I think "Highway to hell" would be appropriate for the occasion, if he were inaugurated in January 2017.

Nah, my mom would still be bitching about how I wasn't livin' right.
...even if I was a multi-millionaire, setting her up in a big house of her own, with a maid, personal chef, and live-in masseuse. She'd find some reason to justify her own negativity. My mother has become much more accepting of my modeling, once some of the money it made me went into supporting her. Retirement on a govt. pension in Russia truly is no fun.

The same could be said about random photographers on the internet, who knows? Word. Especially insecure photographers that thread jack a Sony thread by stating, "I don't know why people shoot with Sony." The thread was about Sony's pancake lens.
Nothing worse than seeing men that are drama queens. It's worse than drama queen women.

I could care less about what happened at the inauguration. Her music is not all that......her husband is not the best rapper alive and they both should go away and stop trying to hog the spotlight so much. Not a fan myself. But you know what? As long as their is a consumer that will buy their music, they're not going anywhere or stealing anything. I think that Jay Z's rap is whack too. But, his fans have a different opinion. Same applies to Beyonce. They're not ruling my world. I know how to turn my t.v. and radio off.

My mom knows nothing about the actual details of my life. She knows nothing about me modeling for years, or any of that stuff. I never introduced her to people I dated after a point, because she talked shit about all of them.
When I finally told her, late last year, I was going back to school so I could work in the fitness industry, she said that was a job for "dumb trophy wives." I thought she would be proud. Nope. Should have known.
She's still upset over the fact I'm divorced, and I left my husband years ago now. Still pretends to her family like I'm married, because it shames her so much that I'm single and have no children, and do not work for a public school, or something like that.
Now, she's just badgering me about why I'm not a physical therapist. I don't want to be a physical therapist; I want to train people, because it's fun and I enjoy it.

/threadjack I'm sorry you're dealing with that. In my humble opinion/experience you should do what makes you happy. If you do that you'll be your best and prosperous. That positivity will attract others.
It's tough for people to transition from what they believe. Especially when they resent your success. Prove to them through your success is a better way to live.
Never allow someone's negativity to dictate your direction.
That's all, I'll get off my soap box now.....

why are people still so worked up about her lip syncing?? Is a person not allowed to have a day where their voice is weak, or they were just getting over a cold but had confirmed months before that they would do it?
I get annoyed when people like Ashley Simpson (very old example I know), or Britney Spears make excuses for their lip syncing, because we all know they can't sing anyways.
Got forbid people like Adele, Beyonce, or even fucking Whitney Houston at one time in their lives sang to a back track because their throat wasn't 100% that day.
People are just trying their luck at any excuse to bash the president, and its throwing anyone near him on the train. *shrug*

Beyonce is a HUGE star and a great singer. She did a fine job at the inauguration even if she did sing with a backing track. She didn't "sing" anything. She hit PLAY on a CD player and proved she was a poser in front of our nation. If a GODDAMNED 3 YEAR OLD KID kid can sing the Star Spangled Banner better than a "professional" then, as far as I'm concerned, she's just one big epic fail.

I'm not following the Inside Edition drama.
...and she can sing no doubt but didn't do justice to Etta's 'At Last'.
As for the Anthem and 'live' performances, sing it live.

*after I compliment you in another thread*
I don't hate anything or anyone.
I just say what I think.
After singing with a bunch of old blues musicians, you get a little opinionated about these things.
I like some of Beyonce's work.
Ok Chris,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBQBOIIjQPQ Are you kidding..? This rabid hate directed at a woman who HAS been singing professionally for the better part of two decades..? With six or seven albums under her belt, [[ with and without her group ]] sixteen grammy's, and 75 million records sold worldwide..? For a practice that is so widespread every major artist does it at some point in their career..? Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you people..? She's going to be remembered as a pop culture icon, both with Destiny's Child and without.. She changed the face of pop music.. She literally belongs to the most successful girl group of all time.. And the people in this thread hate her like she thrashed their momma.. Some of ya'll are delusional as fuck, saying she doesn't have talent and is overrated.. That bookcase full of Grammys begs to differ.. Please get ya'lls lives and start coming for the people that really have no talent instead of biting the heel of a giant, because your hating asses look hella sour.. Smh..
I feel like every time I defend Beyobce here I become a little bit more of a stan..

Jeesh Hell, Etta didn't do justice to Etta's version, the first time I heard it I was disappointed by how flat it was and how uninspired I felt afterwards.. Don't be a music snob just to be a music snob..

You just made one yourself.
I will say before the late Miss Ella had some dementia perhaps and dealing with alcoholism and whatever... she was truly amazing in her prime.
What I find completely amusing is the most critique comes from people that don't play music.
