Speaker 2: So today this is a big episode. This is a.

24
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 3: Huge episode for us. Yes, over the years, we've talked

25
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 3: about this artist in different episodes and just sprinkled our love, adoration,

26
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 3: admiration for this artist. But today is the Beyonce episode.

27
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: We're honestly still on an emotional hangover recovering from the

28
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 3: Renaissance tour that came to Los Angeles, and so we

29
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 3: want to talk all things Renaissance and all things Beyonce.

30
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: Today. We are millennials. We have never known a world

31
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: without Beyonce. She has been around our entire lives, our childhoods,

32
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: our adolescents, teen years, twenties up until the present. So

33
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: this is an episode I think that we've basically been

34
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 2: preparing for our entire lives. We have deep Beyonce love

35
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: but also deep Beyonce knowledge, and we're just gonna like,

36
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 2: we're just gonna We're just gonna love on her and

37
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: talk about what we wore with the Beehive War. Because

38
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: we did some coverage for the La Times for the

39
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: loss and we were interviewing fans in the merch line

40
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: and it was glorious. It was such a good time.

41
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 2: But we had fun with it ourselves because we both

42
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: got dressed up.

43
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I approached it at first. When Beyonce

44
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 3: requested all of her fans all of the concert goers

45
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 3: wear silvery much approached it low key because if you've

46
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 3: been following me or listening to this podcast for a while,

47
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 3: you know that I'm a gold girl through and through.

48
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 3: I don't own any piece of silver jewelry. Like I'm

49
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: such a gold girl that my engagement ring is gold.

50
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: Like I told Fernando, do not buy me silver, I

51
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: will not wear it. So anyway, when Beyonce requested everyone

52
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 3: wear silver chrome for Virgo season for the rest of

53
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: the Renaissance tour, I approached it very low key. I

54
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 3: was like, I'll do one silver piece because I'm not

55
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 3: going to rewear any of this, and I'm just that's

56
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 3: just going to be the best that I can do.

57
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: And then I'm randomly shopping at Target for my target

58
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: needs and I see these silver cargo pants that honestly

59
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: look like foil. They look like aluminum foil, and I

60
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 3: texted Mala, and I was like, should I buy these?

61
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: And immediately she goes, yes, you need them. And then

62
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 3: I realized I was approaching this all wrong, Like this

63
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: was not the concert the event to be low key at,

64
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 3: because everybody was going to be dressed up. People were

65
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 3: handmaking their costumes, people were showing up. Mala herself wore

66
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 3: an actual costume, so this was not the time to

67
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: be like cute and precious about it. Of like, I'm

68
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: not silver, so I'm just gonna do something low key.

69
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: No.

70
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: Queen Beyonce asked us to show up in silver and

71
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: to show out in silver, so we did.

72
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: Yes. She said that she wanted us to create a

73
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: human disco ball. Essentially, she wanted to see a sea

74
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: of chrome. And what I loved was how everybody sort

75
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: of embodied kind of a different song off of the

76
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: Renaissance album. So I feel like you were embodying Cozy Yes,

77
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: And it was so cute. And then I did get

78
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 2: like a space cadet like costume, and so I was

79
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 2: alien superstar with the chrome cowboy boots that I'm wearing

80
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 2: right now as we speak, like we're still we're still

81
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: feeling that residual renaissance for sure, for sure. And there's

82
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: like this one fan who's been dressing up like hardcore

83
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: as an alien, yes, and going to all the cities.

84
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it. And then I've seen

85
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: some Church Girl adaptations as well. Everybody's you know, kind

86
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: of playing with their take on it. So we were

87
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: for de losk covering the event, and what we did

88
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 2: was we were interviewing fans in line, asking them about

89
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 2: their outfits. They're both gas, but we were also asking

90
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 2: fans what their favorite Beyonce lyric is and if they

91
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 2: could recite it in Spanish. So fun everybody tried their

92
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 2: best to translate the lyrics into Spanish and it was

93
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 2: a hoot and a half. And it was actually really

94
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: funny because we were having a hard time finding Spanish

95
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: speakers in the line.

96
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 3: It's so true, you know, it got to the point

97
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 3: where I was like, does nobody speak Spanish in Los Angeles?

98
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 3: Where are we? It was so funny and had a

99
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: really good astute observation about you know, how we were

100
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 3: approaching it, because you know, essentially we were seeing glam

101
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 3: the Hannahs everywhere, like the botas the hats. We were

102
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 3: I think maybe confused because we're like, wait, maybe that

103
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: person speaks Spanish. Honestly, we were asking anyone and everyone.

104
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: We weren't going off of oh they look a certain way.

105
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,799
Speaker 3: It was more so like they look approachable, they look good.

106
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 3: Let's see, right, and well, nobody speaks Spanish. Apparently we

107
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 3: did get a couple of good ones.

108
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 2: We did, Yeah, we did, we did. If you hit

109
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,559
Speaker 2: up the loss social media pages, so it's at the

110
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Times, on instagramrails and on TikTok, you'll see

111
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 2: our video up there. We interview folks and a lot

112
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: of people took a good crack at it at translating

113
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: their interviews, and it was really funny because the lyrics

114
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 2: do not translate into Spanish.

115
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 3: No no, And that's the whole point, because it really

116
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 3: does kind of stump you unless you're like really creative

117
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 3: enroll with it. Like one of the women that we

118
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 3: interviewed said, espita and it beats, which is not correct,

119
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: but like solid effort, and I got what she meant.

120
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: It worked, It worked, It worked, and you know what,

121
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: it's almost like, Okay, it's like disco renaissance. Pico Lana

122
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: is how people were dressed.

123
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: So it's so true.

124
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: You know.

125
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 3: I'm very interested by the fact that there's kind of

126
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 3: an overlap between style and global artists right now. For example,

127
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 3: like if you look at pictures from the Eras tour,

128
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift's tour and you see beyonce Renaissance tour, some

129
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 3: of the fashion is the same. And if you look

130
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 3: at Gottogee's tour, it's a little more neon, right, but

131
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: hats boots, neon chrome glitter, and so I think it's

132
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: very interesting what's happening with the concert looks. There's just

133
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 3: something there that I haven't identified yet, but there's a

134
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 3: thread that I'm trying to pull.

135
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Southwest is having a moment for sure, like

136
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 2: Texas is having a big moment. I mean, Megan the

137
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 2: Stallion a couple of years ago now I think was

138
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: doing a lot more Texas Houston looks. And then of course,

139
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: like Beyonce and Megan both being from Texas like that,

140
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: the South I think aesthetically is just it right now,

141
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: like people are really tapping into it. I think these

142
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 2: things come and go in waves for sure. Yeah, and

143
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: then even like a few years ago, like what Lady

144
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 2: Gaga with her Joanne album, right she was wearing a

145
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 2: hat and it was a little bit Southwestern. So yeah,

146
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: that's just like the vibe right now. And I think

147
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: it's really interesting.

148
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's interesting to track the fashion and how

149
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 3: concerts or how just artists can have so much influence

150
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 3: right overculture, especially someone as incredible and has stood the

151
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 3: test of time, has had a career of twenty six years,

152
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 3: like Beyonce, can really influence. It's just how we move,

153
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 3: how we show up, how we enjoy things. And Beyonce

154
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 3: has been performing for twenty six years, and like Mala said,

155
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 3: like we've never known a world without her, whether that

156
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 3: be through Destiny's Child or her solo career, Beyonce has

157
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 3: always been like a pop star, a star, an R

158
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 3: and B star, a star of the girl group, Like

159
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: she's always a movie star. She's always been around in

160
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 3: that way for us.

161
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: I mean starting I first came to know Beyonce through

162
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 2: Destiny's Child. She's lead singer, she's killing it. I remember

163
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 2: Bill's Bill's bills. I remember No No, No, I remember survivor.

164
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 3: Do you remember when Destiny's Child, when it was four

165
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 3: of them, they had a cameo they had didn't have

166
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: a cameo. They had an episode on this show on

167
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 3: Disney Channel called Smart Guy.

168
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 2: Yes, I used to love a Smart.

169
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 3: Guy and I loved that episode so much. They perform

170
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 3: No No No in that TV show, and that was

171
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 3: I think one of my first times like remembering her

172
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 3: and recognizing like this is Destiny's Child.

173
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: Yes, I love that episode. There's kind of like Beyonce

174
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 2: has kind of like a love storyline in it. Yes,

175
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 2: I love taj Maury. Yes, he was incredible in that show,

176
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 2: so fun and I miss that. Like Disney Channel shows

177
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: would do those cameos with pop stars, with singers, recording artists,

178
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: and that episode was always like a fun standout episode

179
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 2: and when the star like first appears on the show,

180
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: they allow for that like extended applause break, you know,

181
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: like from the live studio audience.

182
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 3: That's so true. Yeah, that was a moment in sitcom

183
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 3: Disney Channel history.

184
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 2: Yes, I love that.

185
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 3: And with Destiny's Child, you know, then it became from

186
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 3: the four, it became the three who we now know

187
00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 3: as like Kelly, Michelle, Beyonce, the core. Yes, Destin's Child.

188
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 2: Grew the trinity. Yes, they and that was the perfect formula.

189
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 2: I think that. The first piece of media that Relea

190
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: stood out to me from Destiny's Child was the same

191
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 2: my Name music video, right, you know, with like the

192
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: colors and the choreo, just a killer music video and

193
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: such like of the time.

194
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 3: You know, absolutely, I mean I definitely went through a

195
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 3: Destiny's Child fandom. I remember having you know, there was

196
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 3: a time where you would, you know, you would buy

197
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 3: magazines and there were teen magazines. Yeah, magazines geared towards teenagers,

198
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: towards tweens. And I remember kind of just collecting the

199
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 3: Destiny's Child photos and I would put them all up

200
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 3: on my wall. So I had a whole like little

201
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 3: Destiny's Child wall, and I would like just collect their

202
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 3: photos and had just a little like wall of adoration

203
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 3: for them.

204
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 2: Hell yeah.

205
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 3: And then I went to my first Destiny's Child concert

206
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 3: and that was destiny fulfilled. So I went to their final,

207
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 3: their farewell concert.

208
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 2: What was that? Like?

209
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: That was incredible. I had to have been in middle

210
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 3: I was definitely in middle school, like seventh eighth grade,

211
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 3: and my brother took me with his wife, my sister

212
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 3: in law, and I just remember, I can't don't remember

213
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 3: where it was. It definitely was at one of the

214
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 3: big venues here in LA. But it was just incredible,

215
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 3: like to see the chemistry, Like I can still see

216
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 3: it in my mind, and I remember because it was

217
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,479
Speaker 3: destiny fulfilled, so I've remembered the songs that they performed,

218
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 3: but it just being such an incredible experience. Like I've

219
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 3: been seeing Beyonce perform live since I was a kid,

220
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,959
Speaker 3: which is wild because I'm still seeing her now at

221
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 3: twenty nine.

222
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 2: Her staying power is like unlike anybody else. I mean,

223
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: it really is remarkable how long her career has been

224
00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 2: and how strong it's been, like with no like dips

225
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 2: or like she doesn't completely disappear. There's no like, oh

226
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 2: she's making a comeback. It's just it's just continuing to

227
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: elevate and level up and get better and better and better,

228
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 2: which is so wild that she's had that momentum for

229
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 2: such a long time, Like it's so unheard of, honestly.

230
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's funny because she's cultivated such a strong audience,

231
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 3: right like the behive where they start to like recognize

232
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,119
Speaker 3: signs like wait, she took all the photos off her Instagram.

233
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 3: Something's coming, something's happening, you know, And like the Beeha

234
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 3: I feel is very clever in that way where they

235
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 3: just like look for a little cues and they try

236
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 3: to kind of figure out what's next, even though we'll

237
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 3: never know what's next. But there's like definitely people that

238
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: have There are definitely people that spend their time, you know,

239
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 3: watching like her moves and trying to figure out like

240
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 3: when she's going to drop something new or looking for

241
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: clues and all those things. And so yeah, I feel

242
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 3: like there's everyone knows this right, there's no fandom like

243
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 3: the Beehive.

244
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 2: There really is. There's no fandom like the Beehive. And

245
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: I think in a also like in a good way

246
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 2: because like the barbs like Nikki, like that fandom can

247
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 2: be very notorious for kind of bad behavior, like being

248
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,560
Speaker 2: real petty and nasty. Sometimes I used to be a

249
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 2: barb like Roman's Revenge, like when Nicki first came out,

250
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: like of course, you know what I mean, itty bitty piggy,

251
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: all that good stuff. Phil in myself. Yes, over the years,

252
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: Nicki has waned for me. I don't feel the same

253
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 2: way about Nikki as I once did, but Beyonce I

254
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 2: continue to gain greater appreciation for her as time goes on.

255
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I think, you know, she has really managed

256
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 3: to show us her craft in very very explicit ways,

257
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 3: and she lets us in when she wants us to

258
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 3: come in, like she did with the Netflix special Homecoming,

259
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 3: and we really got to see like what it takes

260
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: to put on this Coachella for performance, right, and it's

261
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 3: like months, months and months and months of performing for

262
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: this one hour show.

263
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Beachella groundbreaking, earth shattering, like dimension shifting, you know,

264
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 2: like that was an experience. I wasn't there, but I

265
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 2: was streaming, right, we were all streaming. It was incredible.

266
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: I mean, she also has really evolved as an artist

267
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: over the years, like she's never, for me, fallen flat.

268
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 2: And what I love right now is that people are

269
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: sort of reviewing her career on TikTok. I see a

270
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 2: lot of old clips from her Destiny's Child days, and

271
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 2: like the ongoing commentary is about how much she has

272
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 2: improved as a vocalist, and those early clips she sounds great,

273
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 2: but you can see that the breath control is not

274
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: the same, and like her control is not the same,

275
00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 2: and now she's just like this unstoppable, like impeccable singer,

276
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: and for me, Renaissance was a lot of like her

277
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: really flexing how much of a vocalist she is, because

278
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: it's so fast and she's saying so many lyrics and

279
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 2: the lyrics are very like involved in complex on the

280
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 2: Renaissance album. And for years we've been talking about how

281
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: our favorite rapper is Beyonce, Yeah, because the girl can rap.

282
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 2: And so I really feel like Renaissance was it was

283
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 2: about the visuals and it was really like highlighting her

284
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 2: vocal prowess.

285
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, I mean I think because she also

286
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 3: what I agree with you completely, she was flexing her

287
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 3: vocal range. I think by her starting the Renaissance tour

288
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: with by singing Dangerously in Love was to show us

289
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 3: like I have range.

290
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can do this.

291
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 3: In case you forgot, I've been doing this because that

292
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 3: song Dangerously and Love is from her first solo album.

293
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, and Dangerously in Love. That was my first No,

294
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 2: I want to say I got that like for like

295
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,479
Speaker 2: my thirteenth birthday. Like that album. I feel like it

296
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 2: came out that year and it was sort of like, oh,

297
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 2: like you're a you're like a teenager. Now here's your

298
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 2: Beyonce CD.

299
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: That's so funny.

300
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, so you're right. She opened with ballads, yes,

301
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 2: and which was not a choice that I was expecting necessarily.

302
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: I was sort of I don't know what I was expecting.

303
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 2: I wasn't really expecting anything.

304
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 3: Me either, because you can't. I mean, you can watch

305
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 3: what people say on TikTok, of course, right, but once

306
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: you experience it firsthand, you really can't have expectations for

307
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: a performer like Beyonce because she's gonna like keep things fresh,

308
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 3: even if she's on a worldwide tour, She's gonna shake

309
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 3: things up each time she performs.

310
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, she changes up her outfits. I think the even

311
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 2: her runs and the way she's performing, she is constantly

312
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 2: moving things around and playing with things. Is what it

313
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 2: looks like based on the TikTok clips we're seeing based

314
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 2: on the overviews. But yeah, and then, notably, at the

315
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 2: Santa Clara tour stop, Beyonce was named honorary Mayor of

316
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 2: the day.

317
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 3: What can an honorary mayor even do? Is it just

318
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 3: is it just optics? Is it just like Beyonce's fucking.

319
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 2: Maryor today, She's just the mayor today. Yes, I love it.

320
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: I love it. I think it's so funny and then

321
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: so Marcella Arguayo has been talking about this in her

322
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 2: recent shows. You know that Beyonce just stood there in

323
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 2: concert and said I'm the mayor. Like that's it. What

324
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: a statement.

325
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: I love that.

326
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,479
Speaker 2: I feel like that clip of her saying I'm the

327
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: mayor could be legendary, Like could be legendary like Marilyn

328
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 2: Monroe singing Happy Birthday to jfk Oh.

329
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 3: Fascinating, you know, just that moment, that's a good comparison,

330
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 3: the mayor Beyonce.

331
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's great. So she just continues to

332
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 2: surprise this and shaking awe. And then at Beyonce's birthday

333
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 2: concert here in La we didn't go to the birthday concert.

334
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 2: We thought about it.

335
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,439
Speaker 3: We went tonight too, which was Saturday. And when I

336
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 3: tell you that Sunday morning, I was looking for birthday

337
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 3: tickets to see her perform again. It was that good.

338
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 2: It was so good.

339
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 3: I've never left a concert and thought I need to

340
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 3: see this again the same weekend. Like I've gone to

341
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 3: concerts my entire life. I've seen a ton of artists perform,

342
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 3: incredible artists perform. I've never walked away feeling like, wow,

343
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 3: I need more I want to see that again. That

344
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 3: was so incredible. I will never be the same. We're

345
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 3: literally it was literally what I said, I will never

346
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 3: be the same.

347
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pre Renaissance, post Renaissance.

348
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 3: Yes.

349
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 2: And what's fascinating is I feel like I have felt

350
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 2: that way each time I have seen Beyonce, Like I

351
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 2: saw the Formation World Tour and then I went to

352
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 2: on the Round and each time and including Renaissance right afterwards,

353
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, just her mind, yeah, her mind. And it

354
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 2: always gets me like how how physical she is, Like

355
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 2: she's dancing the entire time and like full out, like

356
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: full out choreo, right, and her mic is on, she's singing.

357
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 3: Her mic is on. And something I've noticed is that

358
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 3: she holds a mic. She's not wearing a head a

359
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 3: head piece. She is holding the mic and she's been

360
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 3: doing this for years because I've also been watching older

361
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,239
Speaker 3: performances now, and I think there's something really intentional, like

362
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 3: she as an artist, she knows something like she's going

363
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 3: to hold the mic for a reason, and I feel

364
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 3: like it's obviously a very intentional choice because she's dancing

365
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 3: one handed.

366
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 2: Yes, she's dancing one handed, and she's like handing the

367
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 2: mic to her backup dancers, They're handing the mic back

368
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 2: to her. She's doing her dance breaks, she's dancing with

369
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: mike in hand, She's going between like ballads and wrapping,

370
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: and so her mic placement is all over the place,

371
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 2: like she has utmost control of everything like that's going

372
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: on at any time, and it's really incredible. And what

373
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 2: I think is really interesting is, you know, she sings

374
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,719
Speaker 2: a lot of Renaissance is very disco oriented, disco house

375
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 2: and voguing and all of that like combined. And I

376
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 2: think a lot of the like disco divas of the past,

377
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 2: they were incredible singers and vocalists, but they didn't really

378
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 2: dance like while they were performing. But Beyonce brings that

379
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 2: into her shows. And it just like we've all heard

380
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 2: those stories of when she was coming up, how her

381
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 2: dad would have them running on the treadmill and singing,

382
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 2: and I just feel like that has stuck with her,

383
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 2: you know, as an artist, she has always like incorporated

384
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: physicality with her vocals, which I think is one of

385
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: those things that people are going to be talking about

386
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 2: and writing about Free Years that like really sets her

387
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 2: apart truly from everybody.

388
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 3: You took the words right out of my mouth. That's

389
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 3: exactly what I was going to say. It sets her

390
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 3: apart in that way way because there's a lot there

391
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,199
Speaker 3: are a lot of incredible dancers and performers. There are

392
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 3: a lot of great singers in our lifetime and before us.

393
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 3: But to have them both combined, I think is rare

394
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 3: at the caliber that she does it, and I think

395
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 3: that that's exactly right that it sets her apart from

396
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: the other artist.

397
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 2: And she performed for like three straight hours.

398
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: It was wild.

399
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 2: There were breaks, of course for costume changes. She incorporated

400
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 2: a lot of short film, a lot of video, which

401
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 2: I thought was really cool and as we've seen over

402
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 2: the years, Beyonce Love's film and video, I mean, the

403
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 2: Lemonade album was a visual album, and it really like

404
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 2: what made that album stand out so hard were the visuals.

405
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 2: So I love that she continues with that. And I

406
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: also loved how she had a lot of like mechanics

407
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 2: and like big moving set pieces.

408
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, giant props. To think what it takes to make them.

409
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, to store them and to bring them out.

410
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 2: I mean the stage, the way that it was set

411
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 2: up and the way entrances and exits happened was really

412
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 2: cool and elaborate. And to think that she takes that

413
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 2: all over the country, like city to city, I mean

414
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 2: her operation. We were like talking about it, like how

415
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 2: many millions do you think? Like each stop costs.

416
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 3: Right, and it's not just here in the US. It's

417
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 3: been a global tour. So adding factoring that in as

418
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 3: well of just what it takes to have a show

419
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 3: of this magnitude really running totally shout out operations manager,

420
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 3: whoever you.

421
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 2: Are, the team, the team.

422
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 3: She does have her team from dancers to crew, like

423
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 3: listed on her website like if anyone is curious, she

424
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 3: does like fully credit everyone that's worked on this tour.

425
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 2: Massive team, Yes, massive operation. I mean the costumes alone.

426
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 2: And I just whenever every time there's a break and

427
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 2: then they come out with new costumes and it's all

428
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 2: the dancers and it's Beyonce and it's the musicians. I

429
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 2: just think about like backstage right and those costume changes

430
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 2: and they have quick sixty seconds, ninety seconds whatever totally

431
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 2: and I wonder like is it chaos back there? Is

432
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 2: it organized chaos? Like what's the vibe? Like are people yelling?

433
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 2: Are people freaking out, a crying Yeah, are buttons missing?

434
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

435
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 2: What's like what happens if you're missing an item?

436
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 3: My anxiety couldn't handle it, girl, Like just like the

437
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 3: type of stage stuff that we do, which is at

438
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 3: an incredibly smaller scale, Yeah, you know, like I would

439
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: be a nervous wreck.

440
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 2: It's so many moving parts.

441
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 3: So many moving parts, one hundred percent.

442
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 2: And then occasionally you come across the clip because there's

443
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 2: been one or two where it's like, oh no, Beyonce's

444
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 2: mic wasn't on, Kendrick's mic wasn't on right, and then like, okay,

445
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 2: who was responded? Who's in charge of that?

446
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 3: Scared?

447
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 2: I'm terrible, terrified.

448
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 3: I'm terrified. I feel like obviously we don't know Beyonce, right,

449
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 3: but I feel like Beyonce is like probably a good boss,

450
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 3: but like you have to get it done correctly, boss,

451
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 3: or like you're out do the job.

452
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: Just you.

453
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 3: It's one of the it's one of those things where

454
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 3: it's like you have one job, turn the mic on,

455
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 3: you know, and I'm sure at this scale there's like

456
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 3: multiple people, but yeah, it's like, just.

457
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 2: Do your job because Beyonce is gonna show up and

458
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 2: do her job perfectly.

459
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 3: Yes she does.

460
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 2: She has every time. Beyonce is always on beat, So

461
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 2: what's your excuse? What's going on?

462
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 3: It's true. Those are one of my favorite things. Compilation

463
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 3: videos to see online where it's Beyonce dancing and they

464
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 3: someone will put literally a different song and it's Beyonce

465
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: is always on beat? Will she to what? It doesn't

466
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 3: matter what song it is. It can be a gorrillo,

467
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 3: it can be and she's always on beat, always on beat,

468
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter.

469
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 2: She always translates, it always crosses over. It just always works.

470
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 3: It's amazing. It's amazing. And you know, I feel like

471
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 3: a lot of people have been talking about, of course

472
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 3: we're like kind of in a recession, but no one

473
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,719
Speaker 3: has really said, we haven't named it officially, right. Beyonce

474
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 3: has also in some ways like boosted the economy her

475
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 3: and other performers like Taylor Swift and the release of

476
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 3: the Barbie film, which tells you, like, pay attention to

477
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 3: women's interest. Obviously, but so The New York Times did

478
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 3: a report on how Beyonce's requests that everyone wears silver

479
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:28,719
Speaker 3: really fueled Etsy prices because a lot of small businesses,

480
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 3: you know, have their little sites on Etsy and make

481
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 3: silver blouses, disco hats, fans, everything that you can imagine silver.

482
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 3: And people started going in droves like requesting and ordering,

483
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 3: and so they reported these different small businesses that they

484
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 3: saw a spike in both searches for and sales of

485
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 3: silver clothing and accessories like also disco ball earrings, like

486
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 3: cowboy hats. Like I said, so Beyonce is helping the

487
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 3: economy all in all, is what I'm saying.

488
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 2: Oh, totally. I mean, it's so indicative of her influence. Yeah,

489
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 2: she told people to war silver. Everybody went out and

490
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 2: wore silver, and I'm pretty sure and this was kind

491
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 2: of confirmed in line when we were interviewing people. Folks

492
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 2: had other outfits planned and then when she made that announcement,

493
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 2: they went out and bought different outfits.

494
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, as soon as that request went out, like I

495
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: had in my inbox, you know, the brands that I'm

496
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 3: subscribed to were sending emails like get your silver outfit here,

497
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 3: And it was wild to see how it shifted and

498
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 3: like just so quickly and like people caught on and

499
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 3: really had to change maybe what they had planned for

500
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 3: the week as a brand, right that they had to

501
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 3: get the silver yeah out in front of everybody.

502
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: Absolutely. I think the mute challenge is also so interesting

503
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: because in the middle of a concert, to get the

504
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 2: entire stadium to be quiet, and then like it's an expectation, right,

505
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 2: like the crowd is enforcing it and managing other crowd

506
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: members because we want the whole stadium quiet, Like honestly,

507
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 2: when in the history of any concert ever has the

508
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 2: entire stadium been silent? And then she recreates that over

509
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 2: and over and over again, like it's hard to get

510
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 2: people to be quiet.

511
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then it's that expectation of like, we can't

512
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,719
Speaker 3: upset her, we have to get it done, we have

513
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 3: to impress her. Yes, you know my cousin we went

514
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 3: with to the concert. We went with two of my cousins,

515
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 3: and my prima texted me like, we have to impress Beyonce,

516
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 3: like we have to shut the fuck up when she

517
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 3: tells us to write yeah yeah. And it's just so

518
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 3: funny that again, that expectation that of everyone to be

519
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 3: quiet in a stadium of eighty thousand people, and it's

520
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 3: like hit or miss depending where you go. And I think,

521
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 3: also what section you're in in yeah, because I thought

522
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 3: night too when we were there, did really well. But

523
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 3: then I see people they were also there at night too,

524
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 3: post their videos and it doesn't sound the same. So

525
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 3: I just feel like this the stadium is so big,

526
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 3: and the acoustics that like the way sound travels, you

527
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 3: know when a big stadium full of people, like it

528
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 3: could be quiet to us, but it's loud over here.

529
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 2: Oh no, yeah, I'm fully I was fully convinced, like,

530
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 2: oh my god, we did.

531
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 3: I was fully convinced we did a great job. And

532
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 3: then I get on TikTok and Twitter and everyone's like,

533
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 3: y'all fucked up?

534
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 2: How embarrassed?

535
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 3: I know, No, we didn't win, not La. My like

536
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 3: competitive perfectionist side is like, what do you mean we

537
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 3: didn't win?

538
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? And then it's like, you know, Beyonce, as she

539
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: said in her in the concert at Renaissance, She's like,

540
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 2: I live in LA and then she chose to have

541
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 2: her birthday in La. So it's like, we have to

542
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: show up and show out. We have to do it right.

543
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: Because it seemed kind of special. Yeah, you know, totally

544
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 2: like the stop at Sofi.

545
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it being at Inglewood, it was a big deal.

546
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 2: It was a big deal. I'd never been to SOFI

547
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 2: before Beautiful Stadium, and I honestly felt like the aesthetic

548
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 2: of the stadium, it's very futuristic, and I just feel

549
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: like it lent itself to the type of show that

550
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 2: we saw, Like it just worked really well. The venue

551
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 2: and renaissance was a happy it was a happy marriage.

552
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 3: I agree. I agree completely. That was I think my

553
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 3: third time at SOFI and definitely, I mean, yeah, without

554
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 3: a doubt, my favorite time. You can't really cannot talk Beyonce.

555
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 2: No. I hate to be like, what is she going

556
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 2: to do next? Because she's still on tour, right, it's

557
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 2: not done. When is the final stop? When is it

558
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 2: going to be over?

559
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 3: I think the final stop is in Houston, if I'm

560
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 3: not mistaken, either in Houston or New Orleans, but it's

561
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 3: definitely going to be in the South. Is the final stop?

562
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 3: And there are you know again the behive speculating. So

563
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 3: apparently Meg the Stallion was headlining a music festival, but

564
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 3: she's no longer on the lineup, and that because the

565
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 3: dates matched up with Beyonce being in Houston. So people

566
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 3: are already speculating like, oh, she was pulled from the

567
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 3: lineup because Beyonce requested Meg be in Houston, which makes sense. Yes,

568
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 3: And so again the way the Beehive can just like

569
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: investigate and like pull these pieces together and like we'll

570
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 3: see what happens, right, We'll see if it's true. But

571
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 3: it makes sense.

572
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 2: It does make sense, and how exciting. I know, I mean,

573
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 2: what a guest, what I mean, like that stadium is

574
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 2: gonna explode if she brings out Megan girl.

575
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 3: I was even thinking like cause she I don't know

576
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 3: if it's this weekend, but she's gonna be in Seattle.

577
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 3: So by the time this comes out, maybe that'll concert

578
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 3: will have already passed. But I was even thinking, like

579
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 3: do we go to Seattle?

580
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 2: You know, like we follow her?

581
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 3: Do we follow her till the end of the tour?

582
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 3: Because it was just that good And if you had

583
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 3: the privilege of going, like you know what we're talking

584
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 3: because if there's one thing we're not going to tolerate

585
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 3: here is Beyonce slander haters. No, because it's one thing

586
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,239
Speaker 3: like Okay, you don't vibe with her music, maybe it's

587
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 3: not your thing, but you can't discredit the talent.

588
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 2: You can't.

589
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 3: You're just being a hater.

590
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's she's she's legend status and really

591
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 2: like very unimpeachable. You know, she has worked so hard

592
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 2: to like keep it to the work and keep it

593
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 2: to the music. There's been personal stuff here and there

594
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 2: along the way, but I think that she has had

595
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 2: such like a water tight grip on her pr and

596
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 2: on her public image and the things that we have

597
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 2: access to as a public I think she has a

598
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 2: lot of control. Absolutely, she super super highly curates everything

599
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: that we see from her, and she really I think

600
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 2: that that that is one of the reasons why she's

601
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 2: been around for so long, Like she's not embroiled in

602
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 2: like wild public scandal because what she shares with us

603
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 2: is not her personal stuff. It's the personal things that

604
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 2: have influenced the art. Yes, you know, so like we

605
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 2: knew about the jay Z cheating and doing all that stuff,

606
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 2: but because she turned it into a groundbreaking visual album

607
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 2: that changed the course of pop culture and history as

608
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 2: we know it. But that's why we know about him, Yes,

609
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 2: because of how she chose to tell us. Yeah.

610
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, because for years people have you know, speculated and

611
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 3: rumors and this and that, and she never publicly addressed it.

612
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 3: She doesn't have to, No, but for her to then

613
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 3: turn it into this huge album and then it guess

614
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 3: what it ends with redemption because Beyonce's not going to

615
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 3: divorce that man. She's not. She loves that man. Yes,

616
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 3: I have a conspiracy theory that she has a girlfriend.

617
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 3: I just think Renaissance is too queer for her to not.

618
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 3: It's not just I'm an ally and I'm appreciator of

619
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 3: ball culture. It's I have insider knowledge. I have my

620
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 3: own conspiracy theory that she has a girlfriend or she's

621
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 3: like had a love that's a woman. And these are

622
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 3: things we'll never get confirmation of, Like Beyonce is going

623
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 3: to be in a seemingly heteronormative marriage until maybe she

624
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 3: decides no. But in my little queer heart, like this

625
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 3: album is a little.

626
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 2: Tell Okay, she's like pointing she has she's giving you signs. Yes,

627
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 2: there's signs pointing to queer. I wouldn't doubt it at all.

628
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: And I think it's one of those things that she is,

629
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 2: Like you said, she's only gonna ever tell us through

630
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 2: the art and in her own way. Yes, And it's

631
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 2: up to us to interpret and to read it and

632
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 2: to see it. And I think she loves clues like

633
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: she loves a good clue. She loves a good mystery.

634
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 2: She loves to tease us, she loves to play with us,

635
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,720
Speaker 2: and she loves to let us know that. Like she's

636
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 2: online and she's watching.

637
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 3: Yes, she is watching, and she yeah, I agree.

638
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 2: She knows.

639
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 3: She knows the chatter. She really does. She can keep

640
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 3: up with it. Like you know, there was a con

641
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 3: spiracy theory many years ago that she was the head

642
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 3: of the Illuminati, right, and then what does she do?

643
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 3: She puts that in a song, right, like she knows.

644
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 2: And you are corny with your illuminati mass It is corny.

645
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,240
Speaker 3: It is. It's absolutely corny.

646
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 2: Like in what world? Like, come on, be serious. Yes,

647
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 2: she doesn't have time for all of that.

648
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 3: No, I mean I even had someone tell me I

649
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 3: haven't shared this on air, and I'm gonna change the

650
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 3: details a little bit. It's it'll be fact, but I'm

651
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 3: not going to include any any specifics about this person.

652
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 3: But someone was telling me that they were actually selling

653
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 3: their Beyonce tickets and I'm like, oh why, I mean,

654
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 3: Renaissance was like there was so hard to get tickets,

655
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 3: like why would you sell them? And she goes, yeah,

656
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,359
Speaker 3: they're even floor seats, and I'm like, oh, well, why

657
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 3: are you selling them? And she goes, you know, I

658
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 3: just she Beyonce is a Satanist.

659
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 2: Oh my, she's of the.

660
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: She's of the occult. Like she just had like all

661
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 3: these conspiracy theories and she was telling me them, and

662
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 3: I was just sitting there like, oh, you're so far

663
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 3: gone the TikTok rabbit hole. I can't even pull you

664
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 3: out of it. And I was not in a position

665
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,280
Speaker 3: to really challenge her, Like physically, I could not challenge

666
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:12,720
Speaker 3: this person.

667
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: I like to ask questions.

668
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 3: And so the reason I'm also sharing is because I

669
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 3: kind of want to turn this into a story, so like,

670
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 3: well we'll talk about that later maybe, But I also

671
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 3: don't want, you know, I don't want to publicly say

672
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 3: who this person is. But anyway, the point is like,

673
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,479
Speaker 3: if there's one, there's many, right, and like she didn't

674
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 3: make this theory up on herself by herself, and so again,

675
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,439
Speaker 3: like it it goes to show I think like when

676
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 3: a woman like Beyonce, a black woman like Beyonce, reaches

677
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 3: this like status, this legendary status, it's like, oh, there

678
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 3: has to be outside external factors, like an illuminati to

679
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 3: make her so powerful as opposed to how hard working

680
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: and talented she is.

681
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it can't just be Oh no, millions of people

682
00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 2: throughout the globe love her right, she is universally adored

683
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 2: and it's so real, like it is a character flaw

684
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 2: and not like beyond like to You're like, I feel

685
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 2: like people who don't like Beyonce are on some hater

686
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 2: on some hater stuff, you know. It's like and and

687
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 2: the reasons that they don't like her are always like weird,

688
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 2: like the one you just shared, and based like not

689
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: in reality. No, Like they have to invent a reason

690
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,959
Speaker 2: not to like her, which I also find interesting because

691
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 2: they can't say that she can't sing. No, you can't

692
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 2: hate on her for her vocals. They can't say she's ugly.

693
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 2: She's like one of the most beautiful women ever. You

694
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 2: can't say that she can't dance, Like, what else can

695
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 2: you say about her? You have to invent, you know,

696
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 2: like some weird reason, which I think is says a

697
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 2: lot in and of itself.

698
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, I think it says more about the other

699
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 3: person that's claiming that this person is not telling it

700
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 3: or not worthy of all the accolades they've received. I

701
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 3: also want to share this anecdote as we wrap up

702
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 3: that when I was young, I was in middle school.

703
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 3: I was a little girl, and Beyonce had a perfume

704
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 3: with Tommy Hill figure. Okay, and Beyonce at this time

705
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 3: was like superstar, but she wasn't the Beyonce we know now, right,

706
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 3: So she did to promote this perfume. She did a

707
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 3: stop at the Lakewood Mall dead and so she was

708
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 3: there at Macy's. And so who went. I did with

709
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 3: my mother at five am, and my best friend Jackie

710
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 3: and her mother and the four of us were there

711
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 3: standing in line at Macy's waiting for Beyonce, and there

712
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 3: was a little meet and greet, and so I was

713
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,479
Speaker 3: so shy and nervous seeing this beautiful human in front

714
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 3: of me. So I remember meeting her. She signed my

715
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 3: little perfume, and I think I just said, I love

716
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 3: you so much. I'm such a destined child fan, like

717
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 3: thank you for everything, like you know, just like very

718
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 3: few words came out of my mouth. And I remember

719
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 3: at the time thinking she was just so like she

720
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 3: was so small, she was like larger than life obviously,

721
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 3: but I feel like she has such this big persona

722
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 3: right that you're you're like, she's going to be seven

723
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 3: feet tall, right, and then you meet her and she's

724
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 3: like this beautiful, tiny person. I don't remember, but and

725
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 3: I was also young, so to me, I was like

726
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 3: maybe I because I was a kid, I thought she

727
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 3: was going to be so so tall and she's like

728
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,240
Speaker 3: a big, a big adult, you know. But I remember

729
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 3: thinking like, she's like this tiny person and she's so beautiful.

730
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: Like five three d.

731
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 3: She has to be tiny. Let's look it up.

732
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 2: What is.

733
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: Is this five seven?

734
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 2: No?

735
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,240
Speaker 3: But she I mean maybe I pictured her to be taller,

736
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 3: but I don't know. I was also young, but I

737
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 3: remember thinking like this woman is small, like in in

738
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:01,280
Speaker 3: an endearing.

739
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 1: Way, you know, and like, oh.

740
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 3: You're so like humaniful human. Yes, you're a person, You're

741
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 3: a person. Wait sorry, hold on, there's no actual clear.

742
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 2: No one knows, no one knows, I screaming.

743
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 3: There's speculation between five two and five seven, so she

744
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 3: could be any height.

745
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 2: I love that there's speculation.

746
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 3: Nobody knows.

747
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 2: See, she doesn't tell us if she doesn't want us

748
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 2: to know. If she wanted us to know, the information

749
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 2: would be out there.

750
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:30,760
Speaker 3: We know that she has double d's.

751
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 2: Of course that she's like you to know that, you

752
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 2: need to know that I have double D.

753
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 3: Well, if I had small boobs, which I do, and

754
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 3: then I became a double D, I would be telling

755
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 3: everybody also, yeah, I'd be double D deosa Like.

756
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 2: I love that.

757
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 3: She's always the like love. She's never been like a

758
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 3: size A like me, but like you know, when she

759
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 3: became a mother and got those double d's, like she

760
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 3: was letting everybody know.

761
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely. She's been very proud of her post baby body.

762
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 2: I think she really embraces the mom curves, which is great.

763
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 2: I love her as a mom. She's so cute. She

764
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 2: loves her kids so much. You can tell she's just

765
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 2: like so excited, yeah, to have her little family, her

766
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 2: fifty eleven children. As she says.

767
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 3: So Beyonce is the greatest performer ever of all time.

768
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 3: I think that that's a good place to end. But

769
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 3: before we end, I didn't want to do a little

770
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 3: flash around with Mala. What was your first Beyonce concert?

771
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 2: My first Beyonce concert was definitely it was It had

772
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 2: to be on the run. Was that before Formation?

773
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:40,919
Speaker 3: Yes?

774
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 2: Yeah?

775
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 3: No, no, No, Formation was first, No on the Run

776
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:44,879

779
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 2: I've seen her twice at the Rose Bowl and then

780
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 2: now it's so Fi and yeah, that's it. That's that's

781
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 2: I hope to continue seeing her.

782
00:41:59,200 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 3: We will.

783
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna keep going. I mean as long as

00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 2: she puts on shows like we gotta go. Yeah, how

785
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 2: about you.

786
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 3: My first one was the Verizon Ladies Tour and that

787
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 3: was dangerously in Love I think, but she wasn't she

788
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 3: wasn't touring solo yet, so it was with Missy Elliott

789
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,879
Speaker 3: and Alicia Keys. Stop it, I can't believe I went.

790
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 3: I like, can't even believe that that was a real

791
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 3: Like I'm like, did I make that up? No, it

792
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 3: was a real concert. And my brother took me.

793
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 2: Where was that?

794
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 3: It was an Anaheim at the Honda Civic Center, Nice

795
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 3: And that was my first Beyonce concert. And then from there,

796
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 3: like I've gone to I think I've only missed one concert,

797
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 3: but I've gone to all of them. I went to

798
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,879
Speaker 3: Sasha Fears, I went. There've been to a bunch of them.

799
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,240
Speaker 2: Yes, what an era, what a time, such a good era.

800
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: And yeah, she's one of those people where it doesn't

801
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 3: matter what happens. If she's gonna be on tour, I'm

802
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,720
Speaker 3: going to try to get tickets. There's very few people

803
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 3: I feel that way about, but she's one of them.

804
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 2: Absolutely. I also feel like there's just no bad seat

805
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: in the house. Like we we were joking like we're

806
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 2: in the nose Bleeds, were in the fives.

807
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 3: We weren't. We weren't in the fives. We were in

808
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 3: the threes.

809
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: And it was great, and it was great and it

810
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:05,720
Speaker 2: was great. It was perfect.

811
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't floor. We're not at Flora level yet,

812
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 3: but like I thought, yeah, it's like to me, it

813
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,760
Speaker 3: didn't matter. I was like, even if we get fives,

814
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 3: I just want to be there.

815
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 2: We could see Yeah, we could see everything. Yea. And

816
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,720
Speaker 2: I think she's very intentional in her how she sets

817
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 2: up her stage and her visuals and all that good stuff.

818
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 2: For that reason. Favorite album, Oh my god, I love

819
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 2: bea Day so much because I feel like that's really

820
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 2: one of her that's a really good dance album. It

821
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,839
Speaker 2: is like I remember parties growing up formative years and

822
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 2: the music off of bea Day was playing everywhere and

823
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 2: we were dancing to it for a long time. Uh.

824
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 2: I also love four four It's amazing. I mean I

825
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 2: also love self Titled. I mean, I mean I also

826
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 2: love Elevany. Like it's so it's so hard because they're

827
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:58,280
Speaker 2: also so different.

828
00:43:58,400 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 1: They're so different.

829
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 3: And I think also because we've grown up with her,

830
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,399
Speaker 3: it's like you said, she's always been around. But it's

831
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 3: also like you can remember what was happening in your

832
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 3: life around the time of the Beyonce album, Like self titled?

833
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 3: Were my college days?

834
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: You know, b day?

835
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 3: I think I was maybe in high school. You know

836
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 3: Sasha Fears, I was definitely high school because I saw

837
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 3: her in high school. But yeah, it's like you can

838
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 3: also associate these albums with something that was happening in

839
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 3: your life.

840
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely. And then I mean, you know the Surprise album,

841
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 2: which was what self titled, I.

842
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:32,280
Speaker 1: Was self titled?

843
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 2: That was in college. Yeah, and I remember being at

844
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 2: the Latino Center.

845
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 3: Wait, hold on, what where were you when the digital popped?

846
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 3: That's my next question.

847
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 2: Yes, I was in college at the Latino Center. It

848
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: was the middle of the night because she released it

849
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 2: in the middle of the night, and it was like,

850
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 2: I think Andrew nunia shout out Andrew Nuniez. We're all

00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 3: my gosh, she dropped an album. So same, I stopped

868
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,720
Speaker 3: doing anything. It's like you wake up right away. Finals

869
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 3: don't exist anymore. Let's put the album on the TV

870
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 3: and like we played it all night and then the

871
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 3: rest of the week and the rest of the year.

872
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:00,879
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I remember seeing the Grown Woman video and

873
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: being like, oh my god, she fucking snapped, she went off.

874
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 2: What is she doing to us?

875
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 3: So good? Yes, so good? The greatest performer of our lifetime, honestly,

876
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:11,399
Speaker 3: of all.

877
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 2: I mean, of all time. Nobody holds a candle, nobody

878
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 2: comes close. I don't want to hear I. I can't

879
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 2: stand the Taylor Swift comparisons. No, it irks me to

880
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 2: my core.

881
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 3: It's like, yes, Taylor Swift is obviously talented, she's a songwriter,

882
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 3: she performs, but they're not in They're not in the

883
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 3: same caliber because her debt, her perform her career is

884
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 3: twenty six years long. Like, you can't put them in

885
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,240
Speaker 3: the same track. It's not to deny anyone else's talent,

886
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 3: but they're not in the same lane.

887
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 2: The comparisons are honestly unfair to Taylor Swift.

888
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 3: They are. Yeah, and taylor'swif is super talented, you know,

889
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 3: I know she has a really intense fandom. Also, I

890
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,480
Speaker 3: forget what they're called swifty here we go, but no,

891
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 3: it's not you can't.

892
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 2: You literally shouldn't, Like if you care about Taylor Swift

893
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:01,320
Speaker 2: at all. Don't compare her to Beyonce. You cannot compete

894
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 2: where you don't compare, like you're setting Taylor up to

895
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 2: be dragged. Yeah, it's not nice. Don't do that.

896
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 3: And someone made I mean not to dive, not to

897
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 3: get two into this, but I sent this TikTok video

898
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 3: to Mala where someone said, you know, we've all grown

899
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 3: alongside Beyonce. We've seen her albums evolve, We've seen her

900
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 3: evolve and change as an artist, whereas Taylor's albums and

901
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 3: some vain have stayed very un brand and similar. You know,

902
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 3: there hasn't been that much of a obvious evolution compared

903
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,320
Speaker 3: to Beyonce. Right, and again, like they're just the career

904
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 3: length is not the same, so we can't really judge

905
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:41,319
Speaker 3: in the same way.

906
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, I used to love Taylor Swift

907
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,760
Speaker 2: when I was in high school. I really liked Taylor Swift.

908
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 2: But I missed when she was doing country music, Like

909
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 2: I missed when she was when she was like more

910
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 2: of a hicic you know, like that was like my

911
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 2: favorite Taylor. Like pop star Taylor is not my favorite.

912
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 2: You know, I just don't think it translates for me,

913
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 2: and like we said, like she the girl doesn't dance

914
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 2: like she doesn't and Beyonce does. And for me, it's

915
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,280
Speaker 2: like that's one of those things that pop star status

916
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:10,240
Speaker 2: like come.

917
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:14,479
Speaker 3: On, yeah, it's like and I don't these people you can't.

918
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,760
Speaker 3: Again it's Beyonce, right, but it's like Britney Spears pop

919
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 3: star that's saying.

920
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 2: And dance, and she danced her ass off.

921
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,439
Speaker 3: Yes, she performed, yes, you know. And I think that

922
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 3: there's just there's far and few of the artists that

923
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 3: do that can do both.

924
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Beyonce has done a lot of different

925
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 2: types of movies. I mean, I think one of the

926
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,800
Speaker 2: only other pop star who has done as many movies

927
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 2: is Beyonce. I don't have numbers in front of me,

928
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 2: but just like I feel like Jaylo has done a

929
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 2: lot of movies. We're not going to do Jaylo Beyonce commaritis.

930
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 2: You can't because you can't. I would not do that

931
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 2: to jay Lo. No, I just wouldn't do that to her.

932
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,800
Speaker 2: That's unfair. But Jaylo's done a lot of movies. Beyonce

933
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 2: has done a lot of movies, from Obsessed, dream Girls,

934
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 2: Cadillac Records, where she portrayed Earth the Kit, I mean Beyonce.

935
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:01,880
Speaker 2: She was in Austin Powers.

936
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 3: No, she portrayed at James.

937
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 2: I'll do that again. Yeah, Beyonce's been in everything from

938
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 2: Obsessed to Cadillac Records, where she portrayed at A James.

939
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,719
Speaker 2: She was in dream Girls. I mean dream Girls. I mean,

940
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 2: come on, come on, she killed it.

941
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 3: The first Beyonce movie that I actually saw, Throwback. You're

942
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 3: like in the hive if you know this film. It's

943
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 3: Karmen and she starred opposite Makai Pfeiffer. Throwback. She was

944
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 3: like the guy in the early two thousands, right, And

945
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:40,240
Speaker 3: that movie, like I think didn't know it's like would

946
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,839
Speaker 3: be considered a cult classic, right. I don't think it

947
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 3: was as big as obviously Dreamgirls. But to me, like

948
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 3: I loved that movie so much as a kid. It

949
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 3: just did everything for me because she was singing in it.

950
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 3: It had drama, it was like kind of blueha type things.

951
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, very good. She's acting. She's rapping once again. And yeah,

952
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 2: Beyonce is an actor, and like, I don't think people

953
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 2: give her enough flowers for her film career. Yeah, you know,

954
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 2: so just again all that to say, unmatched, untouched, the incomparable.

955
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 2: She's one of one, she's the only one, she is

956
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,800
Speaker 2: number one, she is unique, and she is Beyonce.
