You realize that Beyoncé is arguably the most popular female entertainer over the last 20 years?

Her peak wasn't as high as Taylor swift, Katy perry or Britney Spears but she's been relevant since like 1997 and never went through a down period like Britney did for a while.

Katy Perry has never been as big as Beyonce.

I don't think you have to like her, or him for that matter, to appreciate that Lemonade was fricking gorgeous.

She thinks her shite doesn't stink and that she's better than everyone, so I can't root for anything she does.

Give me Alicia Keys & Mary J Blige(R&B) over Beyoncé any day of the week artistically and in feeling them intrinsically to their songs. And Alison Goldfrapp(Pop/Dance) too.

Then again, maybe I'm just biased because Jay Z puked all over Bobby Blue Bland's classic "Aint No Love"..but at least he has great taste in beauty and in classic tunes to sample/boost.

Am I the only one tired of these two? Oh, and I almost forgot about Jay-z's BET whopper.


This can't be serious. Beyonce is the biggest name in music.

So she's similar to 99.9% of the people on this forum.


Again, most of you love looking for something to bitch and moan about.

She's probably bigger than Swift, Perry, or Spears because she appeals to adults, who have purchasing power. Spears is from a different era when people still bought records, so its not a straight comparison, but Spears definitely sold more. But her appeal was limited to under 25's, particularly preteen and teen girls. Beyonce has a much wider spectrum of appeal.

You can make a good faith argument she is the most popular pop star of the past 20 years. It's either her or Taylor Swift, who also has expanded her audience to adults recently.

HBO would be stupid not to want her short film which, not incidentally, was incredibly well-made. It was a legit film.

Okay, we get it, you're an expert at psych evals. Try to keep focus on the discussion. You're not going to do it, because I can only assume you enjoy talking down on people, but it really is annoying.

This is the movie/TV board. Discuss. People have critical views, get over it. It's not personal.

Say's the person who's upset that HBO had the audacity to put one of the most popular artist in the world on their channel for an hour. Oh the horror...

Nope, I didn't. I guess I haven't been alive long enough to care.

The biggest weapon against Beyoncé or Jay z or the Kardashians is to ignore them. Pretend they don't exist.

Me and my lady woke fell asleep on the couch and I hear "something something something the bombest pussy something something". Then it started some demonic Beyoncé video and I changed it to charlottes web.

What exactly was lemonade?

A self aggrandized showing backed by HBO. Basically public masturbation.
