"Beautiful Liar" is an R&B/Latin pop song recorded by American singer Beyoncé and Colombian singer Shakira. The song was written by Beyoncé, Amanda Ghost, Ian Dench, and Norwegian songwriters Mikkel S. Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen (pka. StarGate). It is the first song and the first single released from the deluxe edition of Beyoncé's second studio album B’Day, making it the fifth song (fourth outside the U.S.) released from B'Day. The song was produced by production team StarGate and Beyoncé and it was mixed by Gustavo Celis. It has versions in Spanish, English and Spanglish. It holds the distinction of having the largest upward movement on the Billboard Hot 100, moving 91 positions from 94 to 3 the week of April 7, 2007.
Music video
The video was helmed by Jake Nava, who directed several other Beyoncé videos such as "Crazy in Love", "Baby Boy", "Naughty Girl", and Destiny's Child's "Cater 2 U".
At the start of the video the women's faces are masked by smoke. As the video progresses they are featured against several different backgrounds, including: dawn (Beyoncé) and dusk (Shakira); sheets blown in the wind; bamboo covered in yellow orchids; a room with blue neon lighting and Avestan writing on the walls; and finally a background of stormy weather. Slow dance moves and belly dancing are featured heavily throughout the video, with a breakdown after the bridge. The women wear matching hairstyles and black outfits for the entirety of video.
The video premiered on February 28, 2007 (the same day as the video for "Upgrade U") on 106 & Park and on TRL. The next day, the video debuted on TRL's countdown at number six.[14][15] The video has since reached #1 seven times and has, as of May 23, 2007, retired from the countdown at number #3. In its 40-day-run on the countdown, the video spent 38 days above the #6 position where it debuted. "Beautiful Liar" was nominated for Video Of The Year at the 2007 BET Awards but lost to "Irreplaceable".

Déjà Vu (featuring Jay-Z)
[Intro:]
[Beyonce:] Bass
[Jay-Z:] Uh
[Beyonce:] Hi hat
[Jay-Z:] Uh
[Beyonce:] 808
[Jay-Z:] Uh
[Beyonce:] Jay
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh
Ready?
Uh-huh
[Beyonce:] Let's go get 'em
[Jay-Z:] Uh-huh
C'mon
[Jay-Z Rap]
I used to run base like Juan Pierre
Now I run the bass hi hat and the snare
I used to bag girls like Birkin Bags
Now I bag B ([Beyonce:] Boy you hurtin' that)
Brooklyn Bay where they birthed me at
Now I be everywhere, the nerve of rap
The audacity to have me whipping curtains back
Me and B, she about to sting
Stand back
[Verse 1]
Baby seems like everywhere I go
I see you, from your eyes, your smile
It's like I breathe you, helplessly I reminisce
Don't want to compare nobody to you
[Pre-Hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go
Oh
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
[Verse 2]
Seeing things that I know can't be
Am I dreaming? When I saw you walking past me
Almost called your name
Got a better glimpse and then I looked away
It's like I'm losing it
[Pre-hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go, oh
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
[Jay-Z Rap 2]
Yes! Hova's flow so unusual
Baby, girl you should already know
It's H-O, light up the dro'
'Cause you gon' need help tryna study my bounce, flow, blow
What's the difference?
One, you take in vein while the other you sniffin'
It's still dough, po-po try to convict him
That's a no-go
My dough keep the scales tipping like 4-4's
Like I'm from the H-O-U-S-T-O-N
Blow, wind so Chicago of him
Is he the best ever, that's the argu-a-ment
I don't make the list, don't be mad at me
I just make the hits, like a factory
I'm just one-to-one, nothin' after me
No Deja Vu, just me and my, Oh
[Bridge]
Baby I can't go anywhere
Without thinking that you're there
Seems like you're everywhere, it's true
Gotta be having Deja Vu
'Cause in my mind I want you here
Get on the next plane, I don't care
Is it because I'm missing you
That I'm having Deja Vu
[Pre-hook]
Boy, I try to catch myself
But I'm out of control
Your sexiness is so appealing
I can't let it go
Whoo...
[Hook]
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu
Know that I can't get over you
'Cause everything I see is you
And I don't want no substitute
Baby I swear it's Deja Vu

Ring The Alarm
[Hook:]
Ring the alarm
I been through this too long
But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm
Won't you ring the alarm?
I been through this too long
But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm
[Chorus:]
She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats
If I let you go
Getting the house off the coast
If I let you go
She gon' take everything I own
If I let you go
I can't let you go
Damn, if I let you go
She gon' rock them VVS stones
If I let you go
Couped in the 'bach or the Rolls
If I let you go
She gon' profit everything I taught
If I let you go
I can't let you go
Damn, if I let you go
[Verse 1:]
Tell me how should I feel
When I know what I know,
And my female intuition
Telling me you a dog?
People told me 'bout the flames
I couldn't see through the smoke
When I need answers, accusations
What you mean you gone choke?
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
You can't stay, you gotta go.
Ain't no other chicks spending your dough
This is taking a toll, the way the story unfolds
Not the picture perfect movie everyone would've saw
[Chorus]
[Hook]
[Verse 2:]
Tell me how should I feel
When you made me belong
And the thought of you just touching her
Is what I hate most?
I don't want you but I want it
And I can't let it go
To know you give it to her like you gave it to me, come on
[Pre-Chorus 2:]
He's so arrogant and bold (Oh)
She gon' love that shit, I know
I done put in a call, time to ring the alarm
'Cause you ain't never seen a fire like the one I'ma 'cause
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
How can you look at me
And not see all the things that I kept only just for you?
Why would you risk it baby? Is that the price that I pay?
But this is my show and I won't let you go
All has been paid for, and it's mine
How could you look at me
And not see all the things?
[Chorus]

Irreplaceable
To the left

To the left
To the left
Mmmm to the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
In the closet, that's my stuff
Yes, if I bought it, baby, please don't touch (don't touch)
And keep talking that mess, thats fine
Could you walk and talk, at the same time?
And it's my name thats on that jag
So go move your bags, let me call you a cab
Standing in the front yard, telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact, he'll be here in a minute (baby)
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable?
So go ahead and get gone
Call up that chick, and see if shes home
Oops I bet you thought, that I didn't know
What did you think
I was putting you out for?
Because you was untrue
Rolling her around in the car that I bought you
Baby, drop them keys
Hurry up, before your taxi leaves
Standing in the front yard, telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact, he'll be here in a minute (baby)
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable (irreplaceable)?
So since I'm not your everything (irreplaceable)
How about I'll be nothing (nothing)? Nothing at all to you (nothing, nothing)
Baby I won't shed a tear for you (I won't shed a tear for you)
I won't lose a wink of sleep (a wink of sleep)
'Cause the truth of the matter is (truth is)
Replacing you is so easy
To the left, to the left.
To the left, to the left.
Mmmmm
To the left, to the left.
Everything you own in the box to the left
To the left, to the left.
Don't you ever for a second get to thinking
You're irreplaceable?
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you in a minute
Matter fact, he'll be here in a minute (baby)
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinkin'?
You must not know 'bout me (baby)
You must not know 'bout me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact, he'll be here in a minute
You can pack all your bags we're finished (you must not know 'bout me)
'Cause you made your bed now lay in it (you must not know 'bout me)
I could have another you by tomorrow
Don't you ever for a second get to thinkin'
You're irreplaceable?

Resentment
I wish I could believe you then I'll be alright
But now everything you told me really don't apply
To the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
But now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it's all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like
I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
Just can't seem to get over the way you hurt me
Don't know how you gave another who didn't mean a thing, no
The very thing you gave to me
I thought I could forgive you and I know you've changed
As much as I wanna trust you I know it ain't the same
And it's all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like
I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
I may never understand why
I'm doing the best that I can and I
I tried and I tried to forget this
I'm much too full of resentment
I'll always remember feeling like I was no good
Like I couldn't do it for you like your mistress could
And it's all because you lied
[Bridge:]
Loved you more than ever
More than my own life
The best part of me I gave you
It was sacrificed
And it's all because you lied
[Chorus:]
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like
I tried and I tried to forget this
But I'm too damn full of resentment
I know she was attractive but I was here first
Been ridin' with you for six years why did I deserve
To be treated this way by you, you
I know your probably thinking what's up with Bee
I been crying for too long what did you do to me
I used to be so strong but now you took my soul
I'm crying cant stop crying cant stop crying
You could of told me that you wasn't happy
I know you didn't wanna hurt me
But look what you done-done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes and see she's had half of me
How could you lie

Flaws And All
I'm a train reck in tha morning
I'm a bitch in tha afternoon
Every now in then when I'm horny
I can be really mean towards you
I'm a puzzle yes in deed
Ever complex in everyway
And all the pieces arent even in the box
And yet, you see the picture clear as day.
[Chorus]
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
And that's why I love you [3x]
I neglect you when I'm working
When I need attention I tend to nag
I'm a host of imperfection
And you see past all that
I'm a peasant by some standards
But in your eyes I'm a queen
You see potential in all my flaws
and that's exactly what I need.
[Chorus]
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
and that's why I love you [3x]
[Repeat Chorus]

Listen
Listen,
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But can't complete
Listen, to the sound from deep within
It's only beginning
To find release
Oh,
the time has come
for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own
all cause you won't
Listen....
[Chorus]
Listen,
I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home, in my own home
And I tried and tried
To say whats on my mind
You should have known
Oh,
Now I'm done believing you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice
you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I'd thought had died
So long ago
Oh I'm screaming out, for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside or worse
Into your own
All cause you won't
Listen...
[Chorus]
I don't know where I belong
But I'll be moving on
If you don't....
If you won't....
LISTEN!!!...
To the song here in my heart
A melody I've start
But I will complete
Oh,
Now I'm done believing you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what, you made of me
I followed the voice, you think you gave to me
But now I gotta find, my own..
my ownn...

Black Entertainment Television network is ready to present this year's BET Awards with some hot artists, good music, and expected surprises.
BET President of Entertainment, Reginald Hudlin, and the network's VP of BET Music Programming and Talent, Stephen Hill, headed up the cable network's team to put together the 2007 BET Awards airing tomorrow night, June 26th at 8pm ET/7pm CT.
On tap to appear are a bevy of stars from a plethora of genres, styles, and age brackets, but the show's success formula is based more on who or what is not on tap. After all, this is the show that brought the cast of "Good Times" on stage last year.
So what does it take to bring stars to the stage successfully and keep the show getting better and better? Hudlin told reporters that it's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it.
"It's brutal," he said of trying to improve every year. "Literally, as I watched the show in progress, on one hand I'm relieved because it goes so well ... and then by the end of the show, I get really depressed because I go, 'What the hell are we gonna do next year?', but somehow we manage to pull it off. That's what's exciting. You think you've topped the topper and then you do it again. I'm really grateful for an amazing team of executives that pull the show off every year."
Even with a glitch in the matrix, the show does well. Last year, Hudlin's good friend Damon Wayans hosted the show, but was called a "flop"
as the show's emcee. Still, the 2006 show posted great ratings.
"I was concerned because he was a friend of mine and you hate to see a friend in trouble. The show ended up playing great and we got incredible ratings. It seems kind of bulletproof. Even when things don't work out the way you want to, it keeps on rolling."
This year, BET brings back 2004 host Mo'Nique. Not only did the network look forward to having the comedienne back, but Mo'Nique actually came looking to do the show, too. She apparently wants to go a round with Beyonce.
"Mo'Nique was at the show last year and after she saw Beyonce's performance she made it clear that she had something more to say," Hudlin said.
Beyonce had an incredible performance a few years back with her hit 'Crazy In Love' and when Mo'Nique hosted the 2004 show she did a parody of B's performance. So after seeing the singer perform again last year, Mo'Nique said she needed to take the mic again."
"Mo'Nique really captures the spirit of the BET Awards," Hudlin said for the BET fave. "She never wants to repeat herself; she always wants to top herself. She's a fierce competitor. I think that's one of the things that makes the entire show great. On the one hand it's a family show; meaning not just that it's a show the whole family can watch. The whole black entertainment community comes together as a whole. But like families, you can be competitive. There is definitely a feeling of, 'I've got to bring my A+ game.' That's why the show is so intense."
Intense performances and appearances to be featured this year include T.I., Beyonce, Diddy, Stevie Wonder, and a special performance by 50 Cent to be chosen by the BET audience. The 50 Cent selection is just one of a handful of components on the show that are under the control of the BET viewers. Hill said that while they can't tell what the network has dreamed up for the 2007 show, one thing that he could reveal was BET's concept to make the show special this year.
"We've always done mixed genres [and] mixed demographics on stage - we always try to build those moments and we don't want to tip those," he said of the surprises. "The big thing about this year is we're really trying to involve our audience. How can we make the show different, how can we make it bigger? Involve the audience in the making of the show."
Hill said that the network always tries to make the show special.
"It's really about getting the BET viewer, the BET texter, the BET.com-er involved in the show. We always try to find some way to trip it up. The challenge is we did it successfully early on so now it's expected.
While it's a huge challenge, it's a huge thrill."
Speaking of thrills, Hudlin told reporters what a joy it's been to work on the show and the network in general.
"It's the most fun you can have with your clothes on," he joked. "One minute I'm working on a new primetime animated sketch comedy show, and the next minute, I'm sitting down with the news division creating a news special and then a minute after that we're working on the BET Awards and then I travel over to Paramount and we start developing our slate of BET motion pictures. To be involved in so many mediums, platforms and means of expression and to work with so many creative people, it's a dream come true."
The dream continues tomorrow night on BET 8pm ET/7pm CT. For more on the BET Awards, visit www.bet.com.
"From the very beginning we've made it about bringing together people from different ages," said Hudlin. "We're the only major show that makes sure we have gospel on it; we try to represents all facets of African American entertainment on the BET Awards - from the very beginning."
The Gossip Girls told you earlier this week that Beyonce and Jay-Z were in St. Tropez enjoying a romantic getaway. Now that same vacation has landed them in the Italian Riviera.
Aboard a $2 million yacht, Jay and Beyonce are living the life many of us dream of. The happy couple have found themselves in Portofino, a romantic Italian city.
And Beyonce is looking every bit the curvy hottie she was before dropping 20 pounds for her Dreamgirls role. She reportedly had to lose the weight fairly quickly to get into character for the film. But she’s filling out her bathing suit quite nicely once again.
Miss Bootylicious and Mr Rap Mogul continue to party their cares away aboard the luxury yacht, taking in the European sights by sea. If you happen to be on the Italian Riviera, you just may catch a glimpse of Bootyliciousness!
Enjoy the pictures of Beyonce relaxing in the pool and giving Jay a little TLC

*R&B singer Lil Mo will drop her new album “Pain and Paper” on August 28 through her new independent label HoneyChild Entertainment, reports Allhiphop.com. "I came up with the title ‘Pain and Paper’ because I always felt like in order to get to the top, there is always a struggle, where much is needed, much is required," Lil Mo told the Web site.

*Justin Timberlake tells the U.K. edition of Cosmopolitan he suffered a beatdown as a teenager “for being white.” The singer says he was 13-years-old and living in Memphis, Tenn. when the incident took place and left him with a black eye and broken ribs. “The hard part was trying to understand why it happened. Then you get to a point where you have to let it go,” he said, according to WENN. "When you come through on the other side, you're a much stronger person."
