I am now officially declaring the Single Ladies fad dead and deceased because of the super skeevy video I’ve posted below of some 7-year-old dancers slutting it up to our favorite Beyonce song. Single Ladies has had a great life, with a heelarious spoof by Justin Timberlake and a shout out from President Obama when he demonstrated his own hand-flipping ability, but now it’s time to bid it farewell (and I do so with great sadness) because it’s just gone too far.
BTW, the Modern Love Machine and I have finally gotten around to digesting the first season of Glee (and it is delightful), and I finally saw the episode that involved a whole lotta Single Ladies, and it was spectacular. I mean, it blended my love of Beyonce and football. What more can I ask for?
And now, prepare to feel icky:
I’m not accepting nominations for the next Single Ladies fad. Until then, here’s Beyonce’s latest. It ain’t bad (and it’s sure a hell of a lot better than that Telephone song with Gaga, which I really wanted to like.)
🙁 Can we still be friends?
Ohh yes that is ickey…
Those poor girls actually have talent, too bad they look like hookers.
and also, this dance competition takes place at Disney World. Magical Days indeed.
I couldn't watch more than a few seconds. It just felt wrong. There's a fine line in there somewhere.
