Oooh yeeeah! Nelly’s so damn sexy, I’m totally flashed. It’s a great video and Nelly is more beautiful than she ever was… AWESOME!
Keep on rocking.
Corky
P.S. The only thing disturbing me at all, is that Nelly’s gonna be too much commercial with her new style of music. It’s a bit sad, because she looses her own kind of “Nellyness”.
BUT: I’ll keep loving her! Sure!!!

yeahh!!! that’s my only fear, how comercial will nelly be with this new release, cuz’ I’ll love how she showed her personalitity at the start, now, she sounds good but kinda diferent, I hope this album keep someting about her crazy lyrics and funny sounds…. let’s wait… but I like the video it’s great, and there is no doubt the album is gonna hit

That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. What happened to Nelly Furtado? Didn’t she used to be an advocate for positive female role-models? I mean, a song about being a slut isn’t quite in the mold she created. I would gauge this as a sell out if she hadn’t already sold out to Pepsi five years ago.

Im lovin this tune but i agree with some of you’s when u say its not really Nelly’s style. You can just tell this is Timberlands work not hers and her own style is whats made her unique and succesful.
Still lovin the song Promiscuous tho.

nelly is hot just agrees its too slutty for her and its getting too much like all of the things we see todaie. but still look at it from the other way, by changing her image she’s bound to get more audience and fans..
ps… doesn’t she have a kid tho? imagine if the kid sees his mamaa on tv
stina on
May 20th, 2006
i have to say that i am losing all respect for her…there was a n old article about her that i saved where she said saomething like “it would be so easy to conform but im going to stick my neck out and just be myself.” so much for that huh?! i was so looking forward to her new cd but now i really cant bring myself to care. sorry nelly. u just arent tthe same.

Whoa Nelly!!! WTF are you doing??!?!? Holy cows. Selling out is one thing, but this is practically prostitution. And its bad. Real real bad. I will never cease being surprised at what people will do for $$$. She looked and acted exceptionally whore-like on SNL. And she’s a bad dancer. Real real bad. Holy cow. I can’t stop laughing.
Jane on

What the f*$% happened to Nelly? It seems she has completely lost her identity, and for what, more cash and publicity? Great, another sell out by a singer I once had respect for. Her performance on SNL was sad, and her new music video is even sadder. I guess something like this is inevitable in today’s music industry. It’s good she lasted as long as she did. BIG disappointment!

Umm, her last “folky” album didn’t sell well, so now she’s trying her hand at dance pop. She couldn’t have found a better collaborator than Timbaland, and she looked *hot* on SNL. You little girls looking for some Tori Amos-style rainbows and unicorns will just have to get over it when her album goes double platinum. I always laugh when somebody accuses a pop singer of selling out!
So sad. Her SNL “performances” were awful. I agree with everyone who commented that she can’t dance. She is trying to imitate Fergie and Shakira but falls really short. Her voice is not suited to the kind of rap/hip hop she’s trying to do. All around bad choices for her. I hope her child never sees this phase of her “career”. Nelly, stop trying to be a teenager, it doesn’t work for you — You look terribly silly.

It’s very different (from what she does & from what’s on the air) & I love it.
Life is not perfect. In this world we often have to do things for money. ( hopefully not real prostitution) But.. in terms of characters we must all make sacrifices. Nelly is 38 and she has a kid. Chances are she is thinking about earning some money with her physique while she still can so that she can put back some money for her kid to go to university. If you don’t like her new style, turn off the damn stereo. If you like her new style, then you can see that she is an ADAPTABLE, INTELLIGENT BUSINESS WOMAN WHO IS SELLING VERY ATTRACTIVE MATERIAL TO GUYS (not teeny bopper girls like back in the late 90’s and 00&2001. And guess what little baby baby poopy high school girls. Guys in their 20’s and 30’s love hot older mama types who are still super sexual because they have MAD SKILLZ THAT YOU CAN’T EVEN UNDERSTAND AND IF YOU DID YOU WOULD HAVE AN ANEURISM AND EXPLODE RAINBOW COLOURED POOP IN YOUR PANTS FOREVER AND EVER! Nelly Furtado is super hot! Little baby gorilla-like high school girls need to take lesson to Nelly Furtado. ME GUSTA NELLY! ME ENCANTA NELLY! YO QUIERO NELLY!!! give the mama some credit! some day you little baby teen age girls will be whores too and you better hope you have the mad skillz Nelly has at 38 because you’ll probably be fat lard-ass martha stewart watching pansies who couldn’t get down on a d][ck without crushing a fellow!

Hey, c´mon, give the girl a chance, she´s trying a different style and its kinda risky but I guess she´s smart enough to rectify if its necessary.I loved her past stuff and i like her latest endeavours. She´s gorgeous, maybe she don´t know how to dance but still gorgeous. Maybe this step was right or maybe not but who knows? And definetely it´s not a matter of “losers” as someone said. Tho perhaps she has to pay less attention to those americans!!!!
emily on
June 25th, 2006
I’m extremely disappointed in the change for Nelly.
What happend to songs like “Turn off the light”? or “I’m like a bird”?
She’s thrown away her feminist values for songs called “Promiscuous.”
Because this style of music and our culture of over sexualised, submissive females is so popular in our culture, it’s obvious this is a sell out. How can one move from two such styles like this? To sell more albums. Of course.
Obviously, This is NOT to bring in the money to “Support her child.” Attention. Shes famous. What more money could she possibly need?
BUT. We do need to take into consideration that she is her own person, who can make her own decisions. And, it is true that it was her decision to make this sudden, unbeleivaly switch. So here is my opinion.
I beleive that this 28 year old mother…should be the one to grow up.

wow. i’m glad so many other people felt confused and sad about nelly’s video and ‘transformation.’ i am especially sad that the music industry has created a market where women have to prostitute themselves just to be marketable. i think nelly was WAY hotter when she was just being her fun, juicy, singing (not fronting like a rapper), soul-searching self. i hope people can get back to the roots of why we make music. i agree with the person who told her to stop listening to the american publicists and producers and go back to her inner voice.
there are enough people who want the real nelly, not the cookie-cutter ho that could be anyone with tiny waist and high cheekbones. come back home nelly! we miss you.

And anyone you likes Her new Slut look is no better than a Dog who can’t keep his member in his pants. If the words, which they don’t, condem promiscurity then her music video and image CELEBRATE it.
She is just a mom who is trying to get her youth back by selling her body! HELLO Nelly you are young and Beautiful! Thanks for telling us all that to be beautiful we need to not have a brain and show our bodies to guys cause they don’t have an imagination! Well mine does!
Sam on

I agree with Emily. Nelly used to be a respectable artist. Now, all I see is another run of the mill pop whore with no self respect who’s dancing all over some guy just to sell more albums. This oh-so-common image is why alot of young teenage girls are acting the same way.

Wow i am really surprise to see all of the negative comments given by some of these jerks here who don’t really know what NF music is all about… When her single “Promiscous” just released - all you dumb ass thought she can’t get that far… Well, look who made a record of having the song Number 1 for 9 fuckin weeks in a row!!!
Maybe all you dumbass shouldn’t picture yourself as being Nelly Furtado - she doesn’t actually think like you and besides, she is 10 times ahead more than your stupid lame mind. Perharps do more research of how people thinks both the goods and the bads. Don’t just use one side of your head silly
P.S. but i don’t really like the new video though - but i guess she is just being herself
Cheers
NELLY FOREVER

It’s disgusting how she’s sold out to mainstream hip hop and feeding a sexual image, encouraging girls to be slutty and guys to think we should be sluts. It’s good to experiment with different styles, but it’s so obvious she cares more about the money than the music, emotion, and message that she used to.
And the whole point we are giving negative comments is because we DO know her true style, and we wonder where it has gone. We’ve been with her from the start, not just hopped on the bandwagon ’cause this song has a catchy tune and she’s a better dancer. Her style was much different, much more original, much more from-the-heart than what we hear now - rather, what everyone’s doing now. She’s just transformed into something that will give her money and fame. And the problem is that she’s trying to get so far, by any means possible, that she’s lost sight of herself.
Someday, when she’s gotten all the damn green she wants, I hope she can rediscover the passion in music and disregard the dollar signs.

DOROTHY- calm down far out. Do you realise that selling songs is her career? If she can better her career why wouldn’t she? I’ve been a fan of Nelly’s since I’m Like a Bird, I’ve been there all the way too. You should be happy that she’s doing so well. Of course her old albums were more artistic- Folklore was awesome but it got nowhere. Let her experiment, let her feel more sexy, more adventurous. A lot has changed since she first came out; she’s a mother now, do you know how much that changes you as a person? I’m proud of her.
Lena on

hey
I absolutely agree with whoa_karen!
I already heard that not everybody is happy about Loose, but I think it’s very cool. I love this album!
She has changed, that’s right, but that’s quite normal, I think. Everybody’s changing. And her first album Whoa Nelly! was published in 2002, that’s a long time!
In my opinion, it’s even bad not to change in a way. that would mean you don’t develope.
And we all can hear that Nelly developed. As a person but also as musician.
I also am very proud of her!!!

I’m really suprised and not in a positive way about Nelly Furtado. Where did her good music go? She sold her soul to the devil or what? I used to think wow an artist in the pop world thats good… now shes just a Britney brunette… I hope she goes back to what she used to do!
old fan on
November 20th, 2006
Damn… Oh well, another good mainstream artist has fallen off. Much like the Black Eyed Peas did when they hired that Fergie, NF has resorted to generic R&B. I admit, I’m pretty anti what’s in the charts, but NF I had alot of respect for. The “Turn off the light” and “Radio” tunes were really, really catchy and didn’t conform with what music was “hot” at the time.
I’d like to see the Nelly Furtado who collaborated with J5 back please!!!
HONEYPOT on
November 21st, 2006
She used to be cool collabos with J5 and other interesting collabs too
She had her own little flavour kinda R&B a smidge of hip hop ,urban bohemian even, almost a little leftfield still with a little pop thrown in—–
u know she wouldn’t be out of place in a slam poetry nigh or a protest—-infact i’m having difficulty defining what she used be like and that was a good sign!
she appeared to have a soul then…b4 she was different
I agree with old fan said:
‘Much like the Black Eyed Peas did when they hired that Fergie, NF has resorted to generic R&B.’
Its a real shame
I’m all for evolving and changing but change for the better girl not for the worst….dont follow Black Eyed Peas tactics!!
In the words of O’Jays ‘For the love of money ….dollar bills y’all!!!!!’
Have u heard her wack new song ‘All Good Things Come To An End’ she couldn’t of put it better.

January 31st, 2007
OMG guys she is so not a sell out. I mean she is trying a new thing with this dance pop style, i mean that is what music is about, if you cant sell records by being original and creative then you should put on a mini skirt and do the Britney Spears thing duh…. Yes! now I can turn on the radio and hear Nelly all day… wait, is that nelly? its hard tell but its like she singing to me! she is so cool.

Did anyone ever find out who the lead male dancer (aka. justin look a like) was?
who do you think you are Nortel? re-releasing an album with 3 additional tracks when most people have already bought the original one? is that not ripping off your fan a bit for a little too much commercial gain? fans don’t want seven copies of the same album in every colour of the rainbow, contrary to popular belief these days…did I hear someone say free downloads? just a thought ~
ripoff… when you’re done re-releasing the same album in 3 years let me know and ill burn you a copy of the one I made free and it didnt take 3 iterations… get it right the first time and be fair to the paying fans… who do you think you are Nortel ?
This video is so HOT!!!! and so is Nelly of course!!! I can’t wait for “Maneater” video…i’m sure it0ll be as good as this one!!! xD!!

wow. i’m glad so many other people felt confused and sad about nelly’s video and ‘transformation.’ i am especially sad that the music industry has created a market where women have to prostitute themselves just to be marketable. i think nelly was WAY hotter when she was just being her fun, juicy, singing (not fronting like a rapper), soul-searching self. i hope people can get back to the roots of why we make music. i agree with the person who told her to stop listening to the american publicists and producers and go back to her inner voice.
there are enough people who want the real nelly, not the cookie-cutter ho that could be anyone with tiny waist and high cheekbones. come back home nelly! we miss you.
I Just like the sound of it, its got a good beat.
NeLLY Girl you have sold us out, Guys are droolin over your “new” image, but I guess That is what you wanted!
And anyone you likes Her new Slut look is no better than a Dog who can’t keep his member in his pants. If the words, which they don’t, condem promiscurity then her music video and image CELEBRATE it.
She is just a mom who is trying to get her youth back by selling her body! HELLO Nelly you are young and Beautiful! Thanks for telling us all that to be beautiful we need to not have a brain and show our bodies to guys cause they don’t have an imagination! Well mine does!
I agree with Emily. Nelly used to be a respectable artist. Now, all I see is another run of the mill pop whore with no self respect who’s dancing all over some guy just to sell more albums. This oh-so-common image is why alot of young teenage girls are acting the same way.
Love, dis tune! The first thing I put on my Ipod, the last I’ll take off! Nelly, keep up da work baby!
Wow i am really surprise to see all of the negative comments given by some of these jerks here who don’t really know what NF music is all about… When her single “Promiscous” just released - all you dumb ass thought she can’t get that far… Well, look who made a record of having the song Number 1 for 9 fuckin weeks in a row!!!
Maybe all you dumbass shouldn’t picture yourself as being Nelly Furtado - she doesn’t actually think like you and besides, she is 10 times ahead more than your stupid lame mind. Perharps do more research of how people thinks both the goods and the bads. Don’t just use one side of your head silly
P.S. but i don’t really like the new video though - but i guess she is just being herself
Cheers
NELLY FOREVER
Oh her now video which i was talking about is “No Hay Igual”… I hope they would only broadcast outside of America.. that guy Celle 13 sucks and disgusting but Nelly is damn gorguos there… Check it out people
este video é simplesmente ótimo
It’s disgusting how she’s sold out to mainstream hip hop and feeding a sexual image, encouraging girls to be slutty and guys to think we should be sluts. It’s good to experiment with different styles, but it’s so obvious she cares more about the money than the music, emotion, and message that she used to.
And the whole point we are giving negative comments is because we DO know her true style, and we wonder where it has gone. We’ve been with her from the start, not just hopped on the bandwagon ’cause this song has a catchy tune and she’s a better dancer. Her style was much different, much more original, much more from-the-heart than what we hear now - rather, what everyone’s doing now. She’s just transformed into something that will give her money and fame. And the problem is that she’s trying to get so far, by any means possible, that she’s lost sight of herself.
Someday, when she’s gotten all the damn green she wants, I hope she can rediscover the passion in music and disregard the dollar signs.
DOROTHY- calm down far out. Do you realise that selling songs is her career? If she can better her career why wouldn’t she? I’ve been a fan of Nelly’s since I’m Like a Bird, I’ve been there all the way too. You should be happy that she’s doing so well. Of course her old albums were more artistic- Folklore was awesome but it got nowhere. Let her experiment, let her feel more sexy, more adventurous. A lot has changed since she first came out; she’s a mother now, do you know how much that changes you as a person? I’m proud of her.
hey
I absolutely agree with whoa_karen!
I already heard that not everybody is happy about Loose, but I think it’s very cool. I love this album!
She has changed, that’s right, but that’s quite normal, I think. Everybody’s changing. And her first album Whoa Nelly! was published in 2002, that’s a long time!
In my opinion, it’s even bad not to change in a way. that would mean you don’t develope.
And we all can hear that Nelly developed. As a person but also as musician.
I also am very proud of her!!!
PS: Sorry for my english, I’m german
Good stuff Lena - your English seems fine to me
Does anyone know who the male dancer is in the promiscuous & maneater video is? He’s also in Christina Aguilera’s “Ain’t No Other Man” video.
the one that looks kinda lyk justin timberlake? (i kno ur not talkin about him but they kinda look alyk)
It is Justin Timberlake. He was shooting Sexy Back in the same studio.
I am still on the first square. What format is that Hi-Quality video? I download and nothing is playing it.
I love the new Nelly, i think she’s really SEXY!!! pls i have the same problem with willstay, i downloaded the video but it didnt play, PLEASE HELP!
I know Justin Timberlake is dancing in the Promiscuous video, but who is the other dancer with the hat on. He’s also in the Maneater video (he’s bald), and in the Christina Aguilera “Ain’t No Other Man” video.
whoa, Nellys performance at the mtv ema 06 yesterday was great (except the tattoos)
hot hot hot!!!
I’m really suprised and not in a positive way about Nelly Furtado. Where did her good music go? She sold her soul to the devil or what? I used to think wow an artist in the pop world thats good… now shes just a Britney brunette… I hope she goes back to what she used to do!
Damn… Oh well, another good mainstream artist has fallen off. Much like the Black Eyed Peas did when they hired that Fergie, NF has resorted to generic R&B. I admit, I’m pretty anti what’s in the charts, but NF I had alot of respect for. The “Turn off the light” and “Radio” tunes were really, really catchy and didn’t conform with what music was “hot” at the time.
I’d like to see the Nelly Furtado who collaborated with J5 back please!!!
She used to be cool collabos with J5 and other interesting collabs too
She had her own little flavour kinda R&B a smidge of hip hop ,urban bohemian even, almost a little leftfield still with a little pop thrown in—–
u know she wouldn’t be out of place in a slam poetry nigh or a protest—-infact i’m having difficulty defining what she used be like and that was a good sign!
she appeared to have a soul then…b4 she was different
I agree with old fan said:
‘Much like the Black Eyed Peas did when they hired that Fergie, NF has resorted to generic R&B.’
Its a real shame
I’m all for evolving and changing but change for the better girl not for the worst….dont follow Black Eyed Peas tactics!!
In the words of O’Jays ‘For the love of money ….dollar bills y’all!!!!!’
Have u heard her wack new song ‘All Good Things Come To An End’ she couldn’t of put it better.
now highschool girls are attracted to being loose who knows whats to come. stop sticking up for her, she done what she done out of greed.
Nelly Furtado’s promiscuos is song of the year according to the beat 94.5.
OMG guys she is so not a sell out. I mean she is trying a new thing with this dance pop style, i mean that is what music is about, if you cant sell records by being original and creative then you should put on a mini skirt and do the Britney Spears thing duh…. Yes! now I can turn on the radio and hear Nelly all day… wait, is that nelly? its hard tell but its like she singing to me! she is so cool.
Did anyone ever find out who the lead male dancer (aka. justin look a like) was?
this music video is the best!!!!!!! i love nelly futado!!!!!!!!!!
this music video is the best!! i love nelly fortado!!!!!!
hey dance!!!that justin look a like was really justin!!!
i love this song its so sexy
Olá Nelly! As tuas músicas são fantásticas… Obrigada por seres assim… Muitos Beijinhos desta tua fã de Portugal…
who do you think you are Nortel? re-releasing an album with 3 additional tracks when most people have already bought the original one? is that not ripping off your fan a bit for a little too much commercial gain? fans don’t want seven copies of the same album in every colour of the rainbow, contrary to popular belief these days…did I hear someone say free downloads?
just a thought ~
ripoff… when you’re done re-releasing the same album in 3 years let me know and ill burn you a copy of the one I made free and it didnt take 3 iterations… get it right the first time and be fair to the paying fans… who do you think you are Nortel ?
