Beyonce Knowles' new video kills me. I love it.

My wife and I are loyal Soup watchers on Fridays and they found a real gem for us last week. We put it on to bring smile to our faces when we need it.

I mean, man, this video is absolutely and unintentionally hilarious. I think the scenes of Knowles dancing are so funny, I can not believe this video is supposed to be real. It looks like a Weird Al video making fun of a less funny dance video.

I don’t know. It just strikes us as hilarious.

Here is the original Soup clip.

Here is the video, with in my opinion, the most funny dancing section of all time.

Enjoy. :slight_smile:

Both places asked me to watch some stupid 30 second commercial before the video.

I’m sure you’re correct. :slight_smile:

oh

mah

gawd
THAT VIDEO IS AWESOME

(favorited)

My first thought was that choreographer should be fired, my second thought was that Beyonce did the moves anyway.

Erhm. AdBlocker?

Nah, doesn’t work on youtube. you watch the ad, or wait the time anyway, before you see the video. It’s fair.

BTW, I tried to watch it…didn’t get much past a minute, if that. I like Beyonce, but my god, the song is stupid and so is the video. >.< Sorry!

Uh, it works for me. I’ve never seen an ad on Youtube. It just loads and plays.

You do realize the enjoyment is from the horrible hilariouslness right?

Her dancing is always crazy like that. I don’t think it looks good at all, but in the case of this video it is definitely hilariously awful. Whoever thought this was a good concept for a video was seriously on acid.

And the joke about Destiny’s Child was awesome, lol.

I simply had to post this thread to bring you all joy. Every time I watch the video(starting 48 seconds in), it makes me tear up from laughing.

That reminds me of The Exorcist. It’s like a demon entered her body and started thrashing her around.

I couldn’t sit through the whole video so maybe this becomes more clear later on, but I can’t figure out whether the world is a post-apocalyptic wasteland because it’s run by girls, or whether girls only rise to power after everything goes to hell.

Girl power rearing its ugly head again?

Looks like a Monty Python sketch. Minister of Silly Dances, anyone?

And the song? My God. What a load of feces.
mmm

No. Don’t try to understand. Just take in the glory of the horrible dancing section that starts at 48 seconds in. There is just something about it that is horrendous…and brightens my day a lot. :slight_smile:

Well, I clicked on your link, but it brings me to the ad/beginning of the video.
I have adblocker and still get the ads, so I guess there’s something I’m not flipping on/off in adblocker? I’m looking…Blocking the ad manually <at the screen> just gives me a blank screen and never moves on to the video. Now I have to figure out how to unblock it… >.<

A little backstory:
The hookers who rise up against the pimp dancing their way to freedom at the end of the “Love is a Battlefield” video run off and start their own society under a freeway overpass. Nearly 30 years later, having established an estrogen powered utopian hermitage, the outside world discovers them. The world of pimps and scolding fathers is crumbling under the weight of its own arrogance. They hope to rob this peaceful society of their powers. The Sororal Council rise to confront the interlopers and assert their Artemisian dominance.

The feathers on her vest and shoes aren’t helping.

Yep. Same here.

Really bad dancing… really terrible song.

Gorgeous Friesian horse at the beginning tho.

Gosh. I don’t know what to say. um…
