To think the Beyonce ad is ludicrously self indulgent?!

It is isn't it? Not just me? I really like her and her music but come on.

I've just seen it and said exactly that to DH. Still not sure quite what it was for even.

crazynanna · 20/02/2013 20:24

It's for her tour...and DD has saved hard to go....her and dd1.

Tickets were extortionate!

thebody · 20/02/2013 20:26

She's a tad boring really.

crazynanna · 20/02/2013 20:27

I agree thebody but dare not say it in front of dd Wink

rodandtheemu · 20/02/2013 20:28

I think its great.. she is a mega star so why not! All the worlds a stage and all!

cocolepew · 20/02/2013 20:28

I'm not sure why she appears to be the queen of everything atm, she's not that talented.

Spice17 · 20/02/2013 20:30

I love it and don't know why! Perhaps because the outfit is so amazingly extravagant and regaal looking?

colleysmill · 20/02/2013 20:31

I have no idea what it is advertising!

rodandtheemu · 20/02/2013 20:32

ha ha ooh green eyed monsters i think........or that your turning in to old bags! Wink

colleysmill · 20/02/2013 20:34

Ha ha no green eyed monster! I genuinely have no idea what its for.

cocolepew · 20/02/2013 20:34

I'm not jealous Hmm, I just think her, and her husband, are a bit meh.

SoulTrain · 20/02/2013 20:35

She's amazing. That is all

AnyFucker · 20/02/2013 20:36

She has, and continues to, make a career out of putting one foot sexily in front of the other

The joke is on all of us for thinking she is anything but a fame-driven puppet of misogyny

iloveshortshorts · 20/02/2013 20:36

That joker DJ is scary

No malice intended I just think that whilst I like it and like her it is just very ott

Her voice is dire, sorry.

Agree with AF.

MidnightMasquerader · 20/02/2013 20:41

What's the ad?

cocolepew · 20/02/2013 20:41

I like Justin Timberlake's new single then Jay Z comes in and ruin it with his ridiculous rap.

thebody · 20/02/2013 20:42

Jealous of her money true but to be honest my arse is much smaller so happy about that!!

chickensarmpit · 20/02/2013 20:43

She looked a bit grey to me. She didn't look her usual self.

LadyBeagleEyes · 20/02/2013 20:49

I'm not a fan, I don't get her at all.
But I'm old, my niece saw her at T in the Park and thought she was amazing.
DS was at the same festival and wandered off to look at obscure bands that I've never heard of.
Each to their own, really.
I would hate to sound like our parents/grandparents did and say 'ooh the music of today etc etc', and disapprove.

someoftheabove · 20/02/2013 20:51

I think the outfit is amazing. Don't care much for her and her man, though.

Ariel24 · 20/02/2013 20:57

I used to really like her but she is so irritating these days. So attention seeking and she seems quite arrogant too.

SoulTrain · 20/02/2013 20:58

Of course. She must be a puppet. She must be dominated by men. She must be a slave to an industry that hates. Bore off - its just pop music.

AnyFucker · 20/02/2013 20:59

You stick to your opinion, ST, I'll stick to mine
