"Hey there, Beyoncé.We here at MTV News have a theory you might be interested in hearing.
Your music is great, don’t get us wrong. We can’t stop bopping to “Single Ladies” here in the newsroom. But we suspect that the album-buying public can’t get past the fact that you come across as, well, boring. Even though you cooked up this crazy, metal-glove-wearing alter ego Sasha Fierce, people still don’t know how relate to you, and perhaps your record sales are being affected.
This isn’t a problem for Taylor Swift and Britney Spears, who live their lives constantly in the media. We know everything about them. Where they shop, what kid of coffee they like (Fraps, y’all), whom they date, what happens on their dates …
Taylor’s always out there talking about how badly Joe Jonas broke her heart or her awesome (read: antiquated) rules for dating (never call a guy first, girls!). She posts MySpace blogs about her broken-heart mixtapes. Meanwhile, Britney went on the record in her documentary and talked candidly about her breakups with Kevin Federline and Justin Timberlake. This is in addition to the fact that she’s popping up everywhere, trying to show the world that she is Britney the pop star again, not Britney the tabloid queen.
Taylor Swift has sold nearly 1,300,000 copies of her album Fearless since its release a month ago. And Britney claimed the top spot this week, selling over 505,000 of Circus in its first week. Then you, Beyoncé, find yourself at #3. Selling over 893,000 copies of I Am … Sasha Fierce in three weeks is impressive, but you’re still the bridesmaid and not the bride.
Speaking of weddings, you still won’t really talk about your new hubby, Jay-Z. Privacy is one thing, but you guys barely even take pictures together. And maybe you do like to go out and have a good time, but how are we supposed to know this? It kind of takes away from the fun of your party anthems if we think you’re actually sitting at home embroidering pillows or something.
So, here’s a new game plan: Maybe the kooky wild Sasha Fierce can get out there and start gossiping about Beyoncé. Take this split-personality thing a little further and allow her to tell us a little more about you. Until she does, you’ll always be a few steps behind Britney and Taylor."
My opinion?-
This article is complete Bullsh%#. I'd rather Beyonce being "quiet, shy and boring" then being a nuiscense to the public, humiliating herself, shaving her head, going to several clubs in one night, and showing her vajayjay to the paparazzi..just to sell more records. I mean... it would be nice if she talked about her life more...but it's not our business. That's the problem with people now-a-days..they wanna know anything and everything, and they need to realize their not going to get anything and everything from Beyonce.
What's your opinion?

I feel the same way, Beyonce is making the right moves no one can deny her that! Why does everyone want to try and make her something she isn't. I mean she is what 27 now and still no baby drama, no rehab news, no drug addiction claims, she isn't some hoochie who is passin the goodies out to everyone in the industry so what's the deal?! When your successful everyone wants to see you fail ecspecially when your at the status B is at. I hate people like that, plus if they wanna say it be upfront instead of fake on camera in interviews playing all nice. I'm sure B would tell them wassup, but why does she have to? Like you said it's her life why would she want to expose the private parts of it to the world. Look what they did to Britney she gave them what they wanted and she got F**%$$#'ed over! Now everyone is praising her, but what did she do? she didn't even go on tour with the "Blackout" album. Taylor Swift?? I'm sorry what does she have to do with anything?? She is cool, but i don't get what they are talking about. MTV shouldn't even be talking about music anymore, They should be called RTV "Reality Television" thats all they show now anyway. I used to love MTV
