Beyonce Awards Washington DC Extra Special “RENAISSANCE” Tour Title

by

Even with a few minor speedbumps – such as crew members forgetting to put Beyonce’s ladder in place, or getting a bit too handsy while helping her down – the RENAISSANCE World Tour has been going well so far. For her most recent North American stop, the mother of three performed for Kamala Harris and her husband. The Vice President and her partner joined tens of thousands of others in Washington, DC on Sunday. Not only did Bey give her audience yet another stellar performance, but she also dished out $100K to pay for the local transit to run an hour later due to the bad weather patrons were forced to endure on their way home.

Besides her naturally generous spirit, it’s likely the “Halo” singer was so willing to help out the BeyHive in the nation’s capital due to their “ENERGY.” During the upbeat song, on which Queen B collaborated with BEAM, she’s made a tradition of having her audience go dead silent when she sings the lyrics, “Look around, eerybody on mute.” With each performance, the crowd has gotten better at playing along with her game. According to a tweet on Monday (August 7) morning, Beyonce has crowned DC as the winner of her “war.”

Beyonce Has Big Love for Fans in Washington DC

In response to the news, one fan retweeted a video from the moment that Beyonce was stunned by her crowd. Due to their complete silence, a literal echo could be heard in the stadium. This led the Houston native to crack a not-so-subtle smile before giving out the award.

As you may recall, a fan of Beyonce’s was stabbed last month while dancing in a gas station parking lot. The “CUFF IT” hitmaker was sure to show the late man love during a recent performance, and his killer has since been charged with a hate crime. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates. RIP.

Beyoncé Declared Washington DC As The ‘Eerbody On Mute War Winner’

Throughout her Renaissance tour, Beyoncé has issued a fun challenge to her audiences: When she sings the line “Look around / Everybody on mute” from Renaissance highlight “Energy,” the audience is supposed to remain as quiet as they possibly can. Well, Beyoncé was particularly impressed by one tour stop, as she declared one city the winner: Washington DC.

On August 6, Beyoncé performed at FedExField in Landover, Maryland (just a few miles outside of the DC city limits). Fan-shoot footage shows that when it came to the moment of truth, most people in attendance did a terrific job of shutting their mouths and allowing a profound near-silence to settle across the venue. Beyoncé even gave DC an official acknowledgement, writing on her website that the city was the “eerbody on mute war winner.”

While that moment went well, the evening got off to a rocky start: Before the show started, FedExField issued a shelter-in-place order due to lightning in the area. Fans were eventually allowed to return to their sets, but it did cause a delay for the show. Beyoncé came through, though: The singer paid $100,000 to extend the DC Metro trains by an hour, so fans would be able to get home. The money paid to “keep all 98 stations open for customers to exit and operational expenses.”

Teen Arrested in the Murder of O’Shae Sibley, Charged with Hate Crime

Beyoncé Tributes O'Shae Sibley, Who Died After Being Attacked While Dancing to 'Renaissance' Album

A suspect has been arrested for the fatal stabbing of O’Shae Sibley, who was killed after an attack at a gas station as he danced to Beyoncé’s Renaissance album.

According to the New York Police Department, the suspect is a teenager who has been charged with second-degree murder. The incident has also been labeled a hate crime.

Beyonce recently paid tribute to Sibley, honoring the late dancer with a tribute on her website, writing: “REST IN POWER O’SHEA SIBLEY.”

O’Shae Sibley was dancing at one of the gas pumps when he was approached by several men who said his dancing offended their Muslim faith.

Sibley was with a group of friends who were all shirtless and wearing swimsuit or shorts on one of the hottest nights in July. The Muslim men believed Sibley was wearing pink boxer shorts.

The suspects allegedly shouted anti-gay slurs at Sibley and his friends. “They were saying, ‘Oh, we’re Muslim, so don’t do this in front of me,” a witness said.

“From that I think it looks like a hate crime,” he added. “This guy was dancing in underwear and the suspect was like ‘Why are you dancing in your underwear?’”

The witness said the victim and his friends began arguing with the suspects. One of the Muslim men started recording on his cell phone.

The witness said the man recording the victim walked away through the parking lot. But Sibley chased after him and was stabbed by the man.

Sibley suffered a stab wound to the abdomen and left a trail of blood behind him as he staggered along the sidewalk before collapsing.

He was taken to Maimonides Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

Sibley was well known in the ballroom community, CBS News reports.

The witness believes the suspect was motivated by homophobia. “Obviously, they are gay and if they are dancing that’s the problem they had,” he said.

The NYPD is asking for the public’s help to identify the suspect.

Beyonce “RENAISSANCE” Tour Crew Member Called Out For Touching Her Butt In Viral Video

by

After spending the first half of her summer overseas in Europe, Beyonce is now back home in America. She’s been proudly bringing the RENAISSANCE World Tour to fans all across the country. At nearly every show so far, there’s been at least one viral moment floating around online. Whether it’s Jay-Z’s antics in the audience, or Blue Ivy Carter joining her proud mom in front of tens of thousands cheering her on, crowds never know what to expect. We’ve also seen some moments with Bey’s team members catch the internet’s attention. One of her dancers helped with a near-wardrobe mishap. More recently, a stagehand seemingly grabbed the blonde beauty’s behind while helping her down.

In a TikTok taken at a recent show, the Houston native hands her microphone to one man. Another then takes her hand as she climbs down from a large vehicle that’s part of her stage design. The costume she was wearing at the time included cutouts on the back side, leaving her butt covered by nothing more than tights. As Beyonce descends from the ladder, the man to her right keeps his hand clearly in the middle of her bodacious behind.

Beyonce Continues to Conquer Stages Around the Globe

In the latter half of the video, the “Halo” singer’s longtime bodyguard, Julius, appears, though he was forced to run to keep up with Beyonce and her crew members. “Someone is getting fired in Boston 😂😭,” the original poster wrote on their video. In the comments, many have joked that it looks as though Julius is angrily running after his boss and her team after the awkward display.

Interestingly, Beyonce’s booty has been in the news for another reason this week. Like most superstar performers, she has a personalized hospitality rider to accommodate her backstage needs at each show, and it seems one priority for the mother of three is having her own toilet seats installed in the bathrooms. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

What Time Does Beyoncé Go On Stage For The ‘Renaissance Tour?’

Beyoncé is having a blast as she continues the North American leg of her Renaissance Tour — and so are the fans, who put on their sparkliest outfits for the shows they attend. It has been this way since the European dates, as the pop star turns the concert into an all-out celebration.

She also doesn’t have an opening act, which might have many wondering when she starts the show and what time they should be there. Thankfully, we’re here to help with the answers!

According to Setlist.FM, Beyoncé’s most recent show at Massachusetts’ Foxborough Stadium had the doors open at 5 p.m.. The concert then kicked off at 9, with her full set spanning several hours until around 11:30.

However, in other cities, she has gone on at varied times. At Detroit and the second New Jersey shows, it began at 9:30 p.m.. For the first Jersey date, she started at 9:10. This also delays the concert’s end time until closer to midnight.

Other key information is that the time that the doors open for the Renaissance Tour also vary by city. Chicago‘s opened at 6, Louisville‘s at 6:30. Depending on what show you’re attending, the safest bet is to verify the times with the venue to get a stronger idea.

Tina Knowles Shuts Down Talk of Beyoncé Shading Lizzo Following Recent Controversy: ‘Y’all Should Really Stop’

Tina Knowles Reveals Beyonce and Solange Always Celebrated Juneteenth In Houston

Beyoncé didn’t intentionally omit Lizzo during her Renaissance World Tour show in Boston, according to Ms. Tina Knowles.

Fans at the Renaissance World Tour in Boston pointed out that Beyoncé skipped over Lizzo’s name during her “Queens Remix” performance of “Break My Soul.” The segment normally lists the iconic women throughout music history. During that performance, Beyoncé repeated Erykah Badu‘s last name instead.

This follows a scathing lawsuit that accused Lizzo of multiple forms of harassment and discrimination. You can read more on that here.

Hitting the Jasmine Brand comments, Tina Knowles notes Beyoncé didn’t sing her own sister’s name either.

Fans also pointed out Beyoncé using Badu could also be the acknowledgment of the Neo Soul legend shading her over her tour wardrobe choices. You can read more on that here.
