If you think a woman that loves fame would be hiding as much as Bey is then you may be the delusional one.

Did you just start stanning Beyoncé? Since when doesn’t Mother love fame? She goes silent one era and y’all think she turned into ******* Sade or Tracy Chapman. Yes she loves fame, always has, always will. If she’s hiding so much, which is a first then something is either terribly wrong, or she’s building anticipation for the tour. Be for real.

  • It was the best concert of my life, bar none. Idc!    It was extraordinary, it was ineffable.  I knew I loved it based on the videos but I... Hey I don't know.    Best moment

    I know this award is a joke but the point is, she has cemented herself in history with the likes of Whitney and Lauryn. And on top of that she won an award for a genre that completely ridiculed and ex

Fans dont NEED videos and when have fans not received them?  Visuals are coming.  Chill out until then.

 

And performing and being in public is obviously not what Bey wants so FANS should accept it.

 

Ive criticized Beyonce a lot for her reclusiveness but when you think about it, she deserves to choose how she wants to approach her career.  Esp now.  

Girl literally BYE.

 

Visuals are part of the BEYONCE FAN experience and them coming out a YEAR after the era is basically dead and gone takes away from it. At least build excitement prior to the tour starting. And I didn't say anything about performing in public, just that LIVE performing is what she wanted to be known as. 

 

She shows up to the grammys who treat her like crap because she still wants that recognition, she shows up to the OSCARS because she still wants the recognition. Stop trying to gaslight people into thinking she's only reclusive for her career.

No it doesn't. The stage isn't even done.

It doesn’t matter. You can see the structure and it clearly has a proscenium arch. The same as Dubai.

I don’t blame her tho. If I were 5+ albums in, a known performer with over 10 years in the industry … what else is there left for me to prove? I’d just drop my album, hope for a hit to define the era, then tour (thats where the real $$$ comes from anyway).

Seems like Bey doesnt wanna be THEE celebrity anymore.  She wants to release her music and perform.  And make a few bucks with side businesses.  And when those things fail because shes not Ms Best Friend SM; thats her wallet not ours.

What I mean by thee celeb she is the most polarizing.. I really can’t compare it any other female other than Madonna but its worse for Bey because she’s a black female

So? Her band could be under that for all you know.

Baby I been a Beyonce fan since DC.  She has always called herself reserved, always stated she was going to step back at some point, has always been private.  Read the quotes from earlier in this thread.  Straight from the horses mouth.

 

This isnt some act to appear aloof.  Beyonce doesnt want it.

It definitely does. There is a proscenium arch in both designs.

 

If your stage has a proscenium, that means you’re trying to put emphasis on the center. You can’t do much in the center.
 

I don’t think this will be a dance heavy tour. 

I looked at the new pics compared and omg I see it too nnn :deadbanana4:

 

I mean, I don't mind if it's not a dance heavy tour. Those intense dance breaks were great, they had their moment and definitely fit with the Formation concept (&Homecoming) but I will not be missing them if they're gone. Actually I'd much prefer simpler but very effective routines ala Naughty Girl & Blow this time around.

 

But if I see her go up on that stage in a kitten heel next week I'm gonna lose it :deadbanana4:

An acting career. I honestly want her to pursue it for real. Not as a side project. Just straight up acting.

She is doing things the way she wants and yall are mad.  Accept it.

If she doesn’t want it then she would retire boo. Beyoncé releases consistently.

Broadway!  Its right there.  Sis is a top performer with top vocals.  I hope it happens.

She pretty much has, from THAT part.  I said she likes the music and performing and she still doing it.

She recorded a whole unreleased song during the DC days about how she couldnt take it anymore and Ms Tina talked about how depressed she was.  NO ONE is immune to the amount of scrutiny she receives.

But I don’t think she’s hiding she’s 41 and a mother of course her career will take a backseat to that and she’s been giving herself to the world since she was 15.. your priorities change when those things come into play.. then shes about to embark on her longest tour in forever 

“She doesn’t want the fame that’s why there’s no visuals.”

 

Meanwhile we got Tiffany’s ads, Ivy Park drops, teaser, remixes, world tour, dubai performance. Be for real

No, she doesnt want the fame thats why shes not getting papped or at the Met or doing late night.


The visuals arent released because she is on HER timetable.

 

I mean it's apparent she's been working, pretty hard, but there is just weird radio silence.  I mean we know she's filmed visuals (that were hyped, and then nothing), we know she's been rehearsing, and planning the tour. 

 

BUT I can't imagine this is how everything was supposed to play out.  They were just going to stop after BMS?  What if Cuff It hadn't gone viral?  Like what was the plan?

like she’s not spending 12 hour days prepping for her tour & other business ventures. Be fr.

Again and when she has free time she chooses to spin it with her family..

Being on HER timetable doesn’t mean she doesn’t want the fame. 
 

All this shows is it doesn’t take much for her to maintain the fame.

you got all dat from one single element of the stage? :deadbanana2: also she can't dance in the center? :deadbanana4:

 

RWT stage has a whole circular runway, a B stage in the middle of Club Renaissance section, please be serious.

 

Dubai stage was constructed to fit the space & she didn't bring her own dancers. Her same stage setup was what Swedish House Mafia used after her. Not a whole lot of wiggle room there. 

Also, didn’t Angie say something about strategy before BMS came out? What was the strategy for the album rollout?:rip:

 

Something definitely did go wrong at the last minute and it threw off the entire era

She has probably been busy planning the tour since album drop. with a tour of this scale, 9 months isn’t a lot. And it seems to be a really ambitious project. 
 

I think in her head she just wanted to

1. Release the music and

2. Go on tour, cause that’s where the big money is and she gets to interact with her fans

 

I think the rest was always kinda TBA and she isn’t stressing it (clearly :deadbanana:)
