
(Oh, just to offer you a perspective, CBreezy’s DWTS appearance drew 19-Million, and his Feb 12th SNL appearance drew a 3.0 Neilsen (18-35))
Like it, or not – Beyonce is fading. Rihanna has already faded, and Oprah Winfrey has one foot firmly-planted in oblivion…and we’re all better off for/from it…!! ; – 9 (wink)
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT..!!
its the exact same show just p-poppin’ to run the world and occult references ie transhumanism. that makes it better? whack & the need to justify using it proves, not admonishes the guilt. its fine bgk – most people think you’re great from compromising the intellectual property of others and labeling it as genius of your own.
that’s cool…. i’m going to go grab my oil based paints and completely copy van gogh’s starry night and make the moon full instead of crescent and pass off the genius as my own. i should then be considered the best/your fav/icon/the king right!!! right?
She’s a M F RIP OFF!
Hahaha Beyonce fans are mad as hell that she has been caught copying and stealing other artists image(tina turner )stage performances,songs,videos,etc.Stop comparing her to MJ she’s never going to be on his level.It’s True artists gets inspired by each other but,the difference between MJ and Beyonce is that he takes a piece of what they did and maximize it.Beyonce steals the whole damn concept and doesn’t maximize it.Somebody made the arguement that mj stole the moonwalk…no he didn’t he was inspired by the backward motion from the kids in the hood,perfected it,named it the moonwalk and then placed the move at the breakdown of billie jean which maximized his own original performance.Lastly,mj created his own sound ,moves,video concepts,and image so stop comparing that swagga jacka to him haters.
MJ>>>STEALyonce
What makes Beyonce look guilty is she only talks about her inspirations or being inspired when she has to speak about it. Theres nothing wrong wtih drawing inspiration but she just needs not to act as though she created things that she didn’t.
Let me just inform MOST of you guys who do not seem to know that Billboard updates their charts every THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!! so for that fact..the position of her single will not change until tommorrow…some people are so ignorant….we all just love to hate beyonce..beyonce never stated that she created this performance..the fact is that she wow’d us (as she always does) to the fact that we ASSUMED that it was her own creation…and its funny how everyone(including haters) seem to know EVERYTHING about beyonce’s so called ‘faults’..like damn..if u dont liek the girl..why do u take out time from your life to investigate and make a case on her so called “unoriginality’…
Thank you RYCH u took the words right out my head..these ppl need to quite ….they jus dont want her to shine..but guess what all this hating makes her the top hated rather u like her or not she will shine from hate..her talent as a real artist and singer/performer..so either way she wins…deal with it
@ The Kiddz:
Your first post said it all, and you said it so eloquently. I REALLY don’t understand everyone’s obsession with originality these days. All of a sudden you have the Originality Police coming out picking apart everyone for not innovating everything they do. I think some people have waaaaay too much time on their hands.
oh and by the way..#TEAMKELLYROWLAND!!!!
Oh Lord, Haters …………..Its funny too. these people probably thought Michael jackson created the moon walk…
Beyonce’s whole new album is gonna be full of samples.Her videos are gonna be like something we all already saw on youtube…lol.She will most definitly flop now.Bad song and video to match,then on top of that a copied performance…….daaaaamn bey.
MJ=G.O.A.T
Aish Kiss My Fat Black Juicy Ass H**!!!!!!! When You Poor White Trashy Trailer Park Racist Tabacco Chewing Drugtaking Beyotches Get Thru Beyonce Is Rich Beyotch So All Of The White Trash On Here Can Kiss Her Ass As Well!!!!!!! Stop Taking Drugs You F***** Junkies
Beyonce is always STEALING
She is just not that original that is why I say everything he does I have already seen it b4 that’s because she always stealing he really needs to stop. Legends icons don’t steal they set trends.
And don’t you ever compare her to the GREAT MJ! Never will she be in his level.
Would this chick ever stop lying? Every time she’s caught up in her b******* lies, she go trying to do damage control by telling people how she was inspired by this and that. This person and that person. Who gives a s*** if she was inspired? There is a huge difference between being inspired, and completely ripping off the ideas of others.
Beyonce is fake, and she needs to get some damn originality for a change and stop stealing other people’s work. I don’t even see how many people still can’t see through this fraud.
Her bogus personality, and work will soon catch up to her. It is already starting.
Noones Mad Because We Will Continue To Support Her!!!!!! So Go Suck A D*** Because You Stink Wet Sour Muts. Are The Best At It!!!!! Lol!!!!!! Hate Black Success!!!!! Sounds Like A Personal Problem!!!!!!! Noone Cares What You Think!!!!!!! Whatever You Say Don’t Matter!!!!!! Get A Damn Job,get out of your momma house.Get off drugs,lol!!!!!!! Who Run This Motha!!!!!! Lmbao Beyonce Killed You Beyotches and Her Fans Will Bury You Worthless Ingrates!!!!!! Lmao!!!!! Who Run This Motha!!!!!!! Lmao!!!!! Beyonce Needs To Continue To S*** On You Beyotches!!!!! Poor White Trash!!!!! Stop Hating Greatness!!!!!!!!!
WTF??? How did Beyonce steal the concept when Lorella had no concept. She just had a bunch of different graphics that didn’t go with the remake she was singing.
Ok, now there are times when I know Im being completely bias. But those performances look nothing alike. SMH at ppl. Lorella stood in one spot and was the only one on stage. Beyonce moved acrossed the stage, had coreography and about 10000 dancers. HOW IN THE HELL WERE THESE 2 PERFORMANCES alike?
And because a few of the same graphics were used, her performance is some how not as great?? Really?
And stealing writing credits, means that she doesn’t give credit to the writers. BEYONCE HAS NEVER DONE THAT. Now does she include her name somewhere, of course. I think thats an understanding that the writers, producers, and beyonce have.
And of all the lawsuits, how many has beyonce and her team actually lost??? I’ll wait 5 months for yall to do the research and answer that question.
Ohhh, and WTF you mean should have said this before-hand. The performance was 2 days ago, she hasn’t been interviewed or asked about the performance, so she didn’t have a platform to say where the idea came from.
And did anyone see what the graphic designer said:
“Kenzo admits that Beyoncé’s team was initially inspired by a similar performance by Italian singer Lorella Cuccarini. “[The Cuccarini artists] are awesome and do incredible work as well, but there are a lot of different inspirations for where our piece came from,” he said.”
“That’s the thing, it’s very simplistic. If anything, it’s a great example of how great of a performer Beyoncé is. It’s just a bare white screen. It’s a technique in video art since the ’80s in terms of frontal projection and interactive things. That’s really nothing new. It’s not even a new technology. It’s just an incredibly simple, awesome storytelling device, and with a performer like Beyoncé it becomes incredibly powerful.”
““She is an absolute monster, she nailed all of her walks — she just knows it,” Kenzo says. “Her muscle memory, her performance, she doesn’t need guides. She just needs to practice it a couple times and it’s done. There was no visual guide. Her eye line was straight into the crowd, engaging the crowd. That’s just her amazing abilities as a performer.”
WTF??? How did Beyonce steal the concept when Lorella had no concept. She just had a bunch of different graphics that didn’t go with the remake she was singing.
If Lorella had no concept then where the heck did Beyonce draw her concept and inspiration from, really as far as art goes, i didn’t really see what that had to do with Beyonce’s song, she just wanted to wow everyone with something that she thought they hadn’t seen, still her performance was spectacular, and she did a great job, she was proficient, and sharp. She did her thang. She was on point with everything.

LMAO!!!!
I’m glad that she did address this issue. There’s a huge difference between inspiration and copying; some don’t seem to understand that, though.
@TheMan
You must be insane. Their were worlds, cities, animals, and militaristic symbols included in the projection. That all has a ton to do with the song.
How many pounds do your junkie redneck peckerwood as weigh.Heroin using unemployed white trash.You Crackers have nerves calling Beyonce a thief and you Crackers have always been the 1st thieves.Taking credit for all of the Black peoples inventions.Wildchild take your white ass somewhere and bendover and finish getting f***** in your ass B****!!!!!! You racist crackers wanna take it there let’s go.Funkin Honkies! I wished I could hand you white B******,beat you ,burn your churches and houses down etc; Trust me the feelings are mutual.I’m glad she didn’t marry one of you peckerwoods.Suck A D*** f***** Klu Kluks!!!!!!! I will s*** on you just like Beyonce has.White Beyotches
Love your side Note Sam, so True!
You H*** Were Mad after we got a Black president too!!!!!! Lmbao!!!!!!!!!! Suck A D*** You White Poor Trash
@SHESDUMB
If that was true that the real artists on youtube will never make it, then Why did Bey reveal Two (a set of twins) dancing from Youtube to the world in her new music video,etc?!…………I think that means they made it, Bey called them or her people and now their even more a hit.
*****All the haters need to admit they are under cover fans! If your not, then STOP posting about an artist you claim to hate; act as though they dont exist in your world.
sorrry but beyonce is now our michael jackson. every new artist look up to her… everyone of them!
GTFOH!!! If this were Rihanna, this post would read entirely differently!!
Yes, Beyonce did a PHENOMENAL job performing this piece she STOLE (yet, AGAIN) but let’s be real here, trying to compare her to Michael Jackson and others in an effort to justify your “stan”dom is more than a stretch. Beyonce is a hell of a performer, but what’s interesting is that you continue to call her an innovator when it’s clear to anyone willing to admit that truth that almost every single thing she’s done has been copied from someone else and the songs she’s “written” were later learned that the only part of the song she actually WROTE was her name on it!
THAT’s the difference between Michael Jackson and Beyonce – let’s not get it twisted. Someone taught Michael Jackson to Moonwalk and he perfected it, then INTRODUCED it to the world. Nobody did the entire Thriller video, he copied the whole thing and then got on stage and acted as if he”d come up with something new.
B.C. Jean wrote and say, “If I were a Boy”, Beyonce bought it, sang it the same way and thought people wouldn’t find out. Neyo wrote “Irreplaceable” and Beyonce bought it, recorded it and then did interviews about where she was “mentally” when she wrote it.
And youre’ still trying to convince people that this is done regularly? If Beyonce hadn’t gotten busted, she would have never responded and if she was TRULY humbled, she would have thanked the b*tch who performed that piece FIRST during her acceptance speech!
If you go and look on the internet you will find that some in white society are claiming a myth that blacks did not invent the traffic lignt, the gas mask, things you can use peanunt butter for, bulb filament to include the elevator, lawn sprinkler , the mop, dust pan, just to name a few.
However, the truth is yes someone came up with idea first got a patent for the idea but the real deal is that blacks improved the concept made it greater so that the invention actually worked now go tell that…
Just like Beyonce she worked it and received greater recognition that is why a book title cannot be copyrighted.
I do not remember Beyonce being interviewed and discussing I have this wonderful concept and I created it all by me myself and I.
Yes Lady GA GA is selling albums just like Taylor Swift however, the majority of their followers are White… Black cultural is totally different if Whites are not into R & B and if you are not a Michael Jackson then they definitely are not buying black folks CD’s and that is not changing anytime soon racism is still prevalent.Hell blacks are in class all by themselves.
@Nikko!!!!!! You Better Preach!!!!! Hell I try not to let some of the prejudice white fans push me there.Because all white people aren’t prejudice and all Black people aren’t either.I’ve gone to college with a high majority of white people and I was discriminated against.But I wasn’t by everyone.But I received my degree as one of the top In my classes.The only Black person too.I apologize for saying those ignorant things,but I’ve noticed that their are a lot of racist white people on here and I am offended by a lot of the racial slurs I have to read daily.That’s what made me start to use profanity and ignorant slurs as well.I know Beyonce and her family personally,I Love All Of Them.I. Know for A Fact That Her Family and Husband aren’t in the Illuminati,because she used to be a member of our church and has. Visited our church recently and. She’s a very humble young lady with a goodheart and will help anyone she can.She has become stronger,she used to cry and her feeling were hurt by the things that people have said about her,that were lies.But. She has overcome all of her adversaties and evolved into a stronger Black Successful woman.We Love Her Here In Texas.I’m not going to continue to go to war on here.Its not relevant anymore and I’m not going to entertain the negativity anymore.Goodnight
I must speak on this issue that Beyonce undoubtedly has concerning the work of other artists. I’m convinced that the poor girl is an artistic kleptomaniac (one who steals art).
Let me break it down for you; and yes, I’m about to write an essay, but I promise you it’s a good read.
Beyonce’s talent is undeniable. She has emerged as arguably, the biggest and best female pop star on this side of the millennium. That’s not saying much, considering how stiff her competition is (literally). Britney Spears, Rihanna, Ciara, Keri Hilson, Katy Perry, Ke$ha, even newcomer Nikki Minaj may all be or at some point were chart toppers on Billboard but NONE of the above can hold a candle to Beyonce vocally or as a performer. Well, now that I think of it, Ciara surpasses Beyonce as a dancer w/out even trying, but vocally Ciara is no contender. The rest of the aforementioned can’t compete with Beyonce on any level (other than the charts, and to some people that’s the only level that matters). The only other pop star that gives Beyonce a run for her money is Lady GaGa. Too bad that chick is out of her mind.
Now, when you consider Beyonce’s vocal contemporaries; the likes of Adelle,Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Hudson, Chrisette Michelle, Melanie Fiona, and yes, Kelly Rowland. Beyonce is indeed one of the premier vocalist of this current generation but she is NOT the best. And, one must consider Alicia Keyes, who is in a class all by herself because she is not only a good vocalist, but she is a classically trained pianist, composer and a LEGITIMATE song writer; yet, she’s a mainstream artist who outsells all of the ladies I’ve mentioned in this opening paragraph.
I say all this to convey,
Beyonce is ONE of the best in her PEER GROUP. However…in MY OPINION an icon is not only talented and hard working (Beyonce is both these things) but, is also creative, innovative and most importantly, original. Three things that Beyonce is not.
It would not be so bad if this was the first time that Beyonce has been called out over stealing someone else’s concept, choreography, credit, etc., but Beyonce has done this MULTIPLE times to MULTIPLE people, all in the name of “inspiration”. Beyonce was so inspired by Bob Fosse that she jacked his entire concept and choreography for her “Single Ladies” video.Sure, there were minor differences, but for the most part that video and routine was a total rip off. And to add insult to injury, Kanye West had the audacity to call the borrowed piece one of “the best videos of all time” (gag me with a spoon). She was so inspired by Kylie Minogue that she jacked her entire opening number from her tour (the space age robot) for a BET performance. I believe she even jacked a Britney Spears performance no less than a year after Britney performed it. I’m talking, down to the infamous descending from the ceiling to the wardrobe choice (leotard, trench coat and thigh high boots). Beyonce isn’t even subtle about her swagga-jacking. Now that’s bold; taking from your very peer and performing nearly the same number on the same stage (I think). WHO DOES THAT?!!
It’s one thing to be inspired and use that inspiration to fuel your OWN creativity, it’s another thing all together to blatently jack someone else’s ideas and/or visual concepts. EVERYTHING BEYONCE DOES HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE. For those of you who would defend her by saying, ‘well she made it her own and she did it better’, that is a matter of opinion. I happen to think that all Beyonce does is raunchy up someone else’s creative vision because let’s face it, the only thing that separates Beyonce’s renditions from the original ones she confiscates is her seizure hopping and p**** popping. This is not to say that Beyonce has never been legitimately inspired by a fellow artist and/or trail blazer. For instance, It’s obvious that Beyonce is inspired by Tina Turner. She channels the legend’s style and energy in most of her high octane performances. Channels, not copies, there’s a difference. Beyonce channels her inspiration. She copies any and every artist that has something she undoubtedly wants. If she sees it and she likes it she takes it. With no thought as to how dishonorable that makes her look. Lorella Cuccarini is simply the latest victim to get caught in Beyonce’s web of artistic kleptomania.
Here’s the funny part,
If Beyonce actually gave credit where credit is due (as Prophet mentioned), she probably wouldn’t come under fire so much. But the problem with Beyonce is she insist on insulting the publics intelligence. She really wants and expects people to believe that SHE comes up with her video treatments, her stage shows and SHE writes her own songs. Shall I remind you of all the accusations and lawsuits that have come against her as a result of her incessant need to place her name on things that belong to someone else? And how many writers/producers have intentionally or inadvertently put her on blast concerning her production credibility. I’m not saying that she never writes a lyric or presents an idea, but she rarely mentions the TEAM that helps her complete the songs and bring all of the ideas together. She’s too busy trying to keep the focus on herself. The fact that people use the name Beyonce and the word humble in the same sentence is humorous to me. Beyonce is definately one of the most self absorbed and narcissistic entertainers in the game. She falls third in line right behind Lady GaGa, and of course Kanye West holds the top spot. She’s really good at faking it though. She plays unassuming and meek so well, but all you have to do to see just how full of herself she is is consider her history. In Destinys Child she stole the spotlight and made the group all about HER. Even Kelly and Michelle became her resident cheer leaders. As a solo artist she steals concepts, choreography and songs, insisting that SHE’S the power player behind every thing she does. And she seems to know that the world will never hold her accountable for such things. Instead, we’ll just keep giving her awards and accolades that she’s really done nothing to deserve (if you really think about it). That’s what we do for people who have us on a string. That’s what we do for that which we IDOLIZE.
I’ll close by saying,
It is not healthy to be so consumed by the need and want for money, power, prestige and position that you will sacrifice and/or compromise every ounce of decency and integrity you may have had and to disregard your supposed connection or relationship with the One who created you. Nor is it healthy for us to ignore such behavior simply because we believe that our “fave” is the “Queen”, “the hottest chick in the game”, the closest thing to Christ Jesus which is why we call her “Beysus”….Are you getting some idea of how stupid you sound yet?
Wise up people. Wise up.
It’s obvious that both shows had some of the same effects but Beyonce took it to a another level. Had she simply re-performed that exact show it would not have been good enough to receive nearly the amount of praise that she received for the Billboard performance. Bottom line, Beyonce’s choreography and coordinated effects took the performance to another level.
lol @dunkfan i agree taking from the past and taking from what some b**** did last week is a lacefront mess! and why she saying she worked herhardeston this performance.how you work hard and you copy and pasted.and all you did was stand in the middle while the background did the work. and like i said before that speech her mama and nephew gave afterwards was more ghetto than wearing a house of dereon dress to the oscars! SHABLAM!!
Lolllll… Sorry, but that is more than inspiration!
It’s one thing to draw on the idea of the performer interacting with the screen visuals. But it’s something else when there is imagery and choreography which are practically the same!
It seems more like Beyonce got the team behind Lorella’s performance and said “I want something like that” rather than anything truly original and creative. It’s as if she just took the original idea and added to it. Ofcourse, all original ideas are based on inspiration. But there are too many specific similarities..
Beyonce did perform really well (it was more entertaining than Lorella’s), but you can’t deny that the visual aspect is what distinguished this performance as such a great one.
@KILLYASELFHATERS I’m black and all your racism is so lame black people act the same way with white artist so shut that s*** up. I can tell your very insecure and need songs like SL and RTW to lift that fat ass spirit of yours dont nobody want to kiss that ashy dinted pimple infested ass of yours you sloppy b**** you sound ignorant h** up at 3am b**** where your man at? Oh You don’t have one instead this b**** is up eating left over collard greens and baked chicken with a side of banana pudding and you wonder why your a single lady b**** get a job and stop eating so damn much nothing is s*** about you and I can tell by the way you type I bet you got down syndrome.
I completely agree with ‘YOU NEED TO KNOW’
Really and truly why is Beyonce always the one to be INSPIRED but never INSPIRES. Calling it as it is, she is copying at the end of the day if that concept was developed with different imagery etc maybe it would be better but it is really the same. Don’t forget that again in that ‘groundbreaking’ perfomance the beat was Major Lazers and the dance was bby an african Kwaito dance group. So that leaves her with the lyrics and with her track record might not even be hers. Strip that all away Beyonce has a voice, a stage presence and she can dance. But she is not a PIONEER of anything that is what ICONS are about which is why I believe she is not there yet. She is a hardworker at perfecting other people’s creativity thats all. People like Alicia Keys are real artists for example in writing her own lyrics. Even Rihanna who isnt all that great is a more honest entertainer than Beyonce and never claims she wrote any lyrics, she pays credit where its due.
Even the word bootylicious that she claims she created isn’t hers. Snoop Dogg used it an rap in the 90’s and it was also used in living colour.
This girl can only be great if she does something that she can truly call her own and allows her fans to get to know her and say Beyonce is an ICON because she started this. A lot of people dont think is a big deal because she is ‘Beyonce’ . But wait until she steals your idea. You guys forget that she is human and some fans are so obsessed with her that they really believe she can’t do no wrong.

Was she “inspired” by that other woman’s performance or did she simply COPY it…? 🙂
Beyonce is AMAZING!!! She defiantly was the best that night. Only a fool would deny her incredible talent. Original and Iconic? I guess you are when the rest of your competitions music is garbage.
Inspired or copied doesn’t make a difference. Beyonce obviously isn’t the creative one here, she saw something she liked and she stole it. But I doubt Beyonce was trying to get away with anything, she couldn’t be that dumb to someone wouldn’t put it together.. or is she? Cause she isn’t really all that bright… idk
Don’t even f**k with Michael Jackson. He inspired the world like no entertainer ever did before or after him. Don’t bring his name into this wack conversation just Beyonce got caught stealing… again. Michael was about as original as a modern artist could be. Of course he took from others and completely turned their inspiration on its head and created something totally new (nothing anyone had ever seen before). You can’t say that about Beyonce’s performances and style. She rips absolutely everyone she can think of. I know MJ wasn’t perfect and neither is Beyonce, but they are not in the same league. I don’t know how many times people are going to have to say this. MJ was better than everybody. Even his idols (i.e., James Brown, Fred Astaire, Sammy Davis Jr.) acknowledged that he changed the face of music forever. No one is saying this about Beyonce. All you ever hear about her is that she “works so hard” and that she’s a good performer. MJ was an out of this world performer. He was magic, ethereal, mind-blowing. Jamie Foxx said that when he went to MJ’s victory tour in the early 80’s, he saw grown men fainting and crying because Michael was so damn dynamic. Let me know when Beyonce shakes the planet like that.
beyonce when you find inspiration in someones work you give credit and you try to reconstruct for example countdown was a rip off and you did not give credit. you are getting to comfortable stealing these peoples work without thanking them or publicly siting credit to them before you videos come out. im starting not to like you anymore. dont you and your team have any fresh ideas that you cant rip off from foreign artist?
I agree with Darslow ! How can you compare MJ with copycat Beyonce? Seriously!
Of course artists do get inspiration from the world they live in and other artists but they don’t point blank copy others like Beyonce. MJ was one in a… trillion. Beyonce is just another copycat that will soon be forgotten. I seriously hope she loses her suit against my compatriot Theresa Dekeersmaeker.
