…here we go…

2nd!

wow…top 10!

Okay, so what.

The ups and downs of entertainment.

NEXT!

Damn I see Kelly all up in Papa Knowles in this pic…Bey was an adorable lil girl.

ALL THESE RUMORS, WHERE’S THE FACTS, THE TRUTH? THIS IS THE BEST YOU CAN COME UP WITH ON A MONDAY MORNING?

Let’s face it…HE is the reason why she’s has an iconic status, but he does need to let go now and let her live her life…but from a parent’s perspective…one never stops being a parent…

she having a hard time saleing tickets for $20.00 let alone 200-400!!!

top ten!

Top 20
Finally

I highly doubt it..

Damn! you see all those trophies in the background? Beyonce was not playing when it came down to her talent and success.

This girl has so many haters.

He can worry about his other daughter now, she needs a little help with her career…oh, I’m talking about Kelly

I am the ONE!

she having a hard time saleing tickets for $20.00 let alone 200-400!!!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

LMAOROTH!!!!!

I wouldn’t pay a nickel…

The Knowles are crazy anyway. I have never seen a pic of Matthew and Jay-z??
I think Matthew knows that this is just a business arrangment, at least for the Knowles family!!

Maury Povich:

“Matthew Knowles you ARE the father” !!!

Tina Knowles:

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah” !!!

Solange:

“Wellllllllllllll. Who’s the “ho” now” ?

lol … leeches

Sounds like Bey is dissapointed with the record sales. I think she wanted to sell a lot more and faster. She may be the next one to give him the boot.

LET’S START HATING ON MATHEW……….. Well, if the story is true, will that end the “puppet” rumors. Probably not. One of the things I noticed in my own personal life with my friends, family & especially coworkers, the people who don’t like Mathew and accuse him of being a stage dad are the ones who never spent 1 day with their daddy. Stop hating on folks with daddys.

Hello? She’s 27 and i think she wants to perform at every damn award show and not her management.

Matthew should have teached his daughter to be not fake and lie in every interview!!

ho sit down!!!

Is that his wife or his daughter. They are the example of a grown up Jon Bonet!

Beyonce is so pretty in that pic. This girl was destined for greatness.

Ha! Po suga been rockin that same tired pose since she was a kid.

What a spoiled little girl!!

lol @ Buttercup…

Really? NOW she wants him out her life? If she said 10 years ago I’d be surprised. But damn, she’s like 5 years from managing her own kids in Las Vegas..I hope this isn’t true for the sake of her looking like she’s concerned.

Beyonce’s preformances have been pretty boring to say the least.

yicadeeeeee

Whats her Pops doing with a young Bow Wow in that pic???

@Soul Ese
LOL!!! She does look like Bow Wow when he was younger! LOL!!!

if she had all that hair then, why does she wear so many lace front wigs now?

@jb_1030
Mama Knowles ruined their hair! She had gorgeous hair.
LaTavia and Farrar (orignal members of DC) said she dyed and colored their hair until it began to fall out!

Why am I not surprised that she is a pageant girl? Those children are started off very young to be singleminded, self-involved and highly competitive with other girls.

If she is trying to assert control over her career (which, I feel, is not going to happen given all the corporate strings attached to her limbs), it’s only because of her competitive drive; she doesn’t want to fall behind anyone else.

She’s a robot programmed by her parents to compete. That’s all she’ll ever do.

Hey Peeps. It’s time for Papa Knowles to fall back: he’s made B a mega-superstar. He can chill out now or at least help Kelly & Solange out.

WHO CARES?????!!!!!!!

NEXT!

Please without Mama Knowles and SOlange Bey wouldnt be here and half of the hit records Bey has would have never been written. So leeches..I think not

@Divine

You said it. She hasn’t grown in her music since whe came out. All her music has an adolescence in it. And although that is the name of the game. She should take a lesson from Madge (madonna) and be daring- keep reinventing herself. It gets to a point where you have the money and the fame so you can pretty much do what you want to do. But it is obvious that making money is still a priority.

Bey won’t get writers credit until she appreciates the music and not the money. Writing takes talent, experience and strong imagination.

Let see:
Can’t act- but to her credit is a good performer and entertainer

Experiences – singing on stage- still bad at acting

Strong Imagination – Hmmm..house of deron…need I say more.

OK WHERE ARE THE FACTS… FIRST OF ALL BEYONCE WAS GOING TO DO A ALL DANCE ALBUM… BUT AFTER SHE PLAYED ETTA JAMES THINGS WENT A NEW WAY..BUT SHE SAID HER NEXT ALBUM WILL BE A WORLDWIDE DANCE RECORD SOMETHING ON THE LINES OF “SWEET DREAMS” AND “RADIO”… I MEAN BEYONCE IS IN CONRTOL OF HER CAREER, HER DAD IS A DAMN GOOD MANGER , CUZ I KNOW FOR A FACT HALF OF PPL ON HERE PARNETS WOULDNOT HAVE DONE WHAT BEYONCE PARNETS DID FOR HER, NO ONE NEVER SAID BEYONCE WAS GOING TO BE A HAS “HUGE” HAS SHE IS THEY REALLY HAD TO JUMP ON FAITH, CUZ THEY REALLY COULD’VE LOST EVERYTHING… SOME OF UR PARNETS WOULD NOT HAVE TAKING THAT CHANCE.. AND I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT!!!!! LIE IF U WANT TO BUT I KNOW…

It is about time she makes her own decisions.

She was a cute little girl.

@lets talk truth – beyonce has already won a writers guild award for most of the songs she wrote for Destiny’s child…I think I saw that about 2 years ago.

She needs to respectful replace him in the way that Janet and Michael replaced Pappa Joe. There comes a time when you have to take control of your life and career. She has never been an independent woman. She has gone from fathers management to husbands management. She needs to stand on her own two feet like her contemporaries. Matthew needs to prove himself with other acts and Bey needs to grow as a woman.

@Let’s talk truth…

FIRST OF ALL BEYONCE IS THE FIRST BLACK FEMALE TO EVER WIN A ASACP AWARD FOR SONGWRITER OF THE YEAR.THANK U… AND MADONNA… ON THAT NOTE WHAT SONGS LIKE “MUSIC” MAKES THE PEOPLE COME TOGETHER LOL!!! GIVE ME A BREAK MADONNA MAKES POP MUSIC JUST LIKE BEYONCE AND THE SONG SHE HAD WITH JUSTIN A 50 YEAR WOMEN SINGING ABOUT SAVING THE WORLD LOL…AM NOT TAKING NOTHING AWAY FROM MADONNA TO SAY “daring- keep reinventing herself”

YEA SHE DID THAT IN THE 80′S AND 90′S BUT NOT NO MORE HONEY….

POP SONGS ARE THAT DEEP LIKE R&B

MADONNA MAKES MUSIC FOR THE MONEY TRUST… WHY DO U THINK SHE WORKING WITH HOTT YOUNG ARTIST…LOL

Beyonce’s dad is a good stand up father… he was there from the beginning… what they had differences in opinons.. thats minor in the grand scheme of things and he’s dont nothing but be supportive of his family through the thick and thin…Stop hating on Black Love…

@Fan Of Bee
Uhhh most of the people are saying exactly what you are saying. So why did you resort to talking about what folks parents would do? You have no idea what someone parents would do. You have no facts…

Beyonce DOES NOT control her career. She should. But she doesn’t and I’m not sure she has the ability. But she should be given the chance try.

If she puts out another album of dance music, mark my words, it will not do well.
The trend is having more substance to music now.
It’s time for her to grow up music wise. This kiddie stuff is played.

@TrifeLife
You win the “Obligatory ‘Haters’ Comment Award”
There is always one winner! LOL!!

Never see people of other races dogging their successful folks and to attack a Father for looking out for his OWN child.
Beyonce is successful, pretty and rich. Her Parents helped her make it to the top and in return they go paid.

Funny how when men are successful and their parents help them get to where they are, non of this hate applies…Tiger Woods for example.
Beyonce being pretty, successful and married dsn’t inspire me to hate becuase I have a LIFE, LMAO!

@Me No Likey
to me its funny how people chose to see opinions as dogging her.
I think everyone has said she wouldn’t be Beyonce without Matthew Knowles.
But you took that as dogging her or ‘hating’ on her.. It think people are ‘hate searching’.
Hate Searching – Purposefully looking for haters when there are none.

@ BoreYawnSay:
You sound DUMB as HELL. Forbes and Fortune release the earnings of people who are successful in every field, entertainers, business people and royalty. Every smart business person knows to get paid from more than ONE source- DUH!
And no matter how B earned her money it is forever and ever above what you and most people will ever see in their life and the rest of your families life. Don’t be mad just work overtime and you will be ok, LOL

@ Divine- please read for understanding before rebutting points I have made.

@TrifeLife
You win the “Obligatory ‘Haters’ Comment Award”
There is always one winner! LOL!!

I’m just amazed at the word “obligatory” being used on here and spelled correctly at that!

OMG…….Y’ALL NEED TO STOP HATING….

Someone called her a pagent child just from the pic. Damn, some of you are so young or so fatherless, that you don’t know what it’s like to get dressed up on holidays and go to church or a family dinner. I know this generation wears jeans to Christmas dinner but there was a time when black folks acted like family.

@BoreYawnSay

BEYONCE HAS SOLD MORE THEN BRITS ALBUM AND SHE MADE MORE THEN BRIT MADE IN 2008 . AND BEYONCE “HALO” IS DOING BETTER ON THE CHARTS THEN BRIT SINGLE LOL SO WHAT ARE U TALKING ABOUT LOL

I betcha these same women calling Bey’s marriage a business arrangement can’t get one of their baby daddy to pay child support let alone marry.

@BoreYawnSay

FOR SOMEONE THAT SAYS BEYONCE IS NO ONE U SURE DID WRITE ALOT FOR A NOBODY LMFAO!!! U KNOW HOW MUCH THE GIRL MADE… LOL

@ 6

I know what you mean when you talk about seeling outthe Aloha stadium. I have never, eva, eva seen an Rand B artist sell out any stadium let alone the Aloha and that thing is ginormous.

When country or rock artists that are icon go on tour, they can seel out these types of venues in a matter of hours. If and when Beyonce can begin to seel out venues like these, I might spend the money for the tickets.

@SOMER

HELLO!!! THANK YOU!!!!! THATS WHY THEY ARE MAD!!!! TELL ME ABOUT IT…

@Be

Are you serious – we are talking Destiny Child. As a soloist has she won any awards?

Fan Of Bee

@BoreYawnSay

FOR SOMEONE THAT SAYS BEYONCE IS NO ONE U SURE DID WRITE ALOT FOR A NOBODY LMFAO!!! U KNOW HOW MUCH THE GIRL MADE… LOL

Everyone knows how much she made. It is public record. Just liek we all know now that the Obamas made $2.6 million. It is public record. Anyone can find out that aabout anyone.

@SOMER
OMG…….Y’ALL NEED TO STOP HATING….

—————————————————————–
I don’t know if she was a “Pageant Kid”, but she was in most of the pageants in Texas.
She was well known in the pageant circuits because she was the most talented and won a lot of the talent shows in the area. Her mom will tell you that.
And they talked about it in the ‘True Hollywood Story” LOL!
Being in Pageants is not a bad thing in my opinion.
Especially if you have shy kids and kids with self esteem issues.
Problem is parents can go too far and make it a bad thing.

@CHERYL
I don’t know what pageants you are talking about! LOL!
But MOST Pageants I have been involved with give 3ft and taller trophies…
I’ve NEVER seen the small trophies! LOL! Parents would go BEZERK! LOL!

But anyway, if she won them all, good for her.

This seems like a marketing agenda to hype her tour and sell more tickets. These people lie so much that nothing that comes from their camp is believable or valuable. What a glaring turnoff – NEXT.

It’s after 12 noon and only 90 comments…its officially over ma-ma- drop a seed for Jay bey. Its a wrap.

Why is it that we get mad because she’s doing too much??? That’s crazy!! But seriously she has made a name for herself so everyone wants a part of that. Daddy Knowles did what he had to to get her out there and secure her future. Can you really be made that your dad helped you make 80 mill in one year. Come on now….But I get it that the people are a little tired of Bey being crammed down their throats so you grow a dislike for them. But hell Daddy did what he was suppose to do for Bey. Now Solo…that’s a different story all together. My inside sources have said that they really thought Bey would be a big enough name to help out lil sis in exposure and sales but they didn’t expect the Bey backlash she has received…so it kind of backfired with no promotion all. Bey’s album sold what it did sale by name only and loyal fans….It may be a little while before she records another r&b album.

A couple of things. One Beyonce had natuaral long hair when she was a little girl so why does she insist on wearing ugly weaves. Two, although Sasha Fierce CD is doing well and her dad is too involved in her life he had a pretty good idea in wanting her to record a jazz CD, that would have been pretty cool and different.

#1 hater said Bey made her 80 mil from endorsements not CD or concert ticket sells. Putting down how she made 80 mil is just stupid. Whoever you are a fan of, I betcha they didn’t make half that unless your are talking bout her husband.

Bey needs to retire.. Take some English and Speech classes.

LOL, it’s sooo funny how NOBODY wants to point out the fact that she looks NOTHING like the Beyonce we all know in that pic. Of course she’s grown up but most of us resemble ourselves at age 12 or 13 don’t we? She doesn’t very much at all. People, she’s always been pretty (obviously) but she has been surgically enhanced just like many other “performers”. I’ve got the before and after pictures and you can see that she’s had her lips thinned and her nose narrowed. But her fans will go to their graves defending her and saying “she was born that way or you’re just jealous”. She was born pretty but she’s had some help to become beautiful. Why get mad about someone pointing that out? I actually think she was much prettier before she had the surgery to make her look less “ethnic” I’m almost offended that she and/or her parents would buy into that crap that the record labels and handlers put out there about people being more “marketable” by looking less ethnic…what does that mean exactly?

Anyway…check out the pics for yourselves: copy and paste into your browser.

http://www.celebrityplasticpics.com/beyonce.htm

What do you think? Did she have surgery? Does she better now or then?

She started taking control during the production of the B’Day album. She recorded it in 2 weeks without her father knowing. I think that her wanting separation is due to her getting older, and her relationship with Jay-Z, which her father does not like.

@wenzel
you are a nut for that pic…mike and e.t….a match made in hollyweird!!! lol

Are we ASSuming those trophies belong to Beyonce? I swear, some of you on here are ridiculous. Beyonce is a “GODDESS”? ROFL.

Come back to Earth.

Do you know where this pic was taken? Do you even know if this was in her house?? Do you know what the occasion is? Do you know what those trophies are for, let alone who they belong to? A whole family lived in that house, yet you Beyonce obsessives are so quick to say they’re all hers. Unless you live(d) in that particular house at that time, GTFO.

Two, although Sasha Fierce CD is doing well and her dad is too involved in her life he had a pretty good idea in wanting her to record a jazz CD, that would have been pretty cool and different.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I remember when Queen latifah did a jazz album, or whatever it was, it wasn’t rap. But anyway she gained a whole new fan base, which led the the role in Chicago for which she was nominated for an Oscar.

Bey needs to change it up before she gts lost in the crowd.

Anybody notice how it seems that Ms.B was the child always in the spotlight? Poor Solange, always in the shadow of big sis.

@Fan Of Bee

Beyonce’s album has been out longer, so its only natural for her to be ahead of Britney in sales. Still when you factor in Worldwide sales, they both are pretty close. And Britney has only had 3 singles, as apose to Beyonce who has had 4 and promotes like crazy. Britney hasn’t promoted since December. Still, they’re both doing good.

And regarding how much money they made, Britney didn’t do much of all last year. But with her tour and endorsement deals shes been getting lately, she’ll be sure to rank in millions by next year.

No hate, Im a fan of both.

She was a pretty little girl – I’m sure she placed high

bRITS CD WAS DROPPED ALL IN THE SAME MONTH AS BEYONCE’ NOVEMBER 18 BRITNEY NOVEMBER 28 ON WEEK

I would’nt completely dismiss Mr. Knowles, he has helped her get to where she is now. It’s good to have input from someone that she can trust and basically have her best interest at heart. Someone that’s not going to be a “yes” person to her, because of who she is. But, at the end of the day it is her decision to make about anything concerning her career.

Actually B making a jazz cd would just another notch in her ever-so growing empire…And I believe it would get excellent reviews.

correction… would be another notch.. lol

am i the only one who see that dis n***a look just like kelly in that pic?!

Beyonce was a such an adorable baby and little girl. She’s still very pretty. Bey, you’re a grown, married woman now able to make your own decisions. More power to ya, baby.

She’s not the first celeb to want to break away from the apron strings and she won’t be the last.

I would love to hear her doing jazz.

That pic is adorable.

Beyonce doing Jazz would be a great change, but I don’t know how well that would go over.
She has a certain type of fan base. And I think Jazz music is a little high brow for them.

As a Jazz fan it take creativity and quick thinking. If her regular pop music is any indication think she lacks it.

BUT if she does ANYTHING different, I will be glad about it.

@Bored @ work
Yeah poor Solange. Beyonce talked about Solange being jealous and breaking her trophies! LOL!
I wonder why or if the parent put that kind of time and effort into Solange?
Did she just not take to it or like it, or what?

Also, I remember when they were talking about Solange getting into the business and Beyonce said she didn’t want her to, because she didn’t want her to have to deal with everything she had to deal with. At the same time Beyonce mentioned about having to go to therapy because she felt she missed out on her childhood. I remember thinking….NOT AGAIN….
I’m sure she missed out on stuff…But Cry me a river, heffa! LOL!!!

omgomgomg sooooooo were do i begin?

@I love Beyonce so so so so much
Are you 12 years old?
I feel much dumber after reading that post! LOL! —>

oh ya i almost 4got click my link 2 c my site it is alllllllllllllll about BEYONCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

… about the jazz cd, would rather a jazz than country cd. I don’t see why Bey could’nt do jazz if she wanted to, hey that might be a whole different fan base to tap into.

@Ara
the Jazz community has attitude about Beyonce and pop music in general.
She is like Anti-”the spirit of Jazz”.
That’s why most people listen to Jazz.

It will have to appeal to her current fan base, because if she does a Jazz album, jazz people will think it’s a joke.

BUT she may be able to do. I don’t begrudge anyone the opportunity to try.
May be surprised

I think Daddy Knowles needs to work on Solange’s trainwreck of a career. She’s the one that desperately needs help.

and she said her parent didn pimp her out like the jacksons parents? is this is why DEREON is hanging by a thread? im glad she is standing up to matthew.

@trife life…perfect name.. Trifling. I only believe in ONE God/Goddess and the name is NOT Beyonce.

Are you all that DENSE, obviously, this is nothing but PR. Their people have realized that people basically hate Matthew and hate that by buying anything of hers, he gets a cut. That man ain’t going nowhere, this is just some flim flam sham propoganda so people will start digging in their pockets again.

And I aint buying it. I will not support anyone that turns around and BOASTS and BRAGS about all of their FANS money as if she could have it without them.

The chick won’t see a cent from me, and its good that she isn’t waiting on it.

She has enough money, music is FREE and I be damn if I make someon a billionaire so they can turn around and throw it in my face.

Matthew didn’t write DIVA, Beyonce ‘supposedly’ did so whatever, trying to use DADDY as the scapegoat, she is just as greedy and ruthless as he is. The apple don’t fall far from the true.

That whole family has major TUDE and show no RESPECT to others, yet expect to be respected. GTFOH…ALL OF YOU KNOWLES…your voice ain’t that special, nor face, nor booty bounce, that I can’t live without it.

Ok if she doesn’t do a jazz cd, what about a neo-soul cd? They have a totally different fan base. Beyonce is good and at the top, I will admit that. But she is not at the top of the game. If she cannot sell out arenas like Madonna, then she is not in that league. If she can’t sell out an arena like Aerosmith or U2 she is not at the top of the game. Not hating, just making a statement.

beyonce did pageants or something?

this was something she’s never mentioned in her 150,000 interviews. ol vague ass.

@ LawdhavMercythisshitis real

You’re wrong. Beyonce’s album dropped in November, Britney’s dropped in December.

uR RIGHT IT WAS LEAKED IN nOVEMBER

Matthew Knowles aka Joe Jackson….interesting.

They were coloring her hair when she was that young….that is horrible. That is why she does not have any hair left.

@Amina

A lot of artists are still selling out arenas. The big acts anyway. Madonna, Britney, U2 etc.

I think her dad has a great idea. She needs to switch it up, yodeling halo, and leaotard single ladies is boring me now, although it was fun at first, it all fades into the same category and freakem dress and gettin bodied. Hes just trying to help her diversify, but for some reason she has too much money to think.

bey gotta a new “daddy” running her shit. oh well who gives a ……….

go bey! you tell that donkey who’s the horse!

mADGE AND U2 BRUCE …. TINA TURNER OLDER ACTS WHOSE FAN BASE RANGE FROM YOUNG TO OLD TO OLDER … UR SO FUNNY U CANT TAKE BEY

Believe me all the trophies belong to her. She must have won a milion beauty pageants and singing competitions.It’s Inborn.

[...] venues such as Dodger’s Stadium in Los Angeles, Soldier Field in Chicago, and Giants Stadium in New Jersey and charge $200 – $400 a ticket. Most music industry insiders agree that tickets sales would have [...]

@jb_1030
Exactly! Beyonce is not at the level of U2, Aerosmith, Madonna,selling out Arenas. Even Michael Jackson selling out Arenas last month in 1 hour flat!

She hasn’t even been around along to establish that level.
Can you think of which of her songs will be classics 20 years from now?
Or Which Album will be listed as the Greatest of All Time?

It’s fine to LOVE Beyonce and believe she is great, but REALITY CHECK….
She’s not the BEST… I will give you the best Female out right now. She is doing her thing and doing better than most in the concert area. But that’s not saying much when you compare her to the higher tier entertainers.

in time Bey will get hers but she is still young compared to legends she has done nothing that others havent but in time…..

@ LawdhavMercythisshitis real

I’m not coming for Beyonce,I haven’t said one bad thing about her. I clearly stated in my first post that I’m a fan of hers but I’m also a fan of Britneys. I like both. Is there something wrong with liking both?

Britney is playing in arenas and selling them out left, right and center. Billboard.com have already released the box office sales for her tour and she has already made over 23 million in just 13 shows. Tell me how she has fallen off? Beyonce’s opening night crowd was only 8,000. Has she fallen off? Britney has had her troubles in the past but there is no way you can deny that her career is back on track and she is highly successful.

@LawdhavMercythisshitis real
You know she will be one of those who come back years from now and people will appreciate her.
But I really don’t think she will ever be at the their level.
What they have and what she doesn’t have is Uniqueness.

She is a copy of what those legends are/were doing at their prime.
And most of them were SELL OUT ARENAS at their prime and the height of their careers.
She is at her height or prime and she isn’t selling out arenas
All those legends are LEGENDS because they were the first of their kind.
She is in the Brittany Spears, J-Lo, Usher, Justin Timberlake level…
Great but will not be LEGENDS.

______________________________________________
Given I am not a Beyonce fan because I only like one of the many songs she has put out, but there are many people that do. No, she has not been out as long as Michael, Madonna, U2 and Aerosmith, but she has been out for a while.
Right now, she may not have a song that will be a classis 20 years from now, but with all the fame she has acquired, she won’t be forgotten either. Who has forgotten Cher or Diana Ross who were at the height of the game in the 60′s and 70′s. Where in the world can you go and people have not heard about her? So that puts her in the higher tier entertainers category.

@Justtoomuch
I agree. And that was kinda the point I made in the post after.
She will be great and she will apprecaited for her works years from now.
Cher and Diana Ross are perfect comparisons….They will not be forgotten.
But they ain’t selling out Arenas either.

And I wouldn’t consider Cher and Diana Ross higher tier. But I digress.

*************************************************

I was not saying that she is not at the top or near the top. I was saying that she is not at the level of those groups who can seel out arenas. Does anyone belive that she can sell otu a Stadium like Areosmith or the Rollin Stones? No she can’t. And to think tht she can if a dream. I am not talking abotu 20 years from now. I amtalking right now. The Stones, the Grateful Dead (when still touring), Aerosmith were selling out STADIUMS in their prime. Hell they still do it now. Does she have a cult of fans like the Dead HEads that follow the group around and go from city to city? I doubt it. She is good, i will give her that. But Cher was selling out concerts back in the 80′s when she reinvented herself withthe song, If I could Turn back time. Beyonce needs to change it up and bring something new. If she wants to be in the league with Michael and Madonna, she needs to step up her game. Madonna is 50 and still selling out arenas! She reinvented herself to keep up with the times.

@JB
Thank You!
Van Halen and Madonna grossed $200 million for their world tours in 07 and 08, and Beyonce fans want to brag about her $50 million for Bday thinking she is beating everyone. Beyonce gets her money from endorsing products and touring thats it, this is why she is trying to do 110 cities.
Beyonce sold out shows are low capacity arenas and stage size has to be calculated because that takes up thousands of seats. Beyonce will be in Las Vegas for a week, why is she not performing at the MGM which holds 15k people or the Mandalay Bay which holds 20k…..she is performing at the Wynn Hotel and that only holds a capacity of 1200 people.

Beyonce is going to end up being one of those people that she sang about in her song Welcome to Hollywood on her BDay CD. eventually people are going to get tired of her and her career is going to die slowly but surely…

Beyonce’s career is already falling the drain, its her delusional satanist fans who are keeping her afloat….hence only selling 4 million copies.
Beyonce only wants the accolades and recognition, she doesnt want to change the face of music and grow or introduce us to something new, she just wants to be praised for doing others work.

lmao at the delusional haters on this site.

beyonce has sold over 130 million records and she made 80 million from her tour/album/endorsements last year.

and FYI her eurporean dates are SOLD OUT so get your facts straight before you hate. LMAO at you dumb haters using ‘blogs’ as your sources. When its a FACT that Beyonce sells out arenas.

What other black female artist of this generation has sold over 130 million records/ made history both in a group and solo/ won over 150 awards/ been on every magazine cover including vogue/ performed for the 1st black president inauguration/ performed at the oscars 5 times/ the list goes on and on and on.

FACT: BEYONCE IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL, MOST POPULAR, AND RICHEST BLACK FEMALE ARTIST OF THIS GENERATION PERIOD!

So you’re delusional if you say she will never be on madonna or michael level. because you dont know shyt about 20 years from now, people are already calling her a queen and a legend and the girl aint but 27 years old.

So stfu because yall cant predict the future.

I think Beyonce is already iconic!!

WOW if she recorded a Jazz cd I might actually start to like her…then again. I don’t think she could write a jazz song

@i see why haters are mad

OF THIS GENERATION…is the key…
Again that’s not saying much….

lmao at ‘only a 4 million copies’

when people like rihanna, ciara, brandy, jennifer hudson, jasmine sullivan, etc can barely sell 1 million.

and ROTFLMAO at you haters having to compare Beyonce to 50 year old white people in order to prove your point. LMAO

Damn Beyonce is so successful that her haters have to compare her to white people success, since no black artist is anywhere near as successful as her.

what about janet not even being able to do half a tour and she’s a so called legend?

what about alicia keys tour? does anybody even talk about her tour or even care for that matter?

what jennifer hudson tour? does anybody give a crap about her tour. if she’s such a huge oscar winner and blah blah why aint she selling 4 million copies or selling out arenas?

let’s see ya’ll compared beyonce to britney(who she outsold on this album), madonna(who is like double her age) and other white people who are not even in her genre.

and ya’ll have the nerve to talk about beyonce’s intelligence when you haters are obviously the dumb ones. ROTFLMAO too funny!!!

Clip in shirley temple curls on a child? But taht’s how those pagent kids do it I guess.

@ divine

i dont consider you a hater unlike some people on here but please explain why no one is comparing beyonce to people in her genre?

why compare her to madonna? wtf?

@ Goodness.
That’s her REAL hair. What are u talking about? She has always had long hair as a child.

I see why haters mad I really hope you’re Solange playing on the computer.

^^^^and i really hope you are etta james on the computer otherwise stfu.

Oh and amen at i see why haters r mad!

Aight nah, Usher did the same thing to his momma and look at where he is now? Betta take a page out of his book and keep Daddy Knowles on the team…lol

Cici,

SO no more long hair as an adult? Please! I

That’s not her hair in that pic, I thought it was at first but nope!

okay how do you know that’s not her real hair? I know for a fact that she has always had long shoulder length hair.

I’m not about to argue with you over something as stupid as hair. Have a nice day.

We have many black people in commercials etc. Why JUST be happy for Beyonce? Gtfoh! I’m happy for Alicia Keys, how’s that?!

Why do these stans just not grow up already?

Shoulder length hair is long. Unless you’re bald.

How do I know that’s not her hair, the same way you know it is.

Shoulder length hair is NOT long. Unless you’re bald.

*who cant sing” (Rihanna)

Thanks, your name says it all.

PS, Weave wearers: Your hair texture should be the same from root to tip. Otherwise we all know what’s what!

Alicia Keys is the highest selling black female solo artist, and overall second, of the decade.

Usher is the highest selling black solo artist of this decade.

Those two aren’t over exposed and hawking goods.

@ Goodness…not saying you’re wrong but what are the numbers??

blah blah blah, hater hater hater……Ghetto people, please use more words.

@Obvious,

Aicia and Usher were honored by Billboard with those distinctions. Billboard’s word on the matter is good enough for me. Specific numbers can be obtained by anyone who cares enough to track them down, I don’t. I’m not gonna treat this like an RFP.

@Thanks

And how are you bigging up Rihanna with comments like she can’t sing? Damn like I said you are a big hater. I just think you are jealous. You said Beyonce is a stranger yet you wrote all about her and Jay Z. They are strangers yet you know more about them then they probably know about themselves. Its time for people like you to start getting shut down like every negative thing you say is the bible and anything positive somebody has to say about somebody is considered to be a crazy fan. Not everybody is negative and jealous. Like you said she aint paying yo bills so why you care so much to hate?

The word “hater” displays lack of vocabulary and insight.

You don’t like something I do? Then you’re a HATER!!!

@Thanks

Why I need to use more words to talk about somebody that’s not paying yoUR bills? I thought these people were strangers. So once again why waste your time?

Thanks for proving how ignorant you are. Being that im a hater why are you responding, are you starved for attention? Its not this serious.

@Goodness

And if you do like something you’re considered a crazy fan, ghetto fan. God don’t like ugly so its better to be positive than negative. If you don’t like it that much why click on the thread?

Music World Entertainment employs people to scan blogs and if anything negative is said about their camp, they are to start drama and call others haters. This is classic marketing strategies that Matthew has executed, then they spam about Beyonce, her tours, how much she made and so on. You can tell who are the employees because they pick one person to attack who is telling the most facts and they start harassing them just like YM…..

@Thanks

How am I ghetto when you are the one that spend your time hating on celebrities on a blog? Money does not make you happy. Its alright for people to brag about how much money she has. I kno you aint referring to me cuz I have not. Not everyone wants all the money in the world. Some people are very content. More money, more problems. Those people are happy and content with themselves. I don’t need a check from her. I’m still happy for her and her success. Cuz like I said she worked hard. People that have done nothing valuable in life is the ones to come hard at.

No you’re a crazy fan for over zealously defending a stranger.What dummy brags about another person’s fortunes?

When ppl say they don’t like a particular celebrity that I happen to like, you know what I say? Nothing. Sometimes I’ll ask them to elaborate. Maybe I’ll learn something from them.

“God don’t like ugly”? Uglier things going on the world than not enjoying simple azz lyrics. He can go not like some vicious dictator or pediphile.

Okay…stop hating MS. B! She’s doing her thing. You guys didn’t hate on Madonna when she pimped everybody so let the sista shine. Lets stop tearing each other down and focus on building each other up. All of us has talents so my why not use them. Coool!

Meow! To the cat fat that’s going on. Everyone has made some good points, however, we need to respect every artist and especially the black artist. You don’t have to like everything that they put out are show up on the big screen with. Just don’t buy it or go see it. What you are doing is demeaning our culture. We are made up of various skin colors, ethnic backgrounds, and GOD given talents. Again lets build our people up and stop with all the negative stuff about them unless it’s deserving. I don’t Beyonce’ has offended anyone. Wait until she does that and then you can make your comments. Okay enough is enough!

She’s on her way out anyway. She is overrated and soon she’ll disappear.

Remember when Matthew used to go around talking about Jay-Z like sht? Saying he wasn’t good enough for Bey? That wasn’t very nice of him. You stans should’ve told him to be more positive. Lol

I’m out!

Jazz??? Neo-Soul??? Please don’t insult such artist like Musiq, India, raheem, and the countless others that have so much soul in their pinky’s that bey can’t touch that genre.

She pull that off I will call bey the best (actress- I almost threw up in my mouth saying bey and actress in the same statement) I have ever seen.

Bey fans…get over it!! You all remain blind to the fact that she is limited to her acting skills and singing skills.

Now..I have heard some rare stuff from bey that has given me a ray of hope on an alternative singing genre but if she is not already practicing on that craft she better come out with another 15 yr old bootilicious song.

And get over yourselves…tall trophies being deal!

* big deal.

FALL BACK PAPA KNOWLES….JAY GOT THIS!!!

And as a parent, I can applaud the avenue Matthew Knowles took (as well as the risks) in making his daughter what she is today–which is a very successful entertainer.

Could any of you say you would take the risk and quit your 6, 5, or 4 figure a year job to focus on your child’s career?

Be honest!!!!!

***cricket***

MY POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will say/type this–I love my daughter with every fiber of my being and her success and happiness means more than life to me yet, I’m not too sure about quitting my job to focus on her career!!

Me lurves her but at the same time, I’ll continue kickin’ in for her college fund!

like wise don’t matter $$$$$$$$$$$

and FYI her eurporean dates are SOLD OUT so get your facts straight before you hate. LMAO at you dumb haters using ‘blogs’ as your sources. When its a FACT that Beyonce sells out arenas.
*************************************************
It is a fact that she has not sold out her international tour. Check ticket master or the international ticket websites. As of two weeks ago she only sold out Croatia. And I am sure that is not a 25,000 person venue like Rhianna is doing in Dubai. She is good, but please take her off the pedastal.

BTW–Her tour is headed this way…the 27th of June, I think. Anyway, I was checking out her ticket prices when I was looking for J-Hud’s the other week. Not NOWHERE did I see her prices anywhere NEAR $200.00!!!

I’m always impressed with her hard work and ethics but I seriously doubt that there are too may that would be willing to shell out 200 ones…

….especially in this economy!!!

Shit–ELTON John, Prince nor, Luther Vandross’ tickets were nowhere near that much and I had floor seats to each of these events!!!

Can we say Icons to the above mentioned?

Alicia Keys’ tickets were $90.00 (including the surcharges) and I’d glady pay that again. She gave a very good show.

J-Hud–by the time you added all the extra charges to hers, they were $74.00 but worth every penny!!!

I would hate to shell out so much of my hard earned dollars for a Beyonce concert and walk away not feeling like I got my money’s worth!!!

CUTE PIC AWW ANYWAY DO U BEY LOL.

ANYONE ON AT THIS RANDOM HOUR?

@DIVA

I KNOW YOU HAD A BLAST A THE JHUD CONCERT GIRL! DID YOU TAKE YOUR LITTLE DIVA IN THE MAKING MYKEL WITH YOU?

@ 1TruDiva w/the PlatinumVocals!!!™. The Jennifer Hudson concert was off the MEATRACK!!!!

Yes they do. If you go on Perez or any other white blogs, they stay hating on Britney. The comments Beyonce gets aint nothing compared to the hate Brit gets lol. Thats what happens though with big named stars. They always get hated on the most.

@ Sessy (Fake???) I don’t know but anywho–

No. I didn’t take Mykel with me. She went to a prearranged sleepover which worked out fine for me. (If you know what I mean! Lol)

@ NYC1–

Thanks for the tidbit ’cause I always wondered that.

I guess when you get that high up, the haterz come in all colors!

New Leak Alert!!! The first single off Fabolous’s upcoming album “Loso’s Way” – “It’s My Time” (Prod By The Runners). Click on my name (Mileka) to listen/download!!!

@BOREYAWNSAY
you are really funny and quite creative with words! LOL
Well I dont see the hype about that sond DIVa, lacked creativity and boring.
beyonce achieved alot and should be grateful with her success. I wish her all the best, she has had some good hits in music and on TV still pushing for her OSCAR but lots of what you mentioned is true. You are funny!!

Hello…
How ya all doin today, reckon’ a good morning to all u folks.
Just am a wonderin’….finally a black man taking care of his offspringin and all, seems proup papa in pict and u all blacks just hatin on urselves
I see that many you all will never be satisfied with ur all selves
Tip of the hat

i see kelly alllllllllllllllll over mathew in this picture………the rumors must be true !!!

Solange is NOT riding Beyonce’s train. Her CD is good. You should listen to it.

I would like to know if her French venues are sold out because she is performing at Zenith and Bercy but not Olympia. Zenith sits approx 7,200 people and African musicians always perform to sold out crowds, people have to be sent away. I respect her work ethic but sold out venues do not mean anything if unknown musicians sell out at the same venues. Thank you for your time and please support African music on youtube: Werrason, Koffi Olomide, Fally Ipupa,and the rest. Thank you my American friends.

Bey’s US tour kickoff in Seattle was a flop! The tickets were too high and the turnout reflected that.

let him do that…and he his wife and solange will be the only ones there…

Just cuz some people too lazy to work and afford her show doesn’t mean it was a flop! She deserves respect cuz she’s so powerful and has the most talent. Lot of people hatin on her cause she beautiful and spends more on a pair of heels than people can make in months. It’s not her fault she better than everyone. You haters and all the imitators are tiny bugs that she will simply step on while walking to her limo! Beyonce is GOD!

[...] is finally putting her foot down when it comes to her dad meddling in her business: Beyonce Knowles is finally telling her manager and father, Mathew Knowles, to back off. Mathew has [...]
