city council rejects pride flag ban also engaged florida's ban on drag shows just got squashed after hamburger mary's wins in court. Today in homophobia, a P-Town bar raided during queer event featuring Amanda Lepore. Also in homophobia, Trump's proposed budget cuts $2.67 billion in funding from LGBTQ plus free. Today in transphobia, the Pentagon will come through medical records and find and eject trans troops.

Today in what the fuck, GOP senator introduced his bill to make all porn a federal crime following the Project 2025 playbook. Today in YAS, more than 100 members of Congress urge RFK Jr. Not to close LGBTQ plus suicide. Help line. Do any of you queens know about any of these things? It's been a long America. It's been a long 2025. But I did see that the Florida's ban on drag shows just got squashed after Hamburger Mary's win in court.

So that's good. So according to Queerty, an appellate court has halted a Florida law designated. Designed to stop kids from seeing drag queens, the legislation was challenged by a local branch of Hamburger Mary's. Its host family-friendly drag brunches and said that laws was harming its businesses. Judge at the U.S. Court Appeals of the 11th Circuit voted two to one on Tuesday in favor of the burger chain. The court agreed that the legislation violated the First Amendment.

The law in question is SB 1438, passed by the Florida Senate in 2023 and makes it a misdemeanor to allow children to see potentially obscene adult life performances. SB 1438 does not mention drag specifically. However, it referenced lewd exposure of prosthetic or imitation genitals or breasts when it's predominantly appeals to a prudent, shameful, or morbid interest.

Many have interpreted this as a meaning drag queens, especially after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis when signing the act of the law said it was about adult performances like these drag shows. Hamburger Mary eventually shuttered its Orlando branch. It announced plans to relocate to nearby Kissimmee because of the drop and footfall in Orlando. In her ruling, Judge Robin Rosenbaum criticized SB 1438 for adding little to already existing laws protecting kids from genuine obscenity.

She said the legislation also failed to distinguish how lewd or sexual content could be differentiated. So that's kind of good, but the 11th Circle Appeals Court affirms Florida's anti-drag law is likely unconstitutional. Censorship of free speech and blocks its enforcement statewide as trials continue. This is another win for the First Amendment and for real freedom, said Smith. So that's a good win for Hamburger Mary's. So Hamburger Mary's, look, now, granted, not the fan of his Mary's.

But at least they put their foot down in Florida and was able to tackle that. Get it, Hamburger Mary's. I love that. Might have to go and support the local Hamburger Mary. Right. Just for that. Do it. A couple more dollars. Maybe a happy hour, not a brunch.

Oh, yeah. Too bad. it's too much it's too much but i love this i think it's a great win and i think you know but i think the hard part is like is the judge part right because right even though there's separation of like three branches i think people are still very influenced by their own beliefs and and things so like we got lucky with this with this judge being interpreting the law correctly you know but I think it's so easy for other judges to maybe, be influenced by their own,

upbringing and beliefs and rule against something like this right because it's almost like if you saying that so you telling me that you're not going to allow children in Florida to go see Big Mama's House or in theater like you know what I'm saying like because that's the yeah. The route you're going right it's just like but yeah but yeah but hopefully more things like this happen, then just your system saves them.

Well, it's Florida also, so we'll see how long it lasts before, you know, we'll be back in a couple of weeks talking about, well, unfortunately.

Let's see. How Trump's proposed budget cuts $2.67 billion in funding from LGBTQ plus programs by Samantha the right now. The Trump administration's proposed budget for 2026 slashes $2.67 billion in funding to programs that support LGBTQ plus communities according to the analysis of the proposal by the Human Rights Campaign, HRC, this week.

Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought in Architecture of the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 plan for Trump's second term sent the administration's 2026 budget request to the Senate on May 2nd. The budget proposal would increase military spending to $1 trillion while cutting non-defense spending by about $1.

$163 billion, as CNN reported. Amidst those cuts, programs that provide various forms of support for LGBTQ plus people would face $2.67 billion in total loss funding, according to an HRC analysis published Monday. That number is in addition to $800 million in withdraw and research grants for LGBTQ plus health this year, per the New York Times.

The administration is seeking to cut funding for a board swath of LGBTQ plus programs and initiatives, especially those that vote accused of promoting radical gender ideology and divisive radicalism. I can't speak. The budget is more than cuts on a page. It's a direct tech on LGBTQ plus lives, wrote HRC senior public policy advocate Matthew Rose in a statement accompanying the analysis Monday. Trump is taking away life-saving health care, support for LGBTQ businesses.

Protections against hate crimes, and even housing for people living with HIV. The largest single cut noted in Vox's skinny budget proposal was $534 million to the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities, which funds research to reduce health disparities in marginalized communities.

For example, among LGBTQ plus people and Native Americans, Vaught accused the Institute of being replete with DEI expenditures, continuing the administration's attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion. As Rose wrote, the proposal would also make far-ranging cuts to HIV AIDS research and community health programs, which the administration already targeted in early cuts to aid programs like PEPFAR.

Trump's 2026 budget would cut tens of millions more, including slashing $74 million from the Ryan White HIV-AIDS program because, as Vought claimed, the program's educational and training components did not focus on core health care and support services. The plan would also consolidate a number of targeted grant programs, effectively eliminating HIV-AIDS specific funding at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC, and Department of Housing and Urban Development.

A lot of other cuts blah blah blah blah blah yeah. In contrast the budget proposes $500 million in funding for the Make America Healthy Again initiative which Vought claimed would allow Kennedy to tackle nutrition physical activity, healthy lifestyles, overly reliance on medication and treatments, the effects of new technological habits, environmental impacts, and food and drug quality and safety at HHS.

Kennedy is a long-established public health conspiracy theorist who embraced the debunked claim that poppers cause HIV-AIDS and has proclaimed that he will find a cause of autism by this September. Last week, HHS released a report about gender-affirming medical care that advocated for trans youth to receive gender exploratory therapy, which experts say is a rebranding of anti-LGBTQ conversion therapy targeted trans people.

Democrats have largely focused on Trump's budget effects and the economy of Medicaid to report from Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday that determined Trump's plan to reduce or eliminate Medicaid coverage for 86, 8.6 million people by 2034. The only thing I can think about with Vought is that like, it's just every time I hear his name, it's just like, gives me like, one, the ick, of course. But secondly, do y'all ever, did you ever watch that show on Prime called,

uh, Bad, what is that? It was the superhero boys. Yeah, the boys. Because all I could think about is vibe. Yeah. Like, I'm like, this, this look like it's getting too close to, some fascism. Exactly. Like, what the fuck, yo? Ugh. But these cuts, even with those cuts, this whole freaking, even though it's about to be off subject, but on subject, whoever the one guy was who was doing the budget for Congress that was supposed to submit it,

it wasn't Vought, but it was the other guy. He just got replaced. And I'm like, this is the, what, the second quarter in the fucking year? You're re-quitting? He got replaced well it was all a set up any damn way if you think about it, Yeah, them cuts is coming, but... Yeah, it's just interesting, like, what do you think's gonna happen?

You think, like, yes, you save money in the front, but then if people are not getting their medical care, then you're just setting them up for worse health down the line. Right, and then when that happens, it's gonna be more crime. Like, it seemed like, I don't know the mindset of what's going on, but we can tell it's the blind leading the blind up there. They want more dead gay people and more people in jail and their private prisons.

You know, that is true because Newsom just sent directives to people to make on how camping outside illegal. Right. He's getting like Daddy Newsom is becoming Pawpaw Newsom. Right. I don't know how he's trying to spin it and pretend like he's doing a good thing. He keeps like acting like he's doing like he found the solution. Yeah, I'm like, what the fuck? It's all a mess. Yeah. What you know about that homeless? America has a problem.

Like, what the fuck, fascist Newsom? Like, I am like the fascist Democrat in office? Oh, crazy. I mean, I think it really highlights, you know, the system does not take care of the most vulnerable of our population, you know? Of course. I mean, they act like they have a place to go. Where are they supposed to go? Yeah. Camp. Go camping. Yeah. I mean, that's probably why they got rid of the national parks. Was it going to ship everybody to all the national parks that you close now?

No, they put them in prison. They don't criminalize it. I mean. They need more slaves. Countries in shambles is the cheapest way. Slave labor. How are you guys in this downfall? How's your morale? I just want to get on the spaceship. Go back in the sea somewhere. Go back into the sea. I don't like it. This is ridiculous. It's getting weird. Getting? It's been weird. It's weird. And I saw something where Trump is designing merch for 2028. What? Yeah. He's going to try to get a third term.

In Obama's name, I pray, just get your ass back and beat him in 20-whatever. Jesus grabbed a wheel. How about that? I can't even imagine. Imagine Obama versus Trump. That is shit. What else we got? Did y'all hear about P-Town Bar that got raided? And Amanda Lepore was there and they fucking asked for a fucking photograph? She was there or she was there performing? Oh. The police came in in the middle of a drag performance, but not her performance.

Oh. So she was there and there's other queens there. So on May 2nd, the members of Pittsburgh Nuisance Bar Task Force conducted an unannounced compliance check at P-Town, a popular gay bar in Bloomfield.

So approximately 20 pennsylvania state police officers and undercover agents during a drag event hosted by local drag icon indica and featuring featuring legendary guest amanda lapore the event was hitting its peak at 11 30 p.m mid-performance drag artist blade matthews took the stage delivering a theatrical rendition of bohemian rhapsody when the police walked in, The police waited for the drag performance to be over before asking the customers

and staff to step out so they can conduct a compliance check. Guests said they waited 30 minutes outside for them to inspect every crevice. While people were waiting, local drag artist Indica did an acapella version of Pink Pony Club and everyone was out there singing Pink Pony Club with the queen.

According to the compliance check the p-town the bar said that the inspection brought to light a. And so they're going to do that. What improvement? But while, so I'm confused because usually mostly when a check like that happens, I don't think it usually involves officers. Don't it usually go through like code enforcement or like somebody like within, right? I don't know why officers are doing. Why they have to be there? A compliance check.

And you're rolling how many officers deep? Yeah. Like, I don't understand why officers are doing compliance checks when you're supposed to be protected and serving. Yeah. Who are you going to arrest? So it was the police bureau, the fire bureau, Department of Permits, license and inspections, someone from the health department and the county district's attorney and the Liquor Control Enforcement Division. Okay, so they must have been getting a lot of complaints.

Maybe. Yeah, so let's see. So they were asked specifically to check on overcrowding. Inspectors found that at the bar, with an occupancy permit of 70, they had 133 people inside. If you're actually fucking breaking the law that's one thing can't report it as if it's a hate crime yeah yeah yeah, Yeah, so that were some things that were happening. Okay, well, I mean, they're right. And P-Town did say that, you know what? You got us. You're right.

It's some shit that we do need to work on. We do need to tell motherfuckers the bouncer to quit letting motherfuckers in when we at capacity. It's our bad. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? But when I first heard about the article itself, I was like, oh, shit, this seems like some bullshit.

Yeah, that's why the rated was quote to the article. okay but i i still think there's some like validity to what you said like the how they showed up and showed out to inspect this bar that is at capacity 70 people how big is this this this bar right do you need 20 people you know and i think on top of it it's like y'all like the police when they released their statement about it because p-town was like y'all being homophobic or people are like saying you're being

homophobic yeah police released it and they're like we understand the history between police and the lgbtqia community but it's like well if you knew then you shouldn't have done that right you should have waited like well i guess you can't really go and do a compliance check when nobody's at the fucking bar yeah you know what i'm saying so i can understand that but like you don't need to bring police to you don't need to right you don't need to all you have to do is like okay go and

count yeah we're in here the fire department does that all the time without police so it was like you didn't really need to involve the police, every branch of fucking of the county. Like, you didn't really need all that. We got the mayor here. Right. I was like, do y'all already know they probably had that big Amanda there, so it was a big name pool for people to come out anyway.

So you already knew, like, it was gonna technically... I mean, maybe they all got, maybe all of these departments all got, like, a demand hire call from some other place. Some other nefarious one entity. I said, go write it all together. Yeah. I mean, you could be right, but she it. And then the police on top of that asked Amanda Lepore for pictures because they knew who she was.

That's why I'm saying maybe that's why that is. Because if they're already like knowing, if they're already like friendly and know who Amanda Lepore is, that's not sounding like that person is homophobic, right? Right. Why are they with homophobic intentions? Maybe not. So maybe their command is from somewhere else. So who's commanding all these people to go there? Because it's like, what are you going to do? You'd like go there and you're expecting gay people to be what?

Drunk and rowdy like straight people? And what? We're going to what? Pick fights with cops? No. Exactly. So you can't just go out and bash us. That's what you're expecting is go bash the fuck out of a bunch of rowdy gay people or what? No. Yeah. They're probably waiting for like someone. Someone's right. Yeah. Because I'm quite sure they could have went to another dive bar around the corner and found that them motherfuckers was over capacity too. Yeah.

Right? You know what I'm saying? yeah but it's also like why do you have to go to that like you they said everybody had undercover cops right if you if they took a count and they're like oh there's 130 people here at 70 capacity then write a fine and then like have right and exit the people yeah and exit the people yeah close the bar i guess yeah mm-hmm sounds all suspicious and weak yeah i think the hard part is not the hard part but the thing is is is it go back it

goes back to like fear tactics yeah because what's going to happen? People are not going to feel safe going to bars, right? Like, I understand that it was overcapacity. Yeah, I get that, you know? But then the issue is the intensity in which you showed up to enforce these laws. So people ain't going to be like, you know what? I would just rather stay at home. Exactly. And then not be with community and just be like, now depression hits.

So they're like, you know what I'm saying? Like, yeah. So I totally see that. Excuse me. So bars stay in capacity, but... Please back off. Obviously, if you're gay people, just mind your P's and Q's because they're going to bust your ass.

That's also true. And speaking of being on your P's and Q's, fuck this P. The Pentagon will comb through medical records to find and eject trans troops. So according to Vim News, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hexeth has instructed the Pentagon to kick out all trans service members by June 6th following the Supreme Court. May 6th order to allow Donald Trump's trans troop ban to go into effect while litigation continues to play out.

According to a directive issued by HECS, excuse me, on May 8th, active duty trans service members who have been diagnosed or exhibit symptoms consistent with gender dysphoria must identify themselves for voluntary separations from the U.S. Armed forces by June 6th, while members in the reserve forces have until July 7th to do so. After the deadline passes, Hex Health Memo states that the military will initiate involuntary separation process.

According to NBC News, the Defense Department will then begin going through troops medical records to identify trans service members who haven't identified themselves. Meanwhile, anyone who has been diagnosed with a gender dysphoria will no longer be allowed to enlist in the military. As them previously reported, because the ban is worded to exclude anyone who exhibits symptoms consistent with gender dysphoria.

Trump's trans troop ban could affect trans people who have never medically or socially transitioned and even people who are simply believed to be trans. In December of 2024, before the Defense Department said that there were 4,240 trans troops diagnosed with gender. I don't like using those... Diagnosed with gender dysphoria on active duty out of 2 million active duty National Guard and Reserve service members, per The Guardian.

However, the department acknowledged at that time that the number might be higher. Roughly 1,000 troops have already self-identified as trans.

I'm gonna finish this, but I'm gonna make a quick point. So if everybody in the Reserve could say and be, if they are family like they claim to be in regards of being like a senfi or military navy then everybody can say that i identify as trans and then who the fuck gonna be fighting for the country but i feel like does it's only saying if you have gender dysphoria no they're saying And that's if you're exhibiting or identify as trans.

And part of the diagnosis of gender dysphoria includes wanting to be treated as the other gender that you are or changing your clothes and attire to match the gender that you are. So what stands out to me is this also targets Bush lesbians, right? Right. Because how are people going to determine if you're trans or say you're trans? They're going to look at your gender appearance.

And so if you're not aligned with the traditional man and woman and you're outside of that, then you're going to get flagged for this. And this is not just targeting trans people, it's targeting cis people whose gender appearance falls outside of it. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's already affecting trans women. They're already fucking attacking them in the bathrooms. Yeah. So the speaker was lesbian. Oh, oh, yeah.

So Ray Timberlake, a trans service member who has been in the Navy for 17 years, pointed out to the Guardian that if trans troops don't begin the military voluntary separation process, they have no guarantee to access your pension, your severance or your honorable discharge. charge. This is not voluntary, Timberlake continued. This is a decision that folks are coming to under duress.

These are a thousand transgender troops that would be serving if the conditions were not created to force them into making a decision for their own well-being or the well-being of their family long term. Although the Supreme Court ordered has allowed Trump trans-military ban to go into effect, three legal cases against the ban remain ongoing. A Washington State District Court and Washington, D.C.

District Judge both issued previous injunctions against the ban, although those rulings have both been both been stayed. In a joint statement released on Tuesday, May 6. Lombardo Legal and Human Rights Campaign Foundation, two of the groups representing plaintiffs challenging the ban, called the Supreme Court's order a devastating blow.

By allowing this discrimination ban to take effect while our challenges continue, the court has temporarily sanctioned a policy that has nothing to do with the military readiness and everything to do with prejudice. The organization wrote, we remain steadfast in our belief that this ban violates constitutional guarantees of equal protection and will ultimately be struck down. I hope it is because that's completely like...

If I put my life on the line for fucking years and now all of a sudden I mean nothing to you. Yeah. So like that, that's a, that is a blow to your like dedication to America.

You know what I'm saying? Like you're, you're literally putting these people against their oath to like fight and protect this country because now this country is not protecting them. Yeah. Yeah. But to be honest, I feel like it's on brand with America because the reality is, is, is I think we're fed this idea of like, yeah, go, go defend this country. We believe in our troops and we only believe them with our words, but not with our actions because the VA system is a mess.

Veterans are on house. Veterans are not getting their benefits or not being treated as someone who has given their life, you know, put their life on the line, you know. So, like, this feels very on brand for America, unfortunately. You're right about that. But this idea of, like, separate—so they find out who's trans and what they're doing, kicking them out of the military? Right. What are they doing with all this information? And isn't this a HIPAA violation?

You—right, exactly. But since it's the government, since it's the motherfucking—the Pentagon, I guess the Pentagon can do whatever the fuck they want. So they're going through medical records then to— that sounds like some HIPAA violation bullshit. But who they gonna go against? That is true. You know what I'm saying? Shit. It's just like, what the fuck? Sue the government. But it's like, what, you get a tip? This person's trans. Look for them? Like, what the fuck?

No shit, they just gonna go to the motherfucking, the director of that branch and be like, all right, here's three, here's your list, here's your list, they gotta be going. And it's just like, and, but I see what that veteran that was saying that served for 17 years, Like, even though you may not want to, but, like, it's best to do it so that you can get your pension and continue to do that. But, like, you're forcing people into this.

You're forcing people, like, who served this fucking country for years. Yeah. I don't know. I struggle with the idea of if you do this volunteer, we're going to help you at the end. Which we know that's going to be a lie because they tried that shit when they were trying to do the cuts at Congress. Oh, yeah. When they was like, oh, yeah, like, if you go ahead and quit now, and we'll go ahead and send you, we'll pay you for the rest of the year. That motherfucker's like, oh, too bad. See? Yeah.

So they can't even trust you on that shit. What a mess. America. America. America has a problem. America is the problem. Because did y'all hear about like how Bad Bunny going on world tour is not fucking touching? Yes, that's a bad ad. It is. You know what? So Bad Bunny is doing a world tour and he's not doing anything in America.

And the closest place he is touring is in Puerto Rico to bring people into Puerto Rico to pump money into the system exactly because since hotels travel, yeah bad money is going to fix Puerto Rico's economy exactly, because that's where a lot of people in America are going to go probably for the tour I mean I'm quite sure everybody is going to go all these other places yeah, but yeah I was like that's badass.

Alright what else did we have Aliso Viejo City Council rejects Pride flag ban. The Pride flag was flown in Aliso Viejo every June for Pride since it was approved in May 2021. Council Member Mike Munzing, one of two officials who voted against the idea four years ago, introduced a resolution in April to ban all flags except federal, state, and local flags from city property.

Although the proposed policy didn't mention the pride flag, council members acknowledged that it's the only non-government flag that has ever flown into City Hall's flagpole. Munzig brought the item forward because the city made the wrong move in 2021, he said. We should not be flying divisive or political flags in our city, he said at the meeting. It's better not to have any. No examples were presented that indicated the pride flag was divisive.

During public comment in April's 2nd council meeting, San Clemente Mayor Steve Knobloch urged the council to ban pride flag, saying it sends the wrong message. If we're going to promote conduct, why wouldn't we rather fly flags for first responders, veterans, service clubs, or any other group that actually does something beneficial for the city, Knobloch said?

Please do not promote the profane by sending a message to our children that the full force and gravitas of our community advocates for the sexual preferences of a few. Girl, well, you do. But overall, Munzing encountered fierce resistance to his proposal. Public debate lasted approximately five hours, including dozens of speakers who were allotted three minutes each. The majority of public comment was against the proposed flag ban.

Also, the city received 164 emailed comments, with 13 expressing support for the proposed ban. Mayor Tiffany Ackley read all the comments into public record. Ackley also spent a significant amount of time criticizing the proposal, addressing potential legal flaws that could open the city to lawsuits that would waste taxpayer dollars. Then, at approximately 12.30am, Munzing mentioned to withdraw his proposal and ripped it up. Literally.

The crowd erupted in cheers and applause. I would like to thank Councilmember Munzing, Ackley said. While he put us in this position, it is very Herculanean of him to withdraw it. And I don't think that was easy for him to do. Well, well, well. We win another day. So I'm trying to figure out. So wait, what was that last part? So it got denied? He pulled the bill? He pulled it. I guess after hearing maybe all of these comments.

He didn't want the smoke? And they're calling him Herculean for doing that, for not being a homophobe. Yeah. Nah, girl, you're not a hero. But you should've seen his photo. He'd look like a queen. So get the fuck up outta here. So yeah, defeated the bully with our comments. I love it. So get in the comments, girl. The taste of your own medicine. Exactly. The power of the comment section. It's a beast. It's a beast. That's good. But what's divisive about the pride flag? You mean you have,

you have feelings about the pride flag? Basically. That doesn't make it divisive. When you see it and you think, fuck those fucking motherfuckers, that's you being divisive against them. Right, it's like the flag itself has, is not the sign. Right, like. Yeah. Like, if you're thinking that other people are also having similar thoughts, and now you're advocating for that, like, think about why are you doing that? Mm-hmm. Is it because you just believe in other people's thoughts?

Like, what? It's not your personal thought? You're just advocating for others? Other homophobes? Pathetic. Damn. Shave people need to reflect. They need to take their ayahuasca or whatever it is. What is it? Where is it when you go somewhere? Yeah, your ayahuasca. Okay. You go to the Amazon and take your ayahuasca medicine. Go have a journey. Not a journey. Any other gay news? Any other homophobic news? Anything good gay happen? No.

I've been so disconnected from the news recently. Me too. I've only been. So I'm... That's definitely, I don't know. I don't know any good news. Because I sure enough trying to say where from this bad news. And definitely, I actually subscribe to like things on YouTube that are like, this is the good news channel. And we only tell you things that are like nice. They're like, this happened. This artificial heart was made. This city cleaned up their town, etc. Things of that nature.

I'm like, oh, maybe it can get better in another country that I have to flee to. Eventually. Wow. Aren't we just rainbow and sunshines today? Right. I mean, I guess the only good news that I know of is that it's about to be Long Beach Pride. So that's the only good news I have. Yeah. So... And the streets are about to get packed. Yeah, the streets are sculling.

Pride season is among us. are you doing anything for pride planned I mean I don't have anything planned but being in the streets being with community loving and living life and drinking you? Same yeah I wouldn't do that what about you?

Hiding away from all the homophobes you can't hide away from them you gotta be in they face yeah don't let them dim your rainbow exactly, I ain't trying to get bombed at the Lady Gaga concert someone got bombed at the Lady Gaga concert No, they said they thwarted some homophobic, allegedly, homophobic attack that was supposed to happen at the Lady Gaga concert.

Oh, the one that was like two million people or something? I guess so. She was like... She was like, I didn't know anything about it, but the Monsters is out, so... Did they all pay for a ticket? Shit, if you even had like one dollar a ticket. Yeah. Make some bank, girl. It's ridiculous. Imagine. We did a voguing class the other day. Oh my God.

We did the elbow hand thing. We did the catwalk. We did the sideways catwalk, which I cannot recreate.

We did a bunch of spins on the floor. I stood up. It was intense. I was sweating my ass off. Yeah, and I was sore after, too. I was pretty sore. Good workout. But it was a good workout. It was fun.

i'm definitely not Because there's people there who are really, really good. Because it's a mixed kind of class. So you have beginners, like me and Nino. And then you have these voguers who are fucking really great. Yeah. They had really good... There were a lot of guys that were there. I was like, dang, how long have you been doing this? Yeah. I'm just like, I feel so inadequate with my stick robot arms. Everybody's so fluid. I know. I just feel like a Lego man. Just like, wah, wah, wah. Mm-mm.

But yeah, it was fucking dope. I definitely want to do another one. I felt like I was having a gay cultural moment. I'm like, I'm learning my people's native dance. Right, right, right, right. Like I feel the one with my land. Because yeah, not until you do those movements, like you were saying, I didn't realize how extra gay you have to move to do these poses. And it's just like, you feel a little bit funny. Because it's actually super awkward.

Yeah. Trying to like get all the moves down all at the same time. And then like look fierce doing it. Yeah. A lot of work. Also it's like a lot of work. Coordination. Yeah. Coordination. Definitely. Because you're like trying to move your hips and then you're moving your hands and they're going opposite directions. For me, they just get tangled up. Right. Hit yourself a few times. Like if you can't pat your head and rub your tummy at the same time,

I don't know if you can do this. I think that just dance in general too. But it was a lot of fucking fun i suggest everybody go to it what is it again the house of long beach house of long beach house of long beach shout out check out straight class but yeah i was definitely sweating my ass off which i never like whenever i'm at a whenever i work out i never sweat because i guess i'm not going that hard but definitely got me going i'm about to give it a try one day. Anything else, y'all?

I don't know. Is that it for these quick teas? Y'all still thirsty? No, I'm not thirsty, actually. I'm very quenched. I'm quenched.

Alright, I think these queens deserved a break. Break time. Let's take a break. Music.

Hey y'all christoph here and we just wanted to say thank you for all the love and support but don't forget to go ahead and give us a five-star review a like a heart a comment you know they all help the podcast a lot from all of us here at the queer lbc we greatly appreciate you now back to the show and we're back so today i wanted to talk about the beyonce cowboy carter tour and with us to talk about the cowboy carter we have a

local beyonce stan and former host guy with us here today how are you girl how's every little thing how are you hello long beach i'm back bitch how's your beyonce withdrawals welcome back thank you for having me today welcome back i am sad.

I saw something on the internet that says like when beyonce is like done with her shit and then you like go into like what do you do next that's what i'm that's where i'm at now you have to wait for more music from beyonce i know like i feel like i've had a point in life where i'm just like what is she gonna post on the internet what's what what's she gonna release like i'm not i'm always excited when she like posts on instagram even if

it's just a fucking photo of her and her clothes like oh okay that's cute bitch just to get a little high beyonce high yeah i definitely feel the same we saw i saw some meme that was like oh once you go to beyonce and then you try to recreate it by going a second night but it's not as good as the first night and then you're just having these withdrawals and you don't know what to do i'm like that's definitely my experience,

because i went two nights i went four y'all you were all four there was five oh okay i got invited to the second one I did not go. Oh okay why did you not I don't know should have been a five for five I know I kind of regret it now how would you rank it I think the last show okay so first show I was in section 231 which is like, looking directly at the stage in the center a third show I was in 331 one level up same view, fourth show who the fuck did I go with Okay.

I'm like, who was I with? I also love how you remember your seat. I think that was with us, right? You went with, and our one friend. Oh. It was all of us that night, right? That was the fourth? I think I was back in section 231. Yeah. And then the last night, I was in the floor seat. What? Two rows behind the queen. Well, in front of her. Gasp. How was that? I think that was my favorite show, like, to experience a concert. Yeah.

Was it standing only or something? No, they had chairs, but I was standing only. Oh. And it's like, she was like right there. Did she look at you in the eyes? I stood up in my chair and like when she walked by and I was like screaming her fucking name like crazy. And security was like, get out the chair. And I was like, fuck you, bitch. She gonna see me. I was like waving my hands like, girl, look over here. I want her to point at me and say I wasn't a diva because I was gonna be so excited.

I was just waiting for that. I was like, soon as she walked, I'm about to jump up in this fucking chair. And I want her to be like, you ain't no diva and ain't. Perfect. And she pointed, like, right to the right of me. And I was like, you fucking scallywag. Scallywag. But I still love you, queen. And she's so small. Is she? You know what? I was just saying that. She's like 5'6"? 5'6 or something. Yeah, she's short. I didn't realize that until I just looked it up the other day.

I was like, how tall is Beyonce? She looks tall as fuck. I thought she was. She only, like, 5'6". So she was lining up something when she said, I'm 5'9", thick and fine. What a tragedy. She's 5'6". 5'9 with heels. I think that's Tyrant. She says she's 5'9". She's little. Yeah. And then being close to the stage, I'm like, oh, this bitch is really small. This bitch is really small. She just looks so tall and... I know. Maybe it's because the way they angle her.

Yeah, it's probably all... The way they film her, shoot her, she just looks tall. But yeah, she's a little tiny. Wow, that's good propaganda. Interesting. Which, what's his name? The guy that does the voice of the, this is what I want to see. Yeah. He was like, oh, when I met her, she's like so fucking tiny. I guess it's true. She is so tiny. I forgot his name. What is that man's name? I forgot it too. Mm-hmm.

Anyways, what was your favorite part of the show? I like the little movie vignette where she, like, in the interlude. I'm not talking about it right now. Not the music part, right? Where she, like. Punches that girl. Is that what she does? Oh, yeah. When she hit her in the back of the hair with the bottle. There she goes. I like that little movie bit. It was, like, giving Kill Bill vibes. And then what else did I like? I liked, obviously, the Yaya part was, like, lit.

Oh, yeah. That's my favorite song. that's a great song it is a great song, I'm trying to remember what was that part in the concert, she was like cause she goes to the piano guy and she's sitting next to him and she's like and the piano's on fire oh yeah yeah yeah that's the ya ya part oh okay okay but she mixes it with why don't you love me oh okay yeah pisses me off cause I'm like girl stick to one song right now, cause I don't know the words to why don't you love me oh really see I like how

she did that I like how she. Infused her songs into Cowboy Carter with different varieties of different songs of her past albums. Okay, that's fine with me. I just wish she didn't fucking infuse Renaissance with it. Why not? Like, I feel like she has so many songs. Like, why didn't you just... You're like already paper. Oh, yeah. Like how Renaissance was like Renaissance and all the rest of her category. It should have been like Cowboy Carter and more of her category.

I don't want to hear Cowboy Carter and Renaissance. I could see that. I could see that, but I also felt like that was probably because how they were supposed to all merge together. Yeah. So I think the third concert is going to be like all the concerts in one. In one, yeah. Yeah. That would be cool. And that's going to be a four-hour long. It was that long. I mean, I get you. I feel like if I go to the next one, I don't want to see Cowboy Carter again.

You don't have to see it again. Right? And I think she's going to play it in order because in theory, Cowboy Carter is supposed to go first, then it's Renaissance, and then it's the Act 3. Act 3. Do we know? I heard it was rock a long time ago. Is it still rock now? Because a lot of the visuals, she was dressed up as Tina Turner. She was given a lot of- Chuck Berry. Yeah. Oh, okay, okay. Some other people. See, you've seen it four times. I've only seen it once.

So I can't really remember what was- What show did you go to? I went to the May 1st and then the May 7th. So on the 1st, I think she changed them. I don't know if she changed it on the 2nd night.

But on the first night there's an interlude where she like does like what is it called when like in cowboy time in western time oh like a draw a duel yeah did y'all see that, I think and they shoot her up I don't remember that oh see she took that out so on the first night she did a draw a duel a drool whatever the fuck.

And some white like she like comes to town and they're like oh my god, cowboy card is here like that menace and then like this white man is like they like go back to back and then they look at each other and it's like the western music and then they walk away and then they get the gun, and then she's like where her cigarette or her cigar is smoking, and then he pulls his gun out and starts shooting her and then she just stands

there and starts laughing and then she shoots him back and then he dies. She took all that out. Why? So now only they only show where they're back to back. Yeah, because I've seen that part but like it just goes off. So it was more than that. Okay. I'm like, why you take that out, bitch? I like that. I wonder why. But people think she took it out because she added more songs which was that little medley of whatever the fuck. Oh, wait, when she did Bills, Bills, Bills? I did like that part.

No, it was when she's on top of that truck. Oh, yeah, I like that. The crazy in love shit and then Halo to the left. But, yeah, I like that little interlude. I wish she would have kept it. Yeah, that was nice. The visuals was nice as hell. Like, I like how she hit the stage this time with, like, that triangle. Yeah. Well, the actual, I think the floor was, like, a guitar. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Like, if you look it up from up above. It looked like it was some kind of, like, craziness.

And I don't know if you know the floor was, like, the floor had visuals, too.

So if you're up top she was playing like like there was like visuals on the floor that like that she's standing on oh yeah i think i saw that like if you was on two and three you could see it yeah like looking directly at the floor you can see there was like images playing on the floor, because i don't know if you noticed there an alien superstar the floor turned into a moon, yeah oh yeah i didn't i was like oh that's cool okay that's fancy what do you

think about the the visuals and the artistic... I thought it was cool. I didn't understand that it was supposed to be a guitar, like a star guitar. I was like, what is this weird, like, Illuminati triangle? But whatever. And then there's also, like, this, like, weird, like, group of, like, people in, like, red. That was also, like, giving satanic shit. Okay, I didn't get that either. What was that about? It's, like, satanic shit. Shut up. It is.

I got, what's that show, Handmaid's Tale? I was like, what is this? What is this? What is happening? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I think it, like, people are saying that it has something to do with, like, some satanic shit. Because people, like, a lot of people are doing that in their concerts. Like, I guess Lady Gaga is also doing Red... I don't think she's doing satanic shit. Doing Red... I don't think she might be. Not the queen. She probably would. But I thought it was cool.

I really liked all her, like, video things that she had. I thought her aesthetic was westernly on point. I liked all, like, the... Like, she kind of, like, went through, like, different western vibes. Like, she had the Vegas western vibe.

She kind of had like the texas western vibe oh yeah she had like the louisiana feel southern she had like all the different like vibes i was talking about the alligators were in there i think so and then yeah i thought like i was actually scared for her multiple times because i was like bitch like i get it like these robots are like slick and sick and super cool but you're gonna get your ass fucking knocked the fuck out don't say that don't manifest it's not gonna be pretty girl

like it's gonna fuck you up was it the night you went where it almost hit her where they didn't mark her stage well they said that they were saying that but i didn't notice that when it happened from the side view you can see it she jumps back a little bit but you can't tell from like looking forward yeah no because our other friend was there that night he's like he showed me the video he's like no she looked fine i said no here's a different view he's like oh because when the hand like swings

down in front of her she like steps back but i like how she was just like looking at the ground for like five minutes like where the fuck she's like fuck i mean i saw that video they even thought they talk about that kind of shit like in my work it's called like what is it called like.

Pinned and crushed or something like that it's like when machinery just smashes the fuck into you and it's like bitch oh my god you're gonna get crushed the fuck out that can happen well some engineers said those are collaborative robots so like i'm all it's still man-made it still can, yeah it can still wire yeah but he's like they're made to like not hit you so like if it, senses something it's not going to hit you it's like well what if it what if your sensor is from China or some Trump shit.

You mean from America, it'll probably hit her. You're right. Did you see the other one where the robot was pouring her a drink and it missed the cup? Oh, I saw that one. That video cracks me up because she picks up the cup and she looks like bitch, what the fuck? She got fired. Get me out of here. Unplug him. See, exactly. She dissimilaring that thing as soon as the show is over. These robots are so smart, have sensors, and can't even pour a fucking drink?

Get out of here. It poured all over the chair she was sitting in. Get the fuck out of here. How's it supposed to do anything and can't even pour a drink? Like, whose fault was that? Is that the robot's fault or, like, the person who placed it in the wrong, like, area? If I was to be honest, I'd blame both the person and the robot. Because it's supposed to show... Yeah, who knows? The robot should have, like, a camera that says, cup here, fill glass.

Shouldn't be that hard. but that night where they didn't mark her stage they didn't leave so far until friday morning 6 a.m i heard about that the queen said what so you think i was getting a whooping.

That's a long whooping like what do we do for that long the show ended at 11 and we here to 6 a.m the next day beyonce's like i don't care i'm going to sleep work it out you well you worked in like behind the scenes like what what like what like, It would be like, by the time it would be like, I don't know, probably 10 o'clock, you would be like, fuck. And then you'd be like, we're working later. We're working overtime.

Are they just like rehearsing? Or are they like... Well, for that moment where they all stayed that long, like that sounds like a fuck-up happened and that they, like a bad fuck-up happened and that they are all in trouble.

And then they all have to sit sit there and work until it's fucking done and so yeah it would be like you probably have known that the fuck up happened i don't know i'm just speculating but i would just say probably like by 10 o'clock you're like fuck you'd probably hear that we're working overtime from somebody and then by like 11 o'clock you're like oh it's locked in we're probably working overtime how long i don't know like

an hour i don't know so then it's like we running through the show again i have no idea they could be anything it could be anything like check these fucking robots everything show me the fucking, configurations you put in and why wasn't why wasn't my stage mark and every single person is gonna stay behind, with us and we're all gonna fucking see right cause we're a team we're exactly nobody leaving this motherfucker except for me Beyonce I'm going to bed she

said me and my girls is going to bed but I feel like she probably would stay.

She probably stayed she probably stayed she probably sent the family home y'all can go home but I'm about to get in the air Blue was gonna stay I feel like she would probably stay for like an hour and then whoever else is in charge is like taking over because she's like I need to go to sleep for my beauty rest goodbye fucking fix it and then it's like you all have to stay until it's fixed and it probably didn't get fixed until whatever the fuck,

time they left and they said keep doing it keep doing it keep doing it again, and again because I heard the dancers didn't get in trouble but they had to stay too for some reason, because everybody needs to fucking stay. Jesus my mom just want to go home right we got to come back tonight I'm tired you probably even like yeah the people who have nothing to do with it are all having to stay. It's like when your siblings get in trouble, y'all getting in trouble. I hated that when I was growing up.

But then it's probably like the upper white people probably get to leave a little bit earlier. Yeah. But everybody else still has to stay. But I also liked how, one, she didn't have, like, no openers. Like, she just got straight to it. She never did. Well, when she had Renaissance, she had, like, DJ, like, she had, like, it wasn't like an opener, per se, but, like. That was Jay-Z's doing.

That was for her birthday, which is why at the end of the show, she was like, whoever performed, thank you, because she didn't know who the fuck was there. Jay-Z did that. But that was, I didn't go on her birthday show. I went on, I didn't go on her birthday show. That was her birthday show. No. Yes, it was. Because her birthday show is when Diana was on there. Yeah. DJ Khaled was not that night. Are you sure? Yeah, because I didn't go on her birthday show.

No, I know you didn't go on her birthday show. Right. We went together. We went together. Right, we didn't go on her birthday. No, I know, but the day DJ Khaled came, it was on her birthday. Oh, wait, no, it was Doshi. Doshi. It was Doshi, Lil Wayne. It was like a bunch of people. Yeah, it was Doshi. But that was on her birthday. No, Doshi was the day we was there. No, she was not. No, because I was there and there was no Doji. No, yeah, you're getting confused.

No, because I was... I was there and there was no Doji. Yeah. You was there, weird. The day you went. You was with us? Bitch, you don't remember meeting me in the fucking... No, Tash, that was so long ago. Were you really that drunk? How many years was this? 2023. Two years ago. Oh, I'm talking about this week. Oh. Child.

I'm like, wait. I remember seeing you this cowboy No, for her birthday in Renaissance DJ Khaled was there With all those people performing before she came out Then the show started and then she had, What's that man's name? Kendrick Lamar. Was the only guest that she brought out. That she brought out on stage with her. Tracee Ellis Ross coordinated with her team to bring Diana Ross just to sing Happy Birthday to her. So Beyonce didn't know she was there either.

Until she went backstage and saw on the monitor, like, what the fuck is she doing here? And then she ran back out because she was supposed to go change her outfit. Right. So technically, only Kendrick Lamar was the special guest. Right. But she had people before the start of the show. Yes. That wasn't her. That was Jay-Z. Oh, okay. Because he signed to Roc Nation. So I like how this Cowboy Carter, she just got straight to it.

Like, it wasn't like... Jay-Z said, we went to the party for her birthday, so you gonna come, DJ, bring everybody, come perform, get the crowd hype. That was that. She don't need that. I know. Why do you need a crowd hype for Beyonce? Yeah, exactly. The crowd's already hype. I would be like, get the fuck off the stage, bitch. Bitch, I want to see her. I spent $700 worth of Beyonce. I don't want to see no fucking Lil Wayne. Get the fuck out of here, bitch.

Fucking loser. Right. She said, I want to thank everybody that performed earlier. Y'all, that was nice. Great try. And then her manager, Blue Ivy, she did her thing. She's about to be unstoppable. My favorite is when Rumi comes out.

I saw videos of that all over TikTok I don't like how they made her calm down at the third show They're like strap her down Did y'all see how she was huffing and puffing She's like, I guess I'll say hi They ran on through the straight jacket on her I like when she was all hyped She's like hey y'all Is this for me What the fuck hold on Take this ear monitor out. She was so cute That's adorable But I like seeing Blue Ivy I feel like she's,

transforming into Beyonce. She's the new blood. I want to know she can sing, though. I heard that she can sing. She was on someone's live or something like that. She's probably in fucking lessons. Did y'all watch Lion King? Did she have to sing in that? I never watched it. I'm trying to remember. What's it called? The Mufasa. She was good of it, Kiara.

But I don't think she sang. I don't think so. I think she had like a cute little number but like you didn't really and when you watching it you don't really think of this as Blue Ivy. You just you know look she's a good like talking voice where like, or I guess like a voiceover, like a radio voice where like, it sounds like you wouldn't think that was her. Or I guess like seeing like the little lion. And then like, like you wouldn't put like, Oh, that's right.

Yeah. Cause like the way her voice is like, is it like a really good, like, I guess like, like, right. I don't know. Acting voice. I don't fucking know what you want to call it. Like a voiceover. Speaking voice. Yeah. Something of the sorts, but yeah, she was getting it too. She was, she was killing it, When she did her little solo, I was like, okay, little mama, I'll see you. Yeah. She said, I'm going to get my shit together this time and get it together.

I was also worried for her safety when she kept riding on these, like, floating crafts. The horseshoe in the car. I was like, ma'am, can you get out of the sky? The horseshoe was the one that scared me because she was going real fast in that thing. I was like, that shit's going to snap. She's zooming up the stage so fucking fast. I was like, oh, hold on, mama, that's too fast. Why's her hair blowing? I don't see no fans on that horseshoe. she's up there going. Oh, you know what?

When I was at the fucking foot of the stage, there is fans in that fucking horseshoe. There's what in there? There are two in there. They're in between. Oh, to balance it or something? Because when it came down, when it came down, I was looking. I said, that bitch got fans installed. This is too much. She said, the hair's gonna always be blowing. Okay. It's hot. I'm hot. She said, call me Fabio. We must be the same because I'm always hot too.

I need a fan everywhere I go but yeah that kind of made me nervous with that one little seat buckle that was it I was like bitch if you fucking snap, in that car how do I do that I don't know that's intense some ropes at her she got some trust I don't know I saw a thread of people like she's coming to Chicago we ain't got no roof at our stadium how's she gonna do that, somebody's like bitch you saw the movie where she said she gotta build the roof, right oh damn Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, because of the... Because they had Soulja Fielded. Yeah. Yeah, it's open. But maybe she won't put a roof on it. Who knows? Change up the show. She said, you're about to put these ropes... Put a zip line. Right. She's going to come down on the horseshoe, fly to the stage. I was like, imagine being crushed by Beyonce's Cadillac. Like, what the fuck? I will live, honey. He's dead, but he's living right now. All right. Okay. Just pay off my student

loans, mama. If I don't die. But if I die, I'm happy. Thank you. Damn, softening her blow. What's that line she says in that song?

What would you say now that you have killed me? Yes, queen. I better be the last photo of the show at the fucking concert, bitch. Oh, this is what I wanted to ask y'all. So was the guest, because I won't do no spoilers, but was the guest that came out in Renaissance. Did that person come out every single show? No. It was just on her birthday. That's it.

No. No, for Cowboy Carter. But when they did like Renaissance, when they did that little intermission of like the Renaissance Vulcan and all that stuff, did that person come every single show? Yes. Oh, okay. And then also I heard like when the guy was doing it, he said, oh, and special guests. So I don't know if they're going to go like every single show. Because I thought they was on tour with Lady Gaga. Is that who you're talking about? I'm assuming so. The one white one? Yeah. Yeah.

So you seen that person every show you went to? Yeah. Oh, okay. But it said, oh, welcome a special guest. And then she comes out, but then supposedly she's on tour with Gaga. So I don't know if she's going to be at the rest of the Cowboy Carter. Okay. Maybe it was just like an L.A. theme before they went on tour. Yeah, but I guess we'll find out what we see on TikTok if those people in Chicago posted what they were on tour.

That was my favorite part too. I know. Like, I was like, it felt like I was back at Renaissance. But I like how they switched it up and it was like country renaissance. It was like a different vibe. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah. And also my favorite part was a tap dancer. The little solo, the girl. Oh, yeah. She was good. That was good. My favorite part was just getting dressed up in like cowboy gear. Yes. What y'all wear? I wear an all white Kentucky fried chicken Colonel Sanders outfit.

I love CMA. This is like my first, well now it's the second time because renaissance everybody was dressed up but it's like i've never seen people like dress up for a concert yeah right the other day is that a new thing i think beyonce started it well i feel like because we all knew it was like she's doing cowboy and everybody wants to but like for renaissance she was like this is the colors yeah and everybody came in fucking metallic silver well

she said at our concert she was like thank you guys for dressing up and i was like oh she thanked me but i love like i love like going like to sofa and like seeing like every fucking body in cowboy boots and hats. It really felt like a cultural moment. Yeah. I loved it. I was like, oh my God, look at everybody. You know what? It was a mixed crowd, too. It was like everybody and anybody. Old, young, white, black, Asian. Like, everybody and they fucking mama. Grandma was there, dressed up.

Like, come on. It was fun. Sunday best. And it was like, they was all in their fucking get up. The vibes were good. Yeah. The what? The vibes were good. Oh, yeah, the vibes was vibing. I will say, I think the vibes at Renaissance was better. Yeah.

Yeah because i think it was more like you know liberating party yeah joy yeah it wasn't like it was like cool here but i was like i feel like we was chit-chat with everybody fucking renaissance yeah like it was just like i don't know it just felt like i knew these bitches forever and i didn't know who the fuck they was i see what you mean yeah because like at cowboy carter you just feel like it still feel like it was like kind

of off well i was actually chatting with a whole bunch of fucking people at fucking cowboy carter like i got really drunk and we had those really oh my god the drinks were so expensive but girl it was like 110 bucks for three drinks.

I bought two drinks it was 89 god damn you better get drunk and one of them was a water i was like okay i was like are you fucking kidding me but whatever i was like we're i was like pretended like it was disneyland i was like we're just gonna go and we're just gonna do it all we're gonna get the stupid cowboy hot drink i bought so much merch too oh did you um this bitch i think you bought way more than me i know i'm actually shocked i bought it i bought it

Basically. Somebody was at the SoFi Stadium. They spent over $1,000 on fucking merch. Wow. I mean, I can see how you can because on the last night, I spent $400.

I mean, that's only like 10 items. And that was only for four items. And two of them was mine. Oh, shit. Damn. And then in the line. But actually, the fucking, not even her original merch, but like some of the merch that people was just coming in there with was even popping off. Yeah. Like they looked it good.

Like her, the quality of the shirts are like way like thicker than those bootleggers shirts. Are you like your stand so you can breathe? No, I like it thicker. Oh, thicker, huh? Just like it thick. Yeah. Were they the bootleggers when I bought off of that line that I was in?

No. No, that wasn't. You bought the real shit, bitch. Right. The boon egg is outside. Yeah, they're outside. What about a pond? Walking around screaming. Can't go and strip my $5. What's the abs you need? Then I got the long, the blue long sleeve shirt. And then I got the fucking, what is it? The slutty jersey, the blue one. Oh, I bought two. I bought the red and the blue. It's cute. I had to pay a gate and let me cut to the front of the line.

He was already at the front of the line. I said, I'll buy you a shirt if you let me cut. Oh my God. I'd be like, get in, bitch. You better. I said, look, I got the American Express, mama. I'm going to buy it. What'd you buy? The same shirt? I don't know. I said, girl, get whatever you want. And so the lady said, I said, it's all together. Come on, come on, come on, come on. And then somebody said, can I say, you got to give the gays $100 if you want to cut.

And they were like laughing so fucking hard. I was like, bitch, I'm not playing. That's not a joke. I ain't joking, bitch. But yeah, so. Yeah. Oh, shit. Damn, that's a lot of money.

All for the queen. it was a good show though like I hands down is glad I'm glad that I went it was a moment it was it was a whole different vibe than the first one so like just to see her, switch up like that not switch up but like just maneuver through, the genre like that it's just like I like Cowboy Carter but I think I'm still like comparing the show to Renaissance because I feel like Renaissance, felt like so like lively it was more lively so cohesive i feel like cowboy carter

okay maybe because she implemented, renaissance it felt like all over the place to me i didn't i like so i just keep thinking about renaissance and i'm like i don't feel like it was good as renaissance that's true what like i don't know how to explain it what like how do they bring the robots in if it's like a cowboy type of theme i can't see what it was the same robots but they're now they were like it was like gold cowboy and then like all of her stuff she had a little hat on top of it so like

he smoked the robot arm smoking a cigarette and shit little asslitch hats on the robot yeah so like i was like oh okay she's like and when she's in the thing and like the metal's coming off that's like a cowboy suit now and before it was like all chrome like over her and renaissance oh yeah and i'm like oh she got the little cowboy hat now and all the little cowboy shit but i was like.

I don't like this. I want like, you wanted it to be something totally different in regards of how cater to the album, like leave Renaissance out of it. I think I just wanted Renaissance out of it. See, but like, cause if she would have did it the original way, that robot probably would have been the cowboy robot anyway from the start. And then, but we so used to that robot doing that Renaissance that was just like, damn, it fit with that.

Yeah. Because the first night I was like, I was like confused when she, I was like, what is, what is happening? Because she's like, welcome to the Renaissance. And I was like, the Renaissance? What? And it was like, this is what I want to see. And I was like, wait, is she for real? Is the show not over? Because she did, this was already fucking long already. So I was like kind of confused because it was like already 10 something.

And I'm like, and then she started singing it was going on. I'm like, oh my God, it's not over yet. And I was like, oh my God, she's doing Renaissance for real? Okay, I guess mama go on. I mean, when she did the little idea, it was like, yes, bitch, get it. Like, I don't know. Like, I like Renaissance, but I don't know. I just wanted more cowboy. More country, more cowboy. Did you feel like she was like being cheap by giving us old shit?

That's what it gave me. Like, bitch, I saw this last week. Like, why are you recycling? Just Renaissance, but you're fine with the other music coming in or? Yeah, like she could even buy different music in. Bring all... Like, that bitch got so much music. I didn't see Renaissance tour, so I didn't mind it. And I think that's what it is. A lot of people didn't see Renaissance. So if you didn't see it, then maybe you liked it, but... But you were like, sis, what the fuck?

That kind of like... It threw me off, like, the first night seeing that. I was like, what? Took you out of the fantasy. Yeah. Sad. And I don't like how she didn't have that many changes either. Renaissance, she changed... Her mama said she changed... So she said every opening, she wanted a different outfit. She would not repeat the same outfit for the opening. And she wanted to change a minimum of 10 times during Renaissance.

And her mama said, girl, that's too much. You need like five stylists to help you get in out these outfits. She said, well, make it happen. You said this time, dry clean everything. This shit going all stage. Because they said that she had over 150 outfits and she wanted to showcase them all. I mean, I kind of didn't. I feel like she didn't change that often during the show. Yeah. Or at this tour. But I didn't mind it. And I kind of noticed that she

didn't change a lot. But I was like, well, at least you're not off the stage all the fucking time. Yeah. Because when she was off the stage, I did notice. I'm like, where is she at? I was like, I was nice because I was like, I get to sit my fucking ass down. My fucking feet is burning. Look. Oh, I know. Those cowboy boots aren't actually that nice. I took mine off and my feet was still in the boot. I was like, why my feet got a heartbeat now? I was like, fuck.

But I did like the visuals a lot. So I didn't mind her like... Cutting away? Yeah. Yeah. But I loved it so much. It was cute. Can't wait to act three. When it's not over, you can hop on the plane. I ain't gonna do that. They in Chicago, nah. I'm just kind of nervous for her act three. Why? In what way?

She can't top it no i'm sure she will because she's like she's like a student of history like music history right when she yodel this shit i said oh like she's not just putting out like, whatever music like she's studying the history of that music which is why which is i had to stop the other day which is why i think she's so successful in like all her music because like it's not like she just like oh here's a good beat in a little one two three song and like put it out Like, no,

she is like studying the history and the art and like everything that goes with it into making like the album, which is why I think all her albums do so well. Now, I'm just like nervous because this is a different genre. So I'm like, what is it going to sound like? Is it going to be good? How am I going to act? What am I going to wear? I know. That's what I'm worried about. I'm like, what am I going to wear to that concert? Everybody going to be emo. Literally, literally.

Not a Beyonce emo song. But like when Cowboy Carter first came out, I was like, when I was like playing it, I was like, what the fuck is this? That was my first thought. when it was like, American, I was like, what? And I said, you know what? I saw this interview that Adele said, we make our music and put it together, how we want you to listen to it without fucking skipping. I said, okay, I'm going to just sit here.

I ain't going to skip no song. I'm going to just listen to it from start to finish. And then I was like, oh, okay. Well, she has a good song with Jack White from The White Stripes. That's like a rock song. Is that the daddy? Yeah, that's a, yeah. Don't hurt yourself. Yeah. She randomly sent him flowers last year, just out of the blue. Maybe she'll collab with him again. And I would say, Yeah Yeah is a rock song. I think that was an Easter egg. Oh, yeah.

Almost like a... Which one? Yeah, yeah. It's almost like a rock adjacent. That gave me Tina Turner. So guess what? That song was recorded during the 4 album. Really? Back then? The producer of the song said, that's a recycled song from when she recorded the album 4. What? He said it was called, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like 4 yas. Oh, okay. and he's like those background vocals are the same we never changed it he said she just changed a few lyrics and like recorded again and kept the background vocals.

He said it didn't go on the album 4 and then now out of nowhere it was just like yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that shit I love that song that's my one of my favorite songs on the album yeah yeah, mine is bucking like that little three piece honey bucking not three piece honey three piece biscuit, that's what I think of It's like a combo. I like that combo song. Yeah, that's a good one. Sweet Honey Bucket of Chicken. Bucket. Whoa. That's my favorite dance break, too. Oh, yeah. Like a mechanical bull.

What else did y'all like? But yeah, I was in the 230 row, and I barely even noticed when she was on stage. I'm just seeing her in the visuals. I'm like, as Beyonce on the stage, I'm like, I can't even see you, girl. Wait, you said you was in 230? Yeah, but I mean, I could see her, but it was still like, I can't see her. What row were you in? I think like 231. No, that's the section, which row? Oh, 14. Bitch, I should be able to see hers. Yeah, but it wasn't, like, close.

Look at the fucking screen. That's what I was doing. You gotta pay that money. It seemed like you didn't fucking see her at all. I was like, dang. I could have looked a little closer. But I wanted the car to drive by me, and she did not drive by me either. I know. I was like, Beyonce. How come the tickets got so cheap? Because I think nobody bought them. Really? Where all was it sold out? Okay. Because it seemed like it was crowded as fuck. Yeah.

I think everybody then bought them once their ticket prices went down. I think somebody's lying. Because we, so we bought the tickets when it was on, like, the pre-sale or whatever it is, when you first get it. I think those scalpers, what happens is those scalpers buy a shit ton of tickets. You know what? Somebody else said that. Somebody else got fucked over because they bought so many tickets. And then they tried to resell it. And they tried to resell it, but the tickets was already low.

So people's like, I'm not about to buy tickets from you. But they already bought like 20 fucking tickets. And now they're just out of fucking money. Oh, that's true. But then it's like, well, then how was it packed? But how did it not sell out? So if I bought 20 tickets, I bought 20. She got the money still. Right. Yeah. If you didn't show up, that's all you. I don't know. I think the ticket sales versus who's there is a different story. But like, if all my tickets sold, it sold out.

But I mean there was tickets that were on sale like last minute still and then there was pre-sale tickets there was tickets on sale like resale tickets and they were still more expensive than the ones that were like, the stadium selling them and it's like what the fuck why am I gonna buy it more expensive from your scalper ass when the stadium is selling it for cheaper the same area and I think they low-key had those wristbands on us so they could see like visually how many people were in there.

Cause I'm like All these fucking lights. This motherfucker look packed in a motherfucker. Where the empty at? Right. I liked my wristband. I did too. I kept them all. Y'all got all four? What, you got all four? You got all two? I got my floor one. We forgot. I got an extra one. We forgot our fucking Cowboy Carter mug cups. Y'all left them now? In the fucking theater or wherever. I guess we're just wasted and just left them or something. Some random girl

we were walking. She said, grab that cup and give it to me. I looked, I said, oh damn I should have grabbed it right motherfuckers in there lit to the motherfucker right like god damn sad but I implore anyone that's a doubter of the queen to go see her, Or just watch something on YouTube of her that they repost or TikTok. Or you can go and watch Blackest King on Disney+. You can go watch Cowboy Cotta on Netflix. Cowboy Christmas, yeah. Or you can either watch Coachella.

Coachella's still my favorite. It's that dude smacks. It's still my favorite. I think that's her best, best, best performance. Even though it wasn't a fucking concert, but it was still two and a half hours. It's like her shit getting longer and longer. I just need her to just go ahead and just trickle it down. She said no. Papa needs to go to sleep. Now she's making us do a fucking part-time four-hour shift with her. Right. I'm like, you're going to have to pay me, bitch.

Making me clock in at seven o'clock and leaving at midnight. But yeah. Workers are like, tell me about it, bitch. I love her, though. I'm excited. I'm happy. Y'all got any more comments about Cowboy Kata? It was fun. It was a fun time.

Oh, when my neighbor saw us leaving, i guess she saw us the next day and she was like you guys look like you were the happiest ever and i was like oh my god no not this being the best time of our lives are you a hardcore beyonce fan are you just like a fan i was a bigger fan like when i was younger but i don't really care about being a fan of people but i do enjoy it's vibes let's give it fraud, I like all her. But then she's at the show. I like. No.

I like all her upbeat music. But this concert. But this album had a lot of like slow songs. A lot of sad stuff. So a lot of it I was kind of like okay. But I was like let's do more like y'all y'all shit. Okay. But I'm not a Beyonce hater. Okay. But I will discuss that she probably is a Satanist. Oh my God. But I don't hold that against her. No she's not. Actually a point for Nino.

Right he actually liked that she liked that point, I won't hurt to be a son I think there's like actually I'm sure there's different meaning to why those people came out in red in the group with those fucking robes on their on their head it must mean something because you know she don't just do anything when I looked at it it looked like it reminded me of him as, Handmaid's Tale or whatever the show that was yeah but I'm but it must mean

something specifically in the art that she's putting out like, look it up because like what would like what does that even symbolize us and then like the light shone and they all turn around and look into the light and they're just like singing and they just walk away in their little red outfits and like that was it satanic ritual.

Also i don't like how she wasn't like really like showing shit on the screen like a lot like girl show them on the screen we can't fucking see it's fucking dark in the stadium i and then i didn't even realize the first night they were fucking walking on stage i'm like why are they screaming i don't even see shit because then they're like walking along the perimeter of the stage, it's dark as fuck you can't see shit what are we screaming at like what are we screaming at,

i was like a little bit like confused a little bit because i'm like what are you saying with like this like big red screen and like you're doing like the national anthem it's like oh it was like red right in blue right it's like mostly red but it was giving like that's the that's the blood of the slaves that built this country. It was giving MAGA vibes. Girl, you know what? And on that note, cut the tape. And on that note, good night.

Her weird, like, gothic lace face. It's kind of creepy, but... I like that. It's kind of cute. The little crow, and the fuck the flag. I was like, tea, bitch. I liked her, like, neon light looks, and, like, her slutty Dolly Parton vibes. Oh, yeah. Those were cute. Is that it, everybody, for Beyonce? Yes. All right. Si, si puede. From all of us here at the Beyonce headquarters, we like to say, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya. Who do you?

You're good enough, I guess. You're smart enough, probably, and someone likes you. Good night. Good night. Music.
