June 12, 201114 yr Set for an official UK release on July 3, the week after the album's release. :wacko:
June 14, 201114 yr She's rumoured to be filming the video in France at the moment: THEREALKIMBURSE KIMBERLY BURSE "I used to want you so bad! ..I'm so through with that! Cuz honestly u turned out 2 B tha best thing I never had" saaaang Beyoncé! Lol! 3 hours ago
June 15, 201114 yr Back in New York now to film the video: @Bbrill Bethany Brill Shooting #Beyoncé music video in Sleepy Hollow New York http://wintercenter.homestead.com/SleepyHollow02132008-1.jpg http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/7d/65/1a/sleepy-hollow-church.jpg
June 16, 201114 yr Is that the wisest decision to be all over radio , with the video not out and not being able to purchase the song?
June 16, 201114 yr They must be looking to create "buzz" for it before it is released, after the relative flop of Run The World (Girls), to guarantee a top ten placing. It's a MUCH better song too, I really love it. I hope it doesnt suffer with all the negative press/reviews of her latest material...
June 20, 201114 yr An onset source for Beyoncé's "Best Thing I Never Had" video, which was shot in Westchester County on Wednesday and in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, on Thursday, tells us although the bootylicious Beyoncé was sweet as sugar on set, it was her mother, Tina Knowles, who demonstrated some serious divalicious 'tude. According to the insider, the four assistants (count 'em!) the elder Knowles had following her around were calling her "Miss Tina" — "which sounded like a joke." But it wasn't: "The crew was told to call her 'Miss Tina' if they were to talk to her at all," our source reveals. Her real inner prima donna was displayed on Thursday, while the "prom scene" shoot was filmed at the Brooklyn Masonic Temple near the Pratt Institute. Tina, who heads the House of Deréon fashion label with her eldest daughter, "flipped out on the camera guys for making Beyoncé stand near the extras for too long" because there was too much conversation going on between takes. Apparently, Mama T was "worried" the lowly extras would talk to her darling daughter. But it was the other way around. Beyoncé "was fine with [talking to anyone]. She was making everyone laugh." Clad in a purple dress, the 29-year-old singer was talking to the cast and crew about how not being prom queen in the video reminded her of how she never wore the coveted tiara at her own high school dance. But not everything in this video mirrored reality: Our onset source tells us Beyoncé said it was "weird" not to have her real father, Matthew Knowles, walk her down the aisle in the wedding scene, which took place in a Sleepy Hollow country club on Wednesday. (Beyoncé was escorted down the aisle by her father when she wed Jay-Z in April 2008 in the rapper's Tribeca apartment.) As we reported late last week, Beyoncé flew in from Nice, France, where she was rehearsing a show to film the Diane Martel-directed video. It's no surprise then that rumors flew among cast and crew that Beyoncé's hubby was in his wife's trailer last Thursday in Brooklyn, but sources didn't actually spy the mogul on the set. A spokeswoman for Beyoncé with reference to Tina Knowles did not get back to us by press time.http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2011/06/...l#ixzz1Po36YPjy
June 23, 201114 yr The Korean market is weirdly huge for singles/downloads. Anyone know the state of album sales there?
June 24, 201114 yr The Korean market is weirdly huge for singles/downloads. Anyone know the state of album sales there? Isn't it because the songs are so cheap to download legally there?
June 24, 201114 yr World exclusive sneak preview of @Beyonce's new video of 'Best Thing I Never Had' on @PiersTonight MONDAY. #BeyonceOnCNN
June 24, 201114 yr Isn't it because the songs are so cheap to download legally there? Also it's because the Digital Chart is not only based on legal downloads but also streaming and ringtones. Albums sales are much lower, the best selling albums per month in 2011 so far have sold as high as 230k (January) and as low as 51k (March).

June 28, 201114 yr This is currently #2 on iTunes - I would LOVE for it to go #1 on there/officially, she really deserves one from this era, and it'll show all the naysayers where to stick it. EDIT: US radio play is increasing quite rapidly! :D BEYONCE - Best Thing I Never Had: 25.924 (+ 1.187) Edited June 28, 201114 yr by THEO.
June 29, 201114 yr #6 in the midweeks today, and it's #1 on iTunes currently. If it stays there until Sunday, I can see her scoring her 6th solo #1! :D
