Budding icon Beyonce continues to build her brand outside of music after being named Ambassador for World Humanitarian Day 2012.
The singer, who today shoots a video for the cause (using her much loved hit ‘I Was Here’), took time out to visit the United Nations General Assembly Hall yesterday. There she met with General Secretary Ban Ki Moon, discussing her role as well as how to advance their collective cause.

One can’t but salute Beyonce’s movement. Be it from a musical, performance, or charitable angle, she is the blueprint of how to build a superstar – one generations to come can be proud of and emulate. More power to her!
Not being rude, as much as I am a fan of Beyonce music, I think its unfair that uneducated people have such high positions of power. She great and works hard but I honestly believe that things of this nature should be help by people who have gone through the educational system famous or not. But what do I know
being famous has nothing to do with education just to let u know
Didn’t say you have to be educated to be famous @Damn meant at least have some educational background to be an Ambassador. please next time read carefully
Everyone can do it!!! Is education and being a humanItary have anything in common? Dumb ass u do it coz ur heart send u to do no coz ur educated
@damn- omg u’s a stooooooopid b****
At least we see Beyonce doing things like speaking at the UN. Rihanna supposed to be an Ambassador but what have anybody seen her do but party.
Beyonce is way honour than R**** ambassador of the humanitary day that’s a world wide thing while R**** only got that small place Barbados to manage which doesn’t even have a million of population beyonce rocks slays R**** on everything
I couldn’t agree with you more! Having spent my years studying the right programs at university doing papers and assignments to enter master program in hopes to join one the world organisation such as the UN, UNHCR…. To have the likes of angelina Joliet ant beyonce stealing our post and Im left working at call centre is really really disturbing!
How’s beyonce stealing from u idiots go and apply for the job if u don’t get it then talk but since I haven’t apply leave beyonce alone!!! Beyonce a voice has more power than ur nameless h**
Beyonce and Angelina stealing your post? Obviously you didnt learn much in those years of study. Could you bring the publicity and star power to these causes that Angie and Beyonce do? EXACTLY Moron !
sttupid b**** please
I totally agree!
>Violent DOMESTIC ABUSER SEAN PENN is the current Ambassador to HATI!
>This uneducated, VIOLENT THUG, who beat TWO WIVES ( Madonna & Robin), has been given this opportunity because oF his 2009 Oscar win. He of course played the Gay slain San Francisco politician Harvey Milk. This movie role has ensured him undying respect and admiration on the arts of the media, the GLBT community & the feminist Women’s Groups who seem to turn a blinds eye to his many years of ABUSING MULTIPLE WHITE WOMEN! *** I love the hypocrisy -)
How’s this anything to do with beyonce u don’t make sense h** please keep being mad coz Beyonce is winning
Ah u shut up. Everything is not about Fist Brown. Screw him.
Who are you to judge somone’s education, we don’t know what Beyonce knows, and the fact that she is famous and has alot of power has nothing to do with her education, shes worked hard for 15 year (1997-Present) and it’s a shame that even when she does positive things like this people stick mock and criticize her.
AMEN **Meek Mill Voice**
This people don’t count in community instead of appreciating what someone s doing good for our world they bring negativity idiots get a life c**** and BeyHives don’t let this h*** get to u
@Damn you don’t know s***!
He she Is a c***
Having a formal education has nothing to do with being an ambassador for Nation Humanitarian Day. Humanitarian says it all. If she represent being a humanitarian then what’s the problem with her being the ambassador for it. How much or little formal education you have shouldn’t doesn’t matter. for something like this.
There is no course at UNi to study this s*** it’s ur heart that makes u give bak to ur people f*** education
Shut up h** educational programme uh everyone can do it an. Beyonce decided to give back to community what’s wrong with that?
Beyonce is plenty educated. Education is not confined to the walls of formal academic institutions. Besides Beyonce is using her celebrity here so i dont know why education has to be brought up. Fan indeed.
All the uneducated one are crying.. you b****** should go to college and have a degree. She is uneducated woman, who used her little talent and s** appeal to be famous. she should go to school like tyra banks, natalie portman,eva longoria etc
u can tell beyonce and education go different ways just look at her interviews not the talk show ones actual press interviews smh and to the beyonce stans yall sound extra stupid about the education you do NEED that in this world!! its easy for beyonce to say that in her songs because s*** she got money and make more than a doctor lawyer and teacher put together and then some!! but you no!! get your ass out of beyonce and take your ass to school!!
beautiful black queen doing her thing. i love seeing strong successful independent black women such and beyonce, rihanna, oprah being an inspiration and a shining beacon of hope for these young girls esp in he black community to achieve their goals regardless of the pressure they face from society on a daily basis. we need stop pulling each other down and end the animosity towards each other cause at the end of the day we’re all in this together.
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WIT U PPL I CANT BELIEVE THEY THUMBED U DOWN FOR WRITING SOMETHING POSITIVE THE BLACK PEOPLE ARE A HOPELESS CASE
that’s black people for you. they rather dwell on the negative rather than the positives.
@Navy – Nazi AKA HITLER – Looks to me that everyone is allowed to post on here anonymously so in that case – how are you for sure that it’s blacks thumbing down? And as much as white people drag and disrespect beyonce’s ass you need to go sit your swastika ass over in the corner somewhere. Black people always say good things about beyonce PERIOD, POINT BLANK.
And b**** stop pretending to be black. You’re literally on here talking back and forth to yourself. You posted that comment about beyonce out of pure spite. You thumbed it down yourself – only to turn around to throw black people under the bus and plus to get others to jump on the “Let’s Bash Black People Band-Wagon I guess that’s one trend that will never go out of fashion “YOU’RE NOT THAT CLEVER” IN-FACT you’re quite PATHETIC and obviously JEALOUS that beyonce was named “Ambassador for World Humanitarian” And to top it off she’s A BLACK WOMAN and it’s driving your ass up a wall – which clearly and concisely explains why you brought race into it. Stop trying to project your feelings of discomfort and jealousy onto black people. Because if you want to get “Technical About It” my friend, it is you who don’t like to see black people progress. You need to know that in order to reach a certain goal or position in life – you have to get off your RACIST ASS at some point in time and with that said stop trying to start s*** between black people on this damn blog!
Black people hates each other
ABSOLUTELY 🙂 BLACK WOMEN SHOULD BUILD EACH OTHER UP< NOT DOWN.
*nevermind the <* #TYPO
True but not rihanna and beyonce there is difference
wtf is is on her ears??!! gold nugget!!
That R**** followers get off here
BEYFAKE IS A FRAUD!!!
Beyonce is here doing something for a good cause and the only thing ppl can focus on are her damn earrings, wow some ppl are SO shallow. That’s right Bey, keep building/expanding your brand.

Epic..I already know.
LEARN HOW TO F****** READ YOU DOG S*** F*** YOU AND FAKEONCE GURL BYE
you haters don’t like her but y’all b the first ones checkin for her post just so you can say something negative. #OBSESSED LMFAO #NoLife
STFU beyonce is doing sooo well she is sooo great to step back and do something like that I love her so much
In their DC book, kelly said she and Bey got their GED. I dunno where they make rumours out from. Probably from the same source that told Bey bought her grammys, the millenium award was originally for Britney. Anything to undermine the woman’s achievements
what so great about a GED when you had the chance to go to high school and get a dipolma?? they didnt get popular until they was 18 anyway! they wasnt in a broken home or living in the projects they was living great in the suburbs alot of singers got dipolmas and college degrees and still was successful in music!
this girl sux, she is such an oppertunist, I cant take anything she does as being real she is just too pageanted and fake, that plastered on smile she puts on for any and everything just reads FALSE IMB.
Her vocals are real. Her snatching your fave basic b****’s wig is real. Her multi-platinum albums are real. Her Grammys are real.
Yeah real FAKE!!! have a seat over there >>>>>>
Her vocal won more awards more people than ur fake ass r****
@Spark but she’s rich! Lol!
Richer than there fav
Spell check is your friend, Corky.
this fake troll is now using her flop music for so called humanitarian efforts, YEAH RIGHT.
You FAIL. AGAIN. It isn’t the first time that Beyoncé uses her music and name to help other people. During Dangerously In Love, she support an H** campaing – including a concert – with Bono Vox (U2) and Nelson Mandela in Africa. She founded Survivor Foundation in 2005. During the I Am Tour and Beyoncé Experience Tour, she donated food and visited many children hospitals to support the them. You don’t know this, because she keeps them private. She doesn’t need to sell these stories to magazines and gossip blogs, post on Twitter or Facebook.
Bey always donate her music u idiots
I couldn’t agree with you more! Having spent my years studying the right programs at university doing papers and assignments to enter master program in hopes to join one the world organisation such as the UN, UNHCR…. To have the likes of angelina Joliet ant beyonce stealing our post and Im left working at call centre is really really disturbing!
U guys are disturbed

And what’s ur point
butter my ass and f*** me in it, doggy-style. *your
The world must be really going down hill if people can bash someone for doing something positive by trying to help those in need. It is absolutely a shame that instead of showing support for World Humanitarian Day, people would rather ignore the message that is trying to be sent and post heartless comments and call her fake. HATRED only goes to show how shallow and disrespectful the nay sayers really are. YOU HATE SOMEBODY BUT EVERTYTIME THEY’RE BLOGGED ABOUT YOU RUN TO THEIR POST JUST SO YOU CAN WRITE SOMETHING MEAN? Sounds more like OBSESSION. #FuckNegativePeople
#Preach
Some haters don’t make sense
it’s call ratchet and tacky.
SHE IS A FRAUD!!! BEYFLOP WILL ALWAYS GET THE SIDE EYE BECAUSE OF HER SHADY LYING STEALING PAST!! ITS THE ONLY 6 BEYFLOP MEMBERS ON HERE THAT BELIVE SHE IS SO POSITIVE!! THE REST OF THE WORLD THIS B**** WILL NEVER ESCAPE HER MANY LAWSUITS FAKE PREGANCY AND HER WHOLE SHADY FAMILY!!!!
Because it’s not about what they do as it is the person. They have a problem with Beyonce. She’s unrelateable to them cus she didnt have a Britney-like meltdown or act out downright trashy like Rihanna or make snide remarks about her colleagues like Pink. People like someone that’s gravely flawed so they wouldnt feel as pathetic about their own miserable lives. If Beyonce swears in her interviews, i bet u she’ll have less haters cus indecency = “real”
And YES majority of her haters are BLACK people, women in particular !!!
Those earings are a big NO NO.
It’s call fashion
Doesn’t make them any less fugly.
Yea why didn’t they asked your favs then? King B mother f*****! Y’all can hate all y’all too SHE WAS HERE! FORBES list b******!
Bey runs this motherfucking world
I hope you all are doing your parts as well. Help somebody help somebody!
Bey…. You couldn’t of gotten a new hairstyle before you went…. I know you’re trying to be black again since when you tried to be white 4 flopped but Black girls actually are capable of having nice hairstyles too!
Give up hater
Beyoncé got that STAR POWER !
Sooooo true that’s y we all loves her
Interesting That Harry B. ….isn’t smitten nor impressed nothing this ding bat does is sincere… It’s an agenda that will eventually benefit her budding bulls*** of a status!! Good day to all loonies calling this Woman… King B!!!
I’m a bit hesitant about Beyonce being in this position, she can barely form a proper sentence so not sure how this will play out, her star status will bring attention but her inability to articulate well will be a problem. Alicia Keys have been working with the UN for many years on A*** and Women issues, and she is a wonderful spokes person, Alicia is however a genius and graduated high school at age 16 and was admitted to Columbia so she is clearly a better person to be in a position like this. We shall see. Beyonce is just not what comes to mind when I think about an ambassador. Maybe it’s just me.
Stay negative bey s moving forward
I think Beyonce is a lovely choice for this position. She’s very positive and everything in her career reflects that. It’s in her music (she’s always had material that uplifted women and encouraged them to be proud and stand united). She’s worked with so many women (for charity and on a personal level). You can tell that she believe’s that there’s strength in numbers when it comes to making a difference. I think that’s why she’s so quick to lend her name and support to these causes(like the Stand Up To Cancer campaign/song for example).
Bey humble , she’s paid homage to so many of her idols (MJ, Whitney Houston, Donna Summer, Prince). You can tell that she has a genuine spirit. She respect those who’ve paved the way for her and open doors.
She’s virtuous , she didn’t have to give Taylor Swift the floor when accepting her VMA award after the big Kanye controversy. Still, she had no ego and she gave Taylor her moment to make her acceptance speech. Same with her defending Lauryn Hill after Mindless behavior inappropriately insulted her with a tasteless remark at the BET awards. She stands up for what’s right!
Beyonce clearly isn’t as selfish as some of you would like to make her out to be. If you can’t see that by now, you never will. Some of you can hold on to all the strife in the DC years (when they were teens). When Bey gave every member credit and a mention at the Billboard awards that was enough for me. That’s all you can do to right a wrong after you’ve moved on pass a low point in your life. It’s a dozen years later now (since Say My Name)! She didn’t have to be everyone’s savior. All of them branched out and was able to make a name for themselves individually.
It’s not too many women that carry themselves the way that Bey does in the industry and I wish that sometimes her own people(as well as any human being that’s incapable of being perfect throughout their entire life) could just cut her some slack occasionally.

Preach she is amazing
Beautifully worded. Part of why i love Beyonce. I know she is genuine because industry insiders, contemporaries, legends and rookies have nothing but the nicest words to say about her. She has displayed her virtues countless times too but the naysayers will always pass it off as fake. It’s ironic that none of these people have actually met her b4. One of her great attributes is her tenacity. She is never one to feed into negativity and that’s the best policy. If she did, it’d be the ammunition they need to go in harder. Her personal & professional lanes are on track and that’s all that matters.
Welch stopped by WXRT Chicago’s Live at Lollapalooza broadcast before her Sunday evening set to chat with Marty Lennartz about her tough tour schedule and some of the surreal moments of her time on the road.
It’s an odd phenomenon to hear the artists we gush about in turn gush about meeting their own musical heroes. It’s easy to forget that idolization isn’t exclusive to us music-loving plebes and that even the biggest and best musicians are human too. Welch’s voice takes on a dreamy vibe when she mentions meeting some of her favorite musicians.
“I’ve met lots of crazy people. I’ve danced with Paul McCartney at the Met Ball and I was dressed as David Bowie, with bleached eyebrows so that was sort of a bizarre moment in my life,” Welch laughs. “It was a joy meeting Jay-Z and Beyonce, which was surreal because they’re sort of the king and queen of music.”
While it sounds like Welch has had quite an eventful tour, she says that it has been an exhausting experience. Since her debut Lungs in 2009, Welch really hasn’t taken a break from touring.
“I think we’ve been tour for about three years and it’s pretty much what we do now. It does get to the stage where you just cry all the time,” Welch says.
And what does she have planned for the rest of the year?
“Tour, tour, tour, tour, tour, tour, tour. I don’t know, get committed or something.”

LETS FIX THIS COUNTRY FIRST AND THEN WORRY ABOUT THE WORLD!!! I HOPE YALL STANS DONT THINK SHE IS DOING THIS BECAUSE SHE CARES!!! SHE IS GETTING PAID TO DO THIS!!!
Good if it has positive consecuences
But really I´m sick of Beyonce fans trying to impose titles when it comes to her. Dear Sam an icon or musical legend doesn´t need to be “build” that way. The impact and sales huge way speak for themselves when it comes to icons. I don´t see how Beyonce is on that level with true unique icons and legends. It seems at 30 she losing lots of popularity already, so I don´t see it happening at this point
I agree the music legends from afore never tried to be “icons” it came natrually with their talent and success without having to force it.
Gone head Bey….. love that girl
I know those fans that were pissed that the cryptic message she left on her site the other day has nothing to do with Revel dvd or new era are now cheering her on lol. I’m not only a fan of her artistry but she as a person
she started to look like her camel devil-worshiping husband.
her attempts to stay relevant in the public eye never seem to work so far since announcing her ever-questionable pregnancy at VMAs. she still got some tricks in the pocket.
SO WHY DOES UR FAVE FLASH HER ASHY ASS AND SAGGY TITTIES IF ITS NOT TO STAY RELEVANT B**** STAY IN UR LANE
Madonna is the queen of devils worshiping.
Great!..a pregnancy imposter as Ambassador for World Humanitarian Day 2012.
WHAT A FUTURE WE HAVE!
wheres angelina jolie where you need her atleast she dressed like it wasn’t all about her and its just a regular person helping others. im sorry but beyonce whole outfit scream look at me its all about me! a great publicity stunt!
I am so happy that im part of the HIVE
The haters stay talkin!! But how is beyonce irrelevant again? And how is her legendary status forced?? It’s a shame how much u people envy this women.
