Beyonce debuts Pepsi "Mirrors" promo, previews new song

View Comments(1)

This morning, Beyonce gave a sneak peek of a song from her upcoming Mrs. Carter album when she released a 61-second video promo for Pepsi. The two recently partnered for the Super Bowl, and the latest video shows Beyonce sipping a can of Pepsi before dancing, surrounded by mirrors. In each mirror, she sees a reflection of previous versions of herself. There's the "Bootylicious" Beyonce, "Crazy In Love" Beyonce, and (of course) "Single Ladies" Beyonce — and then they all dance together to promote the motto, "live for now."

Prior to the video, Beyonce has posted a cryptic six second video with the hashtag #BeyHereNow, asking fans to visit her site at 9 a.m. EST today. It makes sense that the singer would release something new on this date, 4/4/13, considering her obsession with the number 4 (even the digits of this year, 1 and 3, add up to 4). But she was totally one minute late (not that I was sitting here waiting, which I actually was) and it doesn't even matter, because it's Beyonce.

What do you think of the song/promo?

Game of Thrones premieres, The Walking Dead ends

Even though we have to say goodbye to my favorite zombie show tonight, at least we get to say hello to my favorite fantasy show. Bye "The Walking Dead," hello "Game of Thrones." Last week we linked you to "The Walking Dead" finale promo, so this week, here's a peek at what's ahead in season 3 of "Game of Thrones."

Which Sunday night shows do you watch?

Huffington Post loves Ryan Gosling just as much as the rest of us do. That's why they created a video montage of what's arguably his best acting method — staring at things.

To be fair, Ryan Gosling is so good looking that he wouldn't have to do much more than just stare off into the distance in order to get acting gigs and make a lot of money. But his roles in movies like "Half Nelson" and "Drive" do showcase that he's a good actor. Fine, so, he's my favorite actor, and therefore I might be a little biased. No matter — I just provided you with two minutes worth of beautiful Ryan Gosling face to brighten your Thursday. You're welcome!

Three YouTube song covers worth listening to

I have a 45 minute commute into work, sometimes longer, in my really old car, with no iPod hookup. To say I get tired of the Top 40 hits on the radio would be a severe understatement. So I always love when those hits are re-imagined in a new way that make me love listening to the song again. (That’s also part of what makes YouTube so great.) Here are a few of my favorites!

I’m pretty sure I post about Justin Timberlake almost as much as I post about Beyonce, so he’s obviously on my list of people I like. It hasn’t gotten too much radio play that I know of, at least not on the stations I’m listening to, so I haven’t gotten sick of the song just yet. Still, I think YouTube’s Tori Kelly does a pretty great cover of the song!

If that headline sounds weird, it's because it is. But who isn’t a sucker for adorable animal stories? Last week, a story surfaced about eight dachshund puppies who were found in a plastic container in Arkansas. Abandoned.

But then they were rescued by the Rocky Ridge Refuge and got a foster mom — in the form of a giant capybara named Cheesecake.

If you haven’t heard of a capybara, they’re the biggest rodent in the world (bigger than a beaver or a porcupine!) and they’re oddly endearing. So capybara + dachshund puppies = OMG so cute. This week, we got to see Cheesecake and the puppies in action with a video! Enjoy.
