YOUTUBE: Pregnant Ladies

I don't think anyone will disagree that Beyoncé's chart-dominating single "Single Ladies" has been over-played and parodied enough since it debuted over a year and a half ago. However, this reworking of the hit is great. It's called Pregnant Ladies and, believe it or not, features the dancing and singing of a very pregnant lady. The sight of her in a black leotard recreating Beyoncé's famous choreography is totally amusing, but the real creativity comes from the lyrics, which are all about the perils of having a bun in the oven. I'm not pregnant (knock on wood) but have plenty of preggo friends who can barely touch their toes and have to pee every ten minutes, so I can kind of sympathize; I also love how the lady in this video totally owns what she's doing (especially at around 2:00 when a couple teenage boys are lingering in the background wondering how crazy she might actually be).
