It took 90 days for Beyonce to complete her latest visual project ‘Lemonade.’
Sound impressive? Well wait until you find out how her decision to shoot the project in her family’s “hometown” of Louisiana has changed the lives of its inhabitants, below…
The star can trace her lineage to the state to the year 1765, the year her ancestor Joseph Broussard settled following his departure from present-day Haiti.
Keen to honour her familial ties to the land, the star set ‘Lemonade‘s story in the state much to the delight of its inhabitants.
For, 300 of them were employed to help her complete the visual, seeing them enjoy a piece of the $1.35 million she used to complete it.
Catch ‘Lemonade’ when it premieres on HBO on April 23rd.

Wow! Groundbreaking news! Thanks for sharing! ?
Have a feeling this album is gonna be released for free. A lot don’t realize but this is bey last album with Columbia, I think she tryna go out with a bang. !
Idk think it will be free. Columbia intends to make money not lose it lol! Either way im excited to see what she does after her contract is up! I wonder if she’ll go independent or renew.
Umm, that s*** sounds stupid.
B**** shut yo ass up. Has our favorite Transgender found her new label?
Is Lil Weazel still Birdmans b**** boy bottom? Does The Carter V have a release date? Is Drake still slaying him? Has your H** turned into full blown A*** yet? B**** back up off me.
Your typical boring drags ???. Has CICI finally got her d*** cut off, does CICI have a platinum album this decade. Is CICI still being slayed by Tinashe?
GROUNDBREAKING indeed hun. Everyone getting into Formation by working (literally) that’s great news. Smh how can you still be so negative about this tho ???
Salute to the Queen
She’s a Queen sent from heaven.
ROTFLMFAO
TGJ dropping these good hints. #NolaHistory
????oh brother. Kii! She need need need needed them that’s why they got paid. If anything substantial. Without the army of people behind her she would be back to square one stealing from Brodway shows and the street corners of Houston she never saw.
Don’t be a hater dear. It doesn’t suit you. #JobsProvider #WelfareSlayer #Beyployment
Is this anything of importance really Sam you start grasping at,straws now anything to get people interested the thirst is so real first it was red lobster I’m glad she helping her welfare fans it’s about time
Wait are you a Rihanna Stan talking about having a team ? Without Rihanna having a team who picked her singles and promoted her right she wouldn’t be anywhere with those goat vocals and fashion y’all look up to.
Yas the Legendary Queen Beyoncé!!! Im thirsty af for that album!!! Super stoked for Lemonade!!!! IM STILL SCREAMING AT THAT NFL TEA!!! FUXKING QUEENNO DOUBT!!
Why are the Z-Listers here nce again??? They should be more focused on when Mrs. Man is gunna get a record deal and why she keeps lying saying the album is in “progress” lol#
.
The Navy should be focusing on why Thotanna has showed her t.i.t.s every video this era only to be slayed by little Ariana KIB Video (23m views) Dangerous Woman video (44m views). Has AntiSuccess outsold Artpop yet??? Has Thotanna stopped lying about her “soldout” shows kiii!!!
You should be focused on FLOPmation cracking the hot 100 and the lack of anticipation for LemonLATE sis.
Ciara has a new man for every album so just be happy her staged relationship with Russell is working out boo boo.
Naw i think not! It was a free single that was never released as an official single. Ill wait for the real singles hit the charts! Meanwhile has Mrs Man found a label???
Really? And I’m pretty sure they won’t report their earnings to their local welfare and unemployment office!
And who told you that they don’t have other jobs? Interesting you assumed that they wouldn’t be professionals working on a Beyonce video. Interesting that you linked welfare to a predominantly black state and not to the black sound engineers, catering companies, chauffeurs, hotel staff etc who did their part to make money for their community. Interesting.
@Bey Got that Body you better say that!!!!!
Clock ha !!!!!
All videos/ films give people jobs. What’s the big deal?Lol. TGJ, you guys need to stop acting like Beyawnce is doing something special. It’s getting lame
Are you forgetting what Katrina did to New Orleans? Or the difference that money could make to a household who really needed it? Please look beyond the hate and think about how cool it would be if your little brother or sister came home with money in their pocket and pride in their hearts because they were hired to work on a Beyonce video.
She’s not aware of what Katrina did to NO. She’s not even a U.S. citizen lol
Please stop. I live in L.A., the movie capital of the nation, and film companies have hired homeless people off the street to work as extras. You folks really need to quit exalting every little thing Beyawnce does
Sis this post is sooooo pointless.
As was the ring Feature gave to SeeYaAtTheAisleAra.
KIII
Future who? Oh the bitter little boy who’s pressed because Queen has moved on? Girl die.
@wackie
You know who Future is very well. He’s currently more relevant than your fave #56k
How many platinum albums, Grammys and #1 hits does he have again? Not Panda slaying his entire existence….
B**** your life is useless, your mom should have swallowed.
Sam report on anything on bey he mad rih is getting all the shine today I guess Obama will,report on cnn that bey boost the job market does he think we stupid is this any news though you notice this site never report bey failures
Wow Queen s*** ?
https://mobile.twitter.com/musicnews_shade/status/722089216436477952
.
Just further cementing her status as a QUEEN!!!
.
I can’t with the NFL making accommodations for Beys needs kiii!!!
Who gives a f***
You do. Aren’t you playing one of the hookers?
Well..she’s the Queen Bet for a reason.
Yeah Theifyonce may be a good performer, but a horrible actress. Hope what ever this crap is she’s pulling with shitmonade doesn’t require acting because she sucks at it. So over her….well I’ve actually been over her…just like throwing shade!
Oooh here comes a bitter Betty!!!! What’s wrong? Your daddy borrowed your leggings without asking again?
See even her haters can’t help but give her props on the performance end. Beyonce come through Queen!!!!
Ok Beyonce kudos… I really feel lemonade will be epic.
Is the album coming out Friday?
Raise your hand if you thought that your screen would break once Wackie Jackie entered the post ✋✋✋
✋ lol thought that computer he’s using would fry due to excessive seething overloading!! ?
Right! She’s clearly BEYhydrated ??
Lmao yass he needs a tall glass of lemonade with organic honey!!! ???????
How about you raise your hand and shove it up your ass? Well nevermind you may enjoy that.
TURN YO PUNK ASS OVA
I really hope this isn’t Beyonce last album because if so I will cry.
Awesome! Beyonce has been making big moves for the past few years. From attending the march for Trayvon Martin, bailing protesters out of jail, aiding the victims of Katrina, bringing light to this issue- risking losing white fans and being black mailed- during the half time superbowl which is watched by a billion people, and using proceeds from her tour to help aid poisoned victims in Flint because of the water crisis
Keep the good work up Queen Bey ??
She didn’t risk losing white fans. She risked losing racists.
Stop lying. I have family in Flint and she is not one of the donors helping with aid. So just stop with the bs azzkissing.
P.S., the term is blacklisted not blackmailed lmao.
@SMH gurrrl stop the liess!! You ain’t got no family in flint!! Lmfao!!!
.
“True to her life’s work of always giving back, fans will be given the opportunity to participate in Beyoncé’s #BeyGOOD initiative supporting local United Way programs and the continued work surrounding the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. United Way of Genesee County has been at the forefront of distributing thousands of filtration pitchers, faucet mount filters, replacement cartridges and truckloads of water to underserved populations to address immediate needs in Flint Michigan. They are also partnering with the Community Foundation of Greater Flint to create a fund that will address long-term developmental, education, nutrition and health needs of the children affected by the Flint Water Crisis. Follow @beygood on Twitter for more information.”

ALL of the proceeds from are tour are going to Flint.
You deserved to be slapped in the face with a bag of nickels because all of this lying is starting to get ridiculous
Lmfao!!
.
*hands Tyler bag of nickels.
.
“Care to do the honors?”
Why are this news??? Various project produce jobs…. This site stays on Beyonce’s ass
*IS, *projects
Completely pointless and transparent post. EVERY video or movie that films in a city employs local residents. That’s nothing new or special, just more PR bull from camp beyonce blowing smoke up everyone’s a**. She has the best smoke & mirrors bullsh*t machine in the business since Madonna
Every city wasn’t DESTROYED by Hurricane like Katrina. You sound ignorant.
That was almost 11 years ago. Most of the city has been rebuilt. I doubt she went into the hood and hired the people who are still affected by it till this day so shut up b****.
Katrina was over 10 years ago. And that has nothing to do with the fact that all cities employ local residents for film projects. Clearly you are ignorant.
Don’t it ! Because you clearly don’t know WTF you’re talking about. The east side is stilling shamble. The flooded neighborhood in the video, the new orleans references and styles. My family is from the NOLA and she represented for them!! Y’all looking at the wrong things besides the underlying message of the song.
*still
Wah wah my city was destroyed. Japan was nearly washed away in 2011 and you don’t see them b1tching. They fixed their 5h1t and moved on with their lives.
@omg
This isn’t Japan this is the united states of amerikkka.
Now get your white supremacist ass outta my reply section
Folks of getting tired of this narcissistic Bush Beyawnce. I can’t wait to see what an epic flop Sh##monade will be. #BeyYouAintNoMichaelJackson
You’ll be waiting forever dear. Forever.
She’s already flopping, dear. Hymn For The Weekend, Formation, Ivy Park are all flops
Ivy park is not a flop. Its doing very well. Neither is formation a flop. It served it’s purpose. Hymn for the weekend is not her single but now it’s all her fault? You people are such loonies.
LOL BUT WHY DIDN’T THOSE PEOPLE KEEP FLOPMATION FROM FLOPPING ON THE BUBBLING UNDER CHARTS? LMAO
I think Ciara boosted sales of self esteem self help books when people saw how a girl with low self esteem allows herself to be used by a deadbeat dad with no emotional connection to his children or the fools he knocks up. Rihanna boosted sales of earplugs for obvious reasons and Drake boosted sales of water based concealer for his Hotline Bling video shoot. #StimulusSlay
Not Ci-Error boosting Self Esteem Self Help Books KIII!!!!
Me: We see what Beyonce has done, but what sales have Ciara boosted?
Bruno Martian says: sales of self esteem self help books when people saw how a girl with low self esteem allows herself to be used by a deadbeat dad
I’ve gone on other blogs and 99.99% of folks are sick and tired of Dumbyonce
99.9% of folks don’t even know who Ciara is….
SCREAMING!!! Like seriously sis, that’s all kinds of sad! Go outside an get some air. Goodness gracious child! Now we all know what you do when TGJ ain’t posting! You out on NUMEROUS OTHER BLOGS CHECKING FOR THE QUEEN KIII!!!!
…Yeah… they also said Ivy Park sold out.

SCREAMING @ this moronic c****. They were using a TWEET from a Beyonce fanpage. LMFAOOO!!! Cosmopolitan – a fashion magazine – already clocked the no-life-having-āss-høe-hive and twitter was hollering. ?????
_______________________
My mouth dropped when I showed up for the launch of Ivy Park at Topshop’s Soho location in New York. There was not a single person in line
No camping out overnight, no eager shoppers. It was so quiet I could hear the birds chirping. All I saw were people walking their dogs and grabbing their morning coffees. Where was the Beyhive? I couldn’t have been the only one who cared. Because Beyoncé. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/style-beauty/fashion/news/a56890/beyonce-ivy-park-topshop-launch/
Where does the Hollywood Reporter state that Ivy Flop sold out? Typical idiotic no-life-having-āss-høe-hive fāggot. Your problem is that you don’t read articles. You just saw the link and thought otherwise. SCREAMING @ this idiotic lazy ass mentally exigous brain dead bìtch. LEARN TO READ! That was literally a self-drag! ?????
______________________
As for now, there’s still plenty of inventory left on the retailer’s websitethough finding your specific size in every piece you want (read: all of them) may prove a bit difficult.
If this morning’s low turnout at Topshop’s L.A. store at The Grove is any indication, however, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to get your hands on a sports bra or perhaps a pair of branded slides at the brick-and-mortar locations.
They claimed Topshop website crashed because of Ivy Park. However Ivy Park is still not sold out! Lol!
Bish where?

Beyawnce is giving away free tickets to her Formation tour! SCREAMING!!!
Lol Formation is projected to gross over 250 million.
When will PeePee??
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU JUST PLAYED YA SELF
Fleahives, I thought Formation was sold out?!!
^^This idiot is seriously trying to shade one of the highest grossing female tours in music history^^ ????
Beyoncé you make it hard for women like me who try to have some intergrity
You make it hard for girls like myself who respect themselves And have dignity
You nasty girl, you nasty, you trashy You classless girl, you sleazy, you freaky
—
Booty all out, tongue out her mouth, cleavage from here to Mexico
She walks wit a twist, one hand on her hip, when she gets wit’cha she lets it go
Nasty put some clothes on, you look to’ down
Nasty don’t know why you, will not sit down
Heels on her feet, swear she’s in heat, flirtin’ wit every man she sees
Her pants hangin’ low, she never says no, everyone knows she’s easy
Nasty put some clothes on, you lookin’ stank
Nasty what’s your problem, you should be ashamed
Oh shut the hell up as female myself this comment is pathetic. Get a life and your own brain and stop living through celebrity culture. It’s not their job to make you ‘feel dignified’ that’s your job.
You do realize those are Destiny Child lyrics?
KIII IM SCREAMING AT THIS HEAUX!!

Remember when they laughed at Rihanna for selling tour tickets for $10 and giving them away for free? Well Beat is doing the same ,thing! She’s partnering up with a charity to give away free tickets to her tour! This proves that her Formation tour is not sold out!
.
If that tea is true who does it even compare to Rihanna giving away tickets?? Beyonce is doing it for charity! Where des that say Tour is Unsold! She is still adding dates amd has already grossed over $100 million from pre-sale tickets alone!!! ????!!! The reach from these peasants is unfathomable!!!! If a tour is not selling well! I HIGHLY DOUBT SOMEONE WOULD STILL BE ADDING OR BOOKING MORE STADIUM DATES!!! LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN FOR Y’ALL HARD HEADED HOEEEES!
