faux deep intro

What was faux deep about it?

This was more about being flashy than giving a heartfelt performance

So like most award show performances are designed to be? Makes sense. Were you under the impression that she performed solely to give us a heartfelt sentimental moment?

I don't know what else she's trying to prove and why she can't let loose a bit

By now you should be aware that this is her style of performing, refined and intentional. Why is that perceived as being her attempt at proving something? Do you really think she feels she needs to prove anything?

...why do I need to report an explanation of my opinion to you? If you disagree, wonderful, but I still feel how I feel. Have a good day.

You certainly don’t need to. If you thrive off spewing nonsense you can’t justify, get your life! LOL

Oscars producer said that to hype people, not Beyonce or anyone from her team.

Quite boring 

[Magneto 13,437]

Omg that color is so satisfying! She looked, performed and sounded perf as per usual. A queen

[alsemanche 93,885]

Great performance as usual but the song is meh..

People really need to stop hyping up artists and setting them up for disappointment tbh. This being hyped as an unforgettable performance and Gaga's look being hyped up by Freddy were choices because both weren't that special or groundbreaking

Like when Gaga put out a dance pop record and announced a tour during the peak of a deadly and ongoing pandemic? 

A dance pop record that got pushed back for raising charity, an album with almost little to no promotion because of the pandemic and the BLM movement.

A tour that was announced but ultimately got cancelled till indefinite notice. 

So please keep Gaga out of this rhetoric.

[Chesescake 4,004]

That song really drag everything down.

[GipJo 2,912]

Hmmm, no impact founded.

I've never understood why people act like she's some kind of once in a millennium genius performer. She pretty much just does poses on stage every time?

I'm not even a fan but she definitely deserves her title as pop royalty

I think this song simply fits better within the context of the film (that I've heard is good but haven't seen myself). That plus the overhyping set us up for disappointment.

"It'll be talked about for years" like...it was cute but I won't be talking about it for a day

I'm becoming less and less a lover of Beyoncé's new style.
