Beyonce sneezed on the Beat and the Beat got sicker! I didn’t know this magazine, Beat, existed. But it does and it’s a British publication. They decided to go with red-white-and-blue Americana style for their first-ever Beyonce cover. It’s nice. I really enjoy this cover, but I actually like Americana-themed stuff (if the “Star Spangled Banner” is sung really well, I will start to cry every time). Beat shot this cover in the Hamptons (photo by Ryan McGinley) and of course there’s no cover interview. If you remember, Beyonce is not speaking on behalf on Beyonce any longer. No interviews. No words. No words will be spoken by Beyonce, but words may be spoken about Beyonce. So it’s totally cool to say that I enjoy the fact that Beat didn’t Photoshop Beyonce’s thighs, like Beyonce Photoshops her own Instagram photos.
As for Beyonce not speaking on behalf of Beyonce anymore, some people wonder if it’s because she has marriage drama with Jay-Z. Personally, I think she had marriage drama last year, but they seem to be doing better this year. This week’s National Enquirer has a breathless story about how Bey and Jay were “literally signatures away from a divorce” a few months ago and they were already living apart. Then they decided to give it another go. But a few months ago they were headed for their annual late summer vacation? So… probably not.
Meanwhile, Beyonce’s dad has been shilling his new seminar system – teaching people how to be like Beyonce, I guess – and doing a lot of interviews. He was asked how Beyonce copes with all of the rumors about her marriage. This is what he said:
“You don’t even know half that stuff! I don’t have time to read it, but that stuff doesn’t mean anything to Beyoncé. I’m so proud of her – she’s surrounded with a wonderful team who I trained. Beyoncé will make mistakes, we all do, but she has learned from them.”
“You don’t even know half that stuff!” – meaning we don’t know half of the stuff Beyonce puts up with in her marriage, or half the stuff she puts up with from the media? And what are these mistakes that she’s made with regards to marriage rumors? Hm?

Ugh. These Americans…so patriotic, so obsessed with their country! So insular too. Oh, and SO ethnocentric.
Did I cover everything? Cuz you know it’s coming….
😉
I love her one overall strap 90s throwback style. Truly. I have a really cute pair of overalls but I’m not supposed to wear them because they embarrass the boyfriend–which is why I wear them pretty frequently.
I like her overalls too. I had a great pair in the 90’s I bought from a thrift store. Miss them. Need to purchase another pair.
I was just coming to say I think that overall outfit is so cute. Oh and how adorable is Blue in that header pic?
Ridiculously cute, like a little island princess. I see Beyoncé’s eyes on her too.
Me too! I’d rock that outfit, maybe not with the ridiculous heels, though.
I have been itching to buy a pair of cute overalls , this may have put me over the edge to do it! Haha.
Swap ‘patriotism’ with ‘nationalism’ and we’re fine, Kitten.
She looks beautiful as always but wish the would keep their child out of the public eye for safety sake.
Considering how big she is , blue ivy is quite shielded from the media. After a couple of install pictures here and there there’s nothing from either her or even the paps. They seem to ride that line fairly well. And they also never complain about the media so that gives them points in my book.
For such a high profile couple,I think they are pretty good at keeping their child away from the media and public, she can’t be completely hidden all the time,she needs fresh air.
Blue Ivy is getting so big!!!
Blue is very tall but her personality is infectious. This child is truly on fire because of the loving environment she obviously comes from. Say what you want about the Carters, they are great parents = all day, every day Blue!
Look at Blue! 😍
What is the point of giving her all these covers with no interviews, you can get a million of such pics on her instagram. Beyoncé has always been heavily shielded even when she was giving interviews they never dared (probably because of threats from Matthew Knowles) to ask her hard hitting questions. I f we go back years she has never addressed supposed Jay Z love child, Plagiarizing( being ‘inspired’), pillow gate, Cathy White, Met Ball beat down etc even Oprah went soft on her at a time she could have really opened up.
I think it’s so people can lose their minds: “we want to hear from Beysus!” But, in reality, most people don’t curr (said in Bey’s signature Houston accent).
Honestly Beyoncé is only interesting on stage, she is bland her interviews have never been interesting, mainly because she gags reporters on certain subjects. She used to have a spark in the beginning of DC but she has been a robot since her solo career, every answer perfectly thought out.
(if the “Star Spangled Banner” is sung really well, I will start to cry every time)
ME TOO!
(I cried like a fool when I saw Inside Out, too) lol
Whitney Houston at the Super Bowl.
Whitney’s singing of the National Anthem is the standard by which I judge all other attempts to sing it. Sadly for most people, almost no one can live up to her AMAZING version.
Oh my God to crying at Inside Out. Not gonna lie, it got super dusty here when I watched that movie.
BILBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Blue is my life, tbh.
Please Beehive girls, don’t hate me but I have slowly grown out of love with Beyonce…anyone else with me? If not, I’ll go back to my corner :-/
I’ve never bewn in love with her in the first place. So annoying.
I never loved her. she’s an annoying narcissistic egomaniac.
Me neither. To me, Beyonce is just another prepackaged pop act, not particularly unique or talented.
I would still divorce my husband for her, but I’m not in the Hive. She’s fierce on stage, but not above criticism. I think she should either continue to not give interviews or start to be more authentic when doing an interview. She’s really bland and forgetable in interviews, a bit more honesty would do her a world of good.
Matthew Knowles is one great businessman.
Blue Ivy is so cute!
Is it just me or does Beyonce look pregnant in the flag photo?
She has always been thick and curvy so I don’t understand why she goes on those crazy diet where she loses lots of weight in a short time. Take the last MET gala for instance where she was lean and in a few weeks she went back to what i think is her natural weight and size. I think it’s to prove she can be skinny too if she wants even though it’s quite obvious she cuts corners to get so. In my opinion she is one of the celeb women who look better thick cos she is quite muscular too.
I think she looks pregnant too, you can see the Roundness of her tummy and yes, she is curvy, but not in the belly.
Her legs are flawless.
