Why should she ask if it is an homage? Did she went to Diana Ross's house and ask her if she could use her image in her video?
And what kind of unoriginality. This is the 4th video this era and it is the only one using references to past eras. She directed 1+1 herself, what was unoriginal about that? What was unorignal about RTW? BTINH?
It is just like the mindblowing performance she did at the BB awards, the person who made the concept, is sellingit to various artists and the fact that he sold it to Beyoncé after he sold it to some other underground artists was suddently labelled as "plagiarism". You guys try too hard to discredit her but as long as worthy media know the deal and can see the brillance in the woman, no big deal.
You guys will make it seem like she has no idea on her own when she has way more than most of your faves here. Did she steal her whole booklet like some? No she recreated 40's dance moves in a video which was suppoed to be about referencing everything that has been iconic in pop culture the last few decades.
