Video Phone (song)

"Video Phone" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé and released on September 22, 2009, as the eighth single from her third studio album I Am... Sasha Fierce (2008). Written by Beyoncé, Shondrae Crawford, Angela Beyincé and Sean Garrett, and produced by Beyoncé, Bangladesh and Garrett, the crunk song consists of simple lyrics and hidden innuendos referring to putting up a sexy display to be recorded on a video phone. The extended remix, featuring Lady Gaga, was produced by Vybe Chyle and released on November 17. Soon after, Gaga featured Beyoncé on her song "Telephone".

"Video Phone" received generally mixed reviews from music critics. Some noted that Gaga's featured appearance on the song's remix failed to add anything to the tune. The original version charted in the lower regions of the charts in Australia, Spain, and the United Kingdom, while the remix peaked at number 65 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and atop the US Dance Club Songs chart.

The accompanying music video filmed for the remix of "Video Phone" portrayed Beyoncé and Gaga in a number of costumes, brandishing colorful guns towards men and paying homage to the film Reservoir Dogs (1992) and pin-up legend Bettie Page. It received mixed feedback from critics, who felt it was uninteresting and did not present anything new. However, they complimented the costumes and the cinematic homage of the video. The video went on to win the BET Award for Video of the Year.
