What are the updates on Atlanta's dates? Were the first two sold out? Are the remaining Atlanta dates looking promising?  

first 3 have very few available you could already consider them sold out. 4th night has a lot left but will surely sell out once the tour arrives. I'm not fully convinced by the rotating setlist but if it were to transpire, it'd be a smart way to get multiple attendance's out of the bigger fans wanting to see the different variations. The remaining tickets would be snapped up quick smart without the need for the last minute GP sales.

 

 

 

Hm...

She definitely thought she was going to get decapitated onstage.

Any of you guys get the Real Live Boogie VIP package for SoFi and have recommendations for when to get to stadium? Please let know haha

 

Going to 4 London shows and need to figure out if I should take annual leave/paid time off for it 

 

 

Her to her crew backstage after that moment:

 

cease & desist for one of the best interludes is wild.

Which one was it again?

What a show last night.

 

 

We might have lost an amazing outfit and might have lost one interlude but I think I enjoyed night 2 more than night 1. Fortunately we found a YouTube stream which kept going nonstop and didn't end like how ALL of the IG lives did. So we were able to watch the full show uninterrupted. Unfortunately though we don't know if we would even get the same stream for Sunday's show which I plan to watch of course (I am off on the Monday ).

 

And she also sang Irreplaceable which is one of my favorites along with If I Were a Boy  And what's more is that she did the ALBUM versions. I was getting so sick and tired of all the interpolations IIWAB was getting which made me grow tired of her performing that song live. But after last night...  

I also thought when she had the crowd sing the chorus that she said "Ya'll sound so bad"  But what she actually said was "It hurt so bad" when they were singing the chorus

 

And one more thing: ALL of the Beyhive that actually came out and watched night 2 with all of us. I didn't expect anyone at all to watch the second show because in the beginning of the show it was only a couple of us and the thread was kind of dead. But as the night progressed more people showed up and honestly thank you all so much for that. We didn't have that for Renaissance night 2 right? It made the experience even more enjoyable and it was hilarious when @Rotunda told me to shut the hell up and be patient with regards to the songs I thought she dropped

 

I really hope we can do this for the rest of the tour if we all can. That would be great.

 

And lol @ everyone tagging @giRLbye. Leave her alone!

I keep seeing people talking about her scaling back choreography: to me this is about the same if not more than Renaissance? Especially the second act from America Has A Problem onwards - that act is full of heavy choreography.

 

And it's a long show - anything over 2 hours is very long for a pop concert and this is quite a bit above that - it's about 2 hours 35 minutes I think. She's gotta reserve energy. She's still giving energetic performances 2 hours into the show which is very impressive.

 

I love the additions from last night - excellent decisions to do something different and do the hits! My only suggestion would be to add a country flare to both Single Ladies and Irreplaceable - I personally think it would be a missed opportunity otherwise because adding country elements to those songs (as they already sound a little country as is) would drive home what seems to be one of the key messages of this era (that artists should be able to transcend limits within genres).

That youtube stream was LEGENDARY

Unfortunately both nights from that channel have been removed.

Oh, she definitely let the WHOLE team have it last night. Her ducking and dodging like bullets are flying.

Rumi was just so happy to be on stage with her mother. She wanted more hugs from her mom. Poor baby. 

We should be really so very grateful that Bey has integrity, keeps her cool and wants to share her art, cause if I was her, you would never see me again with this media takedown that is happening. I'd be off on an island. Like its BIZARRE how many outlets literally WANT to take her down, embarrass her etc. And for what exactly? Its not like she Katy Perry embarrassing herself. Shes great at her craft, never involved in scandals, a good mother to her children, a hard worker, and yet all this hate and the lies constantly

 

She outsings the entire industry at this very moment and you only hear "yeah but she dances less" and then you compare her dancing in CCT at 43 after having given birthday to 3(!) human beings with single Taylor and its immediately "yeah but Taylor isn't a dancer". But Taylor also doesn't sing well, so why is she praised? For what exactly? And Bey is literally crucified for nothing. And you can play this game with pretty much any other star.

I really commend Bey and sing her the highest praises cause id be half as good a person as she is.

It's always coming from a place of discomfort, seeing how revered she is as a black woman and an apologetic one at that. You will never see them trying to humble the Barbados girl bc she just isn't held to the same standard. 

 

I think she may be the most talked about MPG when it comes to fake narratives. From framing her as the Destiny's Child villain, dress folding baby bump, skin bleaching accusations, to Illuminati and TikTok Diddy conspiracies. They will make up literally anything to take her down, I remember they used to alter her live vocals to make her purposefuly sound bad on Youtube.  

 

Guys, you see how they talk about her. How dare she think she's so perfect and better than anyone else. They still can't swallow that she's putting their talentless, rhythmless faves to shame while being a Black woman making unapologetically Black art and being flawless at it. They latch on to everything. They claimed she was covering for Diddy 

Ironically Beyonce probably truly is the humblest pop star off stage.  Taylor and Gaga are also super famous, and people talk about how nice they are.

 

They're all kind and gracious, but who gets the evil narrative? The Black woman.

It's obvious she's one of the kindest, humblest celebrities behind the scenes. Not to get too parasocial but you can tell by her sweet smile and how happy she seems onstage. 

 

The irony is the reason she has limited contact with the media and works so hard to be flawless is because she knows people are ready to pounce on everything to drag her down.

It's definitely more than Rennie, and I LOVE IT!!! 
 

She's preserving herself which is all I want from her. She's doing amazing and tbh, I love it!

She's the most talked about MPG when it comes to ANYONE! She's just as polarizing as Madonna was, but she's much nicer, lmaoooo!!!

 

But one thing about her and Madonna is that they both were unapologetically THEM. And that's why no matter what, they will always be seen as the epitome of Pop and Celebria. It doesn't matter who comes. They will be the standard. 

I think it doesn't help that Beyoncé is INSANNEELYYY beautiful. So even her just being gorgeous, anything "human" she does will be always seen as out of proportion. On top of her being the best at what she does and her passing her predecessors. I see why people can't stand but to hate what they don't get! 

Beyonce in "Break My Soul (Remix)" told the world to redirect all the hate to her because she can take it. She is used to it from DC4. I don't think it bothers her all that much because she always wins in the end, and it makes her bigger. All the "low ticket sales" talk just brought conversation to the tour which blew everyone away opening night and now they are continuing to fly off the shelf! She is going to gross $100M+ from the 5 LA dates alone and everyone will be on mute as always.

 

Standards are immensely high for her because she is just the best and she knows and she just keeps getting better, and using the hate as fuel (not that she needs it to continue bettering herself).
