[VIDEO PREMIERE] Beyonce – “If I Were A Boy”

Here’s the official GOT video premiere of Beyonce’s brand new video for “If I Were A Boy.” Be on the lookout for her third studio album, which is rumored to be titled “I Am…” when it hits stores November 18th 2008! But for now, check out the video above and check out Beyonce’s description of the video below:

“It’s kind of like ‘Freaky Friday’,” Beyonce tells Billboard of the concept behind the “If I Were a Boy” clip, where she plays a police officer. “In the beginning of the video, my husband makes me breakfast and he’s excited about it, and I kind of don’t have time to eat. As a police officer, I have a male partner and the video goes through our days. My husband’s at work and has attractive girls flirting with him but he declines their advances. I have a guy flirting with me, and I flirt back.”

Beyonce says the clip will depict common things that men do to hurt their significant others, like not answering their phone.

“It’s about all of the little things that mean so much in a relationship,” says Beyonce. “At the end of the clip, you realize that I was acting out his life, and it all starts over again. He was a cop and everything that happened was really him doing the same thing to me.”

Both videos were directed by Jake Nava, who previously helmed Beyonce’s “Baby Boy” featuring Sean Paul.

Bow Wow’s Walk Across America Hits New York

NEW YORK // FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10TH 2008 » Rapper Bow Wow is trying to get as many people as possible to register to vote (if they’re still able to) and once registered and able, to actually go out and vote at the polls this November. He and singer Michelle Williams participated in a walk on New York City yesterday afternoon.

“I used to think going to the mall and hollering at girls (was) more important,” Bow Wow told reporters. “But in reality, we are in a different time now. My focus now is to take it a step further to make a change and vote.”

Bow Wow, who recently appeared on HBO’s Entourage, launched this “Walk Across America” campaign last Wednesday, and the goal of the movement was to hit as many major cities as possible within 15 days: Philadelphia; New York; Washington; Baltimore; Boston; Nashville, TN; Hartford, CT; Mobile, AL; Richmond, VA; and Columbia, SC.
