Abercrombie & Fitch’s Battle Over Beyoncé’s Fragrance Is Getting Fierce

Jessica WakemanSeptember 16, 2009 //

Poor Beyoncé is having a rough week! First, everyone thought she was involved in some kind of conspiracy with Kanye West and Taylor Swift at the VMAs. Now Abercrombie & Fitch is suing to stop the diva from naming her forthcoming fragrance “Sasha Fierce,” for which Beyoncé filed a letter of intent with the U.S. Patent office back in September. But as it turns out, that lingering stink on your clothes the last time you got within a 60-foot radius of an Abercrombie & Fitch store could have been one of their men’s colognes called “Fierce.” (Can you see where this is going?) A&F filed its lawsuit yesterday, saying Beyoncé has ignored their cease-and-desist letter and has proceeded to develop “Sasha Fierce.” Methinks this lawsuit is just an A&F publicity stunt though, since no one would seriously wander into the temple of suburban preppydom searching for Sasha Fierce’s perfume. Still, one wonders if Beyoncé will buckle and change the name of her parfum to something else? “Bootylicious,” perhaps? [WWD] Keep reading »

Beyonce’s “Ego” Video: Boring!

Annika HarrisMay 27, 2009 //

We get it, Beyonce, Sasha Fierce is great at dancing. Now can we have an exciting video, please? I’m rather disappointed by the crop of videos Beyonce is putting out for her I am…Sasha Fierce. The “Diva” video was just a mash-up of her other videos. And now “Ego” looks like it was filmed the same day she did “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).” “Ego” would have been perfect for a video that told a story, but Beyonce only has time for a tried and true trick. You’d think Beyonce, who wants to be a celebrated actress, would take any opportunity to act instead of continuing to shake her butt. Keep reading »

Beyonce Needs A New Bag Of Tricks

Persia AliDecember 23, 2008 //

The hottest chick in the game has released the third video off her album I Am Sasha Fierce. “Diva” is one of the hottest songs off Beyonce, I mean, Sasha Fierce’s album. It’s definitely something that will make you bop your head in the club. But while watching the video, I was reminded of how “Diva” is very similar to some of B’s other videos. Actually, similar is being kind — it’s like watching all her other videos rolled into one. I think the pop star has gotten so big, she doesn’t know how to outdo herself anymore. After the jump, five tricks from “Diva” that Ms. Knowles has used in her other videos…

Sweet Release: What’s In And Out The Week Of November 19th 2008

MUSIC

  • Beyoncé I Am…Sasha Fierce
    With this two disc release, Beyonce is all about fantasizing. She’s been slipping on her gling and calling herself Sasha Fierce. The first disc she’s still Beyonce, imagining what she’d do “If I Were A Boy.” Yet she’s got something to say to the gents, “If you like it, you should put a ring on it.” Hm, wonder if that’s the line she used on Jay-Z? But truly, the Queen B is going deeper on her record. Soft songs like “That’s Why You’re Beautiful” are atypical for the happenin’ hit maker, but they beautifully subtle, for once. As Sasha Fierce, on disc two, she throws the dance floor some bones with hot tracks like “Diva” and “Radio.” There’s something for everyone, from club bumpin’ “Say My Name”-esque booty jams to adult laments.

Face Off: Beyonce Vs. Sasha Fierce

Annika HarrisNovember 18, 2008 //

At first, we thought Beyonce was a little crazy for developing her alter ego Sasha Fierce, but you know what? Sasha has really grown on us, especially since we’ve spent the last eight hours listening to I Am…Sasha Fierce on repeat. She’s sexy and outgoing and has the sickest body we’ve seen in a while. Beyonce and Sasha obviously have similarities, but when you really start to analyze their personas, you realize that they have quite a few differences. More after the jump. Keep reading »

Beyonce As Sasha Fierce As Wonder Woman?

Annika HarrisNovember 10, 2008 //

Beyonce has had great success as a singer/songwriter and a modicum of success as an actress — She was great in “Dreamgirls,” but let’s not forget she didn’t win the Oscar. Yet, she’s always willing to heap more onto her plate. Now, she is in talks with DC Comics and Warner Bros. to play the first black Wonder Woman. Beyonce will bring a physical prowess and flexibility unrivaled by the other actresses linked to this role, Jessica Biel, Katie Holmes and Evangeline Lilly. But do we really need to see Beyonce mimic another woman or character? I don’t think so. I say, she should hone her acting skills by taking roles for stand-alone characters. After the jump, check out a list of Beyonce’s movies and the woman or character she impersonated. Keep reading »

Who The Hell Is Sasha Fierce?

Annika HarrisOctober 24, 2008 //

Why, it’s Beyonce, of course. And we basically think she’s fallen off her rocker. I mean when non-celeb-types start coming up with alter-egos, they’re usually deemed insane, and if they commit some heinous crime, then “Law & Order” immortalizes them with a ripped-from-the-headlines episode. But since Bey is the extremely talented entertainer that she is, we’ll give her a pass on this one. And chalk all of this Sasha Fierce business up to marketing for her new album. Keep reading »
