Irreplaceable being the stadium hit I always knew it would be

I'm almost baffled at how staunch the media and blogs have been in trying to push this "not sold out" narrative. Like, there are legit people attending for the express purpose of catching an "EMPTi Tour" moment on camera. 
 

That cumulative tour gross figure is going to be such a massive '**** you'.

I expected some celebs galore at the LA stops, are they waiting for the last show?

I would freak the **** out stuck in that robot suit

new avi to reminisce about the red suit

 

Oh lord, thank god, she definitely won't be doing a Sphere residency no more.

You already know Yvette's just patiently waiting with her finger on the boxscore button once all 5 Sofi shows are completed. Once they see that 9-figure gross, they'll scurry back into their ratholes for good

The lights and color scheme here sre so good. I don't think y'all talk about these enough. I'm obsessed, it's aesthetically so pleasing to look at

100%. It's not just the lighting effects but also what a pleasant atmosphere the lights create, like the color scheme and the contrasts. I wish I had a better language to talk about this but it's so good to look at like you mentioned. 

I know exactly what you mean. The best way I can describe the feeling it exudes is serene. It's like that last light of golden hour when the suns almost gone down and everything is like a surreal pink and orange. And when you pair that with that flawless way she bridged Sweet Honey into Pure/Honey 

 

It reminds me a bit of the backdrop they used for SUMMER and Part II (On the Run) during OTRII

and they're filling seats

I was looking at the stars on the tour page again. Interesting that there's a repeating pattern of them every 8 dates, but sometimes she doubles up on the same pic before continuing the pattern. That has to mean something.

 

im not buying the setlist thing yet but i cant imagine she wouldn't just repeat the pattern instead of doubling them up in places, but maybe it's just aesthetically so the images don't repeat the same way in every row

I think Haunted has a chance to get close to 1M if they made an edit version without Ghost.

they're just placed on a diagonal stripe pattern. I'm still team "it ain't that deep" lol

 

Kinda insane to send a cease and desist over that, and to then make it so public.  This screams retribution for refusing to do the sphere.

I never bought into the whole Sphere stuff anyway. Given the massive scope of the CCT, why would she have held herself back by playing in such a small venue? And in one city at that, when she can gross 10x more with fewer shows?

 

 

IShe (rightfully) said I'm bigger than the Sphere and they got so mad 😭 Kinda interesting though that their cease and desist says she's never been to the venue with sources saying a while back she toured the venue with Jay. So that was all false.

Well if he thinks this will lead to negative press for Beyoncé, he's dumb. I think it could actually lead to positive press for her, considering how stupid and petty it is

f them 

 

 

I hope they find a way around the cease and desist. Other landmarks were included as well - feels like BS. At some point artistic expression has to be protected. 

Beyoncé could easily claim it's a parody... it's literally her as a giant picking it up.. fair use baby, I'm sure her lawyers already made sure it's legally sound.
