Destiny's Child Reunites in Michelle Williams "Say Yes" (Matthew A Cherry, dir.)

Michelle Williams has Jesus on her side — and maybe just as importantly, former groupmates Beyonce and Kelly Rowland — in a casual Destiny's Child reunion that takes on a Carribean Christian motif.

A Massive Star-Studded Trailer for Jay Z & Beyonce "Run" (Melina Matsoukas, dir.)

Holy crap. An all-star, action packed trailer for Jay Z and Beyonce first feature film coming... NEVER. So, breath a sigh of relief, since all involved surely know that this compilation of action flick cliches would be a clunker even by Hollywood crap standards.

That said: We get Beyonce at her hottest, Jay at his most badass and cast that would be the envy of any blockbuster: Sean Penn, Don Cheadle, Guillermo Diaz, Emmy Rossum, Jake Gyllenhaal, Blake Lively, Rashida Jones and Kidada Jones.

And if you want to see Jay and Bey' on the run together: Go get your tickets for their tour — which is what this trailer is really meant to promote.

Beyonce "Partition" (Jake Nava, dir.)

See what you've been missing if you didn't buy the Beyonce Visual Album?

"Partition" has finally been officially released to the interwebs and calling it sexy would be an understatement. And hopefully you have somebody who's as willing and able to get your attention.

The Aftermath: Beyonce Scores Huge Critical and Commercial Hit with Visual Album

Beyonce, Beyonce, Beyonce. Friday was all about the pop star thanks to the Kamikaze release of a visual album that broke all the rules: No set-up, no radio, no traditional press, no retail version (yet), no proper single or focus track, and a video for every song and then some.

How'd it do?

Numbers wise it looks like a smash: Billboard editor Bill Werde is reporting she's sold approx 600k units via the iTunes exclusive making for a #1 chart debut even though it only had three sale days in the charting window:

Beyonce "Grown Woman" (Jake Nava, dir.)

Grown Woman is the bonus video for Beyonce's new album, which is perhaps why it's the loosest and more fun clip of the bunch, mixing up videotaped memories with a present tense that's equally interlaced glory.

Beyonce "Blue" (Beyonce, Ed Burke, Bill Kirstein, dir.)

The bulk of the video is set in a Rio favela and focused on the people there, but it's all about Beyonce's daughter Blue, who make a cameo.

Beyonce "Heaven" (Beyonce, Todd Tourso, dir.)

Things get spiritual and even mournful in "Heaven," but good memories prop her up and keep her on the journey... It's part travelogue, part spirtual quest and part video diary...

Beyonce "Flawless" (Jake Nava, dir.)

Can the anger be traced to losing on Star Search to a bunch of dweebs named Sketelon Crew? Or, to phrase it another way: Did Ed McMahon hurt Beyonce?

Two vintage Star Search clips with Beyonce bookend this rough and tumble video homage to Grunge (complete with moshing and flannel).

Beyonce "XO" (Terry Richardson, dir.)

This is a video which we knew was coming, since it's hard to keep a public shoot in Coney Island a secret.

"XO' is a celebration of summer love, directed by Terry Richardson, who you know from "Wrecking Ball" and probably so much more.

Beyonce "Mine" (Pierre Debusschere, dir.)

Beyonce as Mother Mary via Classical Art? There's definitely a Pieta vibe to this video's first set-up, but then things evolve into a frenzied, yet graceful dance to represent the singer and new mother coming to terms with the familial intermingling of your, mine and ours.

Drake is also in the equation (or, at least on the track and in the video)

Beyonce "Jealous" (Beyonce, Francesco Carrozzini, Todd Tourso, dir.)

"Jealous" starts just like "Partition," but this time she ain't dancing for anybody and not in the mood to be pent up and lonely.

Beyonce "Partition" (Jake Nava, dir.)

Beyonce as show girl who works hard for her money, but even harder to hold Jay Z's attention (and other things).

A classier setting than the Houston strip clubs of "No Angel," but there's a core similarity that Beyonce makes abundantly clear...

Beyonce "Yonce" (Ricky Saiz, dir.)

Supermodels in a music video never hurts. Go ask George Michael or Duran Duran. And lest you think the trio of Jourdan Dunn, Joan Smalls and Chanel Iman would overshadow Beyonce, well, guess again.

A perfect display of street fashion ennui directed with an effortless vibe by Supreme creative designer Ricky Saiz.

Beyonce "No Angel" (Lil Internet, dir.)

Back to Beyonce's childhood home of Houston where there's not many choices: Drug dealing, stripping. Being an Angel? Not quite so lucrative on those mean streets.
