Beyoncé('s Dad) Responds To Petition


Over 6,600 Beyoncé enthusiasts have come together to sign a petition "for the advocacy of having Ms. Beyoncé Knowles, Columbia Records, Music World Entertainment, and all other entities associated with the creative process of creating the long-form music video known as 'Deja Vu' reshoot aforementioned video immediately."

If you think Miss Knowles has a problem when a couple thousand of her "Crazy in Love" loyalists sign a statement like "this video is an underwhelming representation of the talent and quality of previous music video projects of Ms. Knowles" then you don't know her father, co-founder of imanipulatemybeautifuldaughterformyownsuccess.com (along side of Joe Simpson), Matthew Knowles.



When Papa Knowles heard that the previously mentioned petition made national headlines, he did what any good irreverant celebrity father would do ... he put out an offical "statement".

"It is apparent that there is a consistent plan by some to create chaos around Beyoncés 'B'Day' album release on September 5 in the US. First, it was a petition against the single, 'Deja Vu,' then a rumor regarding conflict between Beyoncé and Rihanna, seizures caused by the 'Ring the Alarm' video, putting out a single to compete with LeToya's album and now to add to all the ridiculous rumors, is my plan to postpone the release of her 'B'Day' album. What will be next? Beyoncé's cut off all her hair? Dyed it green? Maybe she's singing the songs in reverse with some hidden subliminal message!"

What ?!? It gets worse ...

31. The dancing in B's video is classic and she is paying tribute to the great Josephine Baker. I think she is very talented and is always authentic. It's a heck of a lot better than rolling around in the sand like that dumb*** Paris. By the way Madonna did the "sand roll" better back in the 80s with "Cherish".

32. White people hate it because Beyonce has more talent in her little finger than Britney and Paris together. And #17, Stop hating on Mariah just because she's the Queen. LOL! Peace!

33. I agree with #21. With all these out of work, talented Black and Mixed racial actresses, they give the part to a white girl. What a slap in the face to black Hollywood. It's not bad enough that there is not one black show on any of the main networks, although black shows have always done very well in the past but now they are giving roles for blacks to whites. Wake up black Hollywood, they are trying to fade you out!!!

36. Pop's better get a thicker skin than what he already got in this business, and it will get more interesting. He forgets, freedom of speech. Beyonce didn't forget: there's a video showing Beyonce, Kelly, Michelle, and Farah. It's quite evident in the video that Beyonce is snotty, stuck-up, and that the publicity maching behind Knowles is extremely good: she is not what she portends, pretends, and otherwise to be!

37. you say beyonce is still black...but yet in every video she makes now she has staright blonde hair and some sort of bue-ish green contacts in. Hmmmm......doesn't sound like she's trying to be too black to me!

38. I think this is just point blank the negative face of pure racisim. The dancing is african dancing, the local looked like New Orleans bayuo. At first I did not like the video but it grew on me. It was beautifully shot and people just seem to have this issue with the fact that beyonce went the route of her roots. The girl is black and proud of it. That is an amazing video and the fans who do not like it are probably fans who do not want to be reminded about african american culture. Maybe she should of had a bunch of crucnk dancers and dance lights around. then i am sure those people who do not like the video would be like that. put the blacks in their elements?????No she did a great video and that is all that matters.

40. Beyonce's video too sexy and provacitive?
Everone's absolutely correct with their complaints. I mean the way she simulates sex with a woman (pretending to kiss her),and licking the guys face and the guy licking her skates and the woman with the way to short shorts....OH WAIT: THATS JESSICA SIMPSONS' VIDEO.

Never mind.

41. She is just another video ho!

42. OMG. I can't believe people have such a problem with the video. What's the issue here - that she bends backwards while holding on to her boyfriends belt buckle? That's what I've heard is the major issue and to be honest I think those who are so upset about it are a bunch of retards that need to get a life of their own.

43. Can someone tell me who is so upset over this video? Is it the African Americans...because I thought they would proud! What's up with this? Always talking heritage and so proud so like I said...what's up?

44. ,,,,oh please leave the child alone ok? Its called artistic growth. If you can't follow it then let it be.

45. Well,
Does anyone think this may be for publicity?
I do think her album is good, I heard the leaks. But with all those other good artists coming out with their own cds around the same time you can't help but wonder. If we are going to start a petition lets start one trying to get jessica simpson to just give up singing..... I heard her album leaks and they SUCK!!!
