//Bow Down To: Beyonce’s Live Singing Ability//

The internet gossip circuit was set on fire this week when Howard Stern played a clip of what was touted as raw soundboard feed from Beyonce’s November appearance on the Today Show concert series. In the clip, Beyonce sounds as if she is struggling vocally to get through her hit “If I Were A Boy.” If you haven’t heard it yet, take a listen. It was later revealed that the audio was indeed altered.
More hilarious than the actual clip is the number of people who truly believed it was real and came out to say things like, “See! I told you Beyonce couldn’t sing live!” As much as I felt Beyonce’s manager dad Mathew Knowles went off the unprofessional end a bit with his response to the ridiculous controversy, I have to agree with him.
Beyonce is no new singer. She’s been around for 12 years. She’s performed hundreds of timse on television and in concert. For those years of amazing performance to all of a sudden get pushed aside in the minds of some listeners because of one “off” moment shows how much some people just want to find major fault with the Mighty B.
Question anything else you want — her songwriting, her acting — but there’s no denying Bey is a REAL singer. I bow down to B’s live singing ability and you should too. Check out some epic live moments from Bey below:
