Beyoncé will bring her Grammy-nominated album 'Renaissance' to stadiums around the world.

21, 2023 – St. Louis, MO – Dome at America’s Center Aug. It seems possible that a future “Renaissance” video project could be part of that deal as well. That blockbuster performance was later released as the “Homecoming” album and — via a It was an elaborate and highly theatrical performance — for which sources say she was paid some $24 million — with an all-female orchestra, a battery of dancers, a small lake, fireworks, a 50-foot hydraulic platform, three costume changes for the singer and a guest appearance from her and Jay’s daughter Blue Ivy, but no songs at all from “Renaissance” — a tease that could mean she’ll premiere one or two on the Grammys, or even save them for the tour.

Beyonce is set to make two stops in Canada, including in Toronto on July 8 and in Vancouver on Sept. Her last solo tour was in 2016, but she went on tour with her husband Jay Z in 2018. Her 2022 album “Renaissance” is a celebration of dance music and is nominated for album of the year.

And for the third time in her career, Beyoncé, 41, is Already the winningest woman in Grammy history, with 28 victories, Beyoncé has a field-leading nine nominations this year.

To listen to Beyoncé's Renaissance is to walk through a museum. Prolific fine art curator Hans Ulrich Obrist described his archival work as “the protest against ...

And in the best course of events, it is both.” Beyoncé has dedicated her career to making both. Without her wealth and her team, Beyoncé the individual would not be able to make this art. The music is unimpeachably solid, and Beyoncé made efforts to ensure everyone who was brought into her museum was handsomely compensated for their contributions. Of course, this can be mutually beneficial and depends on who’s doing the connecting—Beyoncé associating herself with Diana Ross sends a different message than associating herself with Sia, or Madonna associating herself with Beyoncé. This is the Grammy voters’ opportunity to honor not just Beyoncé’s artistry, but her unparalleled skill as a curator. It’s entirely appropriate to question Beyoncé’s brand, but it’s undeniable that the ultimate product was created with an abundance of care. Beyoncé only won Best Music Video and Best Urban Contemporary Album in 2017, losing Album Of The Year to a famously contrite Adele. The array of genres in Lemonade came together to tell a story, and “Daddy Lessons” is a vital entry into both that narrative and Beyoncé’s entire oeuvre. The loss prompted a wide discussion about what kind of music the Grammys will vote for; not just the race of those behind it, but the methods used to make it. Especially in the internet age when anything and everything is available with a click, there is simply too much art in the world to sift through. There’s an obvious and documented trend of the Grammys awarding white artists over anyone else, but beyond that, the committees have demonstrated their ignorance about what Beyoncé is—not just an artist or a performer, but a curator of the highest caliber. And while Beyoncé has 28 Grammy wins to her credit—and a total of 79 nominations, including nine this year—she only holds one statuette in the show’s general categories: Song of the Year for “Single Ladies” back in 2010.

For years, fans have bought "speculative tickets" from resellers, who list tickets they don't actually own yet on resale sites. By Ethan Millman ...

VividSeats’ terms and conditions states that speculative ticketing isn’t permitted on its platform except for members of its “Zone Sales Program.” When asked about its Zone Sales program, VividSeats referred to it as a way for fans to “pre-order hard-to-find tickets.” Only “pre-approved sellers who have a track record of delivering value for fans” are allowed in the Zone Program, VividSeats said. ”It is an invaluable option for fans who want to be certain that they will have tickets to a high-demand event, and to be able to do so in an easy and convenient way.” SeatGeek states in its terms of service that “professional sellers” may be permitted to list speculative tickets for some events, but declined to comment further on the practice beyond their terms of service when contacted by Rolling Stone. Other times, scalpers are listing tickets they have no claim to — typically at a marked-up price when the event is in high demand — looking for a fan to buy the speculative listing while they get the actual ticket and pocket the difference. “As policymakers around the country consider ways to enhance competition and guarantee consumer protections for fans, it’s critical to note that an industry-wide open and integrated ticketing system would allow all ticket marketplaces to better regulate this practice.” Those tickets are sometimes listed on some platforms as “zone seats” where the actual seat number isn’t listed, which gives the sellers more leeway to find tickets for the buyer in the general area they selected. For some events, someone may have season tickets at a venue that could guarantee them access to a sporting event or concert, and they can sell tickets prior to an on-sale period knowing they’ll eventually own their ticket and can transfer it to another buyer. SeatGeek and VividSeats specify that only pre-approved sellers are allowed to list speculative tickets on their sites. It isn’t often easy for a regular consumer to tell when a speculative seller has access to season tickets versus when they’re selling tickets they haven’t secured yet. From a company-facing point of view, Berchtold worries that speculative ticketing pushes the false notion that resellers listing speculative seats already got tickets in advance, which causes more vitriol toward As of publication, some of the best seats for Beyoncé’s So-Fi Stadium show in Los Angeles in September are speculatively selling for $3,064 per ticket on VividSeats. Such a practice isn’t new, nor is it in any way unique to Queen Bey.
