Beyoncé documents the journey to her triumphant Coachella performance in Netflix's"Homecoming." By Bethonie Butler Bethonie Butler Reporter covering television and pop culture Email Bio Follow April 17 at 1:36 PM Contrary to reports, Beyoncé did not wake up like this — it took grueling work.
Beyoncé was still rebounding from a difficult pregnancy when she began rehearsing for Beychella. “It’s my first time coming home, on the stage, after giving birth,” Beyoncé tells us. “I’m creating my own homecoming. And it’s hard.” In an early rehearsal scene, it’s revealed that the singer was stacking SoulCycle classes on top of her demanding rehearsal schedule.
“All right, I want y’all to repeat after me,” she tells the energized Coachella crowd. “I’m feeling myself. Say it: I’m feeling myself. I’m feeling myself.” “I feel like I’m just a new woman, in a new chapter of my life, and I’m not even trying to be who I was,” Beyoncé says. “It’s just so beautiful that children do that to you.”“In the beginning, it was so many muscle spasms and just internally, my body was not connected. My mind was not there,” Beyoncé says. “My mind wanted to be with my children. What people don’t see is the sacrifice.”
"To do this and have the Pan and the sororities and things that black families value up on a stage for the world to see and understand us a little bit more, it’s just all a blessing,” dancer-choreographer Edidiong Emah says in the film. Emah, who was born in Nigeria and grew up in Atlanta, has a family connection to Morehouse and Spelman, two renowned HBCUs.
No detail was left to chance. This won’t come as a surprise if you’re familiar with Beyoncé's work and/or if you’ve seen various YouTube videos documenting her “bossiest moments.” . But Beyoncé notes in “Homecoming” that she had a hand in every aspect of her performance.
Yall some hating asses on this thread. You actually took the time to share your negativity towards which speaks volumes about your inner spirit.
Time to retire....
She's fat
Poor women sacrifice their hundreds of desires just to satisfy lusts of drooling men, but ultimately what they gain, only few claps that too till they are young.
Somebody tell me why she matters so much.
Overrated
Who cares
Blah, blah, blah, blah, no one cares.
SNORING IS NOT THAT EASY FOR ME AND MY FAMILY AND SOME MIGHT SAY THAT IT IS TO ENSURE THAT THE CHILD IS NOT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
