    She just continues to wow everyone and proves why she will always be #1. her live performances, stage presence, and talent is the one thing u can never take away from her. That’s why she’s still on top even after 17 years in the industry.

    And that all female band.. WOW! 😀

    • Gilbert September 1, 2013

      she may not be #1 in all social medias and s*** at the moment, but im sure when her album is out she will continue to reign. and another FACT, beyonce is #1 in terms of being the ULTIMATE PERFORMER. she is NO DOUBT the full package of our generation. you can hate her songs, videos, etc but in terms of being the TOP performer, i’d like to see your fav do a better job in their mid 30’s like she does 😉

    • RoyalKev September 1, 2013

      Amen!

      • ETONE September 1, 2013

        yes, she did not bust her face or humiliate herself at this show,

        The #1 ultimate lip sync copycat rip off thief of all time,

        GO THIEF BEYONCE

      • Tyler September 1, 2013

        @Etone

        B**** you should be he last one talking about humiliation or people lip syncing when ur own damn fave got exposed after punching a fan in the face with a foreign object. Better yet, I’d rather Beyoncé be know as a thief. Than a thief mostly known for being BATTERED, ABUSED, TALENTLESS, AND NOT BEING CAPABLE OF SHOWING UP TO HER OWN DAMN SHOWS ON TIME.

        GO RihABUSED!

    I was there last night and she really was amazing. I don’t even Stan for her but her show was really amazing. Also Emeli Sande performed really well and so did 2 Chainz.

    If you get the chance to go to this festival … BY ALL MEANS GO! Migel, Solange, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are some of the performers that I am looking forward to seeing on day 2.

    • BEYHIVE_MINAJ September 1, 2013

    And what did she sing for them?

    Single Ladies? Irreplaceable? Baby Boy? Crazy in Love?

    Bootylicious? Survivor?

    Independent Women?

    Sure … Old dried songs from centuries age and people are sick of watching her perform, but NOTHING NEW!!!!!

    So what sense does it make?

    • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 1, 2013

    • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 1, 2013

      don’t you have somethings as a little monster to do ? iTunes Festival to wait for ? Applause MV to watch for the 787909892222 time to increase Views ? Suck d**** or random ppl of LA to get applause to the top beating #ROAR ? share “sexDreams” and “Swine” teasers on Fb, you know those things ? or you are Originally a beyonce stan in denial ?

      that’s why “applause” stay flopping, you are so busy attacking other fanbases but never do your job.

        THANK YOU!!! people forget that MJ before he passed away had a sold out show with clearly no new music….. people go to concerts to be ENTERTAINED and to hear the overall catalog of music from the artist, not only to hear new s***……

    • Oh Yeah!!! September 1, 2013

      Perfect Bey!

  15. S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

    She’s a great performer and i’m the first one to say that but the only Pop Queen i know has 55 years old right now, King B is a much better honorific nickname to her but i guess every female musician will be called Queen of Pop at least one in their career thanks to success.

    • Stephy Tha Lambily September 1, 2013

      Good Morning Baby!

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        Morning kid, do you go to school now?

      • Stephy Tha Lambily September 1, 2013

        Did you get your Prostate examined yet? *ROLLS EYES*

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        Haha angry Stephy, so cute, hey i’m not 30 yet.

    • RoyalKev September 1, 2013

      Again, I can’t believe I’m saying this, but everything stated up there makes sense! Although, IMO this QOP title will always be shared with Janet! … No matter what other names comes up!

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        @Royalkev
        I don’t know maybe for Janet fans is like that but when you think of Queen of Pop, the first thing that comes in mind is Madonna, i’m sure for the rest of the world is like that too but better Janet than a 5 years career h**, lol.

    • Stephy Tha Lambily September 1, 2013

      @RoyalKev The Queen Of Pop will always be Madonna! 95% of her music is POP. SHE HOS THE MOST POP HITS. SHE IS JUST A POP ARTIST!!! Janet Jacksons music is only like 40% pop… No other artist INCLUDING MJ has had such a catlogue of pop music like Madonna! She is pure POP.

      NOW BACK TO MY BABY….

      @Blondey … Why everytime i’m flirting with you, your ass always gotta f*** up the moment!!! UGHHH

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        @Stephy
        You know i’m kidding, i love you.

    • POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 1, 2013

      Oh no, not the whole “Queen of pop” fiasco Again, Please.

      I think Artists should be creative with their titles, like “Emperor of Pop” ,”empress of pop” , “Sultan of Pop”, etc…

      😆

      @RoyalKev:

      Janet is a queen On her own, But Madonna is The official Queen of pop+Number never Lie, Mariah, janet,Celine and other 90’s Queens should “Tailor” other Titles because QOP is so Madonna’s.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        @Pop
        I agree.

      • RoyalKev September 1, 2013

        @ S******

        -she influenced the likes of Britney, Aaliyah, Ciara but she also influenced some male musicians, Justin Timberlake …

        -she seems also more interestiong in still making music than Janet, therefore people feel more connected to her

        -MJ and Madonna, were very smart in marketed themselves as the blueprint Pop Stars …
        ——————————————————————————

        All great points, I still have some reservations with Janet being excluded, but this does sum up alot.

        @Johnvidal

        Worldwide Madonna (and Mariah, Whitney or Celine) are so much bigger than Janet.
        ——————————————————————-

        I totally agree with Whitney & Celine. Both sold 30 – 50 million with different albums.

        Madonna’s is debatable for me. I know she has accumulated more sales than Janet with her overall collection, so I’m not disregarding that. The thing is Janet and Madonna sold albums internationally at similar rates (in the 20 million bracket, if you don’t include Madge’s Greatest Hits package), which are lower than Whitney, Celine and Mariah’s peaks. Janet’s stats online won’t reflect that. She’s the ONLY artists that have have the same stats for well over the last 13 years. I do see your argument … & yea, it sucks! I wish the kind of treatment she’s getting on nobody!

    • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2013

      Damn it! I thought Madonna was 65 now 🙂

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        That only show your lack of knowledge about her but hey no problem if she’s 65 or 100, she still put to shame some young wannabes.

      • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2013

        I was obviously joking, I know she´s in her mid 50s. And obviously it doesn´t matter what age these legends are.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        I know you were kidding honey.

    • RoyalKev September 1, 2013

      Hmmm… I’m going to say this in my defense. I don’t want to get in my feelings about Janet today (because this is a beautiful King B post and breaking down Janet’s career and every element in it is time consuming).

      First off @Stephy Tha Lambily

      Janet is clearly a pop artists mainly. She’s dabbled into different styles of music, but her vocal type caters to Pop. Her discography was very universal, but her actual sound contained mainly pop elements (just the way her brother, MJ did). If he’s pop, why would Janet not be? She was practically a female version of him to a degree.

      There are better examples of artists that equally seem to have a footing in 2 genres (R&B /Pop).

      Like
      1) Queen Whitney (The Voice) that has half Pop & R&B hits in her catalog that’s split down the middle.
      Or
      2) the Queen of hits, Mariah who also has an equal amount of R&B and Pop records.
      Same with
      3) King B

      I think people are confused sometimes about what artists are actually making Pure R&B records (like Alicia, Mary J, Usher, Toni Braxton, etc). These are R&B superstars.

      Making Janet claim R&B, would be like doing the same with Rihanna. Janet obtained many #1 R&B hits, but she didn’t target the R&B charts. She just scored on both (the way MJ did).

      The reason why I give Janet the QOP title as well as Madonna is because she went toe to toe with her for almost 20 years. Both women influenced the industry like no other for those that want to be called entertainers. Even after the crippling Superbowl incident their stats in Pop history are still astounding.

      Both Janet & Madonna obtained #1 hits in the 80’s, 90’s & ’00’s.

      Their last hit:
      Janet – All For You (2001)
      Madonna – Music (2000)

      Janet longest – All for You (7 weeks at #1)
      Madonna’s – Take A Bow (7 weeks at #1)

      Janet was the #2 Artist of the Decade in the 90’s(behind Mariah). I don’t know where Madonna came in.

      Janet has 6 #1’s albums (tied with Mariah) to Madonna’s 8 (but Madonna obviously released more studio albums than Janet did). They both (Madge & Janet) have 5 that were consecutive. Barbra Streisand leads with 9.

      Janet & Madonna are the MTV premiere video artists for that generation.

      I could go on and on, but I understand why Janet gets excluded from these type of things. Do I think it fair? No. Are these two the most comparable artists when it comes down to this? Yes.

      I’m not taking anything away from Madonna, I just feel like there’s not enough truth about the defining decades of Pop available these days. I have my theory as to why that is the case, but to each their own.

      • S****** Blonde September 1, 2013

        I understand your point and i do think Janet is underrated a lot, i think she and Madonna are the most influential female Pop singers of all times, like you said, Janet was/is in a certain way the female MJ, not only she influenced the likes of Britney, Aaliyah, Ciara but she also influenced some male musicians, Justin Timberlake himself is very influence by her, anyone can see that, the thing is that Madonna take by storm the world in an arguably way that only males were able to do, she seems also more interestiong in still making music than Janet, therefore people feel more connected to her, i think Janet is Pop Royalty but like many critics have said : Madonna is undoubtedly the Queen of Pop and she’s too ambitious and evil to share her throne and she made sure that did not happen, several other singer whom have also received this nickname, have been called after Madonna (e.g. The Black Madonna, among others). The woman is compared to every female musician even if they’re not Pop artists, it’s crazy but MJ and Madonna, were very smart in marketed themselves as the blueprint Pop Stars, They are the quintessential pop stars, simply the role models to follow by every Pop Star.

      • JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2013

        You didn´t lie. But all of that happened in the USA. Worldwide Madonna (and Mariah, Whitney or Celine) are so much bigger than Janet. That´s why Madonna is the Queen of Pop in almost everybody´s eyes. And even in the USA any of those other fameles have way bigger album sales than Janet.
        But like I said you didn´t lie, the facts are amazing and Janet´s evolution was incredible. Too bad it all kind of stopped after you know what.

    • RoyalKev September 1, 2013

      Ok, I totally messed up the flow of this convo somehow! Smh.

  16. Lil Mo Stan and trey burkes husband (Kendricks d*** game wasnt on point) September 1, 2013

    Yass. Drag them! I’m a Beyonce fan, but how can I be a fan if there’s no singles, no explanations, no empathy, nothing. Said it once before, say I once again. 4 may very well be the last album I buy from this trifling “beyonce” character.

  17. TheTruth September 1, 2013

    Beyonce You Are Perfection ON STAGE!!! But where is your new album b****… It’s just like she said “F*** this!! Why do I need a new album when I can just sell out tours & perform better than anyone in the entertainment industry”… Well imma need some new music to get my life from KING B

  26. POP ROYALTY (F*** Yeah Rihanna) September 1, 2013

    Nothing New.

    Should I repeat what I Have always said on how she’s an amazing performer and yada yada yada ? because it got so repetitive now, She’s Performing the same songs over an d over and over Again, I’m sure any Bey stan can perform as good as her now after seeing her perform those same songs for 2 years straight the same way.

    I partially Agree with @H2O.

    Beyonce, Time for new music, sept. 4 is your B’day will be good, Launch the new era please!!!

    • Drew September 1, 2013

      Its her Tour set why would it change?

  28. Fierce & all -Not here for b****** that can only slay in studios September 1, 2013

    Amazing! The fact that even the non fans want new music proves she’s doing something right.
    Her new album will sell at least 300-400k 1st week. My 2nd prediction is 200-300.
    Either way, it will sell a lot.

  29. JOHNVIDAL September 1, 2013

    Great performer!
    No good musician. But nothing we didn´t know before. She has a big amount of talent for certain things, which makes her instantly better than most of nowadays stars. I´m glad she keeps giving her fans what they want with all these on point performances and tours. Beyonce´s new era feels… damn it nobody knows what to think! 🙂 It´s good in a way, isn´t it?
    Btw Celine´s new single debuts on Tuesday and she will perform it on American tv on Sep 6th already. Can´t wait! Hope TGJ reports about it 🙂

    • Wrecking ball September 1, 2013

      No one gives a flying f*** about Celine hun.

      • FAF September 1, 2013

  30. Drew September 1, 2013

  31. Hadley September 1, 2013

    She looks really pretty here. The bob is everything! I dont know why but Im always smiling hard when Im watching her lol.
    And shes performing her Tour so of course its going to be the same. Fans especially should know this smh.

  32. tyler September 1, 2013

    What can I say? I mean, every beyonce performance is an exceptional one. Anyways…I love the outfit she’s rocking here and I’m anxious to hear I Been On in its entirety. Good job Bey!

  33. rih rox((beyonce stealing Nartasha dress)) September 1, 2013

    Same crappy leotards, same wig…I thought she got a haircut. Anyways I’ve seen the pics on dailymail now we know why she is insecure and doesn’t allow other photographers except for her own. Funny thing is she gets exposed on the world stages cause she can’t tell others to Photoshop the pics.

    • XXX September 1, 2013

      Same crappy comments by you racist.

    • XXX September 1, 2013

      Exposed for what? Shes performing her ass off and actually puts effort, energy and is not thinking about the way she looks while performing HIGH ENERGY unlike your fav. I would do the same.

    • Tyler September 1, 2013

      No, your fave, and her big snout, look horrid without makeup or photoshop. If anyone’s insecure its probably her….to be completely honest.

      • Betranny is done September 1, 2013

        And beytrannyonce has a big ugly long ass Islamic nose. And she has bug eyes .there huge

      • Tyler September 1, 2013

        Islamic nose my ass! LMFAO. Her nose is still smaller than RihCaveMan’s honker. Besides, I’d rather have bug eyes anyday than a water moccasin of head, bigger than the planet of Venus.

  34. XXX September 1, 2013

    Love it she looks cute. Slayed as usual.

  35. Lovebird (PRISM – 10.22.13)) September 1, 2013

    LMAO What the f*** was that???

    1. Her catalog of music is insanely boring, she only has one good song on stage which is Crazy in love, the rest is dated, put together rubbish, yawn.

    2. She looks like a disgusting t***** s***, why is she still dressing like that, she looks gross. Isn’t she a mother? Why does she want to dress like that? Yuck.

    3. She is still packing on them pounds, someone needs to put a salad on her menu, she keeps on gaining and gaining and gaining, ewwwww. Next she’ll beat Adele on the scale.

    GROSS, DATED AND BORING….NEXT.

    Amazing performer could watch her anytime. Wish I couldve got tickets they sold out so quick. Heard she was amazing my friend went.

  37. Tyler September 1, 2013

    What the f*** is lovebird whining about now LMFAO?

    1. Idk how she can criticize anyone’s artistry, catalogue, or performances when she stans for Rihanna lol. I mean, she doesn’t even have a substantial amount of singing or dancing talent.

    2. How can she call anyone a t*****? Her fave looks like a MALE SPLICE….

    3. Lets not talk about weight. Because Rihanna, and her beer belly, are built worse than a m***********. All that b**** is, is head and shoulders. She looks like a real life bratz doll.

    4. I find it funny that Beyoncé’s Mrs. Carter Show is outselling Rihanna’s Cubic Zirconium Tour…with no new material. How you feel???

    Besides, there’s really no need to hate. Loverbird she stop acting like the bitter, BURNT, jealous troll that we all know her as…because its not a good look SMDH.

    • Tyler September 1, 2013

      * I wish Loverbird she stop acting like the bitter, BURNT, jealous troll that we all know her as…because its not a good look SMDH.

    • Yolo September 1, 2013

      Lol drag but tbh I stopped after the bitter b****** first sentence asking what the f*** a Beyonce performance is when she gets slayed over that Goats ‘performances’ if thats what you call them.

      • Tyler September 1, 2013

        Exactly! I’d rather watch Beyoncé perform Crazy in Love 100 times than watch Billy Goats Gruff oops…I mean Rihanna act like a damn fool on stage.

  38. Yolo September 1, 2013

    I agree with majoroty of comments: she is brilliant.
