Speaking in another documentary snippet about the album, Beyonce revealed: 'I was very aware of the fact that I was showing my body,'

Beyonce stripped off in a number of new videos, but particularly in the video for Partition, which shows her dancing in a strip club.

'I know that there's so many women that feel the same thing after they give birth. You can have your child and you can still have fun and still be sexy and still have dreams and still live for yourself,' she said.

Adding: 'I don't have any shame about being sexual. I'm not embarrassed about it, and I don't feel like I have to protect that side of me because I do believe that sexuality is a power we all have.'

The singer also explained the story behind Partition, and why she chose to film it at the Crazy Horse nightclub in Paris - where husband Jay took her after he proposed.

Why the need to strip off? Why think that anyone actually wants to see it?

I really dislike her. She is a very self centered woman. I very rarely see someone so egotistical. I would be embarrassed if she was my mother.

She's trying to hard to act and sound like Rihanna, she's lost her integrity and likeability in the process. Shame, used to really like and respect her!

Too much exposure kills the celebrity. She needs to go away for a spell.

Just listened to Destiny's Child's 'Nasty Girl' and had to comment. "You make it hard for women like me who try to have some integrity". Um?

How long ago did that surrogate have her baby? You'd think she would have lost that weight by now.
