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."

63. Very irresponsible 'journalism' (MUST add the quotes here). The headline insinuates something and all he did was say he liked a popular song.

64. 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.

65. I try to like Beyonce and Destiny's child but the only really rocking tune was "Bootylicious" and that's because Stevie Nicks lent her guitar riff from "Edge of Seventeen" to the song.

I just think Beyonce has a weak voice like her idol Jennifer Lopez. I think she needs to concentrate on acting because she's pretty good at it and it will probably give her longevity.

66. Talk about some hatin ass bitches!! At least Beyonce isn't some nasty crackhead ho like the "White Girls Gone Wild" Hoellywood edition and she's probably a MILLION times more talented than all of them put together or she WILL be since all their brain cells are rotting minute by minute. So who are you a-holes to criticize when the pop divas YOU like are disgusting trailer trash!!
