Beyoncé gets heated with Renaissance tour crew after on-stage mishap
Queen Bey and her hive were not “Crazy In Love” with her worker bees at a show in Chicago.
A clip of Beyoncé calling out her Renaissance World Tour stage crew, midway through her performance, has gone viral.
The video, which was posted Monday and has already clocked nearly 2 million views, shows the “Single Ladies” singer at Soldier Field in Illinois, belting her hit “1+1” from her 2011 album “4.”
Then, Ms. Knowles-Carter, 41, can be seen gesturing to members of the stage crew to turn the fan on.
Annoyed at the delay, the former “Destiny’s Child” member points to a random crew member and then to the fan while throwing, what the TikTok user called, “bombastic side eye.”
Knowles-Carter continues powering through the song by fanning herself briefly while still trying to get the attention of the crew.
Abandoning all hope of subtlety, the music icon asks point-blank to turn the machine on.
“Turn the fan on,” she sings during the song’s bridge.
Finally, the “Crazy In Love” songstress got the air she deserved and gave the crew an “ok” symbol to let them know that she was cooling down.
The Post reached out to Knowles-Carter for comment.
Viewers online said the stage fan incident evoked Pattie LaBelle’s infamous “Where are my background singers?” moment at the 1996 National Tree Lighting.
One devotee on TikTok joked that Beyoncé’s crew was too busy “enjoying the show,” while others accused the superstar of hiring “unobservant” tour producers, as one claimed: “This keeps happening.”
“But why isn’t EVERY fan on before she even comes out,” reasoned another. “Y’all need to stay ready.”
“How do they always seem not to be paying attention to her,” questioned a third person. “What do they be doing?”
This is not the first time Queen B has had an onstage malfunction.
While in Amsterdam, one fan managed to capture the moment Knowles-Carter gave her crew death glares for not bringing the mobile stairs out for her to dismount a crystal horse.
The clip, which was posted to TikTok went viral with nearly 723,000 views.
