With over 20 years of Pop cultural dominance, Beyonce is renown for having an impact that stretches far beyond the music charts.
And the latest measure of her mega-stardom comes from France.
Details below…
New statistics have revealed that Paris’ Louvre museum was visited by 10.2 million in 2018, making the art gallery the most attended space of its sort in the world.
Its director Jean-Luc Martinez touted the popularity of Beyonce and Jay-Z‘s ‘APESH*T’ video (which was filmed at the museum and featured prized items such as the Mona Lisa painting) as one of the primary reasons for the visitor lift.
Especially as foreigners made for nearly 75% of the Louvre’s visitors last year.
Martinez added that the news cemented that the city had recovered from the dip in tourism caused by terrorist attacks in 2015.
Released last June to signal the arrival of The Carters joint album ‘Everything Is Love,’ the ‘APESH*T’ visual has – to date – amassed 146 million views.
I love how y’all build her up as if she didn’t fake her way to the top! Fake royalties, stealing songwriting credits, stealing show concepts from lesser known UK artists, as well as selling out her personal life just to continue to sell her albums! Face it, she’s successful in her on right I give her that but that’s where the train stops with her! She’s talented but not special!
I live next to the louvre and I like Beyoncé. But this is not true, that grape juice should stop lying, it decreases your credibility. Kiss, Paris.
I’m surprised you guys haven’t posted Christina Aguilera’s New Year’s Eve performance yet. Granted it was nothing spectacular but still
BULLSH*T.
Tourism generally recovered by 2017 in Paris, it is not Beyoncé who impacted it…. the number of Asian tourists to Europe, especially to Paris, is increasing RAPIDLY, and also (thanks to the EU regulation and market for) cheap flights (you can buy a return ticket to Paris for 30 euros) in Europe supports tourism as well.
What about Jay btch?
Damn when you gonna give him some real p**** and not out a test tube like the twins.
She is a thief…..but they riddle Whitney Houston …asking Whitney humiliating questions… She was soooo f***** hurt you mutha fuckaszz……fck Beyonce
Really? Next time you’ll say she brought tourists back to France?
Paris was the city with most tourists last year passing New York 2 and London 3.

I guarantee you that no one who goes to the Louvre is thinking about no damn Beyonce. Despite what their b*** kissing director says, the Louvre is one of the most popular tourist destinations in France and the rest of the world.
