Countdown to touchdown!
Beyonce‘s eagerly anticipated Super Bowl spectacle is merely a week away. And while little is known about the near 15 minute extravaganza, the budding icon has given a sneak peek at her preparation process via Instagram.
With rehearsals well under way in New Orleans, multiple sources close to That Grape Juice assert that fans are in for a showcase of epic proportions; one that will also bring with it a number of surprises. Take from that what you will.
For now, though, check out another pic after the jump, as well as one of our favourite King B performances…
Via Beyonce / Instagram:
Bzzz Bzzz Bzzz Honeysuckers, where your GLUE at?
“Beyonce is cliche of everything that has ever been disingenuous about the music business. A soulless Mariah Doll, with plastic doll parts pregnancy, who was plucked off the streets of no where and put on–simply because the outfit was her size. In other words: commerce…created and puppet mastered by money grubbing music husband.
The bottom line is that Beyonce was not built to last and is very “replaceable.” This is why she does not take breaks, and repetitiously puts out a generic by-the-numbers pop album every year. Being that she has little ‘star power,’. She mingles with the President to make her look important in order to sustain her momentum she has to continually strike while the iron is hot, while employing a multitude of petty ‘stunts’ to get attention (tacky baby, fake her colors,filling her b*** with chemicals, referencing her tumultuous relationship with her dad to be in the cover of magazines.
Rest in peace, hope your earpiece will save your Halftime Superbowl in which the last show you will ever perform before you join Fantasia Barrino and Janet Jackson hall of Shame.
Good Bye 🙁

***fingers crossed*** 😛
Crappy NFL pop s*** half time show ever. No one in the stadium cares and everyone at home goes to p***, make a sandwich and take your dogs to poop.
LOL
Single Ladies the song opener…WTF…so mundane and desperate.. 🙁
Hold up a minute h**!! Lev Janet and Tasia the f*** outcho fuckn mouf!! S****! Bey will fend for herself. It was funny til uthru in Janet and Tasia. Now, remember in 09 when Janet fell in her tribrute to Micheal then she came back that year and slayed the Billboard Awards to smitherines?!! Well all i havta to say is that NOW since this mess of Bey lip syncing is front page WORLD news she finna shut the UNIVERSE down chile!! She has something to prove and when its done EVERYONES fav will b hidin under MOUNTAIN and EVERY stan will KNEEL @ the 2nd comn of GODDESS BEY!! Just as Janet turnt Billboard 09 the f*** out Bey finna have beings from the ANDROMADA galaxy comn here to earth to c this!!
SHE CHOSE SINGLE LADIES TO OPEN THE SHOW….
FAILED !!!!! 😀
Love the way you chose the outline explaining Rihanna’s career and switched a few words around to make it sound relevant to Beyonce. The difference is that Beyonce worked her ass off for her contract back in the 90s. Rihanna on the other hand simply stood there while her career was crafted for her.
Can’t wait. She will get booed….I so excited !!!!!!!!!!! LOL
So Beyonce is going to bring it now and really sing, when she lip synced for the event of the most important and powerful man in the world. Her excuse it was weather,, did New orleans move to South America, it’s in the US same weather. The difference is the song, The Star Spangled Banner, the high notes and the difficulty it is to sing. She had better be careful that she is not booed by the crowd. Lip sync for the pres, and sing for the Su[per Bowl is an insult to the American people.
🙁
Beyonce—————————–> Lady Gaga pt 2
1-2.3…… Lets BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this scammer’s child.
Breaking News: She will be singing… Who Run The Flop- her bigges hit to date
LMFAO
WHATS THE BIG DEAL….SHE NEVER SINGS LIVE ANYWAYS…
^^^^^
😉 love you !!!
Super Bowl half time show that is going to suck donkey balls…wait, that’s insulting donkeys. My apologies to all the donkeys in the world as they are actually productive in the world…
I swear to GOD i hope this b**** falls on that stage and chip her tooth

😛

omg all this beyonce hate LOL here I thought I was alone is seeing right thru her. LOL but it ain’t her fault though. This is what happens when you have a whole bunch of YES people around.
TO Those of you who r saying she was singing, thats
fair but the band has already stated that they did not practice with her and they also stated that the wasn’t playing live music that day DUUUUUH . This was established before they
tried to Recant, their original story to try and save Face. And FUNNNY how Beyonce is practicing for the Super Bowl but did not meet with the marine band to practice, DUUUH,,,
she better bring it….more props to black women ..holding it down. congrats Bey all the best!!
Puhlessze, she hasn’t done anything groundbreaking for the last 4 years.

I still need to know how the previous Justin Timberlake thread became a Beyonce/Rihanna thread.
Her secret is out…Beyonce is not a singer, just a performer like Britney and Kathy Perry.
BEYONCE IS THE EPITOME OF FAKENESS- HAIR, BODY, BOOBS….
🙁
I sung live….whats my excuse then? 🙁
BEYONCE WE KNOW RIH, INSPIRES YOU…
Gearing up for what looks all set to be an internet-halting comeback, Beyonce has recently unveiled a brand new official blog, where she will be sharing details of her lifestyle. “The BeyHive Blog is my way of showing all the inspiring things I come across every single day,” wrote Beyonce, in an open letter on the site. “This is through my eyes…”
The site also aims to pay tribute to her fans: “I’m also featuring beautiful creations from my talented fans,” the ‘Love on Top’ singer explained. “So many of you are making videos, painting. I want to show the world what you do and how much I appreciate you.”
RIHANNA GOT BEYONCE BEING INSPIRED A LOT, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS YOU’D THINK THAT BEYONCE,,,,,WE R TALKING ABOUT BEYONCE SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SHARING SOME TIME WITH ALL OF HER FANS, DAMMMM DO RIH HAVE TO TEACH YO ASS EVERYTHING….
BOTTOM LINE IS BEYONCE AND HER GANG OF
HOOD RATS WILL LEARN THAT NO MATTER WHAT YO
ASS WILL BE IN TROUBLE DISSING OUT ICONIC LEGENDS, PERIOD.
THE ICONIC LEGEND’S PAVE THE WAY FOR MANY TO GET TO WHERE THEY ARE, AND JUST IN CASE BEYONCE AND HER D***** BAG BEY HIVE THINKS THEY CAN JUST CRAP ON THE LEGENDS DEAD AND A LIVE THEY WILL LEARN THAT , DISSING OUR LEGENDS IS A NO, NO!!!!

LOL you post this all the time and it still doesn’t touch the fire storm of mess Beyonce stepped into when she decided to lip-sync the national anthem. WHITE AMERICA take their nationalism seriously. they will kill for thier god & their country. They are gunning for Bey. They don’t like Chris or Rih and never really have however they have always loved Bey & Hov.
Lets HOPE she sings live!!!
LMAO.
ABC NEWS!!!!
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainment/2013/01/beyonce-resurfaces-in-new-orleans-after-lip-syncing-scandal/
Let’s see if @Rihanna ever get another #1
Are you joking? RIHANNA will get another number 1 her songs charts without videos ijs
Americans are preparing to boo her !!!!!!
😀 Can’t wait for this moment.
@Beyonce Husband
If Rihanna gets another #1 song is irrelevant. Let’s she if Beyonce can get one after Beyonce-gate 0_o<– white american's words.
i dont think she can because the acouctic in the stadium is vey bad…
DAMMMM BEYONCE DO LOREL KNOW
YO HAIR WAS LOOKING LIKE THIS,,,MAMMA!
http://mrsgrapevine.com/2013/01/beyonce-fakes-lip-syncs-national-anthem-inauguration/
@ Juelz, noone sings live at a super bowl. Atleast not the whole time! Ya’ll need to start researching before posting.
Yes, people do sing LIVE at the Superbowl…
Prince did and he played the guitar and drums along with it.
The who sang live.
The Rolling Stones sang live.
Michael Jackson sang live.
Only BEYHOE wont!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MJ didn’t sing live, lmao! I bet you thought madonna sang live last year too huh? How old are u?
BUT BEYONCE U R PRIVATE WHY SHOW US NOW?
I MEAN WHEN YOU SPENT COUNTLESS NIGHTS AND DAYS IN THE STUDIO DOING 72 DIFFERENT SONGS FOR YOUR ALBUM “4” WE DIDN’T KNOW!!!
They say Beyonce recorded 72 songs for her record label to choose from for her next CD. Bey stunned record label staff by delivering a whopping 72 tracks to them. Staff at Columbia in New York are now left with the job of sifting through the mountain of finished material to decide the make up of her next album.
@Really
The fact remains that you’re fave will FLOP and will be exposed as the biggest scam artist since MILLI VANILLI.
beyFRAUDULENTce’ is FAKE THEIF who will FLOP.
DEAL.
@really
Beyonce has no choice if she does not sing live her career as she knows it will be OVER! I’m not exaggerating these gun touting, flag waving american’s are bitter and quite put off by her right now. SHE MUST SING LIVE OR ELSE……………
@Really? mj did sing live s*** face so did prince and the rolling stones now f*** off you sad b****

Beyonce Reigns!
Why is this such a big deal? It’s not like Whitney Houston sang the National Anthem live either she lipped it, and no one gave her s*** for it.
No one gave whitney s*** for it because whitney didn’t have this cocky, I’M BETTER THAN EVERYBODY ELSE type of attitude. Plus whitney’s fans acted like CIVILIZED HUMAN-BEINGS. They didn’t have to go around ATTACKING other artists – They SIMPLY let whitney’s talent speak for it-self — same with michael jackson fans. Also why everytime beyonce catch heat from the public you all bring up LEGENDS to justify her ACTIONS? SICK OF IT.
“I’ll probably watch just to see what this Demon has up her sleeves, and the kind of trickery she’ll pull over the masses’ eyes. Now, before you s*** hive start, I’m not a hater and I don’t have a problem with Beyfraudulent, I just like to shade this heifer (sp?) from time to time. Go BEY!!! Time to lip sync for your life, and don’t f*** it up. Let the games begin. #DEAL!!!”
B**** sit yo ass down. Where is your fav. OH I FORGOT HER CAREER IS DONE HAHA STUPID B****.
You need to get the f*** off this blog b**** and go take care of that a** baby of yours Gayz
@BEYHOE IS OVER, whatever! you’re going to watch because you know she’s a good performer. If you didn’t like her you would go outside and smoke or chat it up during halftime. It’s simple as that. You sounded really crazy there. lol!
That THEIVING B**** shall be booed…
MARK MY WORDS.

You know she’s a good performer? that mimes? and p**** pops and weave thrashing back and forward on at illumined stage lmao now you sound delusional

But Beyonce isn’t here for her swarm of flies hey? She doesn’t need the ghetto navi to drag her and flies, she does that all by herself!
She is an embarrassment to herself and her swarm of flies. Bey stans are fools!
Lady Gaga is the one with flies looking like a damn infected dog.
while beyhoe is in fact a infected dog b****
@BEYONCE HUSBAND DON’T TALK ABOUT GAGA LIKE THAT,,,,LET US SEE BEYONCE DO THIS,,,,
GAGA….
Her album “Born This Way” (2011) sold over 1 million copies in the first week. Amazon sold 440,000 copies of the album in its first two days at a price of 99 cents (at a loss of over $3 million). This contributed to the album’s 662,000 digital sales, the highest one-week digital total of all time.

LOOK AT THIS “FAKE, DECIEVING, THIEVING” B**** >>>
No one has ever lip synced the National aethem at the Inauguration ceremony of the Preisdent of the United States and it has been done in colder weather. Why is Beyonce so precious, and Kelly Clarson who sang live at the same cermony isn’t?
You would think a women who has 16 Grammy’s and is paid millions as a singer would be embarrassed to use that excuse. The Problem is Beyonce has ALWAYS PRETENDED to sing even when she sang at the Oscars a few years ago she faked it and the VMA & Billboard awards. The only thing Beyonce excels at is SMOKE & MIRROR GAMES and selling her PERCIEVED AND DESPERATE GREATNESS.
EVERYTHING THIS B**** IS JUST SO FAKE & NOW THE WORLD KNOWS THE TRUTH. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS.
LMFAO.
DRAG THAT THEIF.
lolll sierra you sound to much like a hater!
bee excels is what smoke,? you can dislike her but what deny her talents in live is too muchhhh
she is at a high level!! and concerning the national anthem
look what the professional saidhttp://productionadvice.co.uk/beyonce-didnt-lip-sync-at-the-inauguration-but/
I don’t give a F*** what you think I sound like, the fact is, beyFRAUDULENTce’ continues to remain the FAKE, DECIEVING B**** she is.
LMAO.
What did she fake?????? Or you going by rumors. B**** take a seat and rihanna hoeing ass sleeping with other people man and the same man that almost end her life.
…And Rihanna will STAY F****** every guy like she does, but at least she isn’t hiding it unlike beyFRAUDULENTce’ LIP-SYNCINGowles.
>>>
^^^ EVERYTHING
How do you know that Rihanna sleeps with all those men? Have you seen her doing it? If Rihanna is a h**, Beyonce is a liar who faked her pregnancy to get them sales and who will never seen sales over 10 million with one album. DIL is 8-9 million, don’t try with 11.
@BEYONCE’S HUSBAND
RIH says she don’t care what you think and that people who live in glass houses , should be careful about their rock throwing,,,,

BEYONCE GOT SQURREL TEETH,,,
http://www.rocknycliveandrecorded.com/2011/10/beyonce-faking-pregnancy-claims.html
So I guess Whitney Houston is a fake deceiving b**** to have lip synced at the SB? It’s also said that Beyonce DID sing live over her backing track. You have to be a dumbass to think this will end her career. Most of your favorite artists have done it more than once.
PLEASE DONT BRING THE VOICE IN THIS B****!!! A HISTORICAL IGNAUGURATION>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SUPERBOWL AND WHITNEY SANG LIVE FOR TWO PRESIDENTS NO BACKTRAK NEEDED!!! BEYONCE WILL NEVER TURN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM INTO A GOLDEN GLOBE WIN OR EMMY WIN OR THREE MILLION ALBUM SELLER LIKE WHITNEY DID!!! ALL BEYONCE DID WAS MAKE PEOPLE GO ON YOU TUBE AND WATCH A REAL VOCALIST SLAY THE ANTHEM!!!! WHITNEY HOUSTON!!!!

Rihanna is the definition of a fake ass b****.
She’s a fake singer.
A fake entertainer.
And a fake b**** that uses headlines to stay relevant.
Beyonce may have lipped, but at the end of the day we all know she is capable of singing. Something Rihanna cannot claim.
The Queen is coming! THE QUEEN IS COMING!!!
2013-2014 Belongs to the Queen Bey, Beyoncé!
That’s it! Show these h*** how it’s done.

http://gossiponthis.com/2009/01/30/rihanna-performs-at-the-pepsi-smash-super-bowl-bash/
BEYONCE R U CERTAIN THAT PEPSI WANTED YOU & NOT RIHANNA, DEERY!
Trust nobody want rihanna. Nobody want a woman that smoke crack and suck d*** for living.
NOBODY WANT A EX DOPE DEALER, PUSHER
BUT BEYONCE AND THE WORLD WONDER WHY???
http://officialpsds.com/images/thumbs/Jay-Z-Close-Up-psd38305.png
Rihanna Net Worth is $75000000, and Rihanna Salary 2012 is $53000000. Rihanna is a Barbadian singer, from Saint Michael, Barbados.
If Beyonce only excels at is SMOKE & MIRROR GAMES and selling her PERCIEVED AND DESPERATE GREATNESS and pretending to sing live…
What is RIhanna? I think you got the two mixed up.
The beyonce we see right now is the same beyonce from 97 but more mature.
Can you say the same for RIhanna who started off as a Beyonce wanna be and each era steals styles from other artist who you no long hear from anymore. Putting out an album every year like she as grand as Apple products. If theres anyone who is over exposed, its riYAWNna the no good talented goat singing island w****.
Chris brown better take note to non-factor b****** like rihanna… she’ll mess up his career again.
The fact remains that “Rihanna” doesn’t pretend to present herslef as something beyond than what the public knows she is.
Whether or not she ACTS or PRETENDS, she doesn’t give a F*** and isn’t hung up on being perceived as MEDIA DARLING, unlike beyTRICKERYce’.
beyFRAUDULENTce’ has ALWAYS been a FAKE, DECEITFUL, THIEVING B**** – even since the days of Destiny’s Child, but because of RATthew Knowles, beyTREASONce’ was allowed to get away with it and hide her FAKE nature.
BEYONCE IS THE ONE WHO HAVE GOT Fans the Bey Hive
dissing our legends and calling Her GOD.
WE ALL KNOW THAT THEY HAVE ACCUSED RIHANNA OF EVERY MAN WITH A “HEARTBEAT” NOTHING BUT LIES HOW MANY CAKES HAS JAYZ CRUSHED DUUUUUH!
After this performance the UNIVERSE will kneel before and KNOW she IS Aa GODDESS honey. Mark my prophecy! All will WORSHIP her. (perpared alter for the comn of GODDESS BEY.anyone has any gold they don’t want? The alter is to be gold)
“She doesn’t give a f*** and isn’t hung up on being perceived media darling”
LMAO!!! So you know Rihanna personally now? Oh and if Rihanna didn’t want to be a media darling why was she on every talk show after she got her ass beat by Chris Brown? She was that poor victim suffering from abuse, and now look at the fake b**** riding Chris Brown’s d*** all over the place again.
beyFRAUD is stuck with that blonde , dark hair shows her ageing t***** face.

At least Beyonce has the option of singing. No one wants to hear Rihanna bark out a song.
We saw pics of the Inauguration performance and she still lip synched, so….
FATyonce is not a “king” or a “queen” but a FRAUD!!!

Beyonce and Rihanna are one in the same, same of the different side of the coin bey has copy rih by lip syncing for her life like the way r**** does countless of times and rhihoe is trying to get to the level of beyhoe by being a con man very much like bey h** is …end of story both stans bases are s***
comment by someone on yahoo.:
Look closely at the photo folks. As a professional live sound engineer I can tell you this. On her left shoulder is her wireless “in-ear” vocal monitor. This “headphone” is used so she can hear her own microphone sound right in her left ear and not the echo of the sound through the PA. The reason it isn’t in her ear? The microphone isn’t ON, so the in-ear vocal monitor isn’t needed. She isn’t singing folks, she’s lip-syncing!
FUNNY HOW THIS IS THE ONLY THING THE NAVY HAS….
1. NO #1 HIT SINCE 2008
2. SHE MAY HAVE LIP-SYNCHED
NOW WHAT THE HIVE CAN SAY ABOUT RIHANNA
1. SHE’S SLEPT WITH MOST OF THE INDUSTRY
2. SHE GOT HER ASS BEAT
3. SHE’S STUPID ENOUGH TO GO BACK TO THE DUDE WHO BEAT HER ASS
4. OUT OF 7 ALBUMS SHE’S ONLY GOT 1 #1 ALBUM
5. SHE’S ONLY HAD 1 REAL ENDORSMENT AND THAT WAS NIVEA AND THEY DROPPED HER DUE TO HER IMAGE
6.SHE’S A DRUG JUNKIE
7. NO ONE IN THE INDUSTRY OR ON ANY TYPE OF INTERVIEW HAS SAID SHE WAS AN “ICON” OR A “LEGEND” OR EVEN RESPECT’S HER
8. SHE RARELY WINS ANY AWARDS
9. SHE CAN’T SING LIVE AT ALL! SHE CAN’T PERFORM LIVE AT ALL EITHER.
10. NO OTHER ARTIST HAVE SAID THEY WANTED TO WORK WITH RIHANNA…. NO ONE… BUT EVERYONE SAYS THEY WANT TO WORK WITH BEYONCE…..
YOUR REBUTTAL?
Rihanna doest need to marry with an A** to produce fake babie, paid for Grammys and lied to America and Obama?

You’re silly, watch this video and tell me you can’t tell Beyonce is singing OVER a pre-recorded track with her mic ON. Not sure why she had to sing over it, but she still sang.

At $0.99 anyone could sell that much.
I hope for the beyhives sake that she don’t get booed and her album don’t flop because a lot of people are mad at her. People are on the Internet talking about not watching the halftime show. I hope she does well and if she flops I hope you guys don’t get mad tho. Good luck beyhive 🙂

I am a beyonce fan and honestly, i just want her music, honestly, i don’t care if she don’t sell 10 miilions. But for a reason i don’t understand, everybody sees billboard and cie. And when we see all the comments, we can say there are so many kids who don’t have a life.

Anyway, I heard that BC Jean/Amanda Pazzarolli/Des’Ree and the numerous other artists this THEIF has stolen from are somewhere rejoicing… LMFAO.
Lets HOPE for beyTREASONce’s sake that she DOES sing live and that she DOES give a CREDIBLE performance, along with a CREDIBLE comeback single and album and that it DOESN’T FLOP, because…….
She has just proven herself to be a FAKE, DECIETFUL, B**** whom the world is now mad at.

Beyonce is a done deal.
The 2nd pic looks like new choreography. I hope it’s for the new single 😀 These haters need to get over her lip syncing. If she was lip syncing, then she was doing it to her OWN VOICE which was pre-recorded LIVE. Watch Beyonce bring her female band on stage with her at the Super Bowl. She’s going to sing LIVE! 🙂
why do you stans keep saying she did it to her own voice, well duh!!! what else was it suppose to be? she lipped to a pre-recorded track and a very weak record at that. BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
she was singing LIVE in the pre-recorded track!
THE END IS NEAR….. R I P 🙂

” BEYONCE is cliche of everything that has ever been disingenuous about the music business. A soulless Barbie Doll, with plastic doll parts, who was plucked off the streets of no where and put on–simply because the outfit was her size. In other words: commerce…created and puppet mastered by money grubbing music executives as a tool to co-opt what is currently popular for fast cash, and pandered to the dingiest of music listeners who are not discerning enough to care.
You have to give the label, the management, the A&R people, the songwriters, the producers, the directors and the thousand other magicians involved their credit for being savvy enough to outfit this garden-variety debutante with material and promotion to keep her afloat…but let’s be real, there is nothing ‘special’ or ‘unique’ about BEYONCE, herself. She has little talent, no personality or strong image, nor does she command the stage. Anyone could have been cast in the role BEYONCE plays; she just lucked out. For all intents and purposes, BEYONCE is akin to a can of Hormel Chili; basically a canned product with a label (and a ‘sell by’ date) on it.
The bottom line is that BEYONCE was not built to last and is very “replaceable.” This is why she does not take breaks, and repetitiously puts out a generic by-the-numbers pop album every year. Being that she has little ‘star power,’ in order to sustain her momentum she has to continually strike while the iron is hot, while employing a multitude of petty ‘stunts’ to get attention (tacky wigs, brothel attire, referencing her tumultuous relationship Chris Brown years later.) The moment she sits down to catch her breath, ten more record label assembled chippies will be thrown into the ring and the last two standing will be the next “BEYONCE .”
In 2013, no more do we need windup doll acts like BEYONCE getting on camera and posing like an androidian cast-off from America’s Next Top Model, while vapidly bleating over an empty dance track, hanging around longer than the fifteen minutes that is typically allotted for manufactured pop stars such as her. It’s just getting sad now, and the quality is dipping. Gone are the pseudo-interesting songs like “Umbrella,” now she is peddling random, monotonous dead air like “We Found Love.” The girl has run her course; at this point she is on autopilot and is fast becoming the equivalent of a skipping record.”
I will lst definetely be watching the superbowl – to see BEYHOE FLOP and GET BOOED.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9NpgqE4TPs
U can clearly hear her singing with the track.
…And another thing – No one is surprised she FAKED singing it…..she FAKED her pregnancy, she FAKED her UNCF donations… She is nothing but a FAKE person!!!
LMAO @ the Daily Mail commenters going IN on beyFRAUDce’.

King BEYONCE has you guys pressed. Watch as she collects her $50million and walk by you. She sweeps the floor with you peasants!
YOUR crackhead, black-eyed faves could never. Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
THE King will add to her empire nearing $1 billion. SEETHE people SEETHE!!!!!

THAT 50 MILLION IS GOING TO CAUSE HER HEADACHE.

Probably because she doesn’t release a new album every 10 months, and a single every month like Rihanna.
BEYONCE ADMITS THAT SHE DID IT BECAUSE “SHE WAS INSPIRED”,,,
Over the past few days, media outlets have been accusing Beyonce of stealing her Billboard Awards stage show from Italian singer Lorella Cuccarinni, who performed an almost identical show in 2010. A side by side comparison video has also surfaced that points out the similarities in both Beyonce and Lorella’s performances.
Before the accusations had the chance to spiral completely out of control, Beyonce sat down with AOL Music and admitted that her performance was influenced by the Italian singer.
BEYONCE TALKING YALL,,,,
My makeup artist showed me the performance of Lorella Cuccarini a year ago, and it inspired me so much. I then met with the talented people who worked on it. The technology and concept were so genius. Thank god for YouTube or I would have never been exposed to something so inspiring. I never worked so hard on anything in my life as that performance for the Billboard Awards.”
RIHANNA REMEMBER TO SAY U WAS “INSPIRED” AND EVERYTHING WILL BE JUST FINE.
BEYONCE SAYS OUT OF HER OWN MOUTH THAT
SHES THANKS GOD FOR YOUTUBE, READ IT FOR YOURSELF…
RIHANNA KEEP WATCHING YOUTUBE TO GET NEW IDEAS,,,,ROTF,,,,LMAO.
BEYONCE IS LOOKING ON YOUTUBE TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT HOW IN THE HELL RIHANNA GOT OVER
200MILLION VIEWS FOR WE FOUND LOVE
OVER 200MILLION FOR RUDE BOY
285 WHAT’S MY NAME
EMINEM AND RIH HAVE OVER 500MILLION VIEWS FOR
LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE….
DIAMONDS ALREADY OVER 150 MILLION YOUTUBE VIEWS, COUNTING.
WHILE DANCE FOR YOU GOT LESS THEN 35 MILLION I WONDER WHY?????????????????????????????
But the SAME people who worked with Lorella worked with Bey so EPIC FAIL!! NEXT!!
beyFRAUDULENTce’ should just come forward and admit that she is a FAKE B****!!!
1. She FAKED her pregnancy
2. She FAKED her UNCF donations.
3. She FAKED her “LIVE” performance.
4. SHE faked NOT having anything to do with the disbandment of LeToya and LaTavia.
5. She FAKED not having stolen from BC Jean, Des’Ree, Amanda Pazzarolli/Loius Jones etc…
6. She FAKED her live Billboard, Oscar & VMA performances and DIDN’T sing live.
She probably FAKED being 31 – everyone knows this THEIVING H** is 45 etc…
RATthew knowles and RANCIDina Knowles probably ain’t even her parents.
Will Rihanna admit:
1) She faked the orgasm that got her her record deal?
2) She asked Chris Brown to beat her ass, so she could play the victim card?
3) She pretends to be a star when in reality it’s her puppeteers that control her every move?
LMAO @ THE PRESSED SOULS.
IT MUST REALLY SUCK THAT BEYONCE IS GETTING ALL THE MEDIA COVERAGE AND PRESS THAT YOUR FAVES WISH THEY COULD GET , JUST TO SELL THEIR FLOP ALBUMS. LOL!
LOL @ THE SILLY NOTION OF BEYONCE BEING OVER. WHEN SHE GOT TONS OF CELEBRITIES COMING TO HER SUPPORT. I MEAN SHE GOT THE MEDIA ANTICIPATING & AWAITING HER RESPONSE. MEANWHILE ANTICIPATION IS BUILDING UP FOR SUPERBOWL. WHILE YOUR FAVE IS STILL AT HOME, POSTING INSTGRAM PICS OF HERSELF DOING DRUGS, FLASHING HER TITS AND RUNNING AN ABUSIVE BOYFRIEND, THATDON’T WANT HER. BEYONCE STAY WINNING!

This site is such a hateful place, only because yall stay up on some of Mariah’s things do I still visit this site. Other than that the respect for this site is non existing because of the hate it promotes.

Sam is on Beyphomet’s payroll, so of course he has to praise her and shade Rihanna in order to keep those checks coming in.
THE TRUTH IS FINALLY GETTING AROUND. HATERS ACCEPT YOUR DOOM! I KNOW THE TRUTH IS TOUGH PILL TO SWALLOW.
Beyonce DIDN’T mime at the inauguration. BUT…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tCNth-N9Z0&feature=player_embedded
…she did sing along with a pre-recorded backing.
The video above clearly shows Beyonce singing live at President Obama’s inauguration, despite the fact that many news outlets are claiming she mimed.
You can also clearly hear the pre-recorded backing in the video, made earlier in case of technical problems. (Thanks to Daniel Holter for posting a heads-up on this video.)
But the live vocal is the one most people heard.
The evidence
You can tell by listening carefully to the two performances audible in the video above and comparing them to this live feed:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-DSFrGnQrk&feature=player_embedded
For more clues that she sang live, listen for these points:
When she starts singing, her voice is hard to hear – the microphone gain is too low. The sound-man quickly corrects this – but if we were listening to a recording this wouldn’t happen – in fact back-up recordings are used to solve exactly this kind of problem.
At 1’16? in the video above, she tilts her head slightly closer to the mic and the sound gets suddenly more bassy. This is because of an acoustic effect known as the “proximity effect”.
At 1’52? she takes out one of her earpieces. Some people are citing this as more evidence she was lip-syncing, but in fact it’s what singers do when they’re having trouble hearing the pitch of their own voice through the earpiece. By taking it out, she can hear her own voice more clearly and sing in tune more easily. (In fact, if the pre-recorded vocal was going to her earpiece, she may well have been finding it distracting.)
At 2’17? she smiles slightly, and you can hear this “smile” in her voice.
None of these clues are conclusive, but to fake all of them, plus the details of the performance itself, would make Beyonce the best lip-sync artist in the world !
And anyone who has heard her sing live knows that’s not where her true talents lie…
So why are people saying Beyonce mimed ?
Because the band did mime.
Why ? Probably because it can be next to impossible for a large group of musicians to play in tune in extremely hot or cold temperatures – and it was cold at the inauguration.
The original “reports” were confirmed by players in the band, who said that Beyonce asked for the pre-recorded backing, and that’s almost certainly true. (The band has since issued a formal statement saying that “no one in the Marine Band is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded.”)
Any singer would find it seriously difficult to put on a great performance to a band that was struggling to play in tune, and for something this high-profile it’s understandable that you’d want the best chance to get it right.
But the video at the top of this post uses both audio feeds, probably by mistake, and combined with the other clues leaves me in no doubt that Beyonce sang live – and that her live performance is what most people heard.
Update:
So, it’s been 24 hours and Beyonce’s team still haven’t made any comment – meanwhile CNN are quoting an inauguration official who says she decided to use the pre-recorded version the night before.
There are several different versions of the video available, all with slightly different sound – how can this be ? Why are there two voices audible on some versions, and not on others ?
The answer is that it’s standard practise at an event like this for all the audio to be made available to broadcasters, so that each of them can do their own mix – their own blend of presenters, music and ambient crowd noise.
All of which makes it very difficult to know exactly what we’re hearing! And some people are even claiming that Beyonce’s mic wasn’t switched on at all.
Plot thickening
But here’s a clue I haven’t mentioned before – in the first WSJ clip above, you can clearly hear wind noise on the mic (and Beyonce’s scarf flapping) at 0’36?. This proves the mic was live – and that it was used in this broadcast, at least.
You can hear the same thing in other versions, for example here – and in the video on Beyonce’s blog, too, at 0’48? – even though this version has been cleaned up, with added reverb and compression, and the wind noise has been reduced.
Conclusion
My verdict ?
The mic was live
Beyonce sang
Whether she wanted it or not, the live mic sound was made available and used in many, if not all of the broadcasts
Her performance was every bit as good as the “safety” pre-record – in fact it was so close that it’s hard to tell them apart !”
We have no way of knowing exactly why Beyonce chose to use the recorded backing, or if she really wanted us to hear her live performance. But we did – and it was great.
She didn’t mime, she sang great – what’s all the fuss about ?
http://productionadvice.co.uk/beyonce-didnt-lip-sync-at-the-inauguration-but/
SHE IS JUST A STUDIO SINGER…. 🙁
OH COME ON! How you as a fellow lamb say such a ridiculous thing? Mariah is the definition of studio singer from her own admission. Beyonce is a great live performer who finally had a flub and everyone is making too big a deal about it.
BUT SHE DIDNT SING LIVE THO!!! KELLY DID!!! NO ONE HAD A BACKTRACK TAPE BUT BEYONCE!!! ARETHA SANG LIVE AND IT WAS MUCH COLDER THAT DAY! IM NOT SHADING HER IM JUST NOT GONNA STAN FOR THE HIVES EXCUSES!! IF KELLY SANG LIVE SO CAN YOUR SO CALLED KING IJS
But she was singing THE NATIONAL ANTHEM which is the biggest song there, so she was probably encouraged to use a pre recording more than other people.
FACT OF THE MATTER IS SIMPLE IF KELLY DID IT
WITHOUT HER BACKING THEN WHY COULDN’T BEYONCE????????? DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH!!!!
AND DO LOREAL KNOW THAT BEYONCE’S HIR IS LOOKING LIKE SHE JUST LANDED THERE TO SING OFF A DAM BROOM HANDLE AND NOT HER OWN 40 MILLION DOLLAR JET SHE BOUGHT LIPS FOR FATHERS DAY!
BOUGHT THAT TRICK A 40 MILLION DOLLAR JET AND HER DAD SHE GOT RID OF HIM ,,, DUUUUUUUUUUUUH!!! THAT’S RIGHT BEYONCE WE
ALL KNOW YO ASS IS AS DUMB AS A LOAD OF ROCKS,,,,
regardless…Kelly Clarkson slayed… 🙂
THE BEY-H.I.V BETTER GET READY TO SYNC ALONG WITH BEYFRAUD ! ‘ALL MY SYNCING LADIES, ALL MY SYNCING LADIES, NOW PUT YOUR HAND UP!’

From Michael Jackson to Beyoncé, a Brief History of Lip Syncing
Comment Now Follow Comments
Who knew that four days later, people would still be arguing about whether or not Beyoncé lip synced the National Anthem at the Inauguration? Well, this is America and we love our celebrity drama.
While there are those who swear to the lip syncing, there are a growing number in the “she sang live” camp, including Mike Doughty (who I once interviewed for
Sound System), who wrote a piece for Slate explaining why he believes the anthem was sung live.
I’ve done a bunch of lip-syncing, in music videos, and it’s very easy to spot. Anyone who performs in, shoots, or edits music videos can see the tiny, observable latency endemic to lip-syncing. Beyoncé either sang live, or she’s the most gifted lip-syncer in the history of humanity.
In the end, it really doesn’t matter to anyone but Beyoncé’s reputation if she faked singing. While I would love to see her vindicated and have Mike Doughty’s points proved, in the end, no harm was done to anyone regardless of how the song was performed. The issue of the lip syncing is nothing more than entertainment distraction and it’s not a new one. It goes back a long way, back to the early days of variety shows (did you think the Beatles were singing live on those shows?) and is, whether you recognize it or not, weaved throughout our musical entertainment history, for better or worse. Here are some “great” lip syncing performances throughout the ages.
Ine of the most famous lip-syncing scandals ever, Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan – better known as Milli Vanilli – were outed as lip -syncers during a 1990 concert when their pre-recorded track started skipping. When it was revealed they didn’t even sing on their studio albums, they returned their Grammys and quickly fell from grace. Their names are now synonymous with faking it.
Ashlee Simpson was outed during a 2004 Saturday Night Live performance when her backing track played a song different from the one she was singing. She tried to play it off by awkwardly dancing around the stage, but was the laughing stock of the entertainment world for a few days.
At the 2007 BET awards, 50 Cent stumbled through his performance, missing cues and then being thrown for a loop when his music started looping instead of playing the vocals.
In 1983, Michael Jackson lip synced his way through “Billi Jean” during a Motown anniversary special on television. His performance of the song was still so great, no one seemed to care he wasn’t really singing.
In an August 2003 show at Madison Square Garden, R. Kelly put down his mic during a song and let the pre-recorded track go on singing. On purpose. The audience supposedly responded positively.
At Super Bowl XLIII, Jennifer Hudson lip-synced the National Anthem because the producer said there were too many “variables” to do the song live.
During this partially lip-synced performance on Good Morning America, Mariah Carey actually sings the words “Stop singing my part, baby” to a backup singer.
Britney Spears, a repeat offender of lip-syncing crime, made her fake vocals so obvious during an Australian concert that fans walked out.
Not only did Luciano Pavarotti lip sync ”Nessun Dorma” during the opening ceremony of the 2006 Winter Olympics, but the orchestra and conductor faked it as well.
I’ll venture to say there are more instance of lip-syncing than you or I will ever know about. Makes you wonder how many performances you enjoyed that weren’t as live as you thought. And if you’re like me it also makes you wonder, “So what?”
Though I’m now firmly in Mike Doughty’s camp on whether or not Beyoncé lip-synced the National Anthem, the fact is I thoroughly enjoyed her performance. Finding out she recorded it earlier wouldn’t take away from that moment of enjoyment I had while watching it on tv.
The fact that people are complaining they were “sold a bill of goods” and given something else makes one wonder where are priorities are. Maybe if you paid for a live show and got a pre-recorded one you’d have a legitimate complaint. But a television performance of a song that was just one small part of a larger program? Let it go.
Hopefully, we’ll get a definitive statement from the Beyoncé camp on this, then we can go back to enjoying that Destiny’s Child reunion.
her secret is out.. Kelly Clarkson slayed…too late. 🙂
Kelly Clarkson slayed the dust out of her shoes!
Beyonce is a liar. Shame …sad flop b****.
MICHAEL NEVER THOUGHT HE WAS JESUS, MJ NEVER DOGGED THE ICONIC LEGENDS WHO CAME BEFORE HIM AND NEITHER DID HIS CAZILLION OF FANS,,,,
I’m so glad Beyonce is finally getting the backlash she deserves. After all the stealing, lying and support of tyrannical dictators, its good to know that people are finally catching up with her. Just yesterday Howard Stern likened her to Lance Armstrong. She’s talented but completely disingenuous
RIP MS. FAKEY FAKEY….GO HOME AND SPIT OUT MORE GORRILA BABIES
🙁
I SING LIVE 🙂
Yes hon..you are brave and not like that studio singer.. 😉
That Run the hood performance is a hot mess, her choreo is all over the place, shes dancing like a wild dog, the song is a mess, her outfit is rachet, she looks like an agressive mexican who just got his burrito stolen…. lord have mercy .
coming from a NAVI will make you the laugh of the day , we should not be the ones to judge anyone’s performance cuz , let’s be honest , Rihanna sucks live most of the time.

Anyway cant wait for Beyonces superbowl shes gonna blow everyone outta the water with this 15 mins especially because of whats happening!

a lot of b****** bothered to take it to blogs to vent ?
and the navi fell for it again ?
and she is getting mad publicity and everyone is talking ? and everyone is giving a f*** about it as if it mattered more than the actual inauguration ?
and they forgot that it is all beyonce’s voice and no one else ?
now that is a BOSS b****, get those checks motha, she just knows what the f*** she’s doing unlike the woman in my AVI.
can’t wait for her performance at the SB , and that Billboard performance is one of the best performances of all times to me.
This^^
It doesn’t matter anyway, Kelly Clarkson slayed her ass! 😉
Because of you >>> careers
speaking of careers , can you count from 1 to 16 , h** ?
But still, kelly clarkson aint gonna be remebered in 10 years time.
@Pop Royality Yes I can h**, but can you make up your mind? I remember you were insulting Beyonce and calling her fake now you lick her ass. You are a dumb and fake h** so don’t even come for me because I’ll drag you ass.
@Kyle
Wrong, wrong, wrong. She’s ll always be the most popular musician from a music contest. She always gets praised for her vocals and her music is great.
On the other hand, “Beautiful Ones / S** on Fire” slays any Kelly performance
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibgrsYD_Flc
No boo, a lot of people wont remember these music contestants. Point Blank Period.
Blah blah blah.
Real Talk.. and instead of comment on the controversy, she gets right back to business
boring…flush it !
Yas Beyonce you go gorrl!!!
Beyonce better make them sign contracts so they can shut their mouth I am not here for leaks this era.I am so exicted!
I hope she falls down…….
And whos talkin about Rihanna now?… She craves for that kind of controversial headline news but just dont get it cos shes so predictable. Beyonces back, next topic: the superbowl!
This was in fact a big publicity stunt, I hope you are aware of that. Jay Z is notorious for stunts and they donated a hefty sum to the presidential campaign. Beyonce no shade is on a Jackson level of fame and he made the same headlines. However Jay Z and co are creating her demise, she will end because of all this negative attention.
Cant seem to remember her last hit song… 🙁
Diamond…. 🙂
whos choreo did she steal from youtube this time? you KNOW its gonna come out after the sb that she ripped off some “unknown” foreign artist.
This time she’s ripping the f*** outta your pantyhose and making you pregnant. Get ready!
LMAO!!! @لــحــمــ
THE END IS NEAR……
Good..cant wait. 😉
DRUM ROLL… Haters had a field day with the lipping s***, now its time to b**** slap them with this superbowl performamce! Beyonce shares pictures of her rehearsing, Rihanna shows pictures of her smoking weed. Enough said.
I hope she falls…
These kiddies here spamming and trolling, replying to themselves aint fooling nobody.
Beyonce will be booed..my body is so ready.

My body is ready.
your body like Aretha ??? 🙁

It’s great to see Beyonce working her craft. You see so many pictures and instagrams of artists nowadays doing everything EXCEPT rehearsing… Beyonce is a hard working woman and I love to see someone so talented strive for excellence. Plus she looks good as hell! I’m definitely excited to see what she brings this year!
Your fav could never 😉

You tried, tho. Good for you
LMAO is that the best you’ve got. You are trying so hard.Come back when Beyonce releases a great song like Because of You, Since U Been Gone, Behind These Hazel Eyes, Addicted, because her music is generic mess.
Kelly >> Beyonce vocally
She doesn’t need any of those Avril Lavigne-reject songs, she’s already got “Listen”, “Amor Gitano”, “If I Were a Boy”, “Save the Hero”, “Scared of Lonley”, “Ave Maria”, “1+1”, “I Care”, “Love on Top”.
And she slays Kelly vocally and musically.
BTW, I wasn’t giving you “the best I got”, I just meant this’s not even the best vocal performance by her and yet it eats any Kelly performance for breakfast.
BTW, it’d be pretty appreciated if you give me the name of a “genric mess” song you know.
At least more genric than “Stronger” or “Catch My Breath”

Yup, that’s why Kelly’s soprano, your fav is mezzo-soprano, so Kelly’s voice is more powerful. I didn’t give the Kelly’s best performance either, but it is better than almost every performance of your fav. As usual, delusional Beyhive fan.
She doesn’t need any of those Avril Lavigne-reject songs, she’s already got “Listen”, “Amor Gitano”, “If I Were a Boy”, “Save the Hero”, “Scared of Lonley”, “Ave Maria”, “1+1″, “I Care”, “Love on Top”.
Breakaway (song) was written by Avril Lavigne and she gave it to Kelly. But with Avril Lavigne-reject songs (like you said) Breakaway has sold 11-12 million copies worldwide, DIL has yet to see that number, and don’t try with 11 million because it’s not there, it’s stuck between 8-9 million and Breakaway slayed it in every single market.

You are right Likica, she can do better.
Halle thanks for tying, not even close 😉
All this is down to opinion. Stop arguing people, there was no need to post the original video because Beyoncé has put on some brilliant performances just like Kelly has. Just leave it please and stop putting talented women up against eachother when they clearly respect eachother.
@Hmmm I agree, but Beyonce fans exaggerate, they act like Beyonce is such a huge star and the best vocalist but she can’t score an album with 10 million copies. I guess their delusional asses think that 4 is an iconic album but it’s not even close. Anyway, for the record, Kelly is soprano, Beyonce is mezzo-soprano so Kelly’s voice is more powerful.
But you didn’t need to say ‘your fave could never’ that’s asking for it. Just let Kellys performance speak for itself. And Dangerously in Love has sold 11 million according to RIAA just to add. Im not going to get into the whole singing debate because what you are classed as doesn’t make you a better vocalist, Adele is a contralto with limited range but still has one of the best voices, Leona Lewis is also a mezzo soprano. I respect Kelly Clarkson and Beyonces voices for different reasons. Lets just keep it cute ok.
Ok honey, I appreciate your opinion, but DIL has not sold 11 million it is between 8-9 million. 😉 11 million are shipments, but sales no because Breakaway has sol 11-12 million and slayed DIL in every single market, impossible they are at the same number ;). I think that Adele is overrated, she’s ok but nothing special, Kelly and Beyonce are better vocalists than her.
“huge star and the best vocalist but she can’t score an album with 10 million copies.”
__________________________________________
“The Writing’s on the Wall” (1998) – 14 million
“Survivor” – 12 million
“Dangerously in Love” (2003) – 11 million
^^^ Not one album doubled digits, but 3 ^^^
And even if you count only solo albums, Bey outsold Kelly with less albums released. Both CD’s and DVD’s. In other words, as a Kelly stan, you got no much room to talk about “sales”.
Right?
LOL at your delusional ass, you had to bring DC’s numbers to make her look better. DIL HAS NOT SOLD 11 MILLION COPIES WORLDWIDE. Well, KELLY HAS SOLD 25 MILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE, pretty similar like Beyonce as a solo artist. She can still get #1 single and Catch My Breath has already outpeaked Run The World 😉 You mad?
Kelly didn’t use daddy like B to buy her Grammys, accolades. Her label didn’t support her when she pubblished My December, but yet she managed to sell 1.5 copies worldwide while Beyonce always gets it and she promotes her album everywhere. All of that and Beyonce can’t see Britney Spears’ numbers and she will never.
@Likica where is your proof that DIL has sold less that 10 mill? And don’t tell me no random website like Media Traffic everyone knows their numbers our outdated. RIAA>>>>>>>>everything else. When CREDIBLE sources quote how much DIL sold, they will take it from the record lables and RIAA and it stands at 11 mill so deal.
Honey Im sorry but when it comes to legacy and influence on pop culture in the long run theres no comparing the likes of Kelly Clarkson to Beyoncé. Im not even a massive Beyoncé fan.
LOL at your delusional ass, you had to bring DC’s numbers to make her look better.

Specially for a 2003 album, since they only counted CERTIFICATIONS until 2005.
Acc to MTV and million other sources, DIL has sold 11 million worldwide, and I find nothing THAT HARD to believe.

Can you explain me how could an album which has barely achieved any certifications worldwide have sold 11 million copies? Wikipedia has Breakaway at 12 million, Mediatraffic at 11, while DIL is at 11 according to Wiki, and 8 according to Mediatraffic? Obviously, Kelly slayed Beyonce everywhere with Breakaway and she scored more certifications and bigger sales, 3 million is a big difference honey, lets not pretend. This can easily prove that DIL has not sold 11 million copies worldwide. It was such a local album, it’s only at 6 million with final USA and UK sales, while Breakaway is at 7.8 with those two. Where DIL’s other 5 million come from, can I ask?

Dead at someone calling BeyFRAUD Armstrong a black woman, uhhhmm have you seen her skin tone lately? Home gurl is anything but black, she bleached all the black out of her system so let’s not.
BeyFRAUD will deliver the usual Tina Turner tribute act accompanied by having a seizure on stage and calling it dancing. BeyFRAUD will not deliver anything ground breaking, I mean what was her last hit? single ladies?? LMAO.
The only new thing Armstrong will bring to that superbowl performance is someone’s stolen idea, this b**** has no originality. I cannot wait for the next phase in the BeyFRAUD exposure game now that the media has all its guns aimed at her, bring on the superbowl.
As if Rihanna’s skin isn’t even lighter? 🙄
I know I’m not about to argue with you about the “She Is Chreole And Not Black” tea, she remains much more respected by the Black community AND more popular among them than your fave will ever.
And girl what’s with that Tina Turner flopped shade? And what else do you want her to do at the Superbowl? Deliver a “Where Have You Been” – type of choreography?
Shake her legs, pat her p****, finger herself over and do the stiffest, funnies s*** ever???
^^^ That’s your own vision of “dancing”??
And I swear to God I don’t give a f*** on your deadly obsession with “hits” and $1 digital tracks and their peak positions, specially that Beyonce has much more important stuff in her career than that, such as multi-platinum, super-selling albums and DVD’s, high-grossing world tours, (at which she beats Rihanna to death), but to answer your silly question : “TELEPHONE” was her last smash hit, not “Single Ladies”.
Why do I have a feeling she’s taking some s*** from Michael Jackson Superbowl and this is it concert? She don’t even have to perform yet I can already tell she took some s*** she trying her best to out do Madonnas intro
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!
Beysus must dig her hole deeper and never come out or she will be dragged the same way fraudyonce is being dragged..
#HoesWillBeDragged!!!
Lets not bring janet jackson aka ‘THE ICON’ into this beyonce conversation.
Cant wait! She looks like shes gettin ready to kill like ok b****** you wanna try me, ill SHOW u how its done. Haha love her, her MULTI talent, and her determination.
Lol at the same people posting in different names! Pathetic much!
She is talented though at least more talented than that navy s*** gimmick rhioena and if we dont like her what are we doin in her post now i see it is pathetic cos i admit the star spangled rendition was great and it is yet confirmed that she lipped it. So i admit i am obssesed my opinion on the blog changes notin cos she can blow rhioe,katty and other non singin pop girl to another planet.
And navy we are the most pathetic on this blog we thumb comment from bey fan down but thumb up the -ve ones even on are post pressed.
She lied about her age too…. 🙁
I think Beyonce is the only artist out now that get compared to legend and young art like riri,katy,gaga etc and i think that is cos she has what it takes and her achievement with just 4 album unlike rhioe 7 in 7 years
Not really Usher and CB get compared to MJ all the time.
When MJ died, only person everyone thought of who could’ve did and epic tribute was CB. So no Beyonce isn’t the only artist compare to past legends.
MJ isn’t the only the only legend so try again.
Tell that to beyonce and her pathetic camp. They’re always comparing her to michael jackson like he’s the only legend .. So please GTFOHWTBS.
mariah is the real lipping queen her p**** stank her face saggy
I don’t care, I like this girl. I wouldn’t put myself in the Hive but I rate her highly and am not shallow enough to let one incident cloud my mind because people can throw in all the accusations, criticisms and mistakes she’s made they want but when it comes down to do it, the girl can sing, dance and entertain and she does it well. Shes multi-faceted and competative, not complacent. Talent is what prevails in the end. People can critique however they want, all popstars have gone through heavy criticism at some stage but when majority look back at her performances in the future theres no denying shes great at what she does.
I agree.
Yes, just like their thieving fav, Armstrong’s stans are now STEALING my identity lmao. I guess they learned from their flop fav who cannot get a hit, how to be a shameless conniving thief.
Yasss, steal my identity s*** hive, yass steal it.
I guess they learned from their flop fav who has 22 Top5 hits and sold 70 million albums and DVD’s in 15 years how to be a shameless conniving thief

@BEYFRAUD,,,PREACH, PREACH,,
Y’all still gon’ watch the SB Halftime even though y’all on here talkin s***. Dear Nazi’s……Oh my bad I mean’t Navy(SlutMonkeys) pull out the notepad and pen and take notes b/c ya fave could and will NEVER headline the SB Halftime show even if she sucked off the chairman of the SB. Y’all are clearly Bey fans cause y’all give her more attention than ya own fave DUMDASSES
Beyonce is a great performer, but the HIVE made her out to be super human and now they’re paying for it. I’ve told people for years that she lipped her performances, while people were touting her as the only artist who can sing and dance simutaneously.
Really?? How are you avoiding all the original high notes to your ballads but in the next minute you’re hitting all the high notes on your uptempos while dancing. It just never added up..Her last performance at Jay’s concert shows how she really struggles singing live through performances.
Needless to say, this superbowl should be interesting.
she has no current hits on Billboard…shame shame shame…
This!!!^^^^ if the hive never put her on this GOD like and KING like throne she wouldn’t be the most hated female artist on the Internet and she wouldn’t bashed by other stan bases Imo her stans are gonna cause her to fall and flop
And she just gets right back to work, instead of trying to justify herself and comment. Love Bey, shes so professional.
I think the lip sync controversy is just for publicity cos the woman that said she lip it has no business with her and nobody asked her whether the perf was lipped or not but if she did lip whick has been proven wrong by a uk music engr and other sources then she has that star power cos hardly do u see a legend( aretha), ur comtemporaries like a keys, jlo,william,rhime etc defending you.
I also like the way she handles controvesy baby bump and this she wont feed the press but riri would have put them back in place, but i wish she will clear this up.
No because no matter what Beyonce says people are always going to have the opposite argument. At first I though the same, but then I thought you know what its not really not going to make any difference, people already have their minds made up. Just like that raw video her vocals came out and a professional sound engineer confirmed she sang live, nobody wants to hear it. She might aswell just focus on her next performance.
*thought
she is vile liar manipulator..b**** 🙁
Cant wait for this. I wish it was longer than 15 mins though, and Im still not totally here for the DC girls joining her. But whatever Im sure she’ll put on a great show.
To the b**** that copied my name please stop and find someone else name to torture smh
Why the f*** must Kelly Rowland be a part of this mess? Kelly have to stay away from Beyonce. Everytime I google KR I have to read articles about this B****!!
She’s giving me fuckloads of life on daily and the new era hasn’t even hasn’t even started.
You Go Momma B****. I’m high on you at the moment.
Who cares if she didn’t sing live. If anyone is questioning Beyonce’s vocal ability because of this, you’re either deaf or a dumbass. Some of the biggest and best singers in the last 25 years have used a pre recorded backing track. Whitney Houston did it at the SB. Beyonce can obviously sing. She has done so live many times. It was HER voice. I’m looking forward to seeing her and Destiny’s Child at the SB.
I’m pretty sure ppl will still watch the Superbowl without Beyonce hello its the SUPERBOWL her ass ain’t that special the main event is the game!!
Single Ladies is the song opener….YUCKHY !!!!! 🙁
cant remember her top 5 hits on Billboard.
There are some idiots on this post. Saying Beyonce is over? When has anyone’s career ended after they lip synched to THEIR OWN voice?
Yes, she is done…like Janet !!!!!!
SHUT THE F*** UP JANET WAS BLACK-BALLED AND RACIALLY ATTACKED OVER THAT PETTY ASS NIPPLE INCIDENT.BEING A JACKSON IS ALREADY HARD ENOUGH FOR HER CAUSE OF HATING M************ LIKE YOU.
This must be the worst Superbowl ever… 🙁
BEYONCE IS A DISGUSTING VILE P**…..
I hate this b**** even more now… lets her flop !!!!!!!!!!
*******cant stand this fake puppet*******
🙁 time to boycott this stripper …
YA’LL JUST MAD THAT YOU’RE FAV’S ALBUM IS OUT AND IS GETTING NO PRESS AT ALL!!! WEATHER IT’S GOOD OR BAD SHE’S NOT GETTING ANY AT ALL!!!!!
YOU’RE MAD THAT BEYONCE BLINKS AND THE MEDIA FLOCKS TO HER!!
RIHANNA IS A SO SO ARTIST
BEYONCE’S TALENT SPEAKS FOR IT’S SELF
AND ON FEB 3 YOU WILL REALIZE THAT YOU’VE BEEN PLAYING FOR THE WRONG TEAM…. AND EVERYONE AND EVERY BLOG SITE SHE WILL BE THE #1 TOPIC
WHILE RIH WILL BE LEFT WITH WHAT HER LEGACY IS…. #NOTHING
Um I’m sorry but RIHANNA is already in the history books with madonna and mj with her record breaking hits and she is. Just 24 and unapologetic is still number 1 worldwide album tho just Cu’s she ain’t number 1 on us billboards chart she is on the global charts ins. But yes you have your opinions tho

I HEARD SHES PERFORMING NUCLEAR NO GOD
That what the article I posted said. 🙁
Same s*** different day.
The navy worships Beyonce on the low like their drugged out worn out p**** having fave. Did you see how they rushed to this post like usual? Beyonce will be fine. You idiots realize that the internet hating does not speak for majority of the public. There are about 360 Million people in the united states. The internet users commenting dont even make up a solid 15% idiots!Let’s talk about how her national anthem wasn’t even her best and still slayed Rihanna vocally on anything she did. Breakaway is the only album that Kelly Clarkson had that was truly successful. Beyonce>Kelly.
Lets not even go there… Vocally Beyonce rips her a new one. So really navy use her as your arguement because you can’t use your fave when it comes to actual talent. Again Beyonce will be fine. What’s sad is that the navy is commenting and then responding to themselves lol. And even if her last top 10 in the us was in 2009 how come with 5#1’s does she come so close to rihannna who has 12 in terms of weeks of being there? Add DC’s numbers and she has seen more weeks than Kelly Clarkson and Rihanna put together at number one. Because the real frauds are def jam with payola,Rihanna for calling herself a singer and her delusional fans for spamming every comment board hoping to see Beyonce fail. When she isn’t supposed to even be a threat 🙂
I sung live… STFU

Where is Beyonce on the list? Isn’t she supposed to be bigger seller?
I see you can’t read. I said Weeks at number one( as in singles). Plus they only true source for sales etc is Nielson Soundscan not media traffic. You’re a band wagon fan so you’re dismissed.
LOL, now I don’t know if she is drugged out (media generated bullsh** she smokes home rolled cigarettes from her island actually) or if her p*ssy is worn out but the girl does sing live and I think that’ think that’s the point!
Are you kidding me? She should lip it. Beyawnce sings live most of the time. Even with that she still sings WAY better than rihanna. Since you felt the need to reply…Let’s talk about your fave chris lipping for life in all of his performances. Get the f*** outta here with that rolling cigarettes bs. People don’t roll cigarettes anymore. I have no problem with tree(GOD put it here) smoke it. It’s less dangerous than cigarettes. But don’t sit here and say she isnt doing it when she says so via twitter all the time. As far as her h** status you’re right about that one we dont actually know.

Pop Royalty
January 25, 2013 at 8:04 am
that Billboard performance is one of the best performances of all times to me.
OMG, i don’t even know what to say.
Wow….I’ve never been big on Beyonce, she has good music but I’ve never been over the top for her. BUT, the people on this site have to be the most hateful, spiteful, ignorant pieces of sh*t I’ve ever come across in my 21 years of life. First of all, ya’ll wanna praise and call so and so a “queen” when they are topping the charts aka Rihanna, but let a b*tch fade out a bit AS DO ALL CELEBRITIES and ya’ll wanna drag them to hell and back. I’m sorry, but gay people are the worst for this type of sh*t, ALWAYS hating and being negative towards a FEMALE who’s doing what she wants to do. SO the f*ck what the b*tch lip sync, did Whitney NOT do the same for her incredible Superbowl performance?? Exactly, ya’ll didn’t say sh*t then. A lot of you “queens” aka gay boys could never accomplish anything this woman or any other “woman” in pop culture has, yet you want to call someone a flop, b*tch look at your life, no…look at your face for that matter and then you’ll see what a flop really means. Hating a*s Crenshaw hood rats is what a lot of you b*tchass h*** act like. Just a MONTH ago it was “all hail Queen B,” now look how quick f*gs jump ship. This sh*t is SO tiring. And the NERVE of these navy queens saying Rihanna performs better…..HHHHHAAAA! What the f*ck?! Ok, Im done with this sh*t. TGJ is officially a f*ckin joke. Again, I don’t stan for Beyonce but I’m so sick of the f*ckin hate and flip flopping, how many times are you queens gonna say the same d*mn thing… –__–
Agreed!!!!!!!!!
For once i agree 1000000% with what you have to say lool
Lmao! beyonce finally gave you h*** something to talk about because other than that y’all had nothing to say about the queen, Navi know what bey capabilities are they’re just holding on to this “lip syncing” thing like this will be the demise of her career, lol. Was it the end of Whitney’s career? Hers was pre recorded as well, or how about Janet? She lipped all the time Especially the velvet rope tour, and the breast incident at the Super Bowl. And so many other greats, so all this so called “dragging” looks so desperate, y’all can keep hoping for bey’a career to end but it’ll never happen, no time soon anyways. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=OtUQVSLhVSg&feature=related back off to work h***, y’all should try it. TTYL
She will slay! The king is here! Damn I feel it!
SHE WILL SLAY
she did sing along with a pre-recorded backing.
The video above clearly shows Beyonce singing live at President Obama’s inauguration, despite the fact that many news outlets are claiming she mimed.
You can also clearly hear the pre-recorded backing in the video, made earlier in case of technical problems. (Thanks to Daniel Holter for posting a heads-up on this video.)
But the live vocal is the one most people heard.
The evidence
You can tell by listening carefully to the two performances audible in the video above and comparing them to this live feed:
For more clues that she sang live, listen for these points:
1.When she starts singing, her voice is hard to hear – the microphone gain is too low. The sound-man quickly corrects this – but if we were listening to a recording this wouldn’t happen – in fact back-up recordings are used to solve exactly this kind of problem.
2.At 1’16″ in the video above, she tilts her head slightly closer to the mic and the sound gets suddenly more bassy. This is because of an acoustic effect known as the “proximity effect”.
3.At 1’52″ she takes out one of her earpieces. Some people are citing this as more evidence she was lip-syncing, but in fact it’s what singers do when they’re having trouble hearing the pitch of their own voice through the earpiece. By taking it out, she can hear her own voice more clearly and sing in tune more easily. (In fact, if the pre-recorded vocal was going to her earpiece, she may well have been finding it distracting.)
4.At 2’17″ she smiles slightly, and you can hear this “smile” in her voice.
None of these clues are conclusive, but to fake all of them, plus the details of the performance itself, would make Beyonce the best lip-sync artist in the world !
And anyone who has heard her sing live knows that’s not where her true talents lie…
[Update – see below for more…]
So why are people saying Beyonce mimed ?
Because the band did mime.
Why ? Apparently Beyonce hadn’t been able to rehearse with the band, and wanted the security of using the version she had certainly been using to practise in the run-up. Or perhaps because it can be next to impossible for a large group of musicians to play in tune in extremely hot or cold temperatures – and it was cold at the inauguration.
The original reports were “confirmed” by representatives of the band, who said that Beyonce asked for the pre-recorded backing, and that’s almost certainly true. (The band has since issued a formal statement saying that “no one in the Marine Band is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded.”)
Any singer would find it seriously difficult to put on a great performance to a band that was struggling to play in tune, and for something this high-profile it’s understandable that you’d want the best chance to get it right.
But the video at the top of this post uses both audio feeds, probably by mistake, and combined with the other clues leaves me in no doubt that Beyonce sang live – and that her live performance is what most people heard.
Update:
So, it’s been 24 hours and Beyonce’s team still haven’t made any comment – meanwhile CNN are quoting an inauguration official who says she decided to use the pre-recorded version the night before.
There are several different versions of the video available, all with slightly different sound – how can this be ? Why are there two voices audible on some versions, and not on others ?
The answer is that it’s standard practise at an event like this for all the audio to be made available to broadcasters, so that each of them can do their own mix – their own blend of presenters, music and ambient crowd noise.
All of which makes it very difficult to know exactly what we’re hearing! And some people are even claiming that Beyonce’s mic wasn’t switched on at all.
Plot thickening
But here’s a clue I haven’t mentioned before – in the first WSJ clip above, you can clearly hear wind noise on the mic (and Beyonce’s scarf flapping) at 0’36″. This proves the mic was live – and that it was used in this broadcast, at least.
And you can hear the same thing in other versions, crucially in the video on Beyonce’s blog, too, at 0’48″ – even though this version has been cleaned up to be the least “live-sounding”, with reverb and compression, and the wind noise reduced.
Conclusion
My verdict ?
◦The mic was live
◦Beyonce sang
◦Whether she wanted it or not, the live mic sound was made available and used in many, if not all of the broadcasts
◦Her performance was every bit as good as the “safety” pre-record – in fact it was so close that it’s hard to tell them apart !”
We have no way of knowing exactly why Beyonce chose to use the recorded backing, or if she really wanted us to hear her live performance. But we did – and it was great.
She didn’t mime, she sang great – what’s all the fuss about ?
Update 2: Confirmation !
I think there’s a reaction to all of this from Beyonce hidden towards the end of this post from US Magazine, and I think she confirms exactly what I’ve been saying in this post…?
“She did sing,” the source explains to Us [Magazine]. “There was a [pre-recorded] track, but Bey sang 100 percent.”
“[Using a pre-recorded track at live events] is very very common,” the source clarfies. “The track was only there as a backup.”
“And the source tells Us that Beyonce is … disappointed by the hubbub
They know she did, they just WANT to hate, just because…..
Oh Lord! Now people want to bring in Michael Jackson as well as Rihanna on this? People really need to stop bringing Michael, Whitney, Rihanna and whoever else up into this, to help deflect attention away from what Beyonce did. These people had nothing to do with what she did at that inauguration, so stop relying on what others did to make excuses for Beyonce. You guys don’t have any other reason to explain why she did what she did, so now you want to bring in what other artists have done, to try and soften the blow for Beyonce. Stop making excuses! She did what she did, and there is nothing that’s going to be able to change that. And, the sad thing about it is this: She will always be officially known as the first person to ever have lip synched at an Inauguration. What a way to make history Beyonce! *sarcasm*
Maybe now people will stop comparing her to Michael Jackson. They loved Michael too, but then they did everything to bring him down. Looks like the same thing is beginning to happen to Beyonce, slowly but surely. Since you guys want her to be the female Michael Jackson so badly, don’t be surprised if she starts getting treated like Michael was treated tool. Be careful what you ask for, because you just might get it.
*too
It’s just absolutely disgusting to me and so pitiful that Rihanna, I repeat, Rihanna stans have some damn nerve and a whole lot of liquid courage bashing Beyonce. WTF? Y’all have to be smoking crack and young as hell. Beyonce has numerous amounts of videos of her practicing her songs and singing acapella, and she hits the notes spot on and effortlessly. Beyonce is a TRUE singer. She is someone who knows all the ins and outs of the art. WTF does Rihanna know about singing? Not a damn thing. She uses autotune in every single one of her songs and still sounds a hot, dying goat mess! Her LIVE performances are the worse. B**** is either pitchy, flat, out of key, or all of the above. She can’t dance… all she does is strip and humps onstage… she’s a pot and coke head… she’s been rumored to f*** rappers such as Meek Mills, Drake, J . Cole (aka a W****)… and her ass is claiming to be all about “THUG LIFE.” She’s the one who’s ghetto and a chicken head. I mean, how dare y’all try to say Beyonce can’t sing live, all she does is shakes her ass, and is fake, when Rihanna is all those things and more. Rihanna is the same dumbass who lied to the public, just to get sympathy sales, about moving on from getting her ass whooped from CB and being a role model for young girls, and goes and stalks him on Twitter, f**** him while he has a gf, and is now saying “I don’t give a f***.” Funny how y’all talking about how Rihanna sold more when B**** RELEASED 7 F****** ALBUMS, BUT BEYONCE ONLY RELEASED 4 AND THEY HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF ALBUMS SOLD! Plus, if Beyonce would release that Techno-Pop s*** too, she would be getting #1s like crazy, but she didn’t want to do that!
WOW THE NAVY IS PRESSED AS HELL ONCE AGAIN…
HAHAHAHA ITS FUNNY HOW THEY CRITICIZE BEY FOR USING A BACKING TRACK WHILE THEIR FAVORITE RIHOENNA CANT EVEN HIT A FREAKING NOTE RIGHT.. RIHOENNA USES AUTOTUNE AND ENDS UP PITCHY AND FLAT DURING HER LIVE PERFORMANCES……

I love you Beyonce <3
Nothing new from the Rihanna stans here. Same old pathetic hate with the same EXTREMELY TIRED shade… A few try to get all technical to mask the fact that what they are saying is still a pile of crap…
Say what u want, throw your petty insults at Bey all day everyday. At the end of the day, she is AND WILL FOREVER BE a better artist in EVERY way, than Rihanna. #fact
What the navy should look at is telling their fave to improve as an artist and not keep up the hopeless antiques and gimmicks…
