    Beyonce is not here for the $0.99. She is about the $9.99 (album sales) and then the $99.99 (ticket sales).

    She's had singles flop before, but her album will still be multiplat and her tour will still be sold out.

    This.

    Some of her singles have flopped harder than "Run The World" i.e. "Video Phone" and "Work It Out". Guaranteed, Beyonce will have a #1 hit from this album no matter what the song sounds like or how many singles have to be released. Beyonce will bounce back.

    LOL at Rihanna and Katy Perry, those broads are the equivallent to Flo Ridah and Pitbull. They are ring tone and singles artists. For all those number ones Rihanna and Katy has they can't go multiplatinum or sell out arenas. Beyonce sells albums (guaranteed 5-6 mil worldwide) and her tours sells out.

    The single might not have gotten the recognition she hoped, but she's definitely not on her way out. She has a great voice and she's an entertaining performer.

    Rihanna and Katy don't do Beyonce numbers, but are a far cry from Flo-Rida and Pitbull. They at least sell around platinum to the 1.5 range.

    Look at the song's position on the charts, how long it's been on the charts, and the peak position and compare that to the fact that it was performed on Oprah's finale, the video that debuted on American Idol, and a performance at the Billboard Music Awards. It might be a little pre-mature to call it a flop, but that's beyond the promo for the average single that hits top 10 off downloads and radio play .

    Props to Beyonce for sampling Pon De Floor... that song's massive in the clubs over here, and Beyonce will always get loads of sales/tour stuff so she's far from done. She'll be around for a lot longer and 1+1 is a really good song I've found

    The real question is, when will Rihanna or Katy Perry ever have an album scan 3 million copies in the US like all of Beyonce's?

    come on now think letoya luckett and kelly have both had good solo careers... they may not have as many hits as beyonce but the quality of music really over shadows hers especially resently... and i could understand if she did it 4 the money but think kelly rowland and letoya luckett aint broke.... they not worth what beyonce is but they aint broke... so why put out bullshyt like " girls run the world?" you finna be 30.. most girls thats are her fans ( the black ones) was not feeling the song they past that stage in they life they 22 plus years old... she got younger fans as well but the younger 1 look up 2 her... and they dont care about the song as long as its beyonce.. so again why put out that bullshyt?




    and if she put wayne on a song you would have nothing wrong with the song..... and u kno it..

    another single, another flop

    Best I never had #93 on itunes after being out for a week

    Not top 50 on any format

    People just arent responding to her this time around

    This is gonna be her bionic. Can't even compare it to Rated R because Rated R still had some hits
