Loving the old school angry attitude of the piece.

LADY GAGA'S TELEPHONE VIDEO FEATURING BEYONCE

I was watching the beginning like yo, this totally reminds me of MJ's video/ mini movie for Beat It, then she did the shuffle, step out [when she was leaving the prison] just like him and it totally confirmed the reference. I particularity love her interpretation of prison stripes, chains, and the work out yard. Older female body buliders as guards, inmates working out in heels, the smoking shades... all genius. When Gag meets up with B the theme switches to a Quentin Tarantino vibe with the Pussy Wagon [from Kill Bill- a feminist classic] and the diner from Pulp Fiction. I, of course, love that they kill everyone and get away in the Pussy Wagon. The name of the car works even better with two girls in it.


My favorite looks from Beyonce were the jeweled, old school soldier's jacket with cut offs and the bee keepers outfit. Her face looked really pretty through the veil... My favorite looks from Gaga were the beer can hair, and the waitress outfit [with the phone cord as a headband, receiver as an eye piece, vinyl dress and cast boots]

BEYONCE'S VIDEO PHONE [EXTENDED REMIX] VIDEO FEATURING LADY GAGA

This video is all over the blogosphere, so why check it out here? To watch it one more time after you read my colorful commentary lovie!

Who ever thought of combining the incredible musical energies of Beyonce and Lady Gaga was genius and the video was tight, but not because the two were in it. Beyonce had an array of amazingly striking looks: the black and white geometrically jeweled two piece with the hold up hand shades [very Lady Gaga], the Bettie Page tribute, and the faux Rihanna [with the hair slicked down to a point and garters] were my favorites. Beyonce also got way more sexual than she usually does, popping, jiggling, grabbing and moaning throughout the video [I wonder if she already knew how to twerk her booty like that or  did a choreographer need to show her]. Lady Gaga's performance was the exact opposite of that, almost like her and B switched images.  Gaga was glammed up to be a pretty woman [the way Beyonce usually is right down to the long, lace front wig] and wore one outfit for the brief time she appeared in the video. No weird headgear, no synthetic wigs, no far out-there costumes. Where did you go Gaga? Then her singing sounded... forced [Sorry Lady!]. She's usually the one moaning and groaning, but in this song she was attempting Divas Live type riffs [confused face]. All in all I love the video [for Beyonce's delicious visuals] and adore the idea of powerful, female pop stars combining forces to be fabulous.
