Beyonce Copies Shakira
Thanks to Perez Hilton, we can see more examples of Beyonce “borrowing” from Shakira. Is this flattery or downright copying? Some of these shots may be pushing it – but decide for yourself. More pics after the jump.

Shakira makes up all her own moves, and then a coreographer helps her put them all together…However, everything beyonce does is coreographed and made up by someone else…nothing is original. If you go to Youtube.com and look at beyonce’s live performances of Deja Vu-they are EXACTLY like Shakira’s Hips Don’t Lie routine.

Shakira wishes..
she can do only 1 Arab dance move and she’s done that to death.
she does that weird shoulder crap..and that pumping the chest thing..or is it how she pushes her belly out and sucks it in cuz she can’t roll it…I guess anyone who does a real bad robot is also trying to be Shakira.
I expect at any moment she will break out into the running man or maybe she could do the butterfly and silly hispanic girls will swear she did something and then try to copy her because that is the only ones who try to be her… like they did JLO which I wish they’d quit doing her old Rachel hairstyle.
that’s so 90s

[...] Although I guess that was inevitable considering Beyonce owes like half of her career to Shakira…or just the “Baby Boy” video and all her other ones but I really don’t watch Beyonce vids so whatever. Either way, I’m not the biggest fan of the song–I was expecting a “Boy Is Mine” version 2.0 but instead I got this weird mash-up of “La Tortura,” “Whenever, Wherever,” and “Baby Boy” whose tempo will inevitably give rise to some awkward white kid swaying side to side at this years bar and bat mitzvahs. Jews dominating Trinity High School, what what! Nst. All right, kiddies, I’m off to throw myself into the throes of passion…or um, my postmodernism paper. [...]

Beyonce is copying Shakira, Whether some people like it or not,We have to be honest & realistic. Since when has Beyonce been a Belly dancer? Never until Shakira came out.Now Shakira been a Belly Dancer since she was 3 years old,and let’s not forget it’s in her blood.She’s half lebanees & grew up around belly dancing.She has a video when she was 12 years old were she was dancing faster & better the Beyonce,at 12 years old. Come on! It’s not even funny no more Beyonce is getting anoying copying her style,dance,hair & If that’s not enough she used Shakira by inviting her to her video just to prove she can dance better,only that Shakira made her look like a fool in her own video,and she looked like the worst copycat when she came out with her fake hair & exact same shakiras move. Now Beyonce did a song with the spanish artist “Alejandro Sanchez” in spanish. That’s the exact same artist that shakira did a song/video for “La tortura” Come on since when did she sing spanish? Belly Dance?
I’m glad she is trying to sing in other language like spanish to gain more latin fans,but don’t expect that we will buy your cd’s if you are copying Shakira. We already have Shakira we don’t need 2 of them. If you take the dancers,fake hair,songwriters,and major label from Beyonce she would be NOTHING just a regular talented singer looking real ugly. Now take that all away from Shakira & guess what? She will be the same,you know why? Shakira is a singer/songwriter,plays the guitar & every other instrument,been belly dancing since she was 3,Sings in english/spanish,does her own hair & make up,She speaks 4 languages and has one of the highest IQ ,and to top it off she has done her own production,Including everything to making your own cd.The girl does it all!!! So Beyonce will never in a million years come close to Shakira.

To Flaca:
You are the BEST! THANK YOU! I have nothing against Beyonce, I think she is beautiful, but you are absolutely right about EVERYTHING you said. Comparing these 2-no chance. The music industry needs to understand that looks are not everything. Bey may be pretty, but Shakira is more intelligent. I love the way you compared the 2. I’m not bashing Bey, but she cannot speak different languages (hell she has trouble with her native english), she cannot play any instruments that I know of, her dancing is OK, and everything else you can think of. I am glad someone else sees what I see in other artists, and it’s a shame Shakira don’t have the respect she deserves. Shaki is my favorite female artist of all time. She is a TRUE role model for kids. She does more for other people that you can imagine. THANK you again for bringing this point out.
