    I’m totally down with Beyoncé never speaking again. 🐝🐝🐝

  2. jeanpierre says:

    Great performance. Can’t wait for the next album and tour!

    • Jib says:

      Will she be as talented as she was when she fell down the stairs and kept “singing”!?! Wink, wink.,

      • Tiffany :) says:

        When she fell down the stairs, she gained a lot of respect from me! In fact, it showed me that she was singing live. That had to have hurt so bad (she ATE the stairs with her face), and yet she got up and kept going.

    • Val says:

      I LOVE her performances! I’d always pay to see Bey.

      Don’t care if she has anything to say outside of that (though it does make her seem somewhat pretentious).

    Sry, couldn’t resist. 😛

    Queen Bey killed it as usual
    Bow down to the best singer/dancer in the industry today

    Serious question, but how old to people think Beyonce actually is? I feel like she looks early to mid 30’s, so it’s not as if she’s saying she’s 25. Just curious because i see a lot about her lying about her age but do people really think that’s a 45 year old woman up there?

    • jeanpierre says:

      No, they’re just hating 😉

    • Wilma says:

      I think this is one conspiracy theory about Beyonce that does not fly. There’s too much footage that we can date of her as a young girl out there. She’s about my age and she looks about my age, especially with make up, without make up she looks younger.

      • Josefa says:

        Yeah, I thought the whole thing was hilarious at first but now it’s really getting annoying. Why is it so hard to believe she’s 34? I know several people my age who could easily pass as my parents or my mid-school siblings. You don’t have to be 34 to look 34.

    • MonicaQ says:

      Seriously they are so hating. She’s maaaaaybe a year off but black women don’t age the same. I got pulled over for being truant yesterday and I’m 30. People in public confuse my grandma for my mother and me for a freshmen in college.

    • Wellsie says:

      Totally agree – she doesn’t look older than her age.

      I’m more interested in the body shaping element to her bodysuits and hose (is that what they are called?). I find it fascinating. But maybe I am just a perv.

    • Samtha says:

      I agree. I don’t like her at all, but her age seems right, and there are plenty of videos from when she was younger,

    • word says:

      Her age has been proven many times. Why would her teacher’s lie? There are lots of people who have gone to school with her and can confirm her age. She looks really really young when she is bare faced…she could pass for 20 without make-up.

    • Otaku Fairy says:

      I wonder how old people think she really is? To me, she doesn’t look any older than Britney, Pink, and Christina (actually, Christina looks like she’s in her 40’s most of the time and Beyoncé looks younger than her) and all these women are around the same age, 33-36. To me Beyoncé doesn’t look like she’s in her 40’s or in her 20’s. If she were claiming to be 26, then I’d be like, “Yep, somebody’s lying!”

  6. jo says:

    It’s better for her not to say a word bc she is incapable of substantial and in depth thoughts about social issues that could have affected her if she weren’t part of the one percent. She doesn’t want to say anything because she really has no opinions and has to mimic some kind of depth like she does when taking credit for songs she never wrote. She is a good entertainer but so basic at the same time.

    • Jules says:

      Other than standing around trying to emphasize her thigh gap with a fan blowing her extensions, what does she have? Minimal talent at best.

      • Nev says:

        WORD. So overhyped.
        Look at tours of Madonna and Janet and JLO. The diversity of themes and dance. Real dancing. Different styles of dance. Not only stripper moves. Even when they are sexual, it was never pure stripper. This is performance.

      • Dhavynia says:

        I wish I could click a million like stars in regards to your comment

      • Cynthia says:

        I’m sorry if the only thing you choose to notice about Bey is her thigh gap and wind machine cos she does soo much more than that. Soo soo much more. This is a woman that gave 7 mil to build houses for the homeless in houston and no news site gave a damn. The kind of dance she does is mostly ones that she can only do wearing those outfits and have you seen her perform without the fans? She sweats a lot because she is very active so yeah she needs it.
        Her entire life since her childhood is well documented for her to be lying about her age, people. Here’s a woman who does her job and minds her business and is still very much hated by those who claim “she never had anything to say anyway”.
        As for jlo being more diverse, thats a lie. I can’t speak on others cos I haven’t seen a Janet Jackson show in my life. Beyoncé sings live and she has the voice/talent to back it up (3.6 Octaves tho) so its totally on you if you choose to focus on her body. An actress goes topless, its for her job but when Beyoncé does, …
        As a young black girl, I’m inspired by her. The truth is that Beyoncé is a black woman who’s doing way too well and you all have just refused to deal

      • Artemis says:

        @Nev

        Although all those 3 are amazing performers, their vocal skills are weak as hell. Same with Britney. Beyoncé doesn’t dance like her either because she can actually sing and does so with the aid of a backing track. She doesn’t have a weakness, she can sing and dance simultaneously (seriously, all the other women lack vocal control due to weak breathing techniques, this is why they do one thing at a time!) and she gives a lot of personality and energy towards her audience.

        The one thing I will point out is that her choreo tends to stay the same (at this point, I know the moves despite not being a dancer lmao).

      • mimif says:

        I’m not a fan of most of her current music, but Bey (obviously) can sing and is a tremendously talented performer. I admire her hustle, and I think it’s safe to say she’s thee hardest working woman in the game.
        That said, she’s not above reproach. Her PR game is…man it’s just weak AF. Dare I call it basic. I’m all for her being an inspiring role model but she lost me with the bullshit vegan mic drop.
        I dunno, the level of control she’s attempting to exert over her image as of late seems entirely disingenuous to me.

      • Vampi says:

        Well, to be fair, all she promotes on Social media is he thigh gap and photoshopped pics of herself, and never does a real interview, so ya can’t blame peeps for noticing that she is all about the superficial and that’s all. I mean…it’s more than controlling her image…it’s all about a fake persona, and that’s fine. Just don’t expect those with a brain to not notice it’s all smoke and mirrors (literally). Sad thing is that she COULD be awesome just as she is, but….oh well. Sorry.she wants it that way so…she’s got it. And people are gonna roll eyes at it.

  7. Happy21 says:

    UGH, I just read something about Terry Richardson doing a photo shoot for a mag with Kylie Jenner 🙁

    • Babalon says:

      Oh, dear. That’s sure to be revolting.

    • mimif says:

      The sorceress known as paola (see comment 10. below) just made me look at them. One word: Ew.

    • word says:

      Yeah it’s pretty gross. Firstly in the pics you can clearly see her boob job (she can’t say it’s from a bra since she isn’t wearing one). Secondly, the pic of her holding a stuffed tiger on her crotch area…disgusting ! I accidentally saw the pics while scrolling through TMZ…they shouldn’t do that to people…not right.

    • paola says:

      Honestly those pics look like they belong to a hooker’s portfolio

      • Vampi says:

        OMG! I don’t wanna see. I just KNEW! We ALL knew Kylie was gonna do gross shizz once she turned 18…but TERRY? Really???? Omg shut it down.shut the internet down. Kylie and Terry. I feel sick. Honestly. So sick ima stay off ALL gossip sites for a few weeks just so I don’t have to see a headline about that. Serious. But….when I check back in a few weeks it will probably say in a headline, “Kylie gets peed on by Tyga and his crew in new HOT video”…ugh..ugh… no!!! No! I’m outta here….wow.

  8. MonicaQ says:

    The Marching Band thing killed me because it’s just bandos missing their sets and made the Enterprise look like a pnis. It’s the first show of the year and the rest of their show was pretty much park and blow (THAT’S WHAT IT’S CALLED NO IRONY) because they haven’t gotten the rest of the drill down yet.

  9. JenB says:

    It drives me nuts that people try to say she’s lying about being 34. It’s just so bogus. Other things (pillow baby) I can understand. But she’s always been born in ’81 and her childhood career absolutely confirms it.

  10. paola says:

    She does look great but those boots look exceptionally cheap.

  11. iheartgossip says:

    She’s veered to far over into Trashdashian territory, for me. Much too thirsty.

  12. word says:

    There is no need to pick on Jen Garner like that. Maybe she’s busy working and taking care of her kids and doesn’t have the time a Kardashian/Jenner does to get all dolled up to go to the damn grocery store.

    • Mitchie says:

      Exactly, if anyone has been through a divorce where you and your children have been betrayed, you have to deal with the aftermath, plus make sure your children are healthy…mentally and emotionally. After my divorce, I’m sure I looked like a bag lady, due to the father using the kids welfare to keep me in line. It’s so not right to judge at this period. She unlike the rest of us, had to deal with it in front of the world.

    • Birdix says:

      Agreed. Or maybe she just doesn’t care. or maybe she’s trying to set an example for her children that there are other things to focus on in life besides hair and clothes and groomed eyebrows. My eyebrows (and frankly the rest of me) look terrible today and it’s so hot I can’t be bothered.

      • Mitchie says:

        Yes Birdix! I’m busy raising two special needs children on my own. The last thing I’m thinking about is if I’m attractive.

  13. Mitchie says:

    Ok, I’m sorry I must have missed something, but why is she not talking. If it’s “just because”, then we should treat her in kind and not listen…to anything she does. Total disrespect to her fans. They pay for her lifestyle. If it’s due to some injustice in the world that is not being heard and acknowledged, then good for her.

    • jeanpierre says:

      Well as a fan I may say I’m not bothered by the non-talking thing. I don’t care for interviews. She gaves us 2 back-to-back tours, and of course I payed for it and I got my life both times. I went to the ms carter show with my sister and on the run in paris with my fiance. Great moments. I mean that’s what fans expect from her. Tours, albums, videos, behind the scenes, photoshoots… She did a documentary for her fans. She interacts very much onstage. We’re okay.

      • Mitchie says:

        Your a fan, thank you for giving me some insight. I’m not a fan (no disrespect), but you voiced your opinion.

        My question still stands though.
