Religion has always been the go-to for pop stars seeking to portray themselves as rebels; think Madonna during her entire career. Think Katy Perry trying to evict nuns from their home because she wanted it.
Now think Beyoncé who just snatched up a church in New Orleans for $850,000. To be fair, the 100-year-old, church has been out of commission since a lot of the members died, but still … Beyoncé … church?
Why? Oh, she thinks she’s some kind of a god … of auto-tune and weaves and oscillating fans. Or maybe she’s found another way to whore herself out for coins. See, recently, about 900 of her most devoted zombies began attending a church service in San Francisco called “Beyoncé Mass.”
And now Beyoncé bought a church in Nawlin’s? How long before she starts her own mass, and sells tickets to his and turns the alter into a concession stand?
If it ain’t making her money, Beyoncé ain’t doin’ it.

ME-OW!
ReplyDeletebob is in fine form this holiday weekend with snarky dirt on all the has-beens out there. but I still would not mind taking hugh grant for a ride (just once)!
ummm. Rebbie. "Reaction" and "Centipede" That's like one more hit than David Soul had!
ReplyDeleteRe: Hughie Grant. I do hope the current BBC 3-parter 'A Very English Scandal' with H.G. playing the true story of the leader of our third-largest political party, the Liberals, who had a gay affair (when it was still illegal) in the 1960s - and in the 1970s was indicted for conspiracy to the murder of his former lover, gets an airing outside these shores. Although we've only had the first part so far it really is a belter - with the said H.G. improving with every appearance he's now making, whether on cinema screen or TV - ever since 'Florence Foster Jenkins' followed by 'Paddington 2' and now this, where he even eerily manages to look like the late leader, Jeremy Thorpe. He's really showing consistency in what he's capable of. (Applause! Bravo!)
ReplyDeleteOh, and continuing from above (re H.Grant) - the former lover/intended murder victim is played by none other than the ubiquitous Ben Whishaw. The original chap is still alive, though now well into his 70s - and complains that Whishaw plays him as being too camp(!). Well, he would say that wouldn't he?
ReplyDeleteParis Jackson certainly is a gorgeous young woman.

ReplyDeleteYou've proved my point. Centipede?
I had to laugh; the Beeb headlined their article about Hugh Grant's matrimonial affair - Hugh Grant to marry for the first time - prescient or what?
ReplyDeleteICK!!!
ReplyDelete@Raybeard
ReplyDeleteGrant has proven himself to be more than a one-note actor of late. I hope they air that 'Scandal' over here.
A holiday sized Snarkaday!
ReplyDeleteI actually bought Centipede! Have I just plummeted in your estimation?

ReplyDeleteNo doubt Travolta pays and pays... and pays for silence.... global silence.
ReplyDeleteOh my, the Church of Bey... some people will go to any lengths to get a tax exempt status.
Paris is the beauty Michael always wanted to be...
