Kh-Loud Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) Her uncle who raised her and her sister was gay; he was their nanny and best friend. Her husband’s mother is literally a lesbian. She may love money but I’m sure her intention is genuine She loves the gays and only a hateful gay would make a thread like this!

La Reina Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 When did Beyoncé ever call herself queer this era, or imply that she was? She merely paid homage to the queer community with this album. The only "queerbaiting" thing she's done that I can think of is the "Yoncé" music video. Renaissance is not. ATRL's fave Britney and Madonna kiss was actual queerbaiting, along with the entire "Me Against the Music" video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She still had queer representation at that time. And? Homosexuality was still far from being socially acceptable to the same degree. There's an argument for some of those people being pioneers, but it isn't what's bring argued in this thread. If you're going to try and come for someone, try and think about the words you use a little better. Beyoncè in the conversation of being a piooner for the representation of queer people is the most ridicolous thing i ever read. People saying everything about her is just revisionist propaganda could be right if someone even thinks to make this a point of discussion Beyoncè's brand was build to be appealing to straight women, nothing queer about it... the fact some lgbtq people find appealing every strong personality in entertainment doesn't make her art remotely queer, at least in the first phase of her career.

She was also shocked by Madonna and Britney kiss in 2003. It's only when Gaga appeared around 2008 that she start saying "yeah i take inspiration from lbgtq people around me, my hair dresser i a lesbian..." This is categorically false.

And she actually had people from the community on the album. Aside from that she’s explicitly stated that this album is almost a memoir for her Uncle Johnny.

Artists have been dedicating their their work to the loved ones who died since the beginning of the times ? "Tears in Heaven" for example. She decided to dedicate this album to her gay uncle.

kimberly Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 some of you white 🚬's come on here not knowing a damn thing and talk so sure of yourselves, it's absurd. first of all, maybe google what "queer baiting" is before making a thread because Beyoncé has been with the same man for two whole decades (probably since before some of you were born). then, check the album credits. how many queer people worked on Harry's House? or ANY of Harry's music? could probably count with one hand. RENAISSANCE centers queer history as its thesis, from the Uncle Johnny dedication in the first page of the physical copies, to all of the queer/trans collaborators that worked on the project (who would have won Grammys had RENAISSANCE taken AOTY), to the BREAK MY SOUL remix where Beyoncé shouts out notable ballroom houses. it's dedicated to queer and more specifically Black queer culture. lastly, Beyoncé has included queer people in her projects long before your faves were doing free shows to book a record deal. use the internet if you have a burning question about it.

bad guy Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Is this a real question? One pretends his sexuality is anything other than straight to make himself seem more interesting than he actually is, while the other is simply paying homage. Comparing Renaissance to one of the most disingenuous/PR’d Mick Jagger wannabe is crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovett Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 10 minutes ago, chosensparkles said: kinda serving "I'm making things up" It's been talked about frequently on this forum. From her including a drag queen in "Bills, Bills, Bills", to her black gay dancers in "Freakum Dress", or performing "Single Ladies" live with two male dancers or gay couples in "All Night". She has featured queer performers in her art for her entire career. Just because you can't be bothered to listen or do a tiny bit of research doesn't mean people are making it up.
