Universal health care and a living wage would quickly solve the problem.

"...but this is the US where illness is a bad choice made by the patient."
This. I got so sick of people saying that crap while she was shaking her ass on stage. I've got no problem with shaking asses and stages. It's the pretending it's somehow more respectable when Beyonce does it I had a problem with. It's either respectable because of women's freedom and ownership of their bodies or…
That is marketability, not influence. North West on the cover of a magazine would sell more issues than Justice Roberts. Who is more influential?
"And Beyonce is very, very important to many black girls both in this country and around the world."
If she's the most influential person in the world then let's put her to good use rather than traveling around singing and dancing. Perhaps we should send Beyonce in to negotiate peace between the Israelis and Palestinians then? Or she can work out a deal for the Tibetans with the Chinese? Maybe secure the safe return…
Meanwhile, Beyonce seems to be doing what she does so well—continuing to push the image of a happy, united family.
True, but business partnerships dissolve all the time for reasons that don't go that far beyond, "I can't stand to look at your stupid face anymore." Business partnerships and romantic partnerships aren't really all that different.
Agreed. Also, SHE DOESN'T WRITE HER SONGS. It's been said many times by the songwriters themselves. Why can't fans take that fact in?
Time Magazine, like every other player in the flailing and failing print industry, puts the person most likely to sell magazines on the cover of the "most influential" issue. If anyone honestly believes that Beyonce is more influential in the global sphere than, I don't know, actual world leaders, I would recommend…
If the two of them were having serious issues around the time that she was recording Beyonce (which was basically all of 2013) and if she was still writing songs like "Drunk In Love," that would be…odd. One could argue that the songs were an attempt to save her marriage, but still, putting out a very specific and…

marriage is a business arrangement and treating it as a business arrangement is just as honest as marrying for love. Tax breaks, estate rights, insurance claims, legal rights, social status and gains, and much much more. If it a "true" marriage was just about love for one another, then why bother with all the legal…
There life has always been aspirational for me as well. After I stop selling crack and get off the block, I hope to cut 8 or 9 hip hop albums, become a mogul, and marry one of the most beautiful and richest women in the world. Dreams can come true, it can happen to you...
These two only care about themselves which means I don't care about either of them. JayZ is wealthy as hell and pretending he's still street. Yeah right. Plus he has a looong history of being incredibly sexist (why Jez gives him a pass, I have no idea). Bey has just as many issues. Hustling for Pepsi? Oh yeah,…
Nailed it. If she went into sports writing, no one would be talking about it. Or they'd be talking about how cool she is.
This is going to please literally no one. If you support gay marriage, then this is making a mockery of everything that has been fought for. If you're against gay marriage, then this is making a mockery of a religious practice. I cannot even fathom what kind of stupid fuck thinks this is a good idea.
Gay marriage between gay people, sure. They want to write a sitcom about a mismatched pair of gay guys, one sloppy and silly and one a stuffy banker, they can mock that marriage for fifteen seasons.
It's not even an accurate metaphor. They're not bombing Hamas. They're killing scores of citizens to terrorize a people into submission. That's more like hitting the kids to terrorize a woman into submission. Which, just like claims that the woman was "crazy" and the abuse was really an attempt to subdue her, is…
