Matthew is powerful, I have no doubt. However, it's more than that. When Beyonce was America's, or the world's, darling she could do no wrong. Her father, Hollywood and corporations did everything they could to exploit that. Now, it's gotten to the point that she's become overexposed and the media is oversaturated with everything Beyonce. People are just over it and over her. It happens to every star that is pushed like that.
I think your point about the foreign indie is interesting. I hadn't thought of that. I could totally see it though. If she wants to be appreciated for her acting she needs to fall back, first of all. Disappear for awhile and learn the craft. Get cast in someone's indie and make sure the character is as far from being glamorous as possible - far from everything we know of and equate with Beyonce. Get the film out, but it has to be a creeper. It's got to be one of those films that doesn't come out and it's everywhere. Get it to a Sundance/Tribeca and let the buzz build slowly. She would be very successful if she did that. I should be in P.R..

I know. I was like, "why is she at the Oscars?" Not to mention that the performance was so random and irrelevant.

I agree. They have pushed her down everyone's throat and now people are sick to their stomachs and throwing her back up.

Its gonna be all about the foreign directors who dont know any better. I.e the one who wants her to play the head female black panther. She is still huge in the Europe ect. Now that she's been proven irrelevant in hollywood, i can so see Matthew trying to make her into an indie darling with foreign directors at the helm. Back to the dress......Just bad. I'm gonna listen to 'Radio' to ease the dissapointment. |

Oh but that would involve being vulnerable and susceptible to the possibility of ~SHOCK, HORROR~ less exposure, or ~SHOCK, HORROR~ less reward.
Clearly her camp sees what Ray did for Jamie Foxx or what Walk The Line did for Joaquin Phoenix and recognises that is the quickest way to get her what she wants. That's why she takes the tired ass biographical roles of some afflicted musician or other. Ugh, and it's so transparent.
I remember watchin an interview with her and she was like "I want to win an Oscar and a TONY" like that shit is so easy and doesn't years of dedication, passion and craft. Maybe she should concentrate on just doing something good and worth a damn. Goal-driven people drive me insane. I mean, ambition and drive are such admirable qualities but when ALL that matters is the outcome, it's like..what's the point..

That's the same thing I thought, but Jamie and Joaquin ARE actors, true and through. On top of that, they studied their subjects. Jamie SAT and PLAYED with Ray Charles before he passed away. And, both actors basically transformed into these men. Beyoncé read Etta's book, went to a crackhouse in NYC and gained 20 lbs. for her role. Seriously, she'd better stick to dancing like a raided roach onstage because that's what she does best. She needs some her family to stop bucking her up into thinking she's more than an entertainer.

I absolutely HATED the dress. I remeber watching the arrivals on E and i nearly choked on my drink!
Shame i love her songs but lately she's been trying a bit too much!
And i agree with the poster who said it's like a normal 5 minute fotd, anyone can do winged liner and have a brown es on the crease

I honestly think more makeup and any more accessories such as earrings would've been overkill with the dress.
Not that it isn't overkill already, but I'm just saying.

She should have pulled it off......and gone to the next design.
