While most of you loved Britney's "Womanizer" video another big female star released a video this weekend. Beyonce's "If I Were A Boy" video came out and since it was her single you liked more, see if the video lives up to the track. It tells a story with a dramatic switch halfway through — check it out below and let us know — love it or leave it?

Kinda snoozy
1Um, what was that?
2I'm not a Beyoncé fan,
3but I absolutely loved the video,
and the song is awesome.
hmm at least the guy was sexy??? lol
4Great, I love Beyonce the Singer!
5I liked it.
6Wow i didnt expect it to be sooo good!I loved it
7love the song, the video meh
8There should be an 'it was okay' option. The switch was way after halfway too.
9Don't like the song. Don't get why she would make a song like this. The video seems well made. I don't like the song so the video makes little difference.
10It's a great video!
11Yeah, it was good
12I don't even get it...
13Not really a Beyonce fan, but I don't hate her. Can't stand the song, thought the video was interesting.
14What's so hard to get?
15Can't stand her or her music, and I watched Dreamgirls this weekend for the first time and if it's possible, it made me like her even less.
16I like how it actually tells a story unlike some of the videos you see where the video has nothing to do with the song and its lyrics.
17Ack! I hate this cover! The original by BC Jean is still better.
18ok beyawnsay maybe not be not top on my list BUT i have say I like the video and song...once you get passed her screaming its really good. go'head.
19on the *
20I agree Giggles, Like her Deja Vu video.
21Um, Ciera already did this basically. Her song is "Like a Boy" but it's the same thing. Watch the videos...very similar. Be more original Beyonce!
22I thought the song and the video were sort of boring, and the message is awful. Since when are guys the only ones who do this sort of thing? I hate spreading the idea that men are all dogs... it totally disrespects the good guys out there, and it implies that women are never at fault.
23Cant stand her she makes my skin crawl but video was good concept!
24I agree HLHArts, I don't like the double standards that get implied. Especially since girls cheat just as much as boys, and girls play just as many games too.
But you cannot say all girls, or all boys becuase there are very decent people out there who are good partners.
25B's video is nothing like Ciara's , true they are both in black and white but that's about. Ciara's was all about dancing because she can't sing.
26All Beyonce hating prejudice aside, I really liked this song and video.
PS I don't think this video implies all men are like that...in fact she never uses the word MAN she uses BOY and I don't think thats a coincidence.
27it is kinda boring but i still like the story of it. and she does look really amazing
28I am sure there are all times we feel that way about our SO sometimes
29i thought it was crap. then again, i don't like things that are sexist.
30no i think it was really good , the video is well done and the idea is kinda scary cause both men and women make same mistakes to the other sex but still like the music video
31i think this song and video are amazing. such a different song.
32I don't think she's reinforcing gender stereotypes when it comes the being a cop. At the end of the video his partner is a woman cop. I liked it a lot. Of course both men and women can be culpable of this kind of behavior, but it's still cool to put it out there.
I loved the concept and she looks gorgeous!
33The song is okay, and I would like the video but it was confusing to me at first. So the whole time Beyonce's bf in the video is actually the cop and he's the one who is hitting on his cop partner? Uhh ok.
It seems like she is reinforcing stereotypes rather than breaking them down.
34That's true, misskastar. You made a good point
35Don't like her and don't like the song its pathetic and it has no direction.Thank u for allowing me to voice my opinion.
36Good grief haven't we seen enough of her bad acting?
37Ha! YES, Rosa Dilia!
38I don't like her ballads, and I hate when she [tries to] act.
I like her dance song a WHOLE lot more!
39I think it's trying to bring attention to double standards between men and women. Both genders do hurtful things in relationships but in today's society I do think it's guys who tend to get away with more. E.g. women are more likely to stick with a cheater.
40I like the song, and I like the video. I'm not a huge Beyonce fan, but I was a Destiny's Child fan in my teens, and I think her voice is beautiful...
41I don't want to spark any Beyonce vs Britney stuff, but Beyonce's grown up, and I love all she says about not endlessly trying to be "the hottest chick in the club" and some sexy young girl.
42Men are stupid most of the time. Trust me, I know! I'm glad such a mature voice is coming from our girl.
Britney might want to stop trying to be sexy again to "prove" that she's back on top of her game, and instead just try to be a sane human again, making real music.
i love it. but not just because she looked good. i didnt even really notice that. it was just perfect. amazing song, and great turn in the video. wonderful, beautiful, fantastic.
43@ lindsaybriggs, I actually love Beyonce, but I agree with you that Ciara did excatly the same song and pretty much the same concept. It was also in Black and White! Seriously, i expected more from beyonce. I guess her's could be considered more arty though, since it has "plot" and all...
44I liked it =)
45That was soo soo good!!! When I first heard the song, i wasn't into it, but all together i love it!
46DUH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!
47and in my country GIRLS chase after boys
I am not a fan of her and her music but this one - I love it.
48it's okay
49I liked the video - and I like the song a lot.
