Like, seriously. Two entertainers of epic stage and performing proportions, with haystacks of awards tucked neatly under their diamond-encrusted belts, hit after hit after hit. Influential, industry powerhouses.
It's not just, so-and-so featuring never-heard-of-'im.
It's LADY GAGA featuring BEYONCE.
On a song.
Doing a music video.
Dancing together.
AWESOME does not begin to describe it.
However, I was let down. Not really crushed and devastated to the brink of no salvation. Just kinda... unpuffed... all the hype for nothing really much at all.
The video is around 9 minutes long, while the song is a typical 3 - 4 minute tune.So there was a bit of a storyline in the video, which goes like this:
Gaga was sent to this uber lesbian butch + gay guy (I dunno... the person she made out with looked like a guy, a gay one albeit) prison, whereby the female wardens look akin to wrestlers on steroids on steroids. She then takes a call from Beyonce, who then bails her out, and they go on their journey in the Pussy Wagon ala Kill Bill.
Peppered among these scenes are really cheesy and fake ( I dunno if it were the acting skills, or was the dialogue supposed to be so... bland) banters among the two leading ladies.
Some examples:
Lady Gaga gets into the wagon.
Beyonce: ' You've been a bad girl. A very very bad BAD girl, Gaga!'
OR
In the wagon driving
Lady Gaga: 'Sure you wanna do this Honey B?'
Beyonce: 'What do mean am I sure?'
Lady Gaga: 'You know what they say. Once you kill a cow, you gotta make a burger.'
WTH???!!!!
Who EVER SAYS THAT???!!!! It's like the worst script I have ever heard!
Continuation, they then stop at this diner where Beyonce meets up with this black dude, who's really obnoxious. She then puts some poison into his coffee, and he starts coughing. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga is cooking and dancing up a storm in the kitchen, and puts poison in all the food. After eating the contaminated edibles, all the diners in the diner (HUH?) die.
Some dancing.
Then they ride of into the sunset, hand in hand (LITERALLY. I hope Beyonce doesn't go lesbo...)
I hope this video was supposed to have some elements of comedy, because I was laughing through MOST of it.
PS. Good points in the next post.
