Beyonce's "Ring the Alarm" Alligator Album Cover

beyonce-ring_the_alarm.jpg
Beyonce got up close and personal with a couple of alligators on the cover for her single "Ring the Alarm".

And here we thought the closest Bey got to gators was a pair of shoes. PETA is really going to have a field day with this.

Yall need to get off of Bey. She is making the money yall wish yall had. And those gators weren't harmed. I was just at the place where she shot the video and they told us how they did it for her and the animals safety. The people told us. It was at Zam's Swamp Tours in Kraemer Louisiana. Yall really need to stop hating on her. But that's typical reactions when you see a young black female that can sing, dance, is very beautiful, and making money. So yall stop and don't do that to her. I thank you kindly.

Selena says:

Beyonce is a "triple threat". There is no one more creative than she. She took the issue with Peta and her feelings about the intrusion to her family/and uninvited video taping and incorporated her feelings into Ring the Alarm. "She's going to be wearing Chinchilla Coats if I let you go" Wow! You go girl! Hit after hit after hit. No one can top that girl's creativity. Then she is beautiful on top of it. Then the song actually gives a message about commitment and not throwing your investment in someone away carelessly.

Tay says:

yall need to chill out with the bullshit cause all the hatin aint necessary.........if she want to pose with some damn eagles thats her business so stay out her life cause all yall doin is makin her more famous by talkin shit!!!

YaNyChick says:

There's nothing wrong with Beyonce's album cover. It's cute and all but thats not the issue at hand. This is an animal protection issue. Those are two baby alligators in that picture which are not fans of humans and it's a very dangerous situation.... more for the alligators than Beyonce for them to be in a picture together. The point is "animals were harmed in the taking of this photo."

May says:

well first she can do what the hell she wants. I'm sure they didn't specially go somewhere to catch gators..they from the zoo, and it was probalby a nice field trip for them.
second, in my opinion the gators aren't real, they look like they were photoshopped in.
think people taking this way too serious...

April Jones says:

Keep what your doing Beyonece! Girl you are off the hook. You got everything going for you right now, e.g. the hottest man in the business Jay-z, support from your family,a fashion line underway and you get hotter and hotter every year.

That shape of Beyonce's is out of this world. What I'd give for a body like that. Keep up the good work Beyonce, you deserve every blessing moment.

jules says:

shes fly but the alligators are kinda ridiculous...she doesnt need gators to be sexy...its about being cruel to animals so you look cool...and thats screwed up...the gators make it stupid anyway...the gator had to have its mouth taped shut for the shoot....and he peed on her in return...ha ha...karmas a bitch...my advice - lose the gators b...you're losing fans by the second...

BK STAND UP says:

DIME LADY YOU WHACK FOR YOUR COMMENT, SHIT WHERE I AM FROM, IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ME LEAVE IT WITH ME, DONT DISRESPECT MY MOTHER AND IN FRONT OF ME, NAH THAT SHIT IS NOT RIDING. THAT IS INSTINT FUCK UP ON SPOT. FUCK THAT SHIT, NAH SHE GETS NO RESPECT FOR THAT. I CAN SEE HOW YOU WERE RAISED....

BK227 says:

NAH THE SWIM SUIT BEYONCE HAVE ON IN THE PICTURE IS NOT THE SAME SWIM SUIT KELIS HAS ON IN THE VIDEO BUT THE SWIM SUIT IS SOMETHING SIMILAR BUT NOT THE EXACT ONE.

18.

jules says:

This is not so improtant...but people always are being compared to B yet wasn't Kelis rockin the same swimsuit in "bossy" video first which B had to have seen. That video been out for a while. Yet had it been the other way around Kelis would have been compared and talked about. Let B do her thing which is predictable. She good at it but that is B.

Zabrina says:

I do agree with those who would like for people to stop dogging Beyonce. She is such a great talent and very beautiful. I can't wait for her album to come out. But at the same time, it is their opinion. Every time someone says something negative about Beyonce (most of the time, unfortunately) someone always have to say they are a HATER. Let them speak their minds please because some of the time, just to be honest, I get tired of hearing about her too.

20.

Deante' says:

Beyonce keep doing your thing you look beautiful on this picture as usual fuck what everybody talking about do you it seems they always talking but you always selling and for that bitch Ms. Jones fuck her fat ass she aint shit.

21.

Juhnay says:

some of you are being too touchy on this and your name isn't even Beyonce`. no one's denying her talent or beauty but simply speaking on the topic itself which is basically Ring The Alarm the song and it's single cover. don't get so defensive about someone having a opinion opposite of yours on something that in the first place has nothing to do with you. i'm sure even Beyonce` knows everybody won't like what she does.

22.

Nicole says:

IF YOU ARE A FEMALE AND DONT LIKE THE COVER YOUR JUST MAD THAT YOU DONT LOOK THAT BEAUTIFUL AND SEXY......AND IF YOU ARE A MAN AND DONT LIKE THE COVER YOUR GAY.......SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!

tasha says:

Beyonce's that bitch she got it all yall need 2 stop hatin on that woman let her live she's only human

24.

Aisha says:

Yo I think Beyonce is killing it right now. She's a triple threat and better then Ashanti, Cassie, Amerie, or Christnia Millian so stop the hatin!!! She's killing the R&B female game and the only artist to go GOLD when her album ain't even come out yet...top that!

25.

S says:

I think it's a nice pic. I love the bathing suit but some are taking it too far. People are entitled to their opinion of Beyonce. Everybody is not gonna like her. I don't think that every girl who says something negative about Beyonce is hating. I think she is losing her steam by overexposure and people are tired of seeing her but overall she is gonna do well and on her way to being a legend in the business.

BK1035 says:

IF PEOPLE REALLY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING AOBUT THEY WOULD KNOW THAT BEYONCE FIRST ALBUM "DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE" RECIEVED BAD REVIEWS FROM PLENTY OF PROFESSIONALS. BILLBOARD PROFESSIONALS GAVE IT A D-, I THINK HER HIGHEST REVIEWS CAME FROM VIBE, THE SOURCE, EBONY, JET AND SISTER TO SISTER. AS WE CAN SEE IT URBAN PEOPLE THAT WAS SUPPORTING HER, BUT I DONT THINK NONE OF THEM GAVE HER AN A. SHE WAS A B AVERAGE ALBUM TO THEM. THEN WHEN THE ALBUM DROPPED AND EVERYONE REALIZED THAT IS WAS A SUCCESS THEN EVERYONE WANTS TO GIVE HER AN A......SHIT DONT LISTEN TO REVIEWS BE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT BECAUSE THE MEDIA WILL CHANGE BY THE SECOND. ITS REAL BEMBARRASING WHEN YOU RATE AN ALBUM A D- AND THEN IT SELLS 11 MILLION RECORDS WORLD WIDE, 6 IN THE U.S.A, 5 GRAMMY'S, AND NUMEROUS OF AWARDS. COME ON LEAVE BEYONCE. STOP THINKING IN THE BOX AND STEP OUT OF THE BOX.

bk1035 says:

Yo damn leave the girl alone. Shit. How Beyonce looking for some attention. Please define your meanings for stating a comment like that. Shit it is just a picture and a damn good picture. She is not 0 for 2. She is # 1 in the country for bill board hip hop/r&b charts. SHe is reached # 4 on teh billboard hot 100. Deja Vu debuted on the UK billboards charts 100 at #21 and in one week she went to #1. Its her second single to reached #1 in the UK. So please explian how Deja Vu failed as a song. Ring the alarm is getting mad attention right now. RTA is all over the radio and the video is all over TV. Just because a song do not reach number one does not mean that the song failed, because that mean alot of people int eh industry failed. Every thing she does is not going to be a number one hit. Miss Jones hate every female artist that is still making music, she is mad because her career tanked in the mid 90's and she was Jay's jump off back then too. She hates Mariah Carey, she really dont like Mary J like that, she diss both of diddy making the bands, and plenty more. She is trying to do a Wendy Williams. Just leave the girl alone damn, its like every site i go to people are debating over her its really becoming boring. Man yall are just buidling the hype up for her album.....

Marco says:

Some of yall haters need to sit yall B.I.T.C.H ass down don't be mad cuz u ain't the shit yall just stay happy being shit. Cuz thats what you are and if you can't stand her don't say nothin about her or post shit about her find somethin else to do with yo mutha fucken time. Beyonce is the shit no matter what she do. I like Desinty's Child all of them. And if they come out with another cd old or new I will be there to buy it just like everybody eles that like them if people did'nt like them as a group or by her slef they would'nt sold so many cds til this day. Beyonce I like you a hole lot I sing to all Destiny's child music almost everyday and yours and kellys and mesell my bell I like her music to. Keep doing what you doing and don't listen to these bitchs cuz they don't know what good music is. If god bless me with a music career I'll like to make music for you one day. God bless and keep doing what you are doing. Can't wait to see you on M.T.V music awards and for that new cd to come out (B'day) and the (RTA) cover is sexy keep it. would'nt have it any other way

southwest philly cutie says:

look first of all everyone needs to stop hating on hovs B shes killing these r&b chics right now except for ms. keys but everyone else is not messing with her and as far as the photo who gives a rats hairy balls its other stuff going on in the country then worrying about whats the hell she's doing or her next step!

30.

Myron says:

First of all, To the person who wrote the second comment, your spelling is wrong. You cant talk about people if you cant spell. Beyonce' is doing her thing and with each single she gets better and better. Yall haters just mad because she looks better and has achieved more in her life than you'll ever do in yours. She is a 9 time grammy award winner, doing movies, and is dating Jay-z. Keep on doing what you doing Beyonce. Like the saying goes, a flower needs sunshine(people who support you)to grow and it needs dirt too....

31.

guest says:

the cover is not that bad and i actually like the song a lot, i'm so tired of people saying the song is so crappy because that is just their opinion. i know a lot of people who happen to really like this song and say that beyonce is just showing how creative she is by trying new things, and not following in the footsteps as everyone else in the music industry.

32.

Sista says:

Whose idea was it to use this photo? I saw another shot in the same bathing suit that I thought was the cover pick for the RTA single.This photo looks ridiculous.

33.

Nia says:

aside from the song, she should of posed differently, like with her legs spread apart instead of bent to one side. the picture looks odd and strange looking with that position.

34.

Dime Lady says:

Beyonce need to sit her ass down. She's always looking for some attention. She need to spend time on her ugly mama and get the b*tch hooked up with some bomb makeup because she's lookin' like a transvesdike, not the joker. Miss Jones bless your heart for being trying to be nice.

35.

Juhnay says:

why in the world would you do that? sorry to say but compared to the reaction towards her first CD, she's 0 for 2 out of this one.
