#ThrowbackThursday - Ameriie At The 'Destiny Fulfilled & Lovin It Tour'

Ameriie Circa 2005

WOW, I can't believe Ameriie was the first celebrity i've got to see up close and personal and even took a picture. The Destiny's Child 'Destiny Fulfilled & Lovin' It Tour'[Madison Square Garden/NYC] was my first concert ever and to see such great opening acts such as Tyra B., Ameriie and Mario was an unforgettable moment I will cherish forever. 

This was when Ameriie was promoting her sophomore LP 'Touch' and I was surprised when I saw she was opening, I had gotten the album and knew the words to every song she performed. I love the artist Ameriie has become since that day and yet she still remains underrated. Ameriie will be back on top again ... sooner than you think! 

Haha, I remember my best friend LaTisha and I sneaking from our terrible seats to creep and take a picture of Ameriie. Though she tried hard to disguise herself, we spotted Ameriie's petite frame amongst hundreds of Destiny's Child fans. This was a perfect picture, just wish I would have gotten to touch and hug Ameriie in a picture.

Maybe One Day, Maybe One Day...

Beyoncé Performs "Bow Down" For The First Time [Video]

Beyoncé is surprising the #BeyHive left and right when it comes to her #TheMrsCarterShow World Tour. In the recent past months since she started touring in May, Beyoncé has took it upon herself to perform new material of songs that has leaked since the beginning of the year. The songs Beyoncé peformed at some venues are "Grown Woman", "Standing On The Sun" and #KingBey's most controversial song "Bow Down/I Been On". 

Well this past Monday, Beyoncé took the stage of her hometown Houston, Texas to perform a bit of the song before leading into the song "DIVA". If Beyoncé wasn't as ratchet enough when taking that photo of her in her Houston's snapback and gold grillz then you'd see her get nitty gritty ratchet as she performed "Bow Down". 

Oh', Beyoncé makes it very clear in the intro of the video that she's addressing the HATERS who has ever talked smacked about her such as whether her hair is real or not, always wearing leotards, being apart of the illuminati, turning down Kelly & Michelle's mice at the SuperBowl and most talked about pregnancy rumors to BOW DOWN!

NOPE! This Isn't The Live Performance Of "Bow Down"!!! Check Out The Performance After The Jump...

1/3 of Destiny's Child Gospel extraordinare Michelle Williams served as a special guest speaker at this weekend's past Essence Festival 2013 down in New Orleans. Michelle was one of the many guest speakers during Essence's Gospel Tribute at the Convention Center, honoring many big talented Gospel artists such as Donnie McClurkin and Tramaine Hawkins. 

During Michelle's honoring the soulful beauty decided to sing a preaching sermon to the audience, which made body hairs rise and made you feel like a whole new Christian again. This is a side of Michelle, I've never seen, though I do heavenly enjoy listening to her gospel albums, but this is the outgoing, freely Michelle Williams I LOVE!

Keyshia Cole Receives #BeyHive Backlash...

*Prays* Please GOD Don't Let The #BeyHive Start Throwing Beyoncé CDs At Keyshia Cole...

So if you weren't on Twitter or the blogosphere yesterday, then you had miss the total backlash Keyshia Cole received from the #BeyHive (Beyoncé fans). Keyshia Cole has been in the media waves as becoming a bit vocal about certain artists such as her too vocally rude opinion on former Destiny's Child member Michelle Williams last month during and right after she performed alongside Kelly and Beyoncé for the Super Bowl Halftime Performance. Fans have already been coming for Keyshia's throat and they came HARD!!! 

This time around Keyshia is back again getting attacked all over the world when she had something to say about Beyoncé's newest track "Bow Down/ I Been On": 

Along with that tweet came the following:

Keyshia has got to be mad at somebody though?! Maybe it's her struggling career, look I don't know. What I do know is, I don't think Keyshia has learned her lesson the first time around when she got on Michelle William's case. But as always Keyshia Cole is a firecracker and will not shut down for ANYBODY! After a few Meme attacks from fans, I highly suggest Keyshia Cole STOP NOW! the #BeyHive fans are crucial and territorial when it comes to their #KINGBEY. The fans sent Keyshia Cole the following messages: 

Beyonce Is GONE WITH THE WIND FABULOUS Hunny!

Okay so if you watched a few weeks ago episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, then you know where i'm getting at with this. 1993 Ms.USA Kenya Moore def is showing her ASS this season from stating how FABULOUS she is and how people mistake her for BEYONCE (0_o) RIGHT!

But who would have known that our KING BEY would even take notice in such reality TV shows? Clearly she's watching while we all are watching at the same time. After Beyonce's SuperBowl Halftime Show, she and fellow members of Destiny's Child Kelly and Michelle, were spotted leaving the stadium being quickly being asked by an interviewer how they felt after their performance and well, Beyonce had the following to say...

DID YOU GET YOUR LIFE TOO?! 

HELLO!

In case you missed last night's jaw dropping Ravens vs. 49ners Super Bowl XLVII game, you might have to catch that on DVD; BUT here's one play performance you can catch here! 

Beyonce performed during Halftime and left fans even the haters wanting more. The ICON dubbed female Michael Jackson took center stage as she gave a performance of a lifetime (one that will go down in the history of Halftime Performances). Tweets skyrocketed to about 268 million as Beyonce took the stage to leave people wondering if they were at a Beyonce Concert or the Super Bowl. 

Of course, Beyonce couldn't perform by herself, she invited fellow Destiny's Child members Kelly and Michelle on stage as they performed their hits like "Bootylicious" and "Independent Women". The greatest surprise of all was having all three members perform one of Beyonce's dance anthems "Single Ladies", the girls looked so gorgeous on stage and took the choreography to the ultimate extreme intricacy. 

If You Don't BEY-LIEVE ME, Then You Can UH' Read Jay-Z's Tweet:

Lights out!!! Any questions??
