Tina Knowles Jokes Beyoncé Gets ‘Really Mean’ Backstage
Tina Knowles made a joke about how Beyoncé is during costume changes backstage. Knowles was a surprise guest on Sherri Shepard’s eponymous talk show for the Halloween episode where the fashion designer spilled on how different Beyoncé is in the midst of a wardrobe switch.
“We laughed about this recently because I was saying, ‘Girl, you get really mean back there.’ And I am really happy that I don’t have to be back there anymore because I used to do the quick change,” she said. “And she would just be… We laughed because she used to do ‘Flaws and All’ and she would say, ‘I’m a bitch in the morning!’ And I would be like, ‘In the evening too when that concert going!'”
Well, Ms. Tina doesn’t have to worry about any costume changes as Beyoncé ended her Renaissance World Tour last month. The Renaissance World Tour began overseas in May and the multi-hyphenate artist had her first North American stop in June. The tour was in support of Beyoncé’s Grammy-winning seventh studio album, Renaissance.
Beyoncé’s Renaissance Is Coming To Theaters
If you missed the tour, or just want to relive some of your favorite tour moments, you’re in luck as Renaissance will be coming to theaters starting Dec. 1.
According to an official synopsis of Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce: the film “accentuates the journey of Renaissance World Tour, from its inception, to the opening in Stockholm, Sweden, to the finale in Kansas City, Missouri.”
“It is about Beyonce’s intention, hard work, involvement in every aspect of the production, her creative mind and purpose to create her legacy, and master her craft,” the synopsis continues. “Received with extraordinary acclaim, Beyonce’s Renaissance World Tour created a sanctuary for freedom, and shared joy, for more than 2.7 million fans.”
You can buy your tickets in advance on Beyoncé’s official website or your local AMC Theater.

Beyoncé: The Best Viral Moments From Her 'Renaissance Tour'
Donald Glover's Swarm "Shade"?

Some fans were convinced that Beyoncé shaded Donald Glover’s Amazon Prime series Swarm when she was performing the Renaissance track “America Has a Problem.” She shouts to the crowd, “Swarm on these hands, n—-!”
The series, which features Dominique Fishback and her mentee Chlöe Bailey, is about the extreme fandom and how it leads Fishback’s character (Andrea) to commit violent acts due to an obsession with a pop star (who seems to resemble Beyoncé). The series came out shortly before Beyoncé hit the road.
However, it could also just be a coincidence that Beyoncé used the word “swarm” and did not call out the series since she is dressed in a bee-inspired stage costume. The “shade” was never addressed by either party publicly.

Beyoncé is known for her visual albums and it is no secret that the Beyhive has wanted a visual component alongside Beyoncé’s Renaissance. However, we’ve never gotten a direct response until now. During her Kentucky tour stop in July, she gave fans an answer. The singer responded, “You are the visuals baby” in a now-viral clip.
