Well the poster was not
attacking her You took it as that because you are a fan. The poster was just giving their opinion that I actually think is true. Her halftime show was overly sexual. It does not matter that there are more provocative things. The fact of the matter is her performance was still overly explicit for a family spetacle that is viewed by millions of families around the world. I actually was surprised it did not get more negative reviews since the media made such as big deal about Janet Jacksons half time show in 04 for a barely noticable boob. I thought Beyonces performance was more sexually explicit.

I dance as well and have done tap, ballet, jazz, lyrical, mime, liturgical, hip hop etc and what Beyonce does is NOT dancing lol She does not do technical intricate choregraphy. She does alot of interactive crowd movements, she strunts, shakes her hair and behind but that technially is not
dancing.
All dancing is not
sexual
Janet Jackson.... DANCES and the type of dancing that she did during her
prime was not sexual it was technique (Modern, Jazz, Militant etc)

I think Beyonce is a talented singer but boring (not spetacular, unique and range is quite limited) but make no mistake about it... She greatly depends on her image which she markets as "overly sexual" because if she didnt she would not pose on magazine covers in underwear or half naked if she didnt
depend on it.
The president asked Beyonce to perform at the Inaugration because she raised money for his campaign. He could have asked anybody to sing the song.That
arrangement has nothing to do with her "voice" specifically.

You can disagree and express yourself but name calling is unnessary which you did to the poster simply because you disagreed.
