When Bey returns to the Grammy Stage in 2027 in the same way Tina Turner entered the Diva Special in 1999, lives will be changed

2027? Let that happen this year

I'd die for a live debut of the lead single to open the Grammys. Specially if it's something as classic sounding and solid as The Best.

I can't wait to hear her "I wanna be your lover" inspired song

I dont care if shed do it to launch her new song or if its the performance to honour the Trilogy in 2027, but I know social media would GAG if Bey did sth similar to Tina and shows of her most relatable self being the ultimate superstar she is

Oh act iii, the career-defining masterpiece (5th consecutive one, mind you) that you're about to be

STARGIRL is a little too on the nose imo, but I do quite like the look and sound of LONESTAR

I always watch this performance when I want to envision what ACT III will serve or sound like

Surprise performance of the new single as it drops would be smart, especially considering she's not performed in forever at awards!

a surprise performance of new music at the grammys… y'all never learn

She should kickstart the STARGIRL era via a one-off streaming performance. "A Night with Beyonce" vibes on Netflix or something.

Y'all, the most she's going to do is change her aesthetics and ppl will know she's ready, then she'll randomly drop the single(s) & disappear, drop the album & disappear, announce the tour and disappear. She's not performing, because she's banking the visuals. The only thing that can sway her plan is a big check and creative control. She has a system and we will suffer till things kick off.

like haven't we been through this enough these past years ?

she'll plop on a fried black wig, post a couple oddly edited pics, show up to the MET and maybe some flop event for julez/tina/solange/grandpa the same week (if she's feeling generous), post magazine outtakes on her website, release the album and go back to hibernation until she tours the following year

wake up already, award show performances/festivals/copacabana/music videos/collabs we've actually asked for etc aren't happening

To know that she already has the singles picked out makes me crazy....

I'm reading an old vibe magazine from 2002 during the Austin power Natural curly hair and she was mentioning how her debut album is going to be a soul album and that she doesn't want it to be typical R&B but more on the Aretha Franklin and James brown vibe. It was going to be a retro funk soul album also with live instruments. It pisses me off how her original debut album was scrapped due to the potential that it may flop and not make her a superstar. White Artist can do black genres and have millions of people buying their records but never the same for a black artist. The label made the right decision to tell Beyonce to rework on the album because she wouldn't have reached superstar status with soul music sadly. I just hate how audiences make soul music mainstream when non blacks do it but not the actual black musician. I'm sorry you guys for being a debby downer but I'm annoyed about that.

Not performing anywhere but her own tours is strategic (and smart). Keeping the demand through exclusivity. An appearance would be cute though.

I really do think the visuals will close this trilogy tbh. I know people feel like she is too big for a tiny desk but I want to hear her new voice on a lot of her past R&B songs. Like Bey has a such a full rich voice now. Also after act 3 I need an R&b soul album.

strategic and smart

and extremely greedy

yeah but she felt the pressure to do Beyoncé Bowl to launch her tour.

she's not above promotion completely but only does it for a fat check.

Songs that you expected to be amazing live but never quite hit?

• Bodyguard

• Partition

• That's Why You're Beautiful (weirdly I just expect this to be so epic live and its always quite subdued but think it could be amped up

• XO

• All Night (she should perform the version she did at the Tidal event)

• Virgo's Groove - that god damn shell

• Daughter

• Tyrant

  I guess in general I don't like when the staging constricts her. Tyrant, Daughter, Partition, Virgo's Groove. All forced to stand in one spot or whatever. She's at her best when she's free to move and have fun.

I think its hard to predict the name of ACT III. If the original names and order for ACT I and ACT II were BEYINCE and RENAISSANCE, then they were swapped and BEYINCE became Cowboy Carter. There's nothing thematic, or linguistic that connects them.

CC felt like her most personal, and Rennie her least. I wonder how she'll pitch ACT III? Rennie was about us, reclaiming our joy, freedom, pride and ACT II was B reconciling her heritage with how she's perceived and accepted as a pop start. What's the vibe for ACT III?

Feel like it makes sense for her to drop 3 tracks at once given that CC got 2

The Beyoncé Bowl is also very much framed in terms of exclusivity though. It's the winning strategy for her.

Bey being at the Met Gala in May is so out of left field. I'm curious to see what type of style will she have for act 3. I wonder if she is going to go for big hair. I do feel a hair color change though oddly enough.
