Beyonce the Copycat?

There’s a pretty interesting link over at the Daily Mail that talks about Beyonce and all the dresses and looks she’s copied over the years. I bring this up because first of all, I really like Beyonce, and second, because one of the looks she’s copycatted is Jennifer Lopez.

They show both Beyonce and Jen in the same (really awful) mermaid dress. Both of them were on photoshoots when they wore the dress. To me, this means someone that was in charge of the wardrobe for each photoshoot didn’t exactly do their homework. However, they also add links where Beyonce has stolen looks from other performers as well.

I really like Beyonce and think other performers probably inspire each other. I doubt she’s trying to copy other performers on purpose. What do you think?

    I think beyonce is very talented and commercially successful. she is also extremely gorgeous. Ive liked her music for a very long time but i think it lacks depth. her material is very shallow and her personality seems very fake. she is never sincere or honest (it seems) but i dont really know. she never admits to how she really feels and she seems extremely jealous of every successful new artist. rihanna may not be as talented but she is so much more real.

    UGH…BEYAWNCE REALLY NEEDS TO SIT HER TERRIBLE A** DOWN, HOW DARE THAT MANIPULATING BI**…DOES HER GREEDY A** DO ANYTHING FOR HER SELF, SHE’S COPYING EVERYTHING, SHE’S NOT EVEN ORIGINAL…DC WAS NEVER A GROUP IT WAS ALWAYS ALL ABOUT BEYLUSION WHICH IS SO TERRIBLE…SHE CAN’T SING THAT WELL, SHE STOLE FROM AALIYAH, CIARA, MYA, KYLIE, BRITTANEY AND SO MUCH MORE…

    SOMEONE NEEDS TO INTERVIEW THAT INDUSTRY HOES, AND PUT HER ON BLAST KINDLY AND BRING IT TO HER ATTENTION, IMAGINE WHAT RESPONSES SHE’LL SAY, MOST LIKEY SOMETHING DUMB….AIN’T THAT MUCH INSPIRATION IN THE DAMN WORD TO COPY OTHER BISHES SWAG…LIKE BEYONVE NEEDS TO SIT DOWN FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS, AND SHE AINT EVEN 27 SHE’S 32…SHE IS SO DEAD

    AND I GOT SOME MORE S*** TO SAY ABOUT THE FRADULENT (EXCUSE THE ERRORS) GIRL BEYLUSION. B.K.A COPYONCE’, I BEGINNING TO THINK ER NAME AIN’T BEYONCE, BUT IT’S PROBABLY BIANCA OR SUMTHING, SHE IS A TERRIBLE PERSON, AND LIKE WHO ELSE IS SHE GONNA COPY…I THINK KERI IS BETTER, AND THE OLD DC, LATOYA AND LETAVIA CAN SING WAY BETTER THAN HER, AND THEY LOOK BETTER….I CANNOT WAIT UNTIKL BEYONCE IS EXPOSED TO THE GREEDY WOMAN SHE TRULEY IS.

    Beyonce is trying hard to copy Jennifer lopez when she was succesfull.The Haircolor, style and the way JLo moves. Beyonce is an extraordinary singer, she doesn’t need to copy her. I do not understand why, is she insecure about her self? maybe. She told to a Latin Magazine that she would like to be a latina.

    i also think shes a fake i mean the girl has a nice voice why does she feel she has to copy from other artists like j.lo hairstyles, shakiras bellydancing, aaliyahs scenes from her last video…etc thats just sad because i dont hate the girl she just doesnt have creativity and that just turns me off from her music…
