Here is the Beyonce Ego video. The video is in support of the fifth single from the 10-time Grammy Award winning superstar’s third studio album, I Am…Sasha Fierce.

The music video had its world premiere on May 21, 2009 on the official Beyonce Web site where it can still be seen: BeyonceOnline

The Beyonce Ego video was co-directed by Beyoncé and Frank Gatson Jr and choreographed by Sheryl Murakami. It is a black and white video featuring Beyonce and two back up dancers. Beyonce discussed in a prior interview the choreography’s inspiration.

“My goal for [the 'Ego' video] is simplicity.” She then added, “I saw this old tape of Bob Fosse’s wife [Gwen Verdon], and I used that as inspiration. I thought in this world, with all the technology and everything that’s going on, to strip everything down – great idea. So I kind of did the same thing, but glossy and black, for ‘Ego’.”
