Beyonce Sung National Anthem At Obama 2nd Term Inauguration – OR did she?

No she didn’t!!!!

The cat was snatched out of the bag today and Beyoncé’s secret was leaked out, that she lip synced the national anthem at President Obama’s 2nd term inauguration yesterday; either way I wasn’t impressed.

The singer songwriter and producer Beyoncé, doesn’t have the vocals to carry such a powerful song as the National Anthem; which is why I knew she was the WRONG choice to deliver for the event.

Beyoncé is more or less, a burlesque singer/entertainer who can entertain and hold a note but gone are the days of real talents such as Whitney Houston with the exception of Jennifer Hudson of course.

I sat there baffled as the crowd went crazy as if, Beyoncé had delivered a rousing rendition of the popular anthem, when her performance was sub par to say the least. 

a U.S. Marine Band spokeswoman said today.

The band wasn’t playing when Beyoncé performed her rousing rendition of the national anthem at President Obama’s second inauguration.

“We all know Beyoncé can sing,” Master Sgt. of the U.S. Marine Band Kristin DuBois told ABC News today. “We all know the Marine Corps Band can play. We do not know why she decided to go with the pre-recorded music at the last-minute.”

DuBois later added that, to her knowledge, Beyoncé was not singing. It was Beyoncé’s voice, but a pre-recorded version heard by about a million people in Washington and millions more on television.

A representative for Beyoncé did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

DuBois also added, all other performances such as Kelly Clarkson’s rendition of “My country tis of thee” was live. The band was asked not to play for only the national anthem, DuBois added.

Beyoncé knew she couldn’t carry that song and lip synced “IT” to be on the safe side. The “Love on top” singer might be able to hold/carry a note but her vocals can’t carry that national anthem.

More on the Presidential inauguration after the break.

Beyonce Does Much To Stay Relevant

And posing in your underwear, wearing a cut-off t-shirt, that shyly exposes your breast on the cover of a major magazine, is sure to get the attention that Ms. Beyonce seeks.

The superstar singer flaunts her killer curves and sexy look on the cover of the upcoming February issue of GQ magazine, which hits newsstands on Jan. 15.

Wearing only a pair of red leopard-print underwear and a cropped T-shirt, Beyonce accessorizes her sexy appearance with nothing else but some gold jewelry and a come-hither look, the New York Daily News reports.

It seems to me that Ms. Beyonce dances on every set. When the Newtown, CT  tragedy happened, she jumped on the “ban assault weapons” wagon and became a spokesperson for that issue. After Barack Obama won his second term election, she penned an open letter to Michelle Obama. 

The buzz over Bey’s risqué cover shoot follows disappointing news for me, that she will be performing the national anthem at President Barack Obama’s inauguration ceremony on Jan. 21, which will take place at the U.S. Capitol. I was so hoping Obama’s people would reach out to Jennifer Hudson.

But Beyonce doesn’t stop there. Two weeks later, she’ll let loose with a highly anticipated Super Bowl halftime performance on Feb. 3… damn!!!!! I’m a little tired of the no-talented, attention seeking singer.

I have nothing against Beyonce and I’m a fan of some of her hits, but there are so many other talented artist out here that Beyonce can’t hold a candle too, yet they are not getting half the attention she’s getting and it’s a bit annoying.

Following the Super Bowl, Beyonce is set to premiere an HBO documentary about herself and her family that she financed, directed and produced. Wow!

“Michelle Obama “WOWS” at The Kennedy Center Honors”

Stars from New York, Hollywood and the music world joined President Barack and First lady Michelle Obama at the White House on Sunday night to salute the honorees, whose ranks included: actor Dustin Hoffman, Chicago bluesman Buddy Guy, ballerina Natalia Makarova, David Letterman and rock band Led Zeppelin at The Kennedy Center Honors.

Michelle Obama was sharp in a dazzling gold evening gown and although the White House declined to name the designer, we know it’s a Michael Kors gold lame chiffon gown from his Resort 2013 collection.

I’m not always crazy about what our first lady wears but when her outfit is a winner (like this one), I have to talk about it.

Is Michelle Obama sharp or what?

And was greeted when he walked off Airforce One by, New York Governor Cuomo, Housing Secretary Shaun Donovan, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

“We’re going to have to put some of the turf battles aside,” Obama said in remarks on the ravaged eastern shore of Staten Island. “We’re going to have to make sure that everybody is focused on doing the job as opposed to worrying about who is getting the credit or who is getting the contracts, or all that stuff that sometimes goes into the rebuilding process.”

In a three-hour sweep through storm-ravaged neighborhoods that included a helicopter tour of southern Brooklyn and Queens and meetings with storm victims on Staten Island, the President spoke in general terms about his commitment to help the city — but made no specific promises.

“I’m very proud of you, New York,” Obama said after walking through a Staten Island neighborhood that was devastated by the historic hurricane. “You guys are tough. You bounce back.”

400,000 Sign Petition for Macy’s to Oust Trump

The ReadyWriter

Because of his loud mouth, his public skepticism about President Obama’s birthplace and “sexist” comments, over 400,000 people have signed a petition asking Macy’s to sever its ties with business mogul Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump does not reflect the ‘magic of Macy’s and “We urge you to sever ties with him,” the petition reads on signon.org.

Singer and actress Cher was among those joining the “Dump Trump” campaign, calling him a “loudmouth, racist cretin” over his criticism of Obama.

“I’ll NEVER GO TO MACY’S AGAIN! I didn’t know they sold Donald Trump’s Line!” she wrote on Twitter.

Trump’s spokesman Michael Cohen, however, expressed confidence in the strength of the real estate mogul’s relationship with Macy’s.

“Mr. Trump is important to Macy’s, both as a brand and as an endorser. His ties, shirts, cufflinks, fragrances and other merchandise are top-selling items across the country – in particular Mr. Trump’s ties are the number one selling ties at Macy’s.”

Cohen questioned whether there are, in fact, 400,000 unique signatures on the petition. “Nevertheless,” he added, “the country has been founded on the principles of freedom of speech – something Mr. Trump is entitled to as well as the creator of this petition.”

Trump had not personally addressed the petition on Twitter as of Monday afternoon, but made a point of tweeting about his new clothing line for Macy’s.
