Beyonce played London’s O2 last night, and she had a special guest appearance by Jay-Z. After the show, Bey and Jay hit up The Arts Club for an after-party. I’m including photos of them during the concert and at the club. According to UK sources, Bey and Jay did not make it rain at the private club, nor did they stand on any tables and douse people in champagne. Apparently, they kept it quiet and subdued, which… sure. Beyonce was probably tired after her show. And earlier in the day, Beyonce had shopped until she dropped – she went on a three-hour shopping spree at TopShop.
I saw this a few days ago and I was looking for an excuse to use it – someone made an Emoji video for Beyonce’s “Drunk In Love”. It’s really cute!!!
Beyoncé (feat. Jay-Z) “Drunk in Love” Unofficial Emoji Video from JESSE HILL on Vimeo.
Beyonce also released the full-length music video for her single “Partition”. I’m not even going to embed it because it’s pretty much NSFW in its entirety. I watched the “SFW” version on VH1 the other day and I couldn’t really believe that Beyonce had gotten away with airing so many boob and butt shots. Anyway, you can see the video here – Beyonce plays a stripper/burlesque dancer giving Jay-Z a “private performance.”

I don’t get why they’re so determined to put their sex life everywhere now..
we get it, you have sex, it’s beautiful blah blah blah
I feel uncomfortable with it too. If they need to flaunt it this much, then something seems shady to me.
Yeah, usually the people actually doing it doing feel the need to talk about it all the time. Maybe they think she has lost some of her “sexy” because she’s married and they’re trying to get it back? I don’t know.
THIS. Those who talk about it the most are doing it the least.
I thought the same thing: if she feels the need to put their sexlife on display probably there’s more than trouble in paradise…
I meant to say people doing it don’t feel the need, but you seem to have understood
Im sooooo waaaayyyy past OVER IT. really really over them.
They have been beyond “try hard”. Why are they shoving their oh-so-hot ( I bet not) relationship down our collective throats? I’m betting they are shoring up their empire, cause something is up. He is ugly and she’s insufferable. She would certainly have to be drunk to bang him.
lol! burrrrrn…..
I know right I said the same thing.its just werid and pathetic now.I mean shes always been sexual but never in your face sexual like this with her ass boobs, and showing all between her legs and everything.idc what nobody says she didn’t start doing this shit until miley, Rhianna, and Nikki manaj came out doing this.its like shes trying to compete and she so desprate to keep her self on the charts becausr she knows if she does these things it will get people talking about her and keep her relevant just like miley cyrus said keep people talking.beyonce knows shes gettin older shes a mom now shes been around for years and she has to stay in competition with the mileys and Rhiannas.because if not she will fade away and people will forget about her so shes preety desperate and insecure to me.no different from any one else.but its just werid tho.she should of done this kind of stuff before she became a wife and mother.because now it just seems desperate and like a cry for help.
IDK, Madonna did it and still does. That doesn’t make it ok though. Everything is for sale with this lady now. There is no class or dignity which are words you could once somewhat associate with Beyoncé. I’m a mother and I would not want my kids watching her videos. How is she going to feel when her little girl grows up and see’s that? Is she going to tell her it is ok to flash everything in the name of ‘art’?
I don’t know if I’m alone in this.. but I think some things should be happening behind closed doors.
That makes me uncomfortable and even if i’ve never been a beyoncè fan i liked some of her songs and her videos but now all i see in her videos is far too much! She is no Rihanna or Miley Cyrus, both of them seem to have an allergy to clothes.
Beyoncè can sing keeping her clothes on.
IMO, she seems to be going thru something…Like she just cannot get enough attention ever any more.
I don’t understand it at all. Maybe she thinks she is losing him?
I can’t stand her. But honestly, I know it doesn’t seem like it, I didn’t use to mind her.
Truly, I cannot stand anyone who thinks other people should “bow down” to them.
I don’t care how rich you are.
She is not the B all End all of the entire world, but she sure thinks so.
Guess what Beyonce? Being sexy isn’t the meaning of life….
I agree!
My theory: Jay straight up cheats on her constantly and she’s trying to compensate by oversexing her image for attention.
And making her empowered woman image shrink like Spanx….!
The more desperate she acts, the less respect he probably has for her.
HAHAHA totally! Desperation is unattractive, and not exclusive to us peasants by a long shot.
i am also very suspicious of this new brand she is marketing as Mrs.carter because before then they would not acknowledge their rlshp,i was just too chicken to call it out before
maybe she is doing this because jay has straighten out his ways and now she is confident of her marriage,maybe there is a lovechild or maybe there is nothing suspicious, who knows , this branding is too left-field ,it actually took me by surprise ,as well as the boobs,the thongs,the dirty lyrics in her album
Maybe since having a baby, she feels compelled to prove she’s still sexy. Oops! I forgot, she didn’t really birth a baby even though she has a baby….or so most people say.

Ha! I played the video and my cat came running over to see what that noise was.
Hahahaha! =}
Ha ha!
Probably thought it was an ass.
Well, it was! Hee!
Funny you said that about your cat cause my Boxer did the exact same thing, then proceeded to make that funny head-tilting, inquisitive face like he was hearing/seeing something really strange. Which he was.
Ohh Jeez is she wearing JLO catsuit???
and for the burlesque video: Dita Von Tees has called, she wants her corsets back.
It was Britney’s before Jlo. 3rd hand is a lucky charm 🙂
She does wear the most tackiest outfits.
No, they all wants to emulate Diana Ross ‘Pieces of ice’ castsuit !
After all she was the very first Pop/R&B diva and really was the first one to popularize that type of catsuit in sexy singers..
It was her signature outfit for a while.

Idk why but I’m surprised so many people seem to be obsessed with Bey’a new sexy image, I like it, i don’t think she’s trying to flaunt anything, she seems to have come into her own now. I feel like for a while she was trying to generate mega single after mega single and now she’s singing what she wants to sing. That’s just my opinion of course and I maybe biased bc I love the new album and all the videos lol!
I really wish she would have kept the bob longer.
Okay. HOW is this not the worst song she’s ever made? Also, what is up with the boring, monotone song trend? The only thing that breaks up the monotony is when she scream-sings through her nose.
Oh, and about that. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Someone needs to tell her to stop braying like a donkey and go back to actually singing. This song makes me blackout from rage, so sorry for the break in sanity.
I see no chemistry with these 2. Something weird about after all this time they are suddenly putting this whole “aren’t we sexy” vibe out there. She is hot when she performs, but other than that, no. He is just an ugly, peanut headed dude with no sex-appeal at all, other than his money. I just always had the feeling that she was one of those woman who just didn’t like sex that much and their marriage is just kind of a business deal
Why does he always have to perform with her? Getting an Ike Turner vibe.
I think Beyonce has been overtly promiscuous for JayZ – not herself so much. There is so much gossip about JayZ being closeted that they team work to prove he is hetero and their’s is not a business marriage. I think it is a business arrangement. I think he goes both ways. But after having obvious lipo, I think she does enjoy showing off and craves the attention. The irony is, if its true they are trying to prove to the world that he is hetero, that his wife totally looks like tranny…always has to me. Sorry. I’m sure I’ll get slammed for that, but most of the time, she looks like a man trying to look like a hot chick.
+1000.
I think it’s strange that they were always so private about their relationship, and now she’s kind of shoving their sex life in everybody’s face all of a sudden. Definitely something going on there, also the fact that her music videos are just so much more provocative now. Before she could be pretty covered up and still was very sexy. Reeking of insecurity.
I really think Beyonce was so disappointed with her last album that she decided to try to raunchy ways of Rhianna. Al of this overly sexual stuff is a little weird to me.
I know I’m in the minority here, but I think they’re adorable together. I don’t really see the big deal about them making music together about sex either. Virtually all musicians across all genres regularly sing about sex, and in a lot more detail than these 2 — I wonder if everyone complaining finds every rock, rap, pop, or R&B song about sex similarly offensive? Not sure what the difference is between a single musician singing about his/her sexual exploits and a couple of married musicians singing about theirs?
I don’t think people care much about the songs being about sex as Beyonce’s recent behavior on stage. She simulates sex movements, she bares almost everything, and brings her dude out on stage on a regular basis to bump and grind on. That’s what is different. I’m sure if other couples did this, the public would find it odd and a bit off-putting too. The ones who are vulgar by themselves on stage such as Miley are definitely abhorred by the general adult public – maybe not her teeny bopper fans, but grown ups find it gross and super unattractive….oh, and desperate for attention.
Not buying it. Musicians who perform sexually explicit songs usually bring out a foil during performances, whether it’s a dancer, model, or a real life significant other. I think that most of the criticism here is driven by an underlying dislike for Beyonce and/or JayZ rather than any inherently offensive behavior, at least judging by some of the comments in the thread (e.g., yours, which range from allegations re: fake pregnancies to JayZ’s sexual orientation). JMHO.
I wish female celebs would just own their haircuts instead of running for extensions whenever they start to regret it. I honestly prefer Beyonce with the bob (although I know she probably went shorter), it was really cute.
Vanessa Hudgens, I’m also looking at you.
Jay Z is so aggressively unattractive (IMO) in both personality and looks it makes me wonder why she couldn’t “do better.” She is beautiful and successful but seems to be lacking in some ways.
Also this new image is a little on the corny side , she doesn’t really pull it off the way Rihanna does.
Love both of them and their music. That is all.
Agree !
I mean who in his/her right mind will use the word ‘coitus’ in a song ?…even if it’s the off voice in french ? Asking a man if he likes coitus ?…
I mean, such a nasty vomitting harshly obscene word that could be replaced by so many other less agressive ones ?
Where is the romance, the imagination and how will she performs this on stage in countries that may have certain sensitivities (rememberred Madonna being asked by foreign police to not simulate the sexual act on stage in certain countries , right before she enterred the scene if she didn’t want to get to jail…)
WHAT’s NEXT STEP ? If he loves cunnilingus ?
She is out of her damn mind trying to take the Madonna route for shock value and controversy exploitation
Next step will be releasing their sex tape or writing a sex book with sexual pictures of them too.
Madonna’s ‘justify my love’ seems so tame in comparison…
Shame on you Beyonce ! So much talent wasted !
I so miss Aaliyah right now….
+1000
Timing timing something to be said for the competition of the Kartrashian and West thing too. Seems B & JZ. Want to show they can do the same.. Seems to me they started this stuff about same time
The video wasn’t offensive. Sex isn’t offensive. Being open about sex isn’t offensive. Talking about the sex you have with your partner isn’t offensive. I wish more people would be open with their sexuality. It’s not taboo. It’s a normal part of life.
And the people saying if you have to flaunt it you must not be getting any.. I don’t agree. When I have really great sex I find it hard not to talk about it.
I think there is blatant hypocricy, double standard and sellout all over written when you use, abuse, overbid about sex visually and lyrically while still enjoying that classy image you create to stay above the rest,…enjoying that blatant immunity.
Let’s get real, if it was anyone but Beyonce doing this, words will be harsher towards either Rihanna or Miley or whatever starlet.
If Beyonce wants to emulate their likes who are pure trash or emulate pole dancers, she should just embrace it completely and not play on two contradiction parts.
At least those women own their character and got the backlash and fingerpointed that goes with it (even Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot did in their time….Bardot was even spat on her face on the street by women calling her ‘slut’ in the 50’s…thank god we are not there anymore but social media has replaced that)…
Same was said to Madonna who was constantly called a slut at the start of her career since’ like a Virgin’ which by today standards is so tame.
That escalation into sexualizing songs, that goes equally with butchering melody and cheapening to unbelievable mud the lyrics has to stop before someone decides to go completely nude on stage to not simulating but actually doing for real that sexual act.
Beyonce vocals have even changed for the worst. She doesn’t care about vocals, lyrics, melody anymore. All she cares is bare herself in salacious poses like any pole dancer or Playboy centerfold vixen would do.
She should just posed nude in Playboy once and for all and act in a soft p0rn movie a la Shannon Tweed since according her fans, sex isn’t offensive….
You can’t have it both ways.
You play like the rest of them, consider to be treated the same and not enjoy your queeny untouchable immune status.
I think part of the point is, that you’re allowed to be both. That you can be overtly sexy when you want to, and also classy when you want to. I don’t see how it’s incompatible. I can be sexy and overt with my boyfriend/husband/lover, but also be professional and understated at work.
What bothers me more is the “I’m a feminist” but also bitches, bow down to your queen… eh. I don’t know. Something is off.
E, you’re so right! Wasn’t she singing “nasty put some clothes on, you’re looking stain” (sic)?
(Ok, i’m a little ashamed to remember the lyrics after so long) Great example of a strong and independent woman…selling her modesty for attention.
idk why everyone is so surprised. the media and the fans created this monster. calling her queen b like she’s actually royalty. she made that song now down because she obviously taken it to the head. she thinks she can do no wrong. um no bitch. im soooo over her. I have been since she faked being pregnant. and yes she did and no one can prove to me otherwise.
I’m real late, but here goes, this sex exhibition makes me very uncomfortable too. She would’nt even admit she was with him for years. Now, she is seriously trying to prove to the world that she and he have crazy lovemaking sessions, and its vulgar, not titilating. I think they have worn out having each other perform at each show. No one is surprised anymore. In that first picture, really in all of them, he appears disinterested and aloof. I don’t like the song, and the only thing left is for her to take it all off.
Definetely cute! I always like this couple! And they dress very young for their age, I love that. Jay-Z always have some Crooks and Castles on and Beyonce is a bit less streetwear.
