belated, but oh well
This is a big, hearty "FUCK YOU" to everyone on my fb friends feed (who won't see this) who's being an asshole about how "NO, BEYONCE CAN NEVER REDEEM HERSELF FOR NOT HAVING THE GUTS TO USE HER REAL VOICE AT THE INAUGURATION."
Obviously you fuckers have never tried to perform live on an instrument that requires breathing in weather below fifty degrees. I've done it, oh, fifty or so times (marching band, mostly). Also I go running in cold weather.
YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO ME SOMETIMES? I GET SICK. I START COUGHING. I BREATHE WRONG. BAD THINGS HAPPEN.
So Beyonce's supposed to get sick at the Inauguration with the Superbowl less than two weeks away? GOOD CALL, ASSHOLES.
Also Yo-Yo Ma pantomimed to pre-recorded music. IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR YO-YO MA, IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR LITERALLY EVERYONE ON THE ENTIRE PLANET.
Also Aretha's on her side.
Fucking kyriarchy. If Beyonce didn't sing the SSB dead perfect, everyone would have said she was THE MOST TERRIBLE SINGER EVER. If she sings it with tape, SHE'S THE MOST TERRIBLE SINGER EVER. If she performs the Superbowl live (she did), IT'S NOT PERFECT AND SHE'S THE MOST TERRIBLE SINGER EVER. If she lip-synchs to a tape of herself, SHE'S THE MOST TERRIBLE PERSON EVER. Can't win for losing.
BEYONCE IS FUCKING AWESOME.
