The Race to Nowhere: Beyonce', What's Your Story?

Beyonce’ Knowles-Carter never ceases to amaze me while strategically perched under the public eye. The past five years have seen the triple-threat in competition with her co-star, falling face first down a flight of steps, and numerous wardrobe malfunctions that would make Janet Jackson bow her head in shame.

What I don’t understand is with all of her talents, and a beauty that realistic fantasies are made of, why is it that Beyonce’ or her representatives feel that this revealing outfit was necessary? Was the decision in the name of fashion-forward or media attention?


If the reason was to push fashion-forward, public indecency tickets will skyrocket across the country because Beyonce’ has a broad fan base. Solid chunks of this fan base are the impressionable kind. The most impressionable of her fans will feel that if a celebrity such as Beyonce’ could pull it off without penalty, then why couldn’t they pull it off? I’m sorry, but this isn’t a statement that is trend worthy on so many social levels.



With great power comes great responsibility… seems that no one is interested in taking responsibility or thinking before they act anymore...
