Who Is Sasha Fierce?

October 24th, 2008

Beyonce

Who is Sasha Fierce? Is it some rakish drag queen doing his best lip-sync performance of Ru Paul’s “Supermodel (You Better Work)” or some all purple suit donning pimp, wearing platform shoes and a white fur coat? Well it’s neither.

Sasha Fierce is Beyoncé’s new alter-ego that she’ll unveil on her upcoming two disc, I Am . . . Sasha Fierce, according to Billboard magazine. Dropping on Nov. 18, one disc will showcase her pop side with songs written by Amanda Ghost and E. Kidd Bogart, while the other one will highlight her R&B roots with songs produced by Jim Jonsin, Tricky Stewart and Bangladesh.
OK, why am I not all excited? I love the alter-ego name, Sasha Fierce. I just wished that the concept behind it had more imagination than the “pop versus R&B.” Guess I was hoping for something more outlandish like David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust or Janelle Monae’s Cindi Mayweather – you know, something for futuristic and edgy to give justice to the alter-ego’s name. I bet lil sis, Solange could pull off a this off much better.

What are your thoughts?

When Beyonce is mentioned, haterz come out the woodwork! lol Its funny how Bey having an alter ago is a problem now. But yet Janet’s “damita jo” or MARY J’s “Brook Lynn” is cool??? Yea whatever! Go Bey, and all these other b*tches in the game better get ready!

I don’t think she said she doesn’t want to be called Beyonce. She is just emphasizing her alter-ego Sasha Fierce, who is well known to most of Beyonce’s TRUEST fans. Its nothing new. Its just more publicized now. Don’t make such a BIG deal of it. Her alter-ego represents her getting over her shyness when she gets on stage, showing a great amount of confidence and of COURSE giving us great performances. KAPESH…..

Remember Tyrease and Black Tie..?



sick and tired Said on

i am so sick of this girl i am the same age as her and i didnt like her in dd because she always wanted the attention look back her father had it planed from the beginning for her to go solo he couldnt put her out by herself thats why she needed the group to sing lead and the other girls she didn’t care about oh but they couldn’t even promote her sistas album kelly and tenetra this girl career is coming to a end but shes smart as hell for marrying jayz because she doesnt need music no more she already set but keep watching that marriage is not gonna last peace



ms chelle Said on

i really like the idea. i have started telling everyone that i have different personalities too. i am a cancer so i have many sides. i know how she feels and i really understand the concept. of course there will be negative people trying to cause problems – but beyonce has become a beautiful talented star who works for what she has – so she deserves every blessing she receives. i will definately be at the stores when it comes out.

Beyonce needs some deliverance real quick! I feel that she is a mentally unstable individual to actually do a cd as her alter-ego. I mean, really enough is enough! First her husband went from Jay-Z to calling himself Jay-Hova, the last time I looked in my word, ther was only one Jehovah and for him to make reference to himself in the same context as God says to me that he is crazy as well. They both are crazy and they both need some deliverance! They both playing with fire and soon, God gonna have to show both them nuts who he is!!!!!



Regina Said on

I think she looks like a man but she is still one of my musical influences.
She’s a beautiful young woman of color, I see no reason for change or whatever she’s doing

I think that beyonce is the only female artist that brings something different to the table. Most female artist try to copy her style by doing the big hair, over the top dancing, and having their hip-hop boyfriends on songs with them. Regardless rather you think she’s pretty or that people hype her name up to much. Now that Aaliyah is in heaven and Janet is getting old, Beyonce is the best r&b star out there. I’m not a big fan of her acting but I give credit when some one tries to spread their wings. I love all her songs because they are fun and I can relate. When I Am… drops it’s gonna sell PERIOD.

I don’t know why people are so suprised by her alter ego. Beyonce has stated numerous times in the past that when she performs live, she is a different person on stage. A person that she named, and her fans came to know as “Sasha”. Sasha is sassy and comes hard on stage. As far as being crazy, many artists have claimed that they are different during their performances. Moreover, what is wrong with an artist that dances? Not everyone can play an instrument. Dance is an art, just ask Debbie Allen and Gregory Hines. Beyonce/Sasha likes to entertain her fans. Of course we never talk about Usher and Chris Brown doing the same.



Chan Said on

Gregory Hines Rest In Peace



pamela d Said on

I love the video and if this is what she wants to do then so be it! Do your thang Sasha Fierce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Deborah Said on

I agree with one of the post that Beyonce is all private about her life and other things, and now that her album is coming out she is out there opening up a little and talking about “Sasha Fierce” – that is soooooooooooo juvenile. Beyonce is getting older and need to stop the madness. And futhermore why when someone doesn’t agree with what Beyonce is doing or her music they have to be called a “hater”?????Who is hating, not everyone likes Beyonce, is that a crime. Just because we have our opinions about her doesn’t mean we are HATING!!Who cares, this a site to leave a comment. So to all the people who call others HATERS!!!!Go sit down somewhere. You are not profitting off of Beyonce – you are just making her richer buy running out and buying her music each and every time she comes out with something new. There are other singers that are much better than Beyonce, its not just about her – PLEASE!!!!!she now wants to start talking because she wants to get them sales – come on people. She knows what she is doing. And her songs aren’t always originally. She needs to chill and have some babies!!!!She wants to be so private and personal – why can’t she just admit she married Jay-Z – if the love is real then just say it – she should be proud of her marriage and love for him. But nooooooooooo she wants to act like it ain’t happen. When she or anyone else chooses this career sometimes there is no such thing as privacy. But you want people to spend their hard earned money to buy your music – PLEASE – and I am not hating just voicing my opinion like everyone else and ain’t a dam thing wrong with that! To all the people who are not fond of Beyonce, hey that is your choice – you are not hating, just stating!!!smile.



Margo Said on

I’m a Beyonce fan, but can you say “over-exposed”? Like Rihanna too, but again, can you say “over-exposed”? Daggone, share the spotlight…you don’t HAVE to retire by the age of 30. And that never works anyway. Remember when hubby Jay-Z said he was done rapping? Came right back out a few years later. This Sasha Fierce sounds like a bite from Mariah doing the alter ego thing w/Mimi – but hey, if its working for you girl, then do the d–n thang!



Joi Said on

Hopefully she’s more interesting than Bey. Because Bey is BORING & her interviews are BORING!! And her classic album was her first album & I don’t think she can top that especially doing songs with the same beat of her previous album. Sorry that’s the truth again & not hating!!



Honey Bear Said on

I think tht it is a gd thng cause she gets 2 express how she feels.Also tht it can help figure out who she rlly is i luv tht a black woma is trying to get the wrd out bout if u’r in a bad relationship get out. I meet Beyonce on my 13th b-day i was soooooooooooooo excited she is a relly nice person and is fun 2 talk 2.But as soon as she got the *## i was lke ”who is tht ,she aint te same person nomore’ So all ya’ll HATERS STOP!!!!!!! HATEN on my girl BEYONCE.



lorna Said on

Can’t understand why anyone would have a problem with her doing her thing. Beyonce should be celebrated always. Although not perfect, she always appears to conduct herself like a lady and she does it with style and grace. She could be doing so many other stupid things due to her star status, but she’s just having fun with her career which is what she should be doing. She has paid her dues, gone through good and bad times and now she should be able to enjoy her life and make whatever music she wants to. Love you Beyonce



erika Said on

Beyonce said years ago that she made sasha for the stage because she would get nervous sometimes because she a solo artist and she said she keeps her alter-ego life which is on the stage seperate 4rm her real life.
Get ur facts straight
