Summary: “Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets.”
haha!
fuuuuuuuck that.
I’m not one to hate on pop stars but her image always perplexed me. She’s clearly an awful human being but somehow avoids being canceled because she’s pretending to empower minorities.
Outside of BLM, her image since she went independent has always been to be strategically silent on a lot. She doesn’t tweet or even try to communicate her views on the world.
Interviews from when she was in Destiny’s Child show she had the education of someone you would expect who spent their teen years working on their singing career instead of focusing on high school or going to college.
She is a symbol because she can be a symbol. Her PR team seem to operate the same way the British Royal Family does; don’t comment on controversy and heavily control press events.
And it works.
I wish more celebrities would follow her lead on that subject.
