In this ground-breaking bit of video editing, we see Beyonce copy Kylie Minogue copy Samus from Metroid Prime. These poptarts might think they're a crafty bunch, but we -- the gaming community -- sniff out plagiarism better than dogs sniff the nether regions of complete strangers.
Honestly though, if Beyonce's going to rip off the act of another artist, the least she could do is do it better. It's like one of those counterfeit Louis Vuitton bags they sell in Chinatown; it isn't a tribute, it's a blatant slap in the face. From enough electrical bells and whistles to light all of North Korea to C-3PO (AHA another rip-off!), it's a definite artistic step down. When one considers the fact that Beyawnce is supposed to be a music industry luminary, how does this reflect on pop culture as a whole?
Not well, my darling reader, not well at all...
