Beyonce And Jay-Z Attend Renaissance Film Premiere Together

November 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Last year, Beyonce released her new album Renaissance. It spawned hit songs like “BREAK MY SOUL” and “CUFF IT” while also raking in praise from critics for its eclectic blend of influences. Earlier this year she took off on her massive Renaissance tour across North America and Europe. The tour made nightly news for the high-profile guests in attendance and various collaborators she had join her on stage.

Earlier this year after the tour wrapped up, she announced that a concert film recapping the shows would be released in December. It followed in the footsteps of Taylor Swift, who also turned the North American portion of her Eras Tour into a concert film that was released earlier this month. Now with the release of the Renaissance film coming later this week, the movie is being premiered at numerous locations around the world. Earlier this week the film had its North American premiere in Hollywood and the celebrities showed out. Lizzo, Halle Bailey, and Lori Harvey were all in attendance and there was even a Destiny’s Child reunion. Now the film is having its London premiere which is once again stacked with guests.

One person who showed up to the film’s new premiere could certainly be considered a guest of honor. Jay-Z and Beyonce hit up the premiere together and pictures of the pair are circulating online. Much like earlier in the week, fans are once again asking some questions about Bey’s new blonde look. Some fans are even going as far as to say that she looks unrecognizable or theorizing that she may have a body double of some kind.

The Renaissance tour film is expected to have a massive opening weekend at the box office. Similarly, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour film earlier this year went out to massive numbers of its own. The film has already cleared $250 million across its first two weekends in theaters. What do you think of the new pictures of Beyonce and Jay-Z and the Renaissance tour film premiere? Let us know in the comments below.

Taylor Swift and Beyoncé have been pitted against each other this year, since their respective tours, The Eras Tour and Renaissance, have been the biggest concert events of 2023. It doesn’t feel like Swift and Beyoncé themselves see each other as adversaries, though. In October, Beyoncé made a surprise appearance at Swift’s premiere for her Eras Tour concert movie.

Now, the shoe is on the other foot: Beyoncé’s own film chronicling her own massive tour (dubbed Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé) is premiering in London today (November 30), and it has been rumored that Swift was planning to show up. TMZ reported earlier today that Swift hopped on a private jet bound for London, and it appears that’s the truth: The UK premiere is getting underway, as photos and videos of Swift on the red carpet are starting to surface on social media.

Swift posed for photos and videos with fans in attendance while rocking an outfit featuring a sparkling silver Balmain gown, jewelry via Anita Ko, and shoes from Giuseppe Zanotti.

Meanwhile, Swift recently released the fan-favorite song “You’re Losing Me” on streaming platforms, and Beyoncé’s only a few days removed from the Beverly Hills premiere of the Renaissance movie.

Tina Knowles Defends Beyonce’s “Renaissance” Premiere Appearance

November 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tina Knowles has come to Beyonce’s defense after her daughter attended the Renaissance concert film premiere in a full silver outfit, including platinum hair. The decision sparked backlash on social media from users who claimed she was trying “to be white.” Knowles labeled it a “stupid narrative with hate and jealousy.”

She began on Instagram: “Came across this today and decided to post it after seeing all of the stupid ignorant self, hating racist statements about her, lightening her skin, and wearing platinum hair wanting to be white. She does a film, called the renaissance, where the whole theme is silver with silver hair, a silver carpet, and suggested silver attire and you bozos decide that she’s trying to be a white woman and is bleaching her skin?”

She also called out TMZ for reaching out to Beyonce’s hair stylist for a comment on the story. “I am sick and tired of people attacking her,” Knowles continued. “Every time she does something that she works her ass off for and is a statement of her work ethic, talent and resilience. Here you sad little haters come out the woodwork. Jealousy and racism, sexism, double standards, you perpetuate those things. Instead of celebrating a sister or just ignoring if you don’t like her. I am sick of you losers. I know that she is going to be pissed at me for doing this, but I am fed up ! This girl minds her own business. She helps people whenever she can. She lifts up & promotes black women and underdogs at all times.” Check out the full post below.

How Much Is Beyoncé’s ‘Renaissance’ Movie Cup?

November 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

December 1, Beyoncé’s Renaissance film hits theaters, along with some special goodies for fans who make it a point to see it opening weekend. AMC Theatres is offering an exclusive Renaissance-themed popcorn bucket and drink cup (which will very likely sell out before the weekend is over).

According to the AMC website, the popcorn bucket will be $22.99, while the cup will be $12.99. (MacGuffins Bar is also selling a Renaissance-themed Paloma with tequila AND gin if you would like to get absolutely sloshed during the movie.)

The film premiered in Los Angeles on Saturday, November 25, in an event that saw the reunion of all five members of Destiny’s Child, as well as a whole galaxy of R&B stars inspired by Beyoncé. Meanwhile, the movie itself is said to be both a concert film and a behind-the-scenes documentary of both the tour and the making of the album that prompted it.

A moment that is already being discussed finds Beyoncé admitting that her daughter Blue Ivy’s appearances on the tour weren’t initially planned as such (the first was supposed to be a one-off) and praising the 11-year-old’s tenacity as she worked hard to improve her own performance after some harsh comments online.

How Much Is Beyoncé’s ‘Renaissance’ Movie Popcorn Bucket?

November 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

This weekend, longsuffering Beyoncé fans will finally get to see the concert movie Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé after months of hype and speculation. The movie will be an AMC Theatres exclusive, and as such, come with multiple perks like a themed drink at the chain’s MacGuffins Bar and exclusive collectibles (tequila AND gin though? YEESH). A Renaissance popcorn bucket and collectible cup will both be available for purchase (provided you go on day one because you just know the Hive is all over those) beginning on November 30.

The popcorn bucket will be $22.99 while the cup will cost $12.99. If that seems a little steep, just remember: Rocket Raccoon’s popcorn bucket ran Guardians Of The Galaxy fans 30 bucks. Both Renaissance collectibles feature the film’s title in shimmering silver print along with a silver silhouette of Beyoncé herself draped along the logo. Fans going on opening weekend will also get a chance at a free mini poster of Beyoncé in a 1950s sci-fi space explorer outfit.

At the film’s premiere on Saturday, stars came out in droves to support Beyoncé, including all four previous members of Destiny’s Child. Other big-name BeyHivers (and accent mark lovers) included the singer’s proteges Chlöe and Halle Bailey, Coco Jones, Janelle Monáe, Normani, Victoria Monét, and more.

Did Beyoncé Direct The ‘Renaissance’ Movie?

November 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

This weekend, Beyoncé’s concert film, Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé, premiered in Los Angeles with a star-studded event attended by a who’s-who of today’s biggest names in music. While the film itself is set to hit theaters on December 1, you can probably expect to learn more about the movie this week, whenever any embargoes are lifted by Parkwood Entertainment.

However, there are a few things we already know. Thanks to the film’s trailer we know that there will be some behind-the-scenes footage, as well as those long-awaited music videos. And thanks to the film’s marketing we know who directed it: Beyoncé herself, along with James B. Merryman and Mark Ritchie, adding another hyphen to her long list of talents.

One of the other takeaways from the film’s premiere was how her daughter, Blue Ivy, improved her stage presence after seeing some negative comments online. As it happens, the 11-year-old was only supposed to appear at one tour stop after finagling a concession from her perfectionist mom, but once she had something to prove, she trained hard for future appearances.

Meanwhile, Beyoncé fans couldn’t help but speculate about which moments from the singer’s massive Renaissance World Tour made it into the film, sharing predictions via social media ranging from inspired to downright silly.

Destiny’s Child Reunites At Beyonce’s “RENAISSANCE” Film’s World Premiere

November 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Beyonce’s RENAISSANCE film just had its world premiere in Hollywood over the weekend, and a lot of celebrities showed out in their best for the occasion. Lori Harvey, Chlöe, Halle Bailey, DDG, Tina Lawson, Matthew Knowles, Janelle Monáe, Victoria Monét, and so many others popped out to have a great time. Most notably, though, this event also brought about another Destiny’s Child reunion, which is always amazing to see. Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland looked stunning, whereas OG members LaTavia Roberson and LeToya Luckett also came dressed to impress.The only other name missing- aside Queen Bey herself, who didn’t appear on the “chrome” carpet for the premiere- was Farrah Franklin, and the reason for her absence is publicly unknown.

Regardless, it’s still great to see the R&B icons have a ball together again, and come together for a monumental occasion. In fact, the RENAISSANCE film features some moments dedicated to capturing Destiny’s Child’s reunion at the Houston Homecoming show for the tour. “It was like a new birth for us, and a lot of healing,” Beyonce said in a narration over the footage. Maybe this won’t be the last we’ll hear from these female singers, as 2023 marks the 25th anniversary of the group’s debut album.

Destiny’s Child Reunites At Beyonce’s Concert Film Premiere

After all, Matthew Knowles hinted at a comeback in May of this year. “It’s a decision that the ladies would have to make,” he explained. “And I would certainly, certainly support that decision as I still manage Destiny’s Child. I would love to see that as well. I think the fans will be just overjoyed, overwhelmed. And hopefully they do one last time in their career. Hopefully they give us one last album. Who knows? You never know. You never say it can’t happen. Because this is entertainment. A lot of things can happen.”
