Beyoncéis feeling like” forever she’s that girl” after the success of her new concert film.
After sharing how challenging the project was, due to “the short [turnaround] time,” the “Cuff It” singer shared that “it was so worth all the grind” and shouted out her fans.
The “Alien Superstar” artist revealed that her fans’ efforts ofdressing upat the movie theater and watching the film as if it was the live show haven’t gone unnoticed. “I love seeing everyone all dressed up in their most opulent lewks in the theaters. Themute challengesstill happening, even in the theater!! Y’all are cracking me up. Please keep that energy going. I can’t wait to see what else yall do :)”
The pop icon also mentioned that she’s equally as grateful to see others learn more about her personal story, which is candidly integrated into the concert movie. “I also love seeing the positive take aways from people who were not my fans or didn’t yet know my story,” the singer-songwriter added. “The people who had no interest in seeing my shows who have now gained a deeper understanding and respect for all it takes to be a RENAISSANCE woman.”
Before wrapping up her message, Queen Bey also honored her late Uncle Johnny, who died from complications of AIDS when she was 17 and to whomshe dedicatedRenaissance. “I’m very proud that we launched the film on World AIDS Day in memory of my Uncle Johnny,” she added. “I pray I continue to make something that lifts all of y’all up the way you continue to lift me up.”
“While I’m often critical and feel my art is never finished, the pendulum swings. I feel gratitude,” her note concluded. ‘ We did it.’ We have the #1 movie in the country! And a 💯 on Rotten Tomatoes 🍅 🥹 And it’s because of you and your support! I humbly thank you.”
