New Duet, Shakira and Beyonce

It's finally out! Great video, though I'm having mixed feelings about the song cause it's kind of... well see for yourself it's definitly Beyonce and Shakira-y. Get ready to hear this one OVER and OVER and OVER again...

Actually I do kind of like it, its catchy... I just sense a future overplayed single!

Oh yes, the song is called "Beautiful Liar"

This will surely be overplayed..

I really wanted to hear this, it's quite good. An interesting combination!

I think it's the worst A-pop song I've heard in a while. I don't care too much for Beyonce but I also have this eerie feeling of, "crossing over & using stepping stones" whenever I hear this song. It also sounds too "Baby Boy"-ish to me...maybe it's just the instruments. The video has pretty scenes but it goes so fast that you can't enjoy them.

I think Nicole & Rihanna's collabo, "Winning Women" is WAY better. I hope it gets an MV really soon, especially since it's the new BGM to Secret deoderant.

"This video looks like it was made in 1990, on a budget of $5000. "


okay, well...hmm...I like the part where they weren't singing. It's not that good. I...ugh...am now preparing to hear this everywhere too...I'm gonna be so sick of that beginning music...It's what killed hips don't lie for me, It was EVERYWHERE, and I just hated it, now it's grown on me, especially the Spanish versions which are about a million times better...

This just...isn't quality...I expected more, but...it's not so bad...

YES! I also think that Nicole & Rihanna's Song is better & more upbeat. I think Beyonce & Shakira did an "ok" job but i also feel like this will be an overplayed single just cause this 2 super stars are together. Nice Video but I felt it was too simple as well. But they look GREAT!

Freaky seeing two different artists try to merge one genre. That curly hairstyle is fugly on Beyonce and the outfit choice for both was not so good except for the outfits in the poles scene. The promotional video looks kinda low budget too. I'm not too crazy over this one.

I heard this a week ago. Great song, HORRIBLE video. I bet they remake it; kinda like how Paris Hilton redid "Stars are Blind".

I love the parts are Shakira but for some reason I don't love the parts that are Beyonce. And for some reason, it seems to have the sound of Alanis Morisette's second album.

Also, doesn't Beyonce standing in the water like that look a little like Born to Be by Ayu?

I was expecting so much from the two of them but I'm really disappointed with both the song and the video.

Well...the song was fine...but the video was so boring...especially the interlude. Definitely 1990.

I love this song but i like the spanish version (bello embustero) more. the video is indeed a little cheap made but beyonce and shakira in one video .... that was to much for me. *gG* and yes nu-nrg the video is indeed smoking. their hotness almost burned my screen *gG*

Me too. Beautiful Liar doesn't feel like the collaboration of big stars it should have been. It's too bland.

I hated the Beyonce only version of Beautiful Liar that leaked months ago. This one is much much better, but still nothing special. And I can barely understand a word Shakira says. Her accent isn't usually that bad.
