When he pull up, wanna pop my hood up

Xmas presents for the world of pop, courtesy of Beyoncé! Not one but TWO new videos. 'Diva' - maybe the track I'm most addicted to on the album - features ridiculous sunglasses, a mermaid outfit and a more ghetto, more crunk (= better) version of the 'Single Ladies' dance routine. 'Halo' features a lot of soft-focus lighting.

BTW, one of the many awesome things about 'Diva': remember that line from 'Survivor', "you thought I wouldn't sell without you - sold nine million"? She's UPDATED THE SALES FIGURES Y'ALL: "Fifty million round the world and they said that I couldn't get it." Always at her best when focused on the cold, hard economics of a situation, that girl.

Also, finally listened all the way through the Sasha Fierce disc. WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THIS EGO THING. So insane. Tinkly pianos and snaps and horns striking off beat and Beyonce singing about how she has a huge metaphorical penis. This is amazing.

Haha yes. You first think "...is she talking about Jay-Z's cock?!" and then "...is she talking about HER cock?!"

My favourite on the Sasha Fierce disc right now is 'Scared Of Lonely' and its ridiculous rococo arrangement.
