“RENAISSANCE” Film “Rotten Tomatoes” Score Has Tina Knowles Rejoicing

Tina Knowles took to social media to celebrate the RENAISSANCE concert film garnering a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes. “Just realized that 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes!!! That is huge!!! Please repost! This is history! Sooooo proud!!!” Knowles wrote in one post. “Last one about the Rotten Tomatoes! Just saw this!! When you see how hard someone works and all the sacrifices they make because for the last month my child was in a studio 24 hours a day. I was with her most of the time of that time sleeping in the studio! She only went to take her kids to school, to shower, and then come back. There are only a few people that understand how hard she works! How she works on every single thing that goes out in a movie or a video or a tour. That is why I ride so hard for her!!! She deserves every acolade that she gets,” Knowles added.

Renaissance: A Film By Beyonce is expected to be the best film of the weekend. Today, the AP reported that the film opened to a $21 million domestic weekend. That would mark the best December opening for a film since the 2003 Tom Cruise vehicle The Last Samurai. With its projected opening, Renaissance tops the charts over Godzilla Minus One, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Snakes & Songbirds, and Napoleon.

Fans Accuse Beyonce Supporting Israel

However, not everyone is celebrating the release of Beyonce’s film. Videos of fans in Israel celebrating the release of the film has led to criticism for Beyonce online. People have claimed that Beyonce’s film opening in Israel is inherent support of Israel by Beyonce. Despite this, people have argued that Beyonce is likely not in control of the film’s distribution. Instead, it’s more likely that Beyonce has a distribution agreement, most likely with AMC. As a result of this, the film may be shown in controversial places, such as Israel.

This week saw the end of a number of temporary ceasefires between Israel and Palestine. With the end of the ceasefire, Israel has commenced a heavy bombing campaign against targets in the southern Gaza Strip. The area has becoming increasingly dense as Israel has consistently ordered evacuations from the northern Gaza Strip in recent weeks.

Beyoncé’s Mother Tina Knowles Shot Down ‘Bozos’ Who Accused The Star Of Bleaching Her Skin

Beyoncé’s mom Tina Knowles has long been a protective force in her daughter’s life and this week, she once again stepped into that role to defend Beyoncé from a malicious rumor circulating online in the wake of the premiere event for Beyoncé’s Renaissance film.

After some fans observed that the star looked paler than normal in the photo of herself she posted from the premiere, Momma Tina clapped back, calling those critics self-hating “bozos” promoting a long-debunked, toxic narrative about her daughter.

Comments and gossip rags accused Beyoncé of lightening her skin with editing tools, with some going as far as speculating that she was bleaching it to look white. Knowles also noted that TMZ reached out to Beyoncé’s stylist for a comment about the responses to her premiere look, calling out the reporter’s “entitlement.”

For what it’s worth, Beyonce is a lighter-skinned Black woman at an event where many of the photographers likely had their cameras and lighting set up to capture a wide range of skin tones, including very dark ones which are frequently underlit in mass media. Combine that with Beyoncé’s wardrobe — a silver dress and complementary platinum blonde wig — and the way the photo turned out makes perfect sense.

This isn’t the first time Beyoncé has been the center of colorist/colorism comments online. A few years ago, her father Matthew Knowles told Ebony that at least some of Beyoncé’s success is due to colorism.

Beyoncé herself has made efforts to uplift Black women of all shades through songs like “Brown Skin Girl,” her previous film Black Is King, and the shout-out to her mom’s native Louisiana roots in “Formation,” among others.

You can read Tina Knowles’ full post below.

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 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? .. How sad is it that some of her own people continue the stupid narrative with hate and jealousy. Duh, she wore silver hair to match her silver dress as a fashion statement clown. “ALIEN Superstar” duh! What’s really sad is that a white woman had the audacity to reach out to Neal, Beyoncé’s hairstylist, from TMZ to say that the fans are saying that she wants to be white and she wanted to get a statement about it from Neal. Well that made my blood boil, that this white woman felt so entitled to discuss her blackness.

What’s really most disappointing is some Black people — yes you bozos that’s on social media — lying and faking and acting like you’re so ignorant that you don’t understand that Black women have worn platinum hair since the Etta James days. I just went and looked at all the beautiful talented Black celebrities who have worn platinum hair and it has been just about every one of them at one time or another. Are they all trying to be white? I am sick and tired of people attacking her. 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 her 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.

Tina Knowles Defends Beyonce’s “Renaissance” Premiere Appearance

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?”

Blue Ivy’s “Renaissance” Performance Was Originally A “One Time Thing,” Tina Knowles Says

During her recent appearance on SHERRI, Tina Knowles opened up about seeing her granddaughter Blue Ivy perform at the Renaissance tour. According to her, the 11-year-old’s appearance was supposed to be a “one-time thing,” but Beyonce’s daughter had other ideas. Knowles recalls being nervous for Blue Ivy ahead of her first performance. The pre-teen quickly proved, however, that she wouldn’t let anything hold her back.

As for whether or not Blue Ivy had a grasp of the magnitude of what she was doing, Knowles said “I don’t think so.” The proud grandmother continued, revealing that her passion is what guided her. “She just loves to dance and she was watching the girls rehearse and she said, ‘I think I’m ready to go on stage,’ and her mom said ‘no no I don’t think so Blue.’ Then she thought about it, and said ‘if you work hard and you really come with it then we’ll let you go one time.’ So it was supposed to be a one-time thing.

Clearly, things went off without a hitch. Blue Ivy went on to be featured through the remainder of the tour. According to her grandmother, she and her father couldn’t be more excited to see her on stage. “Me and her dad we were together every night,” Knowles explained. “And he would come to the front where I was and watch that. I was in tears and he was grinning so hard I thought his face would hurt.”

“She’s only 11 years old,” Knowles described. “And to get in front of 70 thousand people at 11 is huge.” What do you think of Tina Knowles revealing that Blue Ivy’s Renaissance tour appearance was supposed to be a one time thing?

The Knowles family is full of stars, from matriarch Tina Knowles, her daughters Beyoncé and Solange, and the next generation: Queen Bey’s daughter, Blue Ivy. Moreover, they all share a lot of love for each other, and also inspire each other artistically. While Blue has been dancing for her mom’s RENAISSANCE tour as of late, she’s also quite skilled with makeup and beauty products. Via a new Instagram post, Tina revealed that the 11-year-old has actually been her makeup artist for years now. She shared a heartening caption, and gave Ivy her flowers in the video itself.

“Hi!” Tina Knowles began in the video. “I’m here with the makeup extraordinaire, Miss Blue Ivy Carter. She just did my makeup! She’s been doing my makeup for years. And I really like it. I just don’t know about- I don’t know if you can see it, but I got, like, little glittery stuff on the top. I told her I think I might be a tad bit too old for glitter on the top of my eyes. But what do y’all think?” Hilariously, Blue Ivy says “No” when the 69-year-old doubted whether she can still rock glitter.

Tina Knowles Shuts Down Beyonce Toilet Seat Rumor

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

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.
