Beyonce Experiences Technical Difficulties On “Renaissance” Tour Stop

by

It’s rare that an entire tour goes by without some hiccups along the way. So far across both the European and North American legs of Beyonce’s Renaissance tour, she’s maintained consistency from a technical standpoint. One of the tour’s first viral slip-ups came last night during a show in Arizona. In the middle of a song she was performing, Bey’s mic cut out completely. Unsurprisingly, she was a consummate professional continuing her performance.

The technical error resulted in a 10-minute delay in the show, which fans didn’t seem to mind all that much. They chanted her name during much of the downtime between songs. Most of the reactions were about what Queen B herself may think. “Beyoncé is gonna fire everyone. From the production to the stadium staff. Even the football players that use it. They’re all fired,” one fan said on Twitter. Given how locked down the tour has been up to this point, it’s hard to imagine much coming from this one slip-up.

Beyonce Shakes Off Technical Difficulties

Beyonce’s Renaissance Tour has been impressive for reasons even beyond its consistent lack of tech issues. Across 11 shows in the month of July, she broke Bad Bunny’s record for highest grossing tour in a single month. That announcement came just a few weeks after she broke another record. That record saw her achieving the highest-grossing single show by a female soloist ever. She recently took to her Instagram story to ask fans to wear shimmering silver clothes to every show during Virgo season.

During a recent series of shows in Atlanta, celebs and fellow musicians showed up in spades. Chloe x Halle, Quavo, Summer Walker, 21 Savage, and more took the opportunity to see the queen perform in Atl. They’re only the most recent in a long series of celebs to turn out to Renaissance tour stops dating all the way back to her performances across Europe earlier this year. What do you think of Beyonce’s handling of technical difficulties during a recent show? Let us know in the comment section below.

One of the most famous Virgos alive has a special request going forward this Virgo season. Beyonce made a rare post to her Instagram overnight with a special request for fans coming to her shows for the next month. “Virgo season is upon us. This tour has been such a joy and as we approach the last month, my birthday wish is to celebrate with you wearing your most fabulous silver fashions to the shows 8.23-9.22,” the superstar said on her story post. “We’ll surround ourselves in a shimmering human disco ball each night. Everybody mirroring each other’s joy. Virgo season together in the house of chrome. See you there!”

Fans in the comment section understood just how rarely Bey makes public statements like this. “Beyoncé NEVER posts on her story.. I think y’all should listen. She prolli recording it for sumthing,” reads the top comment on the post. Others predicted that it could be hard to get your hands on certain things once Bey is done touring. “Lawd let me go stock up cause there’s not gonna a piece of foil left when this is over,” one heavily upvoted comment reads.

Beyonce Asks Fans To Come Wearing Silver

Earlier this month Beyonce found herself in the middle of another artist’s big scandal. Lizzo faced a shocking sexual and workplace harassment lawsuit from three of her previous dancers. The day that the news went public Bey skipped over Lizzo’s name when she performed the Queens Remix of her song “Break My Soul.” In the days following, her mother Tina Knowles insisted that it wasn’t a diss and that she didn’t mean anything by skipping over Lizzo’s name. Queen B herself seemed to confirm that at a recent show when she said “I love you, Lizzo.”

During that stop in Atlanta celebrities piled on top of each other to see Beyonce perform. Chloe x Halle, 21 Savage, Summer Walker, Quavo, and more were all in attendance. What do you think of Beyonce’s request for fans to wear silver to her shows for Virgo season? Let us know in the comment section below.

Tina Knowles Shuts Down Beyonce Toilet Seat Rumor

by

One of the sillier rumors that has followed Beyonce along the Renaissance tour is a claim that she brings her own toilet seats everywhere she goes. The rumor spawned from a black box labeled “toilet seats” that was spotted at the show. As the picture made the rounds fan concocted the story that Bey was traveling with her own personal toilet seats. Now a pretty trustworthy source close to Bey is confirming that the story is in fact a total fiction.

TMZ caught up with Beyonce’s mother Tina Knowles to ask her about a number of different things. One question brought up was the toilet seat rumor which she slammed as “so ridiculous.” Tina explained that the boxes are used as props for placing fans on stage, though she’s not sure why they’re called toilet seats. Tina is quite the expert on the Renaissance tour as she’s popped up at a number of shows so far. A few weeks ago she turned up to one of the concerts alongside Oprah and Gayle King.

Beyonce Doesn’t Actually Travel With Her Own Toilet Seats

This isn’t the first time Tina Knowles has served as a source of clarification for Renaissance tour rumors. Following Lizzo’s hostile workplace lawsuit being made public, Beyonce skipped over her name in the Queens Remix of “Break My Soul.” While many interpreted that move as a diss, Tina insisted it wasn’t and that fans were reading into things too much. She appeared to be correct when Bey said she “loves” Lizzo during a show in Atlanta last night.

Beyonce’s run of shows in Atlanta attracted all kinds of celebrity attention. Quavo, Summer Walker, 21 Savage, and Chloe and Halle Bailey were all in attendance for the shows. The entire tour has been a hot bed for celebrity attention as even fellow celebs can’t resist the opportunity to see Bey perform. What do you think of the rumors of Beyonce bringing her own toilet seats on tour being fake? Let us know in the comment section below.

There’s A Wild Rumor About Beyoncé’s Toilet Usage On Tour, So Tina Knowles Addressed It

by

Earlier this month, it was reported that on the Renaissance tour, Beyoncé brings her own toilet seats so she doesn’t have to make do with used ones. A box seen backstage labeled “Beyoncé Toilet Seats” seemed to bolster the claim, and somebody reportedly told The Sun, “Beyoncé is such an elite performer she can literally request anything. Her tour roadies have seen everything so it’s not a great deal for them, but it does raise a smile from people who happen to catch a glimpse of the branded container.”

It appears, though, that this isn’t true. At least, that’s what Beyoncé’s mom, Tina Knowles-Lawson, is saying.

A TMZ interviewer asked Knowles about the toilet rumor yesterday (August 14) and Knowles laughed, saying, “That is so ridiculous.” The interviewer then made note of the box labeled “toilet seats” and Knowles explained, “Yeah, because those are stands that you put fans on, they’re called ‘toilet seats.’”

Meanwhile, Beyoncé brought her tour to Atlanta last night, and while on stage, she gave a shout out to Lizzo, saying, “I love you, Lizzo.” This came after people thought Beyoncé intentionally omitted Lizzo’s name from her performance of “Break My Soul (The Queens Remix)” after news of the Lizzo lawsuit was revealed.

Lizzo is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Beyoncé Delivered An Endearing Message To Lizzo As Allegations Continue To Mount Against The Singer

The city of Atlanta, Georgia’s love for Beyoncé was put on full display when local officials marked August 11, 2023, a commemorative holiday named after her. After taking the stage of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Beyhive members in attendance at her August 12 Renaissance World Tour stop amped things up and snatched Washington, DC‘s crown as the winners of the Eerbody On Mute challenge.

But Beyoncé had someone she wanted to pour into while on stage yesterday (August 14) for her final night in the city. She took a moment to deliver an endearing message to Lizzo. “I love you, Lizzo,” she told the sold-out crowd.

Lizzo hasn’t responded to Beyoncé’s statement. Still, it must come as a great comfort when factoring in fans’ speculations that her recent legal woes played a part in Made In America 2023’s sudden cancellation, a festival long associated with Beyoncé’s husband, Jay-Z. On August 1, when Beyoncé skipped over Lizzo’s name during her “Break My Soul (Queens Remix)” onstage, users alleged that the pending litigation again was at the root.

However, that was quickly snuffed out when Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, denied the claims on social media.

Lizzo is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

The Bailey sisters have crossed paths with Beyonce on multiple occasions over the years. Following the release of Chloe’s debut solo studio album, In Pieces, she revealed that Beyonce gave her notes on the project. “Yes, I know she listened to the album,” Bailey told E.T. after the release of In Pieces. “She gave me notes on it before I released it. I love her so much. Dearly, dearly, and I’m so grateful to her for everything.” Beyonce also presented Chloe and Halle with the Rising Star Award at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards, referring to them as her “sisters.” She said: “You’ve done this with authenticity, with grace, with raw talent, and you manage to shine in every room you enter, and I’ll always love you.”

Speaking of the release of In Pieces, many fans of Chloe blamed poor sales numbers on a lack of promotion from Beyonce. In response, Chloe shut down the complaints. “I love B,” she said on The Breakfast Club. “She supported my sis and I since we had our little locs on YouTube so it’s all love over here, I love her. I was like, ‘At least they’re talking.’ And at least people will go and listen to the project. And as much as people try to bring up numbers and things like that, I’m trending every other day. Marketing can’t buy that. A label can’t buy that. So people care enough to constantly have my name in their mouth. So, I’m doing something right.”

Wherever it travels, Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour is the hottest ticket in town. On Friday, August 11, ahead of her first night of shows in Atlanta, Georgia, city officials declared the date an official holiday, “Beyoncé Day.” But that wasn’t the only thing city natives did to show their love for Beyoncé.

On Saturday, August 12, during night two of her Renaissance World Tour, concertgoers proved they were the singer’s most devoted fans by dethroning Washington, DC, of their crown of the “Eerbody On Mute War” winners. The contest started as a fun crowd engagement moment to see who could best sing along to the lyrics to “Energy,” namely, “Look around / Everybody on mute.” It’s turned into a battle of the regional Beyhives.

Once it was time for the Mercedes-Benz Stadium to go silent, they flawlessly hit their mark, and Beyoncé gleefully declared the Atlanta audience as the new “Eerbody On Mute” challenge winners.

Earlier in the show, Beyoncé opened up to the sold-out stadium about what the tour means to her. “This is the gratitude tour,” she said. “This show is all about joy. I hope y’all feel a lot of joy. When I get up on this stage and see y’all, that’s what I feel. Y’all look beautiful tonight.”

Beyoncé is having the time of her life on her critically acclaimed Renaissance World Tour. This weekend, the “Break My Soul” hitmaker is currently in Atlanta, where she took the stage last night (August 11) at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and will do so again tonight (August 12) and Monday (August 14).

While in Atlanta, the Beyhive has already shown her much love, and she’s returned the love by crowning the ATL-hive the current winners of the “everybody on mute” challenge. Additionally, the city has also bestowed upon Beyoncé quite an honor.

Though Bey hails from Houston, Texas, the City of Atlanta has officially declared August 11 “Beyoncé Day.” A proclamation was written by the Atlanta City Council in recognition of one Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter.

“As an accomplished singer, songwriter, and producer, Beyoncé has continuously pushed the boundaries of creativity,” reads the proclamation, “using her art to tell stories that resonate with diverse audiences and advocate for social change. Her dedication to empowering women, supporting LGBTQ+ rights, and advocating for racial equality has had a profound impact on communities worldwide.”

For those going to the other Atlantas shows tonight and Monday, Uproxx has put together some nifty guides on how to navigate parking and ridesharing at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
