Barack and Beyonce -- Crazy in Love

Posted Sep 23rd 2007 5:00PM by TMZ Staff

Move over Obama Girl, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's got a new girl on his mind. It turns out he's pretty into bootylicious Beyonce.

On a recent campaign stop in Creston, Iowa, Obama was asked what his top tunes were, according to CNN. It turns out rockin' Barack's a big fan of old soul and new pop -- he even likes some of the new songs the young whippersnappers like!

Said Obama, "I tell you what. I can tell you the kinds of stuff that I love dancing to...I'm sort of of the generation of Stevie Wonder and 'Earth, Wind and Fire."

But Barack's also a big Beyonce fan. "I'm sort of hip to the younger stuff. You know, like Beyonce's 'Crazy in Love.' That's a good song to dance to."

18. Fat? I wish I was shaped like her a 25 inch waist is not fat anywhere, except on the runway. She has hips that real men like. as for her voice, what is wrong with a 4 octave range. Besides having 115 million dollars is not bad. Jealousy, is as cruel as the grave.

20. Barack is just trying to sound hip...I'm sure he's into Beyonce. What black man (or many white men) don't like Beyonce? But Oprah's man is just trying to appeal to the younger voters who never vote anyway.

21. The fact that Obama digs Beyonce proves that he is Black enough. I love her! And so does every other Black male in America and the world. Yes her thighs and butt are fat and that is exactly what Black Men love, we call it "phat", "juicy" and a few other good words. But Beyonce is much more than her amazing physical attributes, she is also extremely talanted and very smart. But what drives the White haters mad with anger is the fact that Beyonce have not taken a White Man as a lover. She has ten times the talant of Britney or any other young White female entertainer of that type yet she still does not have the maga recognition that she deserve even though she is, by her talants alone, very big. She will never get the Super-Mega sex symbol status that she seeks until she takes a White lover. I hope she never does. Not because I am a racist but because it is time that the White Male be shown that he is not God and we can live without him.

22. When we get the chance to watch TV, usually at a department store or and electronics store. It's free there! We like to watch Beyonce videos with the volume turned down real low or on mute. We don't like anything else to break our concentration while our shovels get that warm cultivation feeling.

Beyonce doesn't seem to let her Dirt or Chuck ways out from what we've seen and heard. We would still welcome her into our world though, we welcome everyone in our world.

23. He will never win. Sorry Oprah but even you can not buy this election.

24. What sense does it make to ask if Obama is "black enough"? That hasn't stopped anybody else from winning the presidential election...

25. So true, Beyonce is so over-exposed and it's getting to be old news to see her picture with her different hair weaves anywhere anymore. Yeah, she is gorgeous and can sing , but who cares?

Obama is cool, like him. Don't think he'll win. Not much of a story here.

26. Beyonce is incredibly gorgeous.

27.
I never believed the bull about their very young child bothered by the girl who sang the song about him.
I think his wife used the child to vent her own insecurities.
The media ran with it and Obama looked weak.
It really was not a big deal untill someone decided to make it a big deal.

28. Barack is one hot and handsome man. His wife should be jealous with all the female attention that he is getting. The man is fine.

29. I'm really disappointed by some of the commentary here. It just solidifies my belief that the intellect of the general population is in rapid decline. By the way, for the comment above... rap is not the original "true black music." Read up on your music history, please.

30. You stupid Americans are still questioning whether he is black enough. Get over it! What are the black qualifications?
