Beyonce Accused Of Stealing Dance Moves In Music Video "Countdown"

Beyonce has another accusation under her belt. A few months ago,we reported that Bey was accused of stealing  her billboard award performance idea from an Italian singer by the name of Lorella Cuccarinni. Well now, she's being accused of plagiarism for her latest music video "Countdown." The video, which premiered last Thursday, shows scenes from movies like West Side Story, Funny Face, and Flashdance. It seems like the choreography and costume ideas was taken  in one of the from Belgian choregorgrapher Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker 1983 dance piece "Rosas danst Rosas and 1990 piece "Achterland without any credits. According to Yahoo news, Studio Brussels released a comparison video of Anne De Keersmaeker and Bey. Studio Brussels reached out to De Keersmaeker and she stated:

"I didn't know anything about this. I'm not mad, but this is plagiarism. This is stealing. What's rude about it is that they don't even bother about hiding it. They seem to think they could do it because its a famous work. Am I honored? Look, I've seen local school kids doing this. That's a lot more beautiful." 
While Beyonce is being taunted about this incident, MTV chatted with the video's director Adria Petty (who is singer/songwriter Tom Petty's daughter) about the inspiration of the look and choreography behind the video. Beyonce was paying tribute to some of her icons Audrey Hepburn, Diana Ross, Andy Warhol, and Twiggy.
"I brought Beyonce a number of references and we picked some out together. Most were German modern-dance references, believe it or not. But it really evolved."

Molly Meldrum Interviews Beyonce On Sunday Night HD

Recently, Queen Bey chatted with Australian journalist and music critic Molly Meldrum on the show "Sunday Night HD." Before the interview began, a voice over of Molly Meldrum, showed videos of a very young Beyonce dancing and her in concert as fans screams her name. He continues his voice over, as the video shows Beyonce walking into a room for the interview and Molly states "her beautiful baby bump, no wonder Beyonce is blooming... this really is Destiny's Child." As Beyonce sit down for the interview, Molly says "You're glowing," and she replies with a big a big smile on her face "thank you."  Throughout the piece, we catch a very soft side of her. Bey is seen asking why GOD blessed her to have the life she has. She even tears up after giving her African dance partners a hug. Also videos showed Bey enjoying her one year long break, as well as her in the dance studio learning the dance routine to her video "Run The World (Girls)." In her Australian interview, Bey spoke on having a baby, her music inspiration "Michael Jackson," Her dancing/"Run The World (Girls)" dance routine, the end of Destiny's Child, ending her business relationship with her father, working to hard, and more.

Peep a couple of excerpts below:
On having a baby, and how it may change her life 
Absolutely, it has already changed my life. My husband and I have been together for 10 years for all of my twenties-since I was 20 and we just feel like it’s time. I’m very grateful that God has blessed me with the biggest gift that any human being can have. I think because I’ve accomplished a lot of things for myself and I really know who I am. I didn’t rush into anything and I feel like if it’s any time, right now is the time and I’m so happy.
On Michael Jackson being her music inspiration
Beyond. How old was I? Five years old and it was my first concert and it was his show and that night I decided my purpose. He’s the reason I do what I do, because I would have never experienced that magic if it wasn’t for him.
On dancing
I’m a huge fan of dance and I always try to think of a new way to move the body. I try to treat choreography like I do a hit song and I try to think of the things that are going to make people want to dance and move around, dance in the club or dance at their school play or whatever.
On her dance routine in “Run the Word (Girls)”
I saw this video clip on Youtube and it looked like Michael Jackson …it looked like stepping, like African all mixed in and I had never saw anything like it. We searched everywhere around Mozambique, which sounds crazy, but we found these guys.
On Destiny’s Child ending
Definitely, it was nerve-racking for all of us. It’s just when you’re use to something it’s hard to grow up sometimes and we all said, “Well, it’s time. We’re women, it’s time and we all want to do different things.”

Drake Album "Take Care" Has A New Release Date (November)

For those of you who were looking forward to Drake's upcoming album "Take Care" to drop later this month, bad news... its been pushed back. "Take Care" was set to release on Drake's 25th birthday, October 24h. He wants his fans to hear the album the way he feels they should. The new release date is November 15. Drake released a statement about the date change via his blog. Read his statement below:

"I managed to create this album in my hometown of Toronto and the thoughts and stories I wanted to get across just became so clear. It truly felt like when I was here 3 years ago making So Far Gone. So I have completed 19 songs (17 on physical and 2 on bonus), and have run into a roadblock of clearing 3 samples in time to make the October 24th date. My options were to take the songs off and make the birthday release happen, or to take an extra couple weeks to get the paper work right and give you the album they way I NEED you to hear it. The choice was clear as day for me. November 15th you will get Take Care the exact way I created it with no trimmings. This music means too much to me to get attached to dates and I do apologize for the delay but I promise that it is only for the benefit of our experience together. Club Paradise Tour will also be moved to when students are back from the Christmas/New Year break so that I can get to more schools. New dates will be released in the next week…see you all soon."
