Lala Talks: Beyonce’s Bodysuit, Metal Glove and Gareth Pugh Attempts are Tired

Beyonce has always been a breath of fresh air to pop music as a powerful performer with a timid personality that has paved her own path to stardom. Yet recently, it seems like Beyonce has been knocked off her rocker since Rhianna has busted onto the scene and will doing anything to be the one that will be noticed among a sea of look-a-like female artists. Even some of Bey’s songs on the unfortunate “I am Sasha Fierce” album were Rhianna-esque. When you take a second to ponder, this has been a trend amongst veteran pop stars like Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears as well. Christina simmered down her image to a small sizzle before giving birth and after she gave birth it was all abundant cleavage and Lady Gaga style-stealing. It seems as if these established superstars are feeling like the fresh batch of pop stars are giving them a fair run for their money. And they can’t keep up.
The pinnacle of that statement came to a head when Beyonce showed up to the MTV Europe Music Awards dressed in Gareth Pugh with a metal contraption on her hand. She looked silly and did not do the designer justice in the least bit. As you would think that would be the end to her over-exerting an image that is not hers, you flick on the television to see her gyrate her
‘womanhood” in a skin tight body suit, that translated as extremely vulgar in “Single Ladies”.
As the forefront of popular music, veterans like Beyonce and Christina should set an example for the young girls that idolize them: cover up a bit and follow your own path, not some one else’s. And all these style “stunts” have got to end, because they are tired and tried at this point. Come on B, I would have expected more from you…..
