Well I like the video..the real one is 9 minutes long and tells the story a bit better than the for tv version.
Although it's hard for me to look at the cigarette glasses...I freaking HATE cigarette smoke. Ugh.
If Beyonce started acting all gaga crazy it would be annoying, if she started dropping the f bomb it would be like she is trying to steal some of Gaga's personality. I much prefer the flavor she added to the song as her own.
