Beyonce's Dad Defends His Daughter, But Not For This Promo Shot

Here is a promo shot for Beyonce's single, Ring The Alarm.

This ridiculous shot needs all the explanation in the world! Everyone is bashing how dumb this photo is, and how editors got crazy with photoshop, slimming down Beyonce. Obviously, Matthew Knowles has lost his focus. This pic needs damage control. But here's Matthew Knowles talking about all the hate Beyonce has received recently:
It is apparent that there is a consistent plan by some to create chaos around Beyonce's B'Day album release on Sept 5 in the US. First, it was a petition against the single, “Deja Vu”, then a rumor regarding conflict between Beyonce and Rihanna, seizures caused by the 'Ring the Alarm' video, putting out a single to compete with LeToya's album and now to add to all the ridiculous rumors, is my plan to postpone the release of her B'Day album. What will be next? Beyonce's cut off all her hair? Dyed it green? Maybe she's singing the songs in reverse with some hidden subliminal message!

Beyonce has sold over a 140 million records as an artist. Over half sold outside of America. 2500 responses for a petition on the internet (which really represents often the same people responding 2-3 times) go online with a petition regarding “Deja V u”, and it's national news? Think about that for a minute. 140 million records sold versus 2500 responses about a video. Does that really equate to a major concern? The answer is No!

This is unique, creative body of work on B'Day (spelling corrected B'Day) and every song is a potential single. Some weeklies reviewed 'Independent Women' and gave it a 'D-' and Beyonce's first album 'Dangerously in Love,' a 'D.'

Beyonce's success or failure for me is not based on the number of records she sells. For me it's based on how proud I am that she is a genuine good person (Ask anyone who's worked with her). That she always has a kind word for others. That she is respectful and honest. That she gives back to her community and that she has so much love for her family. And lastly, she has the confidence not to be bothered by these planned distractions.
