Winner And Loser: Beyonce And Justin Timberlake

Winner – Beyonce – Not only is she playing the Superbowl of Superbowl Half Time Shows in a couple of week, she is looking quite remarkable in the GQ pictorial, her upcoming album # 5 features The-Dream, her great foil, all over it, and while the world wasn't thrilled by her Destiny Child reunion single, they will be on stage. And if it isn't enough having hubby Jay-Z Carter crazy about her, so ios the President who has placed her front and center at his Inaugural Ball…. again!

Loser – Justin Timberlake – "Suit And Tie" wasn't a bad song but after nearly seven years, Timberlake had a responsibility to her us with crossover pop hit and despite sales of a gasp worthy 350,000 units, he really didn't do that. Justin seemed oddly old fashioned and the huge momentum back into pop seemed if not stalled, still oddly dispirited. PS: those who said Jay-Z's rap wasn't really necessary were right, but not for the reason you think.
