Beautiful new video diary from Beyonce

She is such a beautiful person, inside and outside.. She has done so much good in her life and its like shes some kind of hero but then you look and think.. shes just a normal human being just like you or me.. If we put our mind to it, we can achieve anything too.. she is so inspiring!

I love the saying she says about music in the second video at the 6.06 minute mark! I also like they showed all the charity work Bee has done. She is such a amazing person!

Cover Girl: Beyoncé & Gotham Magazine

Los que la adoran ahora estarán en su salsa. Acaba de lanzar su tercer álbum en solitario y está en plena gira promocional. Mires a donde mires, aparece alguna de sus fotos promocionales, sus instantáneas yendo a un lanzamiento o presentación, imagenes oficiales de los eventos, fotos en revistas de moda hechas por los mejores estilistas y los fotógrafos más cotizados, etcétera, etcétara, etcétera.

Those who love her are oh so happy. She just launched her third solo album and currently doing the promotion. Anywhere you look, there is some new promotional picture, paparazzi photos of her going to a presentation, official images from events, photos from fashion magazines done by the best stylists and photographers and so on and so forth.

Esta foto fue una de las primeras.

This was one of ther first promo pictures.


Para esta ocasión Beyoncé, quiero decir Sasha, se ha vuelto a calzar sus botines de ballet por primera vez vistas en su video "Green Lingt".

For this occasion Beyoncé, I want to say Sasha, has put on her ballet heel boots she rocked in her "Green Light" video.

Las herramientas de marketing siguen evolucionando y las giras promocionales son cada vez más complejas. Ya no solo es una rueda de prensa, fotos promocionales, visitas de programas de televisión relacionados con música. Hoy en día en una gira promocional encontramos desde "los básicos de siempre" hasta las apariencias más inesperadas en los programas menos esperados. Todo esto entrelazado con lanzamientos y por lo tanto campañas, eventos y demás relacionad@s con sus projectos y marcas personales por un lado, y por otro lo mismo pero vinculado a sus contratos con otras marcas. Salpicado con alguna colaboración con otro artista, si es aplicable, también con algún miembro de la familia, con la ONG del artista en cuestión y puedo seguir... Todo eso perfectamente planificado y organizado hasta el último detalle. Donde hay que acudir y cuando, el vestuario, el guión, el mensaje que hay que transmitir. Todo todito todo, hasta el último guiño está estudiado, analizado, calculado. Con poco o ningún sitio para la improvisación. Me encanta observar las giras promocionales y sus protagonistas pero también me gusta imaginarme como puede ser la estrategia detrás. Y esto segura de que si fuera posible, la familia Knowles ya hubiera recibido algún que otro Premio Effie por sus campañas.

Marketing tools keep evolving and so do the promotional tours that are becoming more and more complex every time. This is no longer only about a press conference, promo pictures or some music TV programs. What we found included in a promotional tour today are from "all time basics" to the appearances in TV programs and shows you would never link to the album in question in a way you would never think about. All this of course hand in hand with launches , campaigns, events and so on related to the celebrity projects and brands on one hand, and celebrity endorsement on the other. All this sprinkled with a colaboration with another artist, a family member if applicable, a Non-Governamental Organization this star is a face or a founder of and I can go on and on... Everything until the last tiny detail is perfectly planned and organized. Timing, places, wardrobe, script, campaign message that has to be delivered. Everything until the very last wink is studied, analyzed and calculated. With little or no place for the improviaation. Love to follow and observe the promotional tours and love to try to imagine the strategy behind. And honestly think if it was possible, Knowles family would have gotten more than one Effie Award for their campaigns.

A lo largo de las últimas semanas hemos visto a la niña en las portadas de Marie Claire, Essence e InStyle, entre otras. De repente la ves en el aeropuerto JFK, y en un abrir y cerrar de ojos ya tenemos las fotos de la presentación de sus creaciones para Samantha Thavasa en Japón. En un instante la ves vestida de House of Deréon en la presentación de la nueva colección, un parpadeo y te encuentras fotos de ella vestida casual en vaqueros y una camiseta con la cara de Barack Obama... En breve la veremos en la pantalla grande en sus dos últimas películas: Cadillac Records y Obsessed... Ya también te puedes comprar camisetas, bolsas, chapas y otro tipo de merchandising con el texto "I Am Fierce"... y ... y ¡esto solamente es el comienzo querid@s! 

Throughout the last weeks we saw the girl on Marie Claire, Essence or InStyle covers, among others. All of a sudden you see her pictures taken at JFK airport, and in a blink you got photos from the presentation of her line of bags for Samantha Thavasa in Japan. You go through your favourite blogs and see her dressed in House of Deréon during the launch of the last collection and a while after dressed casual in jeans and Barack Obama t-shirt... Her two last movies "Cadillac Records" and "Obsessed" are about being released... If you like the idea, you can also buy some "I Am Fierce" merchanising... and this... this is just the beginning my dear!



Papá Mathew Knowles dijo a la prensa que la versión española se lanzará en Febrero y a finales de Marzo empieza la gira mundial. Canadá, Europa, EEUU, Méjico, América Latina, Las Vegas, Japón, Asia y Australia. En total 110 conciertos con el último planificado para finales de Noviembre 2009. Así que tenemos bastante Beyoncé para un año. Los fans aplaudimos con las orejas, los menos o no fans se tendrán que aguantar, aunque muchos, como siempre, se sorprenderán que a pesar de que no les gusta ella o su música, después de todo esta campaña y de tanto oír sus canciones todos los días, se les quedarán pegadas...

Father Knowles told press that a Spanish version of the album will be out in February along with a video anthology. Beyoncé will then launch a world tour in the last week of March. After starting with Canada, she’ll hit Europe, the U.S., Mexico, South America, Las Vegas for one week, Japan, Asia and then Australia, with the tour slated to end next November. 110 concerts in total. The fans are applauding, the non fans will have to live with it and as always, many of them will suprisingly find out that after all the campaign and after having heard the songs so many times, some of the songs have just got under their skin and that not only they know the lyrics , but they even sing them unintentionally...

Este es de momento su último trabajo como modelo. La última vez ha sido hace dos años (la foto a la izquierda). Beyoncé vuelve a protagonizar la portada de Gotham Magazine. Por supuesto con su editorial y entrevista (que no nos revela nada nuevo pues lo mismo ya lo hemos leído en otras publicaciones... y eso, entre otros, eso es a lo que me refiero cuando digo que casi no hay espacio para la improvisación... sale una revista nueva, con un editorial nuevo, con un texto "promocional" que ya se ha visto en otras revistas, blogs fans y no tan fans... y es una pena... no digo que las estrellas deben hablar de su vida privada, pero que se inventen una cosa diferente para cada revista... hay tantísimas posibilidades y opciones... hay tantos temas... tantas herramientas de publicidad convencional y no convencional, tantas relaciones públicas y tan poca imaginación a la hora de preparar los artículos y entrevistas, ¿no te parece?). Dicho esto, la sesión de fotos hecha por Tony Duran, está muy bien.

This is her last work as a fashion model. The last time it was two years ago (picture above). Beyoncé graces again the cover of Gotham Magazine. Of course with the respective editorial and interview (that doesn't reveal anything we wouldn't know or read in another magazine... see, this is what I have in mind, among others, when saying there si almost no space for improvisation... so many possibilities, so many options... so many topics to talk about... so many tools of conventional and non-conventional advertising and PR and so little imagination... when it comes to an article or intrview they are all the same... all alike... don't you think so?). Having said this, I love the editorial by Tony Duran.

Auquí la tienes. Vestida de Calvin Klein, Naeem Khan, Chanel, Dior, Versace, Yohji Yamamoto y Alexander McQueen.

Here she comes. Dressed in Calvin Klein, Naeem Khan, Chanel, Dior, Versace, Yohji Yamamoto and Alexander McQueen.








En una de sus entrevistas Beyoncé mencionó que los diseñadores que en este momento más le gustan son Alexander McQueen y Jean Paul Gaultier. Con esto ya sabemos en quienes pensar para identificar sus próximos modelitos. Esta foto es de la semana pasada. Beyoncé de camino a Japón, vestida de negro. Su chaqueta es de Alexander McQueen. Lo interesante es que la "cola" de la chaquetilla te la puedes dejar suelta, como la lleva ella, o recogida, como la luce la modelo. Zapatos estoy segura de que podrás identificarlos inmediatamente. Giuseppe Zanotti, el diseñador preferido de la cantante. Y su bolso tampoco te lo tengo que presentar mucho...

In one of her recent interviews she mentioned that her two designers of the moment are Alexander McQueen and Jean Paul Gaultier. With this we know whom to think about when ID-ing her next outfits. This pictures are from the last week. Beyoncé in black on her way to Japan. Her jacket is by Alexander McQueen. The interesting part is the tail that you can wear unfolded like herself or you can fold it, as you can see on the photos of the model. Her shoes I'm pretty sure you can ID them inmediately. Giuseppe Zanotti, another beloved designer ofhers. And her bag, I don't have to present it to you either...


... pues entra al club en el que ya tenemos a Blake Lively, Bar Rafaeli, Victoria Beckham, Halle Berry (lo tiene en dos colores), Jessica Simpson y CIndy Crawford, entre otras.

... since she joins quite a big club of fashion queens. Blake Lively, Bar Rafaeli, Victoria Beckham, Halle Berry (has it in two colours), Jessica Simpson and Cindy Crawford, among others.
