[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a love/hate relationship with Beyonce. Sometimes when I read about her -- new toilet seat in any hotel room she stays in on tour, 10K dress for Ivy, Barack and Michelle as best buds -- I feel pieces of my skin flaking off from pure envy. I like her music but only for dancing. I am as uncomfortable as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie with her male-centered brand of feminism. We all know that she wouldn't have become the media juggernaut she did had she covered her thighs and derriere, like, EVER. And yet she can be so touchingly vulnerable at times, so human. And I don't think I would do much better if I had been performing since toddlerhood and famous from the teen years. What was she taught to do besides arrest the gaze, captivate and allure with her physicality? [/quote] This. I think she's not very bright, not a great role model for girls (I have a 5yo AA girl who doesn't really know who she is), and seems to have only a shallow understanding of feminism. I also wonder what she's going to do once she ages out of the skimpy clothes. However, I do think she's a great singer and performer.[/quote] +1. Except I don't think she's a great singer either.[/quote]
