because even though her music is entirely not my thing she has a wealth of talent, comes across as a lovely person and has those thighs

It's too many 'pros' for one person to have.

What is it you usually place to the left, noddy?

noddyholder · 21/06/2012 18:51

Everything you own in a box (or a pile of washing)

We do a routine at Zumba to Countdown.
I grind up on it, girl, show him how I ride it.
Oh yes. In my plimsols. In the village hall.

ViviPru I have no idea whether OP is BU or not but this has made me laugh so much that I had to put the baby down and lean up against the kitchen counter for breath.

How about the fact she not only wears fur she also uses it in her designs for her clothing range.

Don't get me wrong I love her music and I do like her generally but for me that is unforgivable

noddyholder · 21/06/2012 18:59

If Wham re formed my life would be complete. I don't know if I am pepsi or shirlie now but Cyb needs to maove aside

noddyholder · 21/06/2012 19:00

move even

MrsRhettButler · 21/06/2012 19:01

I used to like 'big pimpin' when it came out Blush

I looove Jay Z, always have done. Not to look at of course but his music.

Beyonce is ok, I mean she's talented and all. I liked 'babyboy' with Sean Paul. I like Sean Paul too.

noddyholder · 21/06/2012 19:02

I really like teh look of jay z aswell as the music not as cool as Pharrel though

ViviPru · 21/06/2012 19:04

Hah, thanks Foshizz, that's made my otherwise mediocre day Grin

Big Pimpin is a killer tune, if you don't take the lyrics seriously (in the same way one appreciates a blast of Doggystyle from time to time)

MrsRhettButler · 21/06/2012 19:05

Oooh Pharrel, now he's a cutie pie

BerryLellow · 21/06/2012 19:06

'For a split second I thought to myself hang on a minute -isn't one of them dead? - then I realised I was thinking of Heather Trott'

Actually weeping at that! :o

MrsRhettButler · 21/06/2012 19:07

There's another Jay Z one with Missy Elliot, 'is that yo bitch' I love that one too.

I sing along to it in the car (obv when the dc AREN'T in it!)

ViviPru · 21/06/2012 19:15

Barry It's true though Blush.

My neurones are completely misfiring this week Sad

cocolepew · 21/06/2012 19:26

She caterwalls and she married Jay Z. Who has 99 problems but a bitch aint one of them. Nice.

RedBlanket · 21/06/2012 22:00

She's mates with Gwynnie and Chris, isn't that reason enough

ViviPru · 21/06/2012 22:09

But.. but

ViviPru · 21/06/2012 22:11

And makes my stomach flip.

this is my fav, its so fun!

Mixed feelings about Beyonce.

She is beautiful, talented, obviously very drive and has achieved this amazing international career. She comes across as a good person in interviews. I like the fact that she is married to Jay Z and they are this shiny Super Star Couple.

But...but...but....she seemes to have started off this trend for literally shoving your fanjo in people's faces in pop videos. Rhianna has taken up the baton, but Beyonce definitely set the precedent. It doesnt sit comfortably with me. I watch some of her videos and think 'porn'. I wonder why she feels she has to wear such nasty, tacky outfits to get noticed, now she is at the top of her game?

I watched the video for 'Girls Run The World or whatever that shite cod-feminist song was called and just cringed.

I liked Destiny's Child's material better than her solo stuff.

Byzantina · 21/06/2012 22:35

driven

Byzantina · 21/06/2012 22:36

And she's bezzy mates with the Gwynnie one. That is a massive black mark against her, surely?

TheNightWatch · 21/06/2012 22:42

It's such a strange foursome, isn't it? I bet that gwynnie and Chris are wild behind closed doors.
