VIDEO: Beyonce- Diva
December 23rd, 2008
Beyonce+Sasha Fierce= Diva! Is it me, or does “Diva” resemble “Single Ladies”, but in a more grimy setting? Either way, anytime I get to see Beyonce blow up cars, dance between long linked chains with two voluptuous tender ronni’s by her side, the world is an extremely better place for me…honestly, it is.
Though I thoroughly enjoyed every second of the clip, me and some of my blogging cohorts were still left unsatisfied. Now don’t get me wrong, I love me some Beyonce, but I was expecting something completely different. Dancing/walking/strutting in back alley’s isn’t as interesting as it used to be.
What if they showed Beyonce waking up for a full day of work, you know, we follow her from picking out her clothes in the morning, to shooting a video, then rehearsing for a movie, then conducting a board meeting for her clothing line in which right after, she hits the stage for a dope performance showing the true meaning of a “Diva”? Tell me that ish wouldn’t be a sincerely dope experience? Maybe I should be a video director, hmmmmmm??
Anyway, check out Beyonce’s new video, below!
Sincerely

upgrade the director , thats a good one …*****
OKAY, I HAVE TO SAY THIS, AS A B FAN, I AM UTTERLY DISAPPOINTED. I HAVE ENJOYED THE MAJORITY OF HER MUSIC UNTIL THIS VERY MOMENT. I LOVE “IF I WAS A BOY” AND I EVEN LIKE “SINGLE LADIES” BUT THIS RIGHT HERE? NO. AM I MISTAKEN OR WAS MY GIRL TRYNA RAP? THERE WAS TOO MUCH THUGGISHNESS GOIN ON FOR AN OTHERWISE REFINED WOMAN. AT LEAST A REFINED WOMAN IS WHAT IVE SEEN THUS FAR.
NOW IM ALL FOR CHANGE. CHANGE CAN SOMETIMES BE GOOD…BUT I DONT KNOW IF THIS CONCEPT WAS GOOD. THE IDEA THE BLOGGER HAD WAS WELL ON POINT AND WOULD HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY SEXY TO ME.
IM NOT HATIN ON MY GIRL AT ALL. I THINK THAT SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AND THE FACT THAT HER BODY IS SICK! PUTS THE ICING ON THE CAKE. HOWEVER, I JUST FEEL THAT THIS DIRECTION WITH THE RAPPPIN AND THE DANCING IN A BATHING SUIT THING, (ALTHOUGH LOVELY TO LOOK AT) ARTISTICALLY IS NOT WHAT HER FANS WILL RESPOND TO.
Wow, I love this song Diva, it’s defintely a club banger, like single ladies.
I love single ladies video, however this video for DIVA, I was disappointed.
I expected more and for B to really bring it because it’s called DIVA…………………….It’s such a powerful song, I thought it could have been much better, I totally agree with low also, but B is still doing the damm thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yall better get off my baby case, she the truth stop hatin,
i agree with diamond b is fat ashunti keysha and brandy is way better than b the only thing b can do is act hoeish and she no men like that shes no role model she dam show cant sing only dance her skip to the loo songs are so easy to learn that girl can not sang like alicia keys they over rate b any she will be the one to fade with time cause im sick of her.ashunti cd song videos just hot b need to sit down fall out.
all yall who talking bout the video is boring gon be the main ones trying to learn the dance….yall know beyonce can do no wrong….so let the hatin go!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love the vedio very much bey is best god bless her
dang why do i keep hearing hpw wack her cd(s) are , the video was o.k
why is she doing the marching band danceline moves, who’s the choreographer the asu stingettes or jsu jsettes
but vidoe was o.k ,go beyonce!
at 2:40 didn’t J.lo wore that same dress also? Dang B, all together in the video there a piece of Rihanna “The *Hey* Part”, Ciara “Dancing like Ci-Ci”, Lady Gaga “When she dances with her dancers, that Black coat with the points” and J.Lo with that Dress. She won’t have the word “Legend” Labeled by her name NO TIME SOON..
yall all some haters beyonce keep doing yo thing in making that money
DO DO IT GIRL! NICE..JUST LIKE YOU! GO ON GIRL.. I LIKE IT..
dont get me wrong i like the song and maybe im jus taking this out of context but im not quite understanding how a diva is the female version of a hustla.. bey worked hard to get where she is, she didnt have to hustle anything, her multi- talents and her determination is what got her to the top.. i dont know but i think hustla was the wrong term…
Okay…Lets start off @ the beginning…
I love Beyonce and support anything that she does so its obvious imma love her video! I love this video cuz it gives me gangsta and gutta! When i first heard this song this is what I expected. I mean i wouldnt want to see beyonce with her glitz and glamor and shining lights everywhere again. We already got enough of that[B'day].
Furthermore, Beyonce is a PERFORMER, that is her primary job, she makes videos to perform. Frankly, u dont see alot of videos where its just the artist and two females gettin it. U seein a lot of party videos and other people dancin. I wanna see the artist dancin and singin. Not everyone else. Who’s name is on the credits? HERS! then who do i wanna see in the video? HER! simple…get into it.
its so funny because people are callin her not origional but then yall wanna see things that she has already done? which one yall want? LOL.
last but not least…a diva is a female version of a hustlah…a hustlah is someone that makes they money anymeans necessary and i know she makes her money…anymeans necessary.
bottom line…BEYONCE is hot…she aint goin nowhere…yall aint realizin it…PAY IT. she doin it and yall cant take it. GET INTO IT!
Watching diva is the equivalent of watching Beyonce’s public meltdown. She lacks creativity. She refuses to evolve because her ego is so gigantic she really believes her stans and fans will buy just about any juvenile immature, ghetto crap she puts out. WELL, she was wrong and so was Matthew. A million she did not sell and will not sell in her first week of sales because her gimmicky image and lackluster recycled party tracks are so regressive. Sure, SL got a boost from the video a concept she jacked from Fosse and failed to give proper credit, and now she’s in a dusty warehouse channeling an eclectic performance of Deja Vu, Ring the Alarm, Crazy In Love, some Ciara, some Rihanna, lots of Lady Ga Ga allllll for what? To prove she’s still relevant? To prove she is not getting old and as far as the media is concerned washed up? Earth to reality. If you are not going to make a classic album or carve out a niche like Alicia Keys (who is in her own lane), then you must must must take a sabbatical. You must go to the mountain top and scream that you want to be taken serious. Otherwise, the young teeny bopper middle school and high school fans will eventually outgrow you too. Did you ask yourself why your sales are declining? Why you have to work so hard to stay in the game, and why you have to ambush us with these singles and idiotic senseless videos? I’ll tell you why. Because you are uncertain and insecure about your place in the industry. You know more than anybody else not everybody is screaming your name so you resort to bopping around in leotards, wearing glasses, and dated hairdos just for attention, but that is not how you attain ICON status. You earn it and from what I’m seeing and hearing you are telling the critics that you are entitled but we beg to differ. Diva is a song that should have never made it on the cd, it is a Lil Mama song, a Lil Kim, or Trina, even Foxy Brown, maybe Eve, but certainly not Beyonce which brings me to say you are not as grand as you think you are and it shows in your work.
i liked it,but beyonce the black and white videos not that good. but the video i think fits great withthe song, and don’t listen to the other comments, that iwas some bull s***
Excuse me, it is never HATING when someone asks your opinion…and that is what BET is doing (asking what others think of the new Beyonce’ video)!!!
Say it, wasn’t that impressed…same old choreography, same old tune, same old outfits. If she would’ve mirrored her lyrics that would’ve been better…but she is doing what she wants so…..
ok this video could have been a little more original but first things first.
whoever says that beyonce is too old and needs to sit her fat ass down needs to get a life and stop bein jealous. beyonce is only 27 and has a long way to go.
whoever says that beyonce is not the MVP has not been reading articles, watching TV, or keeping up with reality.
whoever says that beyonce is no keyshia cole or brandy should not consider themselves a fan of keyshia or brandy because if you were a true fan you would not put them in the same category as beyonce anyway.
whoever says that this part of the video was like Ciara and this was like Rihanna needs to stop comparing videos and compare numbers.
I really like Beyonce’s entire album (ok almost the entire thing) but some of yall haters (and yes some of yall are haters) need to fall back. if you dont like beyonce don’t watch her cuz obviously she got the last laugh on this one.
i like it it was good it was something differetn
I love it…I think it is great…she is a DIVA
b da video was good andit had a goo begining and end but i was expecting more glam to your diva video
