Beyonce photos: unflattering or no, once they're on the internet, they are on the internet. Beyonce's publicist contacted BuzzFeed after reporter Lauren Yapalater published a post highlighting the singer's "fiercest" moments from her Super Bowl halftime performance. <br /><br />FOR MORE NEXT MEDIA ANIMATION, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=NMAWorldEdition <br />Facebook http://www.facebook.com/NMAtv<br />Twitter @nmatv http://www.twitter.com/nmatv<br />Tumblr http://nmatv.tumblr.com<br />Google+ http://gplus.to/NMAtv<br />Web http://www.nma.tv <br /><br />The PR flak complained the pictures were "unflattering" and asked for them to be replaced with others.<br /><br />Buzzfeed, of course, declined. Instead, the site ran a second post citing the publicist's email and drawing attention to the seven photos the PR flak wanted to remove.<br /><br />It's called the Streisand effect. Attempting to suppress information has the opposite effect of causing information to spread further. Maybe now we should be referring to it as the Beyonce effect?
