The divas are in distress after their recent performances were less than spectacular!
The Huffington Post is reporting that Beyoncé showed up 20-minutes late for The V Festival on Saturday night in England. Rocking her new razor cut bob, Beyoncé was met with boos and lots of angry fans that stood patiently in the rain and wind for their superstar to close out the night.
Although, Bey apologized and even tried cheering up the fans, some were not having it and even tweeted their disappointment. “Boo-yonce! Crowds ain’t happy she is late at V Festival! 20mins in the rain and counting… ”
In addition to Bey’s tardiness, the sound was also an issue. According to one attendee, “The sound was so terrible people were just walking away halfway through her set.” cause many to leave the show altogether.
There were also a number of disgruntled fans sitting at home who were promised that they would be able to see clips of show on Channel 4. However, the station could not get clearance from Bey’s camp because she allegedly refused to give them broadcasting rights. WOW! What a bummer.
Despite all the technicalities, King Bey reportedly put it down during her 90-minute set and made the most of the situation.
Now on to Miss Brandy…
Reportedly, the singer and actress was scheduled to perform at a 90,000 seat arena as part of the Nelson Mandela Sport & Culture Day. Well, someone must have forgotten to invite her fans because allegedly only 40 people showed up for the concert.
According to HollywoodTake.com, 40 people stuck around for the “two song show” before Brandy left the stage.
“It was late. People didn’t know there was a concert after the games,” @kabamo tweeted. “No one knew Brandy was around. Maybe a 40 people audience.”
Although it’s being reported that concert promoters didn’t do their job in advertising her appearance, the low attendance should not be seen as a reflection on her popularity.
Brandy is currently starring on one of BET’s top rated show, The Game and most recently appeared in Tyler Perry’s Temptation. Her album Two Eleven also debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and her song “Put It Down” featuring Chris Brown, became her first top ten entry in over a decade.
