I'm so mad I missed the actual show, but I really enjoyed Jennifer's performance. As for Beyodel, I tried but I just couldn't get through hers. Sawwy, stans, but she is not the epitome of a good SINGER...she should just stick to poppin' her coochie and yodeling silly bubble gum pop songs(which I guess is considered 'performing' to some folks). *shrugs*
Halo was just okay, but people gave Jennifer a standing ovaiation. I watched it and I liked Jennifers voice. Bey drop that Sasha act. Oh and thank your spouse next time like Will Smith did .
That song was originally written for Leona Lewis, and I think she would have done it justice. There are just some songs (such as Halo) that Beyodel's voice is not fit for, but apparently she hasn't gotten the memo.
I was wondering if Jennifer got a standing o after she sang...good for her!
Did you pick up on anything during Beyodel's acceptance speech? I was reading another blog and someone said she looked like she was on the verge of tears and when the camera man panned to the Cowardly Lion's twin (Mama Knowles)they said she looked hot as fish grease.
Jennifer did a great job. I'm really amazed at how far she's come. She comes out on stage like she's been doing this forever. It's become so natural to her.
Halo is a good song. As well as, Disappear and Broken Hearted-Girl. These are pop in your MP3 and ride on I-75 type songs.
I love J Hud as much as the next music lover but her album was not the best last year. None of the songs were exceptional but with her voice you can get away with that... and thats definitely not to say that I am... was all that either. I think both albums were nice. Not classics, but nice. I always enjoy new music, especially when they artist isnt reminding me of the boys back on Bankhead.
Gotta say. Won't be the first time it has ever been said, I know.
Beyonce is a beautiful girl with the make-up, weave, expensive dresses and all. Well trained to "perform" with the shaking of the head and all.
But, she is SO O-V-E-R R-A-T-E-D. I just decided I never want to hear that damn song Halo again because of her.
I can respect her hard work, but there are way too many singers who blow her out of the water! Starting with Jennifer Hudson. Jennifer stands still--flat foot KILLS a song with her vocal talent. It is straight from her heart when she sings.
Beyonce shakes that damn weave like it will get her added energy or some shyt.
I dare Beyonce to sing next to the lady Sheree at my church and try that. Sheree won't ever seek out fame and fortune, but she will out sing Yawnce WITHOUT a microphone. I have seen her sing herself into a coma. While Yawnce does all that up and down scaling crap that phucks up the whole song.
Thats one of the things I dont like about Beyonce. She never seems appropriate. I could have thought of more fitting songs for her to sing, I agree. But I think in her mind (LOL) Halo could work...she does sing about saving grace and such...[shrugs]
As usaually J-Hud did her thang,never a let down..The girl can SANG..
Jennifer has lost alot of weight,but I wounder if she is having a baby because that lil pouch hasnt went anywhere.U know they say every birth theres a dealth,and it's the same the other way every dealth theres a birth...
Here's a question: Why don't Bey's stylist try something new instead of that dry ass, prairie grass weave? Her shit ALWAYS look nappy and dry at the roots, but then soft and silky and fake three inches below. And it never fucking matches her real hair color. Jennifer might wear weaves, too, but at least her shit is cut into a nice modern style. I bet her weave stylist is an actual professional wig maker because only a professional wig maker can make weave look good on a woman's head like Jennifer.
When them hoes fight, call me so I can get my front row seat. Until then, they both really need to exit stage left. And I love me some J-Hud and I feel sorry for the tragic loss of her family, but even she is starting to wear thin...
at least J-Hud aint promoting a song like she wrote and own it like beyodle does. it seems like yodle was off since it wasn't bout her all night. she so fake anyway.
Since I missed the show, I didn't know what the theme was. But no one should be surprised that Beyodel sang a song that was totally IRRELEVANT to the setting. This DEFINITELY would have been the perfect time to sing someone else's song. *sniggling*
I like both songs, I think they are both talnted in their own ways! I love halo! but I think her image is not helping her music! Jennifer's voice is so powerful! she sings her music with emotion!
If jennifer hudson was 40 pounds lighter and light skinned she would be big also! the people who love jennifer are classical trained singers who don't sell millions of albums! black folks love to pu ligh skinned folks on a pedestal! I know because I'm light skinned. Jennifer hudson is more of a gospel singer with a powerful voice, she could never do pop like beyonce whose voice is softer!
I wish she would pop her azz back to Texas and stay there. Be still sometimes when she sing. That annoys me...all that twitching around and carrying on.
I know you believe the whole world is just sitting here waiting for you to show up and "make things better". I just want you to know, I would prefer for you to give us a break now. I want to see you further your formal education, go natural, be less jealous hearted, be less controlling and to stop hating it so much when other young ladies out sing and shine you. I know you mama'nem got you thinking no one is better than you. I am mad at them for that. But, I don't want to see you anymore for a while.
Come on guys, Beyonce is very talented like Beyonce. However, I have had enough Beyonce in my life for the time being. make some babies, rock your real hair, kill us with your bad acting, and maybe gain a few pounds! come back with a real story to tell!
Your post is a sweeping generalization for real. I happen to be a Black woman who has NEVER worn a weave, so I couldn't begin to tell you what color/brand she's rockin'.
Two beautiful women... two beautiful voices. Bey is just in the spotlight everywhere you look and I think her audience is ready for her to take a break. J-Hud is truly a blessed story and people want her to continue to step out and be seen.
Out of all the black women in my office only one wears a weave, but some of them will slap a wig on. Some have been there for years and have never exposed their natural hair. I can only imagine what would make someone hide their natural hair up under some funky wig or weave for years. Things can't be that bad, can it? That's self-inflicted social bondage.
Didn't mean to offend the ladies, Anti. The reason I asked is because my girl wears weaves for different looks, and she got so much of it packed back in the closet. Everywhere I turn there's a weave here, and a wig there. But I love her to the depths of my bones. Her and her drawers, lol! I got her a nice ass little piece of finger bling for Valentines day. She gone love me for the rest of her life AND my life. Wish me luck!
I'm glad to see Jennifer out in public performing. I hope she's holding up as well as possible after her family tragedy, because I know she would want her beloved mother, brother, and nephew to share this experience with her. I wonder what her sister is up to?
I don't like Jennifer Hudsons voice, sorry guys. Do I think she can sing, HELL YEAH but I just don't like her voice. As for the other girl, we all know she can't sing which is why is ALWAYS has an echo when she sings to make it seem her notes are carried longer than they really are. Plus I can't stand that damn yodeling she does. One question though, what the hell is a Halo and where the hell did it come from? If the song were written for Leona Lewis than SHE should have sang it, I like her voice. I didn't watch the show nor do I ever cause I think the NAACP is a load of crap now...
And just to be clear: I don't think there's anything wrong with wearing weaves, but some women do take it to the extreme (ie the ones who claim it's really their hair).
Not really interested in da mic-battle, although I do wonder who wrote those songs - just wonderin'. Mainly, I'm glad to see da greatest up there. He still floatin' & stingin'em.
I'm not fond of the NAACP for a variety of reasons and don't think much of their Image Award, so I didn't tune in. Anybody can have an awards show and dish out awards.
I may not be a regular visitor to this site and I definitely don't post that often but when I do I've figured out that it's easier to just read your first post then skip all your others. I have no idea who you are or where you live or what you look like or if you have any talent, but what I do know is that you are simple-minded, immature and absolutely obsessed with Beyonce. You remind me of the guy that assassinated John Lennon. You call others a stan but in reality that's exactly what you come across as being. It seems like you spend half your day thinking about how awful, untalented and hideous Beyonce is and how much you hate her. Girlfriend, is it that serious? Even though I've seen others tell you to drop it and move on, you simply try to defend yourself and in the next breath you go right back to bashing Beyonce. Whatever you may have to say to me after this I will never know because I will not read any more of your posts.
Beyonce is so wack these days. I really only like her stuff during her "Crazy in Love" phase, since then she's been shitting out crappy project after crappy project.
"Single Ladies" is OK, but it's the video and paradies that have kept it in the spotlight.
I love Jennifer's voice, I'm just not wild about the song selection she recorded for her debut CD. I haven't heard it all, but what I have heard so far hasn't moved me. I love seeing Jennifer perform at public events, though. I hope she continues to get invited to prime time specials.
^^^A stan is an obsessive fan that will do or say anything to remain loyal to the person(s) they admire. The term came directly from Eminem. He recorded the hit song "Stan" a few years ago and it was about a male fan that was totally obsessed with him. The accompyning video featured hundreds of Eminem lookalike clones (fans/Stans) with blond hair and blue eyes. The term has become a much used term in cyber slang to describe a star's dedicated fans and defenders. But I also think it aplies to a star's dedicated haters. That's why it's perfectly clear to all of us here that antisocial is a lifelong Beyonce stan.
dolemite have you ever heard the song "stan" by eminem? it's about a fan that grows obsessed with a celebrity, and when he thinks the celeb is ignoring his communication attempts he goes crazy and kills himself and his pregnant girlfriend. i think that's very it comes from.
Kingston, is you tying to make us us chickas jealous?
Beyonce's performance was nice but I DAMN NEAR CRIED WHEN I HEARD JENNIFER'S. FOR REAL. Made me get those goose bumps u get when u know somebody's SANGIN!
@Kingston I love weaves!!!! I dont wear wigs though...they make my head hot and stuffy, very uncomfortable to me but i have seen ones that ive admired (few and far between though:) )
As far as Bey's, im not sure what that is...but im pretty sure its not a Yak hair though. Yak hair can be curled, permed, relaxed, and colored but in reality its still synthetic, per se, because its simply not human. Also, lots of women are allergic to something in Yaki hair (I know I am- dont mean I dont wear it though lol).
I said all that to say, I'd bet that is an Italian Remy. I dont know about the color though- cause I keeps it #1 Jet Black myself.
astrological type folks...did you guys know that these two are the same sign? My mama says two folks of the same sign are like oil and water when together. They are both Virgos. My brother is a Virgo...
Modest and shy Meticulous and reliable Practical and diligent Intelligent and analytical Fussy and a worrier Overcritical and harsh Perfectionist and conservative
I'm signing on to dat "Leona Lewis is lame" shit. I never could stand the heffa. And she aint fly either. Bitch look a lot like Solange. And we know how much Solange look like she should be running in the muthafuckin Kentucky Derby!
Make a long story short I'd prolly fuck ol' horse face Leona but I'd wipe my dick on her decorative towels in her bathroom and wash dat shit off in her sink before I bounce.
I have never heard so many people hate on a person in my life. If you don't like Beyonce then turn the sound down on your TV or just turn the channel. Everyone on here that's talking about Beyonce sat there and watched the whole performance like you do every time she's on.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. People love Beyonce get over it people.
Thanx for the love, dear!! I always get a kick out of how pathetic some folks are in allowing a pixel to creep and crawl under their skin. Believe me when I say that I definitely consider it a gift! *wink*
"Stan" could be from the Eminem song, but I also thought that it was combining "stalker" and "fan." Whichever definition, Beyonce's got PLENTY of those (*side eye*).
beyonce is really a clueless bitch. this song had nothing to do with the struggle of blacks. does she not have any songs that are appropriate for these type of functions?
solange no amount of commenting is going to save your sister from herself. oh and your mom looks like those gargoyles on top of the buildings in paris:0(
I hated the song when I first heard it and hate it still. What the hell does this have to do with the NAACP. This song does not inspire me at all. Overdramatical(yes from Flava Flav) azz
Not a Beyonce stan..but U guys are HATERS....Why do it have to be Team Beyonce or Team Jennifer...If its Beyonce and any other woman performing its always some type of comparison...all this wouldnt be going on if it was Jennifer and Keyshia Cole or....Jennifer and Rihanna or Jennifer & Keyshia...
Damn black folks are so Catty, why cant it be 2 talented women, beautiful and successful...If Beyonce looked like Fantasia there wouldnt be any discussion
@ Da Shit I believe that about Virgos, I am a virgo and I am very reserved I rather get a feel for the crowd before I just put myself out there...Some will say I have no personality because if U dont know me I might appear shy...I get where Beyonce is coming from...Jennifer Hudson is the greatest comeback story ever...but with that she dont deserve more than what she deserve...I think alot of what she gets is all in symphathy...I would rather work hard and no Im wothy of the awards I receive than to receive them with the thought that I may have gotten them out of sympathy.... Jennifer Hudson is talented but she havent sold nearly as many albums as the people she is beating out for these awards she getting...which make me thinks its out of sympathy....and I work in the music business and know how it goes....everyone that is Anti-Beyonce is a JHud fan...but none of ya'll is buying her CD!! So Bey have something that she dont a fan base...and for the record there is nothing YAKI about the hair she wear its HUMAN $1,500-5,000 a wig
According to the people on this site J-Hud is the only female in the world that can sing. I turned the TV when she started singing. She is not the only person in the world who has experienced a tragedy . I can hear women with voices like her's every Sunday at church. Their is nothing orginal about her. I would never spend a dime to go see her perform or buy her music. Nothing against her personally. But she just doesn't do it for me. Not a hater just my opinon. I think her career is in acting. How is she being marketed... Oh I forgot her family got murdered. Sympathy that is the marketing stratgy. I agree with Hip Hop. It is ok to love J-Hud but you don't have to put other people down to do it. If you don't like don't buy their music. That is why I did not buy J-Hud music. But I watch her movies. It's all about what you like.
Bottom line is that ya'll on here writing a book about both of 'em and neither Beyonce or Jennifer knows or cares who the hell ya'll are! LMBAO
Both can sing and both deserve the success they have. There's no need for comparison because there's no competition. They're both paid, pretty, and talented with plenty of fans. End of story.
Oh please, but how many people sing they asses off in chruch are where she is? hmmmmmmmmm? a few! Gospel don't make mone honey! So she is riding off the death of her family? what do you want her to do? stay home for the rest of her life! the girl has a talent and she is doing her thing! you can't deny her voice is very powerful, and sad to say most of the artist that we have out right now are not that great of singers, it's all about image. There are women in chruch right now who can out sing beyonce, big deal! there is someone better then you out there. I actully think J huds acting sucks, she plays the same plus size eye rolling angry black woman! she did a great job in dream girls, but played the same eye rolling angie mama in sex and the city and the secret life of bees. I don't think she had it on her agenda for her mother, brother, and nephew to be killed! people naturally feel sympathy for her! going on that stage is hard when your biggest fan(her mother) was killed in cold blood! She can keep on singing, and I'll keep on buyingher albums!
@hIP hOP I think jennifer hudson put in her share of hard work. She sang on a cruise boat for a few years, she worked low paying jobs, she worked her ass off on American idol and still didn't win, but she kept on pushing! everything was gainst her becuase she wasn't the black version of big booty doll like beyonce! she took the spot light away from a movie that should have given beyonce an oscar!(kelly and her father said it) She went against industry rules and made a classic R4b album knowing that it may not sell well (her words) So please, she deserves every single cheer, the same that beyonce does. Contrary to beyonce she wasn't upper middle class and her father didn't drive a jag(beyonce's words) she was raised in the south side of Chicago by a single mother. She had everything against her, but she made it. Both talented ladies who took different paths to make it! I don't ever see jennifer Hudson selling millions of albums because she doesn't have that cross over appeal to white folks, but i think she will do just fine. beyonce wants that Oscar so bad, and sad tos ay she will never have it because she wants to always be the "it" girl, and look how many people have turned against her. I'm sorry if jennifer hudosn didn't keep her ass at home after her family ws slained a few months ago, She will always have my sympathy. She could have taken the easy path and leftthe entertainment industry, but she's still here!
So it's Beyonce fault that she was raised in a two parent home. And both of her parents work hard to give their family what they need. We all have differnt paths. But you can't take anything away from Beyonce she worked just as hard. It must be some people in the world who like her she made 80 millon last year.
That's what I said, reread it! people make it seem like it's just sympathy that's keeping her around, it's calle hard work and talent. many people are just tired of beyonce, nobody denies her talent.
soulwriter that was my original thought as well (pertaining to the "stan" issue). and 10:46 AGREE not 100 not 200...%400!! ( i was just watching maury earlier today)
beyonce is overated. it's really that simple. she's incredibly vapid and devoid of any personality, naturally it shows in her acting skills or lack there of. what goes up must come down, her career is fine tuning to a slow burnout and soon she will join the ranks of JJ and whitney and all the has beens that nobody cares about in this, especially with this struggling economy.
Look, I think the bitch Bey is just ripe for a bitch like me to slide in there and take full and unapologetic advantage of her ass.
She aint got no girlfriends' shoulders to cry on; she aint got no crew of gangsta bitches ready to cut a bitch for her if need be; her singing/acting/jigabooing career is basically over and out; she has shamed/embarassed the Obamas with her nipples out at the Inaug. Ball; she is accused of stalking J-Hud and every other young Black woman in her peer group; Etta James HERSELF is talking about cutting and gutting Bey; Jay-Z aint laying the pipe like a good husband should be doing, and the innocent public (us) has gotten tired of this weave junkie and is ready for her to exit stage what? Left!... This mofo's self esteem has got to be in the pits of Hell by now. So I think I'll fly out to New York or wherever she at and pretend to be her homegirl. Give her a few words of "sista-ly" advice to lean on. You know, tell her she IS ALL THAT and fuck what everybody else is saying 'cause they just jealous. Tell her she IS prettier and a better singer than J-Hud and a better actress than Halle Berry, and that she should wipe her tears because her House of Dereon jeans DON'T make her ass look fat like people lying and saying, and that JayZ DOES love her so she shouldn't be listening to the lies that they spreading about him fucking other hoes.
Meanwhile, she can wipe her tears as she's paying for my Louis Vitton luggage, my Chanel gowns and shoes, my Tiffany and Cartier bling, and my plane tickets to and fro from across the waters, my Gucci, Prada, and Dolce and Gabana handbags, outfits, and accessories, and put that Jag in my own name - not her name, and help me pay for a small piece of real estate in Texas - nothing big and fancy, just a three bedroom lair somewhere nice.
That bitch need a friend right about now, and I'm good at being a bitch's friend.
Would you be willing to babysit lil Daniel, look after the lace fronts, stay dressed in HOE (sorry HOD), shave her armpits and cooch, and even be her bosom buddie?
LOL! I'll babysit the fuck outta lil Daniel - all day long and give his ass some coloring books and crayons to get with; and I'd plait the shit out the lace fronts (I am not shame to touch, wash, comb, or curl or style a mofo's weave); I'll rock the shit outta of some tacky ass HOD; them hairy ass armpits aint shit to deal with - where the razor at? The cooch? I don't know; I don't usually fuck with another bitch's pussy, but if she needs some tips on how to wash that mofo, I'm there with tips and advice. Her bosom buddie? I don't know what you mean by that, but if the girl need a friend/homie, I'm there. As long as she break me off some of that cheese she racking up. Hell, I might even hook her up with some dick from one of MY homeboys since ol' Jay don't appear to be slanging the meat like he need to be doing. I believe that if he WAS beating the pussy up on the regular and handling his husbandly business, she wouldn't be so much in the public. If my man was dicking me down everyday and every night, I would never come outside. I'd lay in the bed all day - just fucked and satisfied - and say "Fuck the world; I got some hot dick right here." LOL!
Fuck what'chall talking about. That girl need a friend right now, and I don't mind being a friend, but I don't come cheap. For real.
I wanted to give J. Hud a standing ovation while I was watching the show ... lol ... she's absolutely beautiful ... and has a profound voice ... I think the public has a tendency to appreciate those stars who we know are going through things in the midst of life's adversity and still express their talent ... T.I par example ... great performance ... Bey was nice too ...
I'd even be willing to put myself out there and go sco' a quarter sack of that good green shit for her ass, as long as she pay for my sack and Garcia y Vegas too, and fix her a tight ass drank 'cause I know she gotta be illing right about now and need to get her mofo-ing head tight and right. I'm serious. This shit has gotta be fucking with her concentration. I bet she feel like she can't get no love nowhere. I'd roll a good one for her ass while she sit up and fantasize about whooping all them hoes (Kelly, Rhianna, Michelle, Solange, too)...
dolemiet, where u from? u are so cra-zy. i almost get where u comin from. shit i feel u. hell yeah, roll a fat nice one for beyaki and let her hit that muhfucka once or twice i bet she'll forget all about j-fud etta and the rest of em. lol:)
Jennifer, I sure wish it was you that performed at the Inaugural Balls. Jennifer + Aretha on Inauguration Day 2009 would have been so much more meaningful (at least to me).
I listened to 'em both again and the diff to me is dat Bey always sounds so top-40. JHud sing it like dem bomb-ass sistas in church do - da ones dat could prob'ly get with any of these songstresses, but if you'ont go to dat church, you'd neva know about 'em. Real tizzle.
I laugh at these posts! Not a huge fan of either, but I do own a few Beyonce/DC CD's, but they both are talented. In general, people love tragedy more than victory so they're looking for Beyonce to fail. With all the tragedy in J. Hud's life, I guess people feel she needs a break. If J. Hud stays in the spotlight as long as Beyonce has been folks gonna get tired of her, too. -Jay

Jennifer Hudson is the best!
She did such an amazing job.
God Bless J-Hud.
Fabulous!!!!
WOW! Stellar!!!!
American Beauty!
Beautifull(with two l's)!!!!
I love Beyonce's Halo song!
She did a fantastic job! That girl can sang!
She's performing any and everywhere now. Why oh why couldn't she do the inauguration? Why?
Beyonce is Pure Talent!
Love them both. Shout out to Bey. I too love Halo @ 10:09am
Boy she giving Yawnce a run for her money ain't she? so much for treating her bad when they were filming together
Boy she giving Yawnce a run for her money ain't she? so much for treating her bad when they were filming together
I hate that bloody "Halo" song and don't care who sings it or what it is about. I rest my case.
B did exactly what I thought she would do, and Jennifer was simply EFFERVESCENT last night, so happy for her!!!
I absolutely LOVE Jennifer's voice, and even though sometimes I think she is a fashion disaster she will always get a pass on fashion from me.
...when they gonna sang at the Soul Train awards?!...nevermind....
I'm so mad I missed the actual show, but I really enjoyed Jennifer's performance. As for Beyodel, I tried but I just couldn't get through hers. Sawwy, stans, but she is not the epitome of a good SINGER...she should just stick to poppin' her coochie and yodeling silly bubble gum pop songs(which I guess is considered 'performing' to some folks). *shrugs*
Halo was just okay, but people gave Jennifer a standing ovaiation. I watched it and I liked Jennifers voice. Bey drop that Sasha act. Oh and thank your spouse next time like Will Smith did .
@ 10:21
That song was originally written for Leona Lewis, and I think she would have done it justice. There are just some songs (such as Halo) that Beyodel's voice is not fit for, but apparently she hasn't gotten the memo.
@ hope
I was wondering if Jennifer got a standing o after she sang...good for her!
Did you pick up on anything during Beyodel's acceptance speech? I was reading another blog and someone said she looked like she was on the verge of tears and when the camera man panned to the Cowardly Lion's twin (Mama Knowles)they said she looked hot as fish grease.
Walking out...a beyonce post??? oh hell no. the haters gonna be all over this. bye everyone.
*ignores Beyonce video*
Jennifer did a great job. I'm really amazed at how far she's come. She comes out on stage like she's been doing this forever. It's become so natural to her.
They both sound great.
But UHM The Halo song was not relevant to the topic, isn't that song about loving someone what does that have to do with the civil rights movement?
Jen's song WAS relevant to the topic.
Halo is a good song. As well as, Disappear and Broken Hearted-Girl. These are pop in your MP3 and ride on I-75 type songs.
I love J Hud as much as the next music lover but her album was not the best last year. None of the songs were exceptional but with her voice you can get away with that... and thats definitely not to say that I am... was all that either. I think both albums were nice. Not classics, but nice. I always enjoy new music, especially when they artist isnt reminding me of the boys back on Bankhead.
Jennifer did her thing!
Beyonce started off singing and then the back-up track took over.
Gotta say. Won't be the first time it has ever been said, I know.
Beyonce is a beautiful girl with the make-up, weave, expensive dresses and all. Well trained to "perform" with the shaking of the head and all.
But, she is SO O-V-E-R R-A-T-E-D. I just decided I never want to hear that damn song Halo again because of her.
I can respect her hard work, but there are way too many singers who blow her out of the water! Starting with Jennifer Hudson. Jennifer stands still--flat foot KILLS a song with her vocal talent. It is straight from her heart when she sings.
Beyonce shakes that damn weave like it will get her added energy or some shyt.
I dare Beyonce to sing next to the lady Sheree at my church and try that. Sheree won't ever seek out fame and fortune, but she will out sing Yawnce WITHOUT a microphone. I have seen her sing herself into a coma. While Yawnce does all that up and down scaling crap that phucks up the whole song.
Ugh. Just can't stand her. There. I said it.
@ Nikki
Thats one of the things I dont like about Beyonce. She never seems appropriate. I could have thought of more fitting songs for her to sing, I agree. But I think in her mind (LOL) Halo could work...she does sing about saving grace and such...[shrugs]
@ Da Shit Ok I thought it was just me.
As usaually J-Hud did her thang,never a let down..The girl can SANG..
Jennifer has lost alot of weight,but I wounder if she is having a baby because that lil pouch hasnt went anywhere.U know they say every birth theres a dealth,and it's the same the other way every dealth theres a birth...
Anyone going to comment on JHUD performing someone else's song at such an event........orrrrrrr are we just going to trash Beyonce....
Bedazzler performs someone else's song, and STILL can't choose something appropriate.
She might as well have sung 'Single Ladies'.
Beyonce = Jessica Simpson singing.
Jennifer = Jennifer Holliday singing.
Here's a question: Why don't Bey's stylist try something new instead of that dry ass, prairie grass weave? Her shit ALWAYS look nappy and dry at the roots, but then soft and silky and fake three inches below. And it never fucking matches her real hair color. Jennifer might wear weaves, too, but at least her shit is cut into a nice modern style. I bet her weave stylist is an actual professional wig maker because only a professional wig maker can make weave look good on a woman's head like Jennifer.
When them hoes fight, call me so I can get my front row seat. Until then, they both really need to exit stage left. And I love me some J-Hud and I feel sorry for the tragic loss of her family, but even she is starting to wear thin...
The Real Dolemite!
at least J-Hud aint promoting a song like she wrote and own it like beyodle does. it seems like yodle was off since it wasn't bout her all night. she so fake anyway.
The weave thing. Again, nothing is wrong with a little beauty stuffing, but damn. Can we just be modest in doing so?
Everybody just can't look like Goldi Locks all the time.
Side note. The dresses Halle Berry wore last night were damn gorgeous. Real talk.
I want to do whatchamaface hair. Her mama's too. They both have wore me out with the extra. *Sigh*
@ Nikki
Since I missed the show, I didn't know what the theme was. But no one should be surprised that Beyodel sang a song that was totally IRRELEVANT to the setting. This DEFINITELY would have been the perfect time to sing someone else's song. *sniggling*

Sorry for the double post!
I like both songs, I think they are both talnted in their own ways! I love halo! but I think her image is not helping her music! Jennifer's voice is so powerful! she sings her music with emotion!
@11:17 AM
If jennifer hudson was 40 pounds lighter and light skinned she would be big also! the people who love jennifer are classical trained singers who don't sell millions of albums! black folks love to pu ligh skinned folks on a pedestal! I know because I'm light skinned. Jennifer hudson is more of a gospel singer with a powerful voice, she could never do pop like beyonce whose voice is softer!
CU @ "whatchamaface".
Jennifer just sings it and brings it.
I like Jennifer because she apparently doesn't feel like she needs an alter-ego (a la Sasha Fierce) to attract attention.
@ 12:01. I really didn't know yawnce was in a category.
They got categories for screeching cats with weave from the dollar store? My bad.
Anybody with a computer can make pop music. Isn't that right, Beyonce?
I wish she would pop her azz back to Texas and stay there. Be still sometimes when she sing. That annoys me...all that twitching around and carrying on.
Come on, RWS ladies: what Yaki number and color is Bey's weave?
Black women KNOW weave like the back of they hands...

Jenny is thick and dark, just like I love 'em. Y'all think she'll give me a pair of her panties if I ask nicely? -Kingston
Dear Beyonce:
I know you believe the whole world is just sitting here waiting for you to show up and "make things better". I just want you to know, I would prefer for you to give us a break now. I want to see you further your formal education, go natural, be less jealous hearted, be less controlling and to stop hating it so much when other young ladies out sing and shine you. I know you mama'nem got you thinking no one is better than you. I am mad at them for that. But, I don't want to see you anymore for a while.
But, I love you though. Take care.
GOD I LOVE THAT MILK CHOCOLATE GURL J-HUD IMA WAIT FOR YOU

Come on guys, Beyonce is very talented like Beyonce. However, I have had enough Beyonce in my life for the time being. make some babies, rock your real hair, kill us with your bad acting, and maybe gain a few pounds! come back with a real story to tell!
@ Kingston
Your post is a sweeping generalization for real. I happen to be a Black woman who has NEVER worn a weave, so I couldn't begin to tell you what color/brand she's rockin'.
Can someone tell me who sang first (Jennifer or Beyodel)?
Two beautiful women... two beautiful voices. Bey is just in the spotlight everywhere you look and I think her audience is ready for her to take a break. J-Hud is truly a blessed story and people want her to continue to step out and be seen.
Out of all the black women in my office only one wears a weave, but some of them will slap a wig on. Some have been there for years and have never exposed their natural hair. I can only imagine what would make someone hide their natural hair up under some funky wig or weave for years. Things can't be that bad, can it? That's self-inflicted social bondage.
Didn't mean to offend the ladies, Anti. The reason I asked is because my girl wears weaves for different looks, and she got so much of it packed back in the closet. Everywhere I turn there's a weave here, and a wig there. But I love her to the depths of my bones. Her and her drawers, lol! I got her a nice ass little piece of finger bling for Valentines day. She gone love me for the rest of her life AND my life. Wish me luck!
-Kingston
I'm glad to see Jennifer out in public performing. I hope she's holding up as well as possible after her family tragedy, because I know she would want her beloved mother, brother, and nephew to share this experience with her. I wonder what her sister is up to?
I don't like Jennifer Hudsons voice, sorry guys. Do I think she can sing, HELL YEAH but I just don't like her voice. As for the other girl, we all know she can't sing which is why is ALWAYS has an echo when she sings to make it seem her notes are carried longer than they really are. Plus I can't stand that damn yodeling she does.
One question though, what the hell is a Halo and where the hell did it come from? If the song were written for Leona Lewis than SHE should have sang it, I like her voice.
I didn't watch the show nor do I ever cause I think the NAACP is a load of crap now...
@ Kingston
I wasn't offended...I was just sayin'! ;)
And just to be clear: I don't think there's anything wrong with wearing weaves, but some women do take it to the extreme (ie the ones who claim it's really their hair).
Leona is lame and bores me even more than Beyonce. I'm glad Leona didn't perform "Halo". It was boring enough with Beyonce.
Not really interested in da mic-battle, although I do wonder who wrote those songs - just wonderin'. Mainly, I'm glad to see da greatest up there. He still floatin' & stingin'em.
I'm not fond of the NAACP for a variety of reasons and don't think much of their Image Award, so I didn't tune in. Anybody can have an awards show and dish out awards.
I dont watch it either... I know all the good parts will be on youtube the following day.
Jennifer's high notes can bring tears to glass eyes.
Who said Leona Lewis is lame?
You deserve an NAACP award for telling the truth.
"The Impossible Dream" is an old inspirational/motivational standard/classic from way back. It's in the same category as "Greatest Love of All".
To antisocial,
I may not be a regular visitor to this site and I definitely don't post that often but when I do I've figured out that it's easier to just read your first post then skip all your others. I have no idea who you are or where you live or what you look like or if you have any talent, but what I do know is that you are simple-minded, immature and absolutely obsessed with Beyonce. You remind me of the guy that assassinated John Lennon. You call others a stan but in reality that's exactly what you come across as being. It seems like you spend half your day thinking about how awful, untalented and hideous Beyonce is and how much you hate her. Girlfriend, is it that serious? Even though I've seen others tell you to drop it and move on, you simply try to defend yourself and in the next breath you go right back to bashing Beyonce. Whatever you may have to say to me after this I will never know because I will not read any more of your posts.
Beyonce is so wack these days. I really only like her stuff during her "Crazy in Love" phase, since then she's been shitting out crappy project after crappy project.
"Single Ladies" is OK, but it's the video and paradies that have kept it in the spotlight.
@ Anon 1:29
You don't post that often? Keep it that way Solange.
But JHud tore the roof of the mutha!
I am not a fan of her voice on up-tempo R&B songs but that girl can sing the hell out of a ballad.
I love Jennifer's voice, I'm just not wild about the song selection she recorded for her debut CD. I haven't heard it all, but what I have heard so far hasn't moved me. I love seeing Jennifer perform at public events, though. I hope she continues to get invited to prime time specials.
What the fuck is a Stan? For real, I wanna know.
The Real Dolemite!
I think "Stan" comes from a song about an uber-ambitious fan named, well, "Stan".
^^^A stan is an obsessive fan that will do or say anything to remain loyal to the person(s) they admire. The term came directly from Eminem. He recorded the hit song "Stan" a few years ago and it was about a male fan that was totally obsessed with him. The accompyning video featured hundreds of Eminem lookalike clones (fans/Stans) with blond hair and blue eyes. The term has become a much used term in cyber slang to describe a star's dedicated fans and defenders. But I also think it aplies to a star's dedicated haters. That's why it's perfectly clear to all of us here that antisocial is a lifelong Beyonce stan.
dolemite have you ever heard the song "stan" by eminem? it's about a fan that grows obsessed with a celebrity, and when he thinks the celeb is ignoring his communication attempts he goes crazy and kills himself and his pregnant girlfriend.
i think that's very it comes from.
Kingston, is you tying to make us us chickas jealous?
there you go dolemite!!
and jenny fucking KILLLED it. she is so amazing. i'm about to become a jenny stan!
Thanks for the school lesson, everyone! I never knew what a Stan was, and I hear so many people using the term.
I'm glad y'all schooled this Old School.
The Real Dolemite!
Beyonce's performance was nice but I DAMN NEAR CRIED WHEN I HEARD JENNIFER'S. FOR REAL. Made me get those goose bumps u get when u know somebody's SANGIN!
@Kingston
I love weaves!!!! I dont wear wigs though...they make my head hot and stuffy, very uncomfortable to me but i have seen ones that ive admired (few and far between though:) )
As far as Bey's, im not sure what that is...but im pretty sure its not a Yak hair though. Yak hair can be curled, permed, relaxed, and colored but in reality its still synthetic, per se, because its simply not human. Also, lots of women are allergic to something in Yaki hair (I know I am- dont mean I dont wear it though lol).
I said all that to say, I'd bet that is an Italian Remy. I dont know about the color though- cause I keeps it #1 Jet Black myself.
Gettin off the soapbox now:)
J.Hud just gave me chills. She sung that song with such a passion!
Kinda OT but
astrological type folks...did you guys know that these two are the same sign? My mama says two folks of the same sign are like oil and water when together. They are both Virgos. My brother is a Virgo...
Modest and shy
Meticulous and reliable
Practical and diligent
Intelligent and analytical
Fussy and a worrier
Overcritical and harsh
Perfectionist and conservative
Interesting...
I'm signing on to dat "Leona Lewis is lame" shit. I never could stand the heffa. And she aint fly either. Bitch look a lot like Solange. And we know how much Solange look like she should be running in the muthafuckin Kentucky Derby!
Make a long story short I'd prolly fuck ol' horse face Leona but I'd wipe my dick on her decorative towels in her bathroom and wash dat shit off in her sink before I bounce.
lol...(I need Jesus.)
DaShit. I'm a Virgo and believe I could mix very well with either Beyonce or JHud...for bout 30-45 minutes at a time :)
@Bee Gee We know you can hold your own in the ring
And Blue, dont find Jesus just yet. I got these YTs logging on RWS cause you and a couple of others are some fools LOL

@ Anonymous 11:39 AM
YOU SOUND LIKE A FOOL
I have never heard so many people hate on a person in my life. If you don't like Beyonce then turn the sound down on your TV or just turn the channel. Everyone on here that's talking about Beyonce sat there and watched the whole performance like you do every time she's on.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. People love Beyonce get over it people.
@ 1:29

Thanx for the love, dear!! I always get a kick out of how pathetic some folks are in allowing a pixel to creep and crawl under their skin. Believe me when I say that I definitely consider it a gift! *wink*
@ 2:27
Talk about twisting the definition of a word to suit one's purpose. Thanx for the shout-out, though! *smirk*
^^^Low self-esteem but if it makes you feel betta to try to play it off as if the truth just rolls off your back then go for it boo.
When it comes to antisocial stan means ST-upid A-ss N-iggah!
^^ & 5:37
*smooches*
"Stan" could be from the Eminem song, but I also thought that it was combining "stalker" and "fan." Whichever definition, Beyonce's got PLENTY of those (*side eye*).
J.HUD KILLED IT! HER PERFORMANCE WAS OUTSTANDING. AS FAR AS BEYONCE'S PERFORMANCE IT WAS JUST OK IT DIDN'T DO IT FOR ME.
beyonce is really a clueless bitch. this song had nothing to do with the struggle of blacks. does she not have any songs that are appropriate for these type of functions?
solange no amount of commenting is going to save your sister from herself. oh and your mom looks like those gargoyles on top of the buildings in paris:0(
I hated the song when I first heard it and hate it still. What the hell does this have to do with the NAACP. This song does not inspire me at all. Overdramatical(yes from Flava Flav) azz
Sorry, was talking about Halo. JHud's performance brought me to tears. You go girl!! LOL
Not a Beyonce stan..but U guys are HATERS....Why do it have to be Team Beyonce or Team Jennifer...If its Beyonce and any other woman performing its always some type of comparison...all this wouldnt be going on if it was Jennifer and Keyshia Cole or....Jennifer and Rihanna or Jennifer & Keyshia...
Damn black folks are so Catty, why cant it be 2 talented women, beautiful and successful...If Beyonce looked like Fantasia there wouldnt be any discussion
Damn a "Stan"! Keep on keeping on, Jennifer.
@ Da Shit
I believe that about Virgos, I am a virgo and I am very reserved I rather get a feel for the crowd before I just put myself out there...Some will say I have no personality because if U dont know me I might appear shy...I get where Beyonce is coming from...Jennifer Hudson is the greatest comeback story ever...but with that she dont deserve more than what she deserve...I think alot of what she gets is all in symphathy...I would rather work hard and no Im wothy of the awards I receive than to receive them with the thought that I may have gotten them out of sympathy.... Jennifer Hudson is talented but she havent sold nearly as many albums as the people she is beating out for these awards she getting...which make me thinks its out of sympathy....and I work in the music business and know how it goes....everyone that is Anti-Beyonce is a JHud fan...but none of ya'll is buying her CD!! So Bey have something that she dont a fan base...and for the record there is nothing YAKI about the hair she wear its HUMAN $1,500-5,000 a wig
According to the people on this site J-Hud is the only female in the world that can sing. I turned the TV when she started singing. She is not the only person in the world who has experienced a tragedy . I can hear women with voices like her's every Sunday at church. Their is nothing orginal about her. I would never spend a dime to go see her perform or buy her music. Nothing against her personally. But she just doesn't do it for me. Not a hater just my opinon. I think her career is in acting. How is she being marketed... Oh I forgot her family got murdered. Sympathy that is the marketing stratgy. I agree with Hip Hop. It is ok to love J-Hud but you don't have to put other people down to do it. If you don't like don't buy their music. That is why I did not buy J-Hud music. But I watch her movies. It's all about what you like.
Bottom line is that ya'll on here writing a book about both of 'em and neither Beyonce or Jennifer knows or cares who the hell ya'll are! LMBAO
Both can sing and both deserve the success they have. There's no need for comparison because there's no competition. They're both paid, pretty, and talented with plenty of fans. End of story.
^...is why gossip blogs are called gossip blogs...

@9:12 PM
Oh please, but how many people sing they asses off in chruch are where she is? hmmmmmmmmm? a few! Gospel don't make mone honey! So she is riding off the death of her family? what do you want her to do? stay home for the rest of her life! the girl has a talent and she is doing her thing! you can't deny her voice is very powerful, and sad to say most of the artist that we have out right now are not that great of singers, it's all about image. There are women in chruch right now who can out sing beyonce, big deal! there is someone better then you out there. I actully think J huds acting sucks, she plays the same plus size eye rolling angry black woman! she did a great job in dream girls, but played the same eye rolling angie mama in sex and the city and the secret life of bees. I don't think she had it on her agenda for her mother, brother, and nephew to be killed! people naturally feel sympathy for her! going on that stage is hard when your biggest fan(her mother) was killed in cold blood! She can keep on singing, and I'll keep on buyingher albums!
@hIP hOP
I think jennifer hudson put in her share of hard work. She sang on a cruise boat for a few years, she worked low paying jobs, she worked her ass off on American idol and still didn't win, but she kept on pushing! everything was gainst her becuase she wasn't the black version of big booty doll like beyonce! she took the spot light away from a movie that should have given beyonce an oscar!(kelly and her father said it) She went against industry rules and made a classic R4b album knowing that it may not sell well (her words) So please, she deserves every single cheer, the same that beyonce does. Contrary to beyonce she wasn't upper middle class and her father didn't drive a jag(beyonce's words) she was raised in the south side of Chicago by a single mother. She had everything against her, but she made it. Both talented ladies who took different paths to make it! I don't ever see jennifer Hudson selling millions of albums because she doesn't have that cross over appeal to white folks, but i think she will do just fine. beyonce wants that Oscar so bad, and sad tos ay she will never have it because she wants to always be the "it" girl, and look how many people have turned against her. I'm sorry if jennifer hudosn didn't keep her ass at home after her family ws slained a few months ago, She will always have my sympathy. She could have taken the easy path and leftthe entertainment industry, but she's still here!
So it's Beyonce fault that she was raised in a two parent home. And both of her parents work hard to give their family what they need. We all have differnt paths. But you can't take anything away from Beyonce she worked just as hard.
It must be some people in the world who like her she made 80 millon last year.
@10:30 PM
That's what I said, reread it! people make it seem like it's just sympathy that's keeping her around, it's calle hard work and talent. many people are just tired of beyonce, nobody denies her talent.
soulwriter that was my original thought as well (pertaining to the "stan" issue).
and 10:46 AGREE not 100 not 200...%400!! ( i was just watching maury earlier today)
@10:02
You sure you aiming that rant at the right person?
beyonce is overated. it's really that simple. she's incredibly vapid and devoid of any personality, naturally it shows in her acting skills or lack there of. what goes up must come down, her career is fine tuning to a slow burnout and soon she will join the ranks of JJ and whitney and all the has beens that nobody cares about in this, especially with this struggling economy.
Look, I think the bitch Bey is just ripe for a bitch like me to slide in there and take full and unapologetic advantage of her ass.
She aint got no girlfriends' shoulders to cry on; she aint got no crew of gangsta bitches ready to cut a bitch for her if need be; her singing/acting/jigabooing career is basically over and out; she has shamed/embarassed the Obamas with her nipples out at the Inaug. Ball; she is accused of stalking J-Hud and every other young Black woman in her peer group; Etta James HERSELF is talking about cutting and gutting Bey; Jay-Z aint laying the pipe like a good husband should be doing, and the innocent public (us) has gotten tired of this weave junkie and is ready for her to exit stage what? Left!... This mofo's self esteem has got to be in the pits of Hell by now. So I think I'll fly out to New York or wherever she at and pretend to be her homegirl. Give her a few words of "sista-ly" advice to lean on. You know, tell her she IS ALL THAT and fuck what everybody else is saying 'cause they just jealous. Tell her she IS prettier and a better singer than J-Hud and a better actress than Halle Berry, and that she should wipe her tears because her House of Dereon jeans DON'T make her ass look fat like people lying and saying, and that JayZ DOES love her so she shouldn't be listening to the lies that they spreading about him fucking other hoes.
Meanwhile, she can wipe her tears as she's paying for my Louis Vitton luggage, my Chanel gowns and shoes, my Tiffany and Cartier bling, and my plane tickets to and fro from across the waters, my Gucci, Prada, and Dolce and Gabana handbags, outfits, and accessories, and put that Jag in my own name - not her name, and help me pay for a small piece of real estate in Texas - nothing big and fancy, just a three bedroom lair somewhere nice.
That bitch need a friend right about now, and I'm good at being a bitch's friend.
The Real Dolemite!
JENNIFER HUDSON, BRAVO!!
@ Dolemite
Would you be willing to babysit lil Daniel, look after the lace fronts, stay dressed in HOE (sorry HOD), shave her armpits and cooch, and even be her bosom buddie?
LOL! I'll babysit the fuck outta lil Daniel - all day long and give his ass some coloring books and crayons to get with; and I'd plait the shit out the lace fronts (I am not shame to touch, wash, comb, or curl or style a mofo's weave); I'll rock the shit outta of some tacky ass HOD; them hairy ass armpits aint shit to deal with - where the razor at? The cooch? I don't know; I don't usually fuck with another bitch's pussy, but if she needs some tips on how to wash that mofo, I'm there with tips and advice. Her bosom buddie? I don't know what you mean by that, but if the girl need a friend/homie, I'm there. As long as she break me off some of that cheese she racking up. Hell, I might even hook her up with some dick from one of MY homeboys since ol' Jay don't appear to be slanging the meat like he need to be doing. I believe that if he WAS beating the pussy up on the regular and handling his husbandly business, she wouldn't be so much in the public. If my man was dicking me down everyday and every night, I would never come outside. I'd lay in the bed all day - just fucked and satisfied - and say "Fuck the world; I got some hot dick right here." LOL!
Fuck what'chall talking about. That girl need a friend right now, and I don't mind being a friend, but I don't come cheap. For real.
Dolemite!
I wanted to give J. Hud a standing ovation while I was watching the show ... lol ... she's absolutely beautiful ... and has a profound voice ... I think the public has a tendency to appreciate those stars who we know are going through things in the midst of life's adversity and still express their talent ... T.I par example ... great performance ... Bey was nice too ...
I'd even be willing to put myself out there and go sco' a quarter sack of that good green shit for her ass, as long as she pay for my sack and Garcia y Vegas too, and fix her a tight ass drank 'cause I know she gotta be illing right about now and need to get her mofo-ing head tight and right. I'm serious. This shit has gotta be fucking with her concentration. I bet she feel like she can't get no love nowhere. I'd roll a good one for her ass while she sit up and fantasize about whooping all them hoes (Kelly, Rhianna, Michelle, Solange, too)...
Dolemite!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Wear a condom if you get ur freak on tonight. :-)
dolemiet, where u from? u are so cra-zy. i almost get where u comin from. shit i feel u. hell yeah, roll a fat nice one for beyaki and let her hit that muhfucka once or twice i bet she'll forget all about j-fud etta and the rest of em. lol:)
Jennifer, you deserve every award you have earned so far and I hope there are more awards to come.
They killed it they are amazing!
youtube.com/tiaknows6
Jennifer, I sure wish it was you that performed at the Inaugural Balls. Jennifer + Aretha on Inauguration Day 2009 would have been so much more meaningful (at least to me).
I listened to 'em both again and the diff to me is dat Bey always sounds so top-40. JHud sing it like dem bomb-ass sistas in church do - da ones dat could prob'ly get with any of these songstresses, but if you'ont go to dat church, you'd neva know about 'em. Real tizzle.
Bee Gee's got a new pic!
Dolomite you're so crazy! She's probably considering your offer right now. (You know she reads these blogs.)
I'm bored right now! I wish Snitch posted on weekends.
J Hud did a great job as usual. She's one of the top vocalists in the game right now.
Love the song
I laugh at these posts! Not a huge fan of either, but I do own a few Beyonce/DC CD's, but they both are talented. In general, people love tragedy more than victory so they're looking for Beyonce to fail. With all the tragedy in J. Hud's life, I guess people feel she needs a break. If J. Hud stays in the spotlight as long as Beyonce has been folks gonna get tired of her, too.
-Jay
