      urgent!! I was a trans woman and I was a prostitute and I also married several men and I was not happy. I traveled to many countries in search of happiness, I even sought happiness in drugs and drinking, it was a way I tried to fill the void in my heart. One day I was in my apartment in Rio de Janeiro in Ipanema with a guy, so I sent him away and talked to God to show me if hell was real. So I left and my soul left my body and I saw terrible things, souls falling into despair with a look of anguish and pain. they asked me for help and I saw the devil take the souls of those people. I heard screams, crying and despair. It was horrible. I saw my grandfather who died of a heart attack because he was an alcoholic and my grandfather died drunk. was there to drag him was terrible. I also saw a woman and a man who died here in Brazil in a fire in a nightclub called Kiss. the woman danced on her tortured nails, her gaze desperate. then I returned to earth and called a friend and my mother and told them what I had seen in hell. Today I am sure that hell is real and terrible. I have given my life to Jesus Christ, I read the Christian Bible, I follow the commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I look forward to the return of Jesus Christ because I know that I will live in heaven with Jesus Christ. I cut my hair, removed the silicone and today I live assuming my original identity as a boy. I'm not a trans woman anymore because I know that's a sin and I know that there are sinners in hell who commit sins against God, whoever commits sin pleases the devil and when he dies he goes to hell! Jesus Christ loves you. accept Jesus Christ while you are alive. because if you die without Jesus Christ you will suffer eternally in hell. here is terrible!!!ooiuyewsx

She's not a porn star, she's not a media attention seeker, she doesn't boast her life online about how rich she is, the media does that for her, whether it's true or not. I like the creative ideas that she brings with her music, that's all we should appreciate. It's insane how many white people hate her & some black people think she's overrated. Get a life, damn.

      @get0kat 8 років тому +29

      Both sisters are so different with their work, but both equally talented & beautiful. Everyone's entitled to their opinions yes, but my point is she's not doing anything wrong, she's encouraging younger generations to stand up for themselves black/white through music and her visual creations, she's more famous because of destiny's child & years of experience, Solange went through a lot of shit as everyone knows being a young mother, finally found herself musically during seat at my table, I'm sure Bey is more prouder than Solange is of herself & she is very protective of Bey, behind the fame & fortune their is genuine love. I personally think Beyonce' don't give a F about the fame, given a global platform to voice on for the sake of making the world a better place, even if it means fxcking up a few things, if I was in her shoes, I certainly wouldn't. She represented the southern culture in this video, all in all if I was Messy Mya, I'd probably be annoyed too, but humbled at the fact she doing the black america culture proud by showing the world America or white privileged americans, do not define african americans as the abomination of the earth.

    They can never EVER make me hate you Bey! With immense success truly comes immense hate. This is probably why so many elders advise us to be cautious with who we share our success stories with. The lies and rumours will start when one’s success reaches new heights. For close to 3 decades they’ve been bringing their audacity to the table. You will forever keep winning!

    • @guillemgamell7945
      @guillemgamell7945 8 років тому +10

      Ffh Ffhns i know but that means that her music is excellent and that is just tea. 4 was leaked a month before its release and it became her lowest-selling album. I would've gone multi-platinium in the US... and ever since she's played herself but managed to have the best selling album by a black female this decade with BEYONCÉ (6.9M in pure sales and 9M SPS) and Lemonade is the best selling album of 2016 so she ISN'T a flop, not to mention Te Formation World Tour grossed 260M from 49 shows. But i mean, if she did the promo right, Lemonade would be at 5/6M by now even tho 2016 has the worst sales climate ever, but it is at 3M by now... and Formation could've turned into a HUGE WW smash hit. She's playing herself.

      urgent!! I was a trans woman and I was a prostitute and I also married several men and I was not happy. I traveled to many countries in search of happiness, I even sought happiness in drugs and drinking, it was a way I tried to fill the void in my heart. One day I was in my apartment in Rio de Janeiro in Ipanema with a guy, so I sent him away and talked to God to show me if hell was real. So I left and my soul left my body and I saw terrible things, souls falling into despair with a look of anguish and pain. they asked me for help and I saw the devil take the souls of those people. I heard screams, crying and despair. It was horrible. I saw my grandfather who died of a heart attack because he was an alcoholic and my grandfather died drunk. was there to drag him was terrible. I also saw a woman and a man who died here in Brazil in a fire in a nightclub called Kiss. the woman danced on her tortured nails, her gaze desperate. then I returned to earth and called a friend and my mother and told them what I had seen in hell. Today I am sure that hell is real and terrible. I have given my life to Jesus Christ, I read the Christian Bible, I follow the commandments of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I look forward to the return of Jesus Christ because I know that I will live in heaven with Jesus Christ. I cut my hair, removed the silicone and today I live assuming my original identity as a boy. I'm not a trans woman anymore because I know that's a sin and I know that there are sinners in hell who commit sins against God, whoever commits sin pleases the devil and when he dies he goes to hell! Jesus Christ loves you. accept Jesus Christ while you are alive. because if you die without Jesus Christ you will suffer eternally in hell. here is terrible!!!bhbcxxy

    A lot of people consider this song to be anti-white but I'd like to consider it pro black. Some white people like to think blacks showing pride in their race means they are trying to downgrade whites. That is simply not the case. It is just black people being proud of their heritage and culture and where they come from. I do not see what is wrong with that

    • @z0mggena
      @z0mggena 8 років тому +198

      As someone who is white and Native, it's really a shame to see how much white people seem to think that pro-this automatically means anti-that. Just look at BLM. I'm pro-BLM, but that certainly doesn't make me anti-police. Or how they seem to think pro-choice also means pro-abortion. It's ridiculous. Brings a whole new meaning to black-and-white.

      Princess Ivy if the message is so important then you would definately want all people to know about it

      Princess Ivy I'm happy it's getting the recognition it should be getting but it is not the most awarded video of all time. "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga is then it's Beyonces "Single Ladies". Formation is in the Top 10 female videos but it is not the most awarded female video

      No, Formation is already the most awarded video by a female artist of all time, surpassed Bad Romance last year and we still have the Grammy's.

      no, it is def. not the most awarded female video of all time, it is the most awarded female video of 2016.

      @@stansomi7364 Who is we? But I and no one else owes you or anyone else respect. I don't care if you prove yourself, that's a totally different topic and one I don't even care about. But respect is not something you demand from others. You give respect you get respect. And I don't have to treat you badly if I don't respect you or think of you as not equal. I just don't have to respect you because you say so. No one is entitled to shit, not even respect.

    i am studying beyoncé for my a level media course, i've always loved her but analysing formation in full detail made me realise even more how incredible she is as a pop icon. there's seriously nobody else doing it like her, there's so much attention to detail and so much to unpick. props to bey, ion know what bell hooks was talking about

      same as well! i've used formation and lemonade on my finale's research and defense presentation. i will say, the one thing i've learned about this whole storyline from beyonce is so compelling if you're part of the discussion that tackles the pride of ancestry and the beauty of its heritage. this'll be her magnum opus forever that'll transcend more to many generations to come.
