I dunno about you guys, but I'm picking up on a theme in Beyonce's videos off of this record.
I think it's a good time for a fill-in-the-blank game.
The theme of Beyonce's videos from the I Am ... Sasha Fierce album is: __________________ .
Your suggestions go in the comments.
You can watch the "Ego" video here and the "Single Ladies" video here. The "Halo" video breaks most of the rules, but it's here anyway. />

Does Michael Jackson deserve to adulation he's received post-mortem? Here's my story:
"So the Jackson story's pretty much run its course?" a friend asked me tonight. "No," I said. "At least six months more. At least."
He was flabbergasted. "What could they be talking about for six months?"
Well, we'll talk about the biological parentage of his kids, we'll talk about who gets what in his estate, we'll talk about who whore what to court and whether they were late; people will from time to time bring up the whereabouts of Bubbles and a potential feature film, at some point Macualay Culkin will have to weigh in, and then every now and then someone will make a very, very horrible but pee-your-pants funny joke about his death and I will laugh. Like what just happened a few hours ago. No, I'm not repeating it. But seriously. This is going to last FOREVER, so hop on the train and get a seat.
It's a fascinating phenomenon, this public outcry of grief we see when a major celebrity passes. These deaths are an opportunity for mass catharsis. It's not that these people are crying over Michael Jackson or Farrah Fawcett specifically; they're externalizing pain that's probably needed a release for some time. You see a sort of mob mentality take over -- the grief feeds upon the grief. In today's society, how often do we get an opportunity to stand on the street with strangers and share a good cry? It's not really my style, but I can see the appeal. There are certainly less healthy outlets for pain.
Michael Jackson died from an accidental overdose of the prescription pills he was abusing. He died of addiction, which is a disease. That disease doesn't make him a bad person, or less worthy of adulation, than if he'd died of cancer. Bill O'Reilly thinks otherwise. />

Dr. Arnold Klein -- the rumored bio-dad of Paris and Prince -- appeared on Good Morning America today, where he grinned and stated that "to the best of my knowledge, I'm not the father."
He continues to say that "I don't want to feed any of this insanity that's going around," which is FOR SURE not what he's doing by appearing on national television and giving vague answers about the paternity of Michael's children. Bravo, dude. Way to take the high road. />

We weren't really speaking of perverts, but it sounds like we are now.
Morgan Freeman and his wife Myrna split in December, 2007 after 24 years of marriage. A new report is out that claims Morgan and his wife had an open marriage and each pursued relationships outside the marriage. You know, I have never understood open marriages. I think it's fine to schtup a bunch of people if that's what you want, but why be married? To experience the joy of joint tax returns and time with the ...
The city of LA -- already half a billion bucks in debt -- shelled out another $1.4 mil to throw the biggest memorial bash in recent memory for Michael Jackon.
Matt Szabo, a spokesman for Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, hailed the tally a success. He said it was "far less" than the initial estimate of $4 million.
The amount included $1.1 million in overtime pay for the 4,173 officers who worked to secure Staples Center, Forest Lawn cemetery and other areas that attracted fans and members o...
Take a deep breath and allow yourself to be open to the possibility that Eddie Furlong's 3-year marriage to 25-year-old Rachael Bella didn't stick. Because it's true. It may rock the very foundations of your world to hear this, but, if it's any consolation, it'll be a lot harder on their 3-year-old son Ethan.
Furlong is currently 31 years old. He's been working steadily since his Terminator days, but nothing very big.
Oh, and just for fun: Remember when he used to date Natasha Lyonne? Man...
The impossibly beautiful Halle Berry has been spending time at a beach in Miami with her impossibly beautiful boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and their impossibly beautiful daughter Nahla. Could these three be more attractive? It's just not, well, possible.

I hope this isn't true, but according to new reports, Britney was caught by her conserva-dad popping pills and washing them down with Red Bull. A source said, "Britney was definitely trying to get high by taking too many diet pills and energy drinks. Jamie thinks the combination of the two is making her whacked-out and, causing her to lash out in weird angry rampages. Britney uses green-tea supplements, [Lab 88’s herbal ephedra-free] Metabo Speed XXX, Dexatrim and apple cider vinegar to c...
There are a few "celebrities" who have their pictures show up on the paparazzi wire almost every day. Shauna Sand is one of them. And I always want to write something about her just so you can all see the ridiculous photos. However, there is never a story to tell about this petrified piece of acrylic -- though Kelly managed one a couple weeks ago and I was very jealous -- other than talking about how she used to be married to Lorenzo Lamas years ago. And I know that none of us c...
Miley's back to being Miley, lounging around looking all sexual. Remember when she was in Vanity Fair and she had a kinda, sorta ambiguous slutty, "I Just Got Out Of The Shower, Thanks For Having Me" look going on? Is thispic of our Christian and virginal Miley taken for August's Elle blatant enough for you?
Anyway, Miley's working hard plugging her new clothing line that she's been working on in partnership with Max Azria. I love when people take their non-essential projects and try to attach serious social meaning to them. I'm going to use her exact quote to ensure that I don't miss a "li...
