The would-be boys: George & Beyonce…

Xena or Beyonce?

Xena or Beyonce?

I recently discovered this duet on YouTube, featuring Beyonce and (infamous) George Michael. In concert at London’s O2 Arena, Beyonce performs one of my favorite songs of hers, If I Were a Boy. I cannot really find a reason for George Michael to be present (considering he is male), but she seems to appreciate his presence…if eyes signify appreciation, that is. If only he could manage to use the correct lyrics and sing a bit louder to match Beyonce’s energy!

Oh, I forgot. Did I mention Beyonce had just arrived in London after her audition for a new television series, Xena: Bootylicious Princess? [Sorry, it needed to be said.]

Beyonce, meet Adrianna…

January 10, 2009

I just came across this video on YouTube, which I absolutely adore. I think you will too. Featuring a little girl named Adrianna, this clip mimics Beyonce’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” music video, which received massive attention on the site in 2008. The original vid features Beyonce and 2 backups dancing in a continuous shot (sort of) against an ever-changing empty backdrop. Adrianna’s interpretation is better than any attempt I could make at performing Beyonce’s moves and is particularly keen around 2:50 into the video. Enjoy.
