Beyonce

[anoldhippie@60]

Hi, How many of you lovely folk are looking forward to seeing Beyonce?. I for one will be the other end of the festival. (If I get a ticket that is.)

Is she playing, and is she a sexist?

What's wrong with being Sexy?

[mr flow]

Neil, any idea where this rumour has come from?

[Mackem]

I'd love it if Beyonce appeared. I saw two of her O2 performances this year - she has incredible stage presence and is one of the top 3 or 4 female artists in the world at the moment. Like her husband though, she'd want top billing. Didn't Michael say they were the top three bands in the world?

from a suggestion that she might well be playing. Can't really say much more, sorry.

there are far worse potential headliners, she'd put on a good show I reckon. Can't say I'd be too fussed but if theres nothing else I fancy I'll watch her

[Festival Liam]

If Destiny's Child are announced it would be hillarious.

[Vieuphoria]

would she have to headline?

I could see her possibly accepting a slot under someone big like U2. She was obviously there for Mr. Zeds performance and he is still raving about the festival, saying in this months Q...

"You know I still think of that night as unbelievable. Un-Believable"

She would probably jump at the chance to play.

[Bradders]

I really hope she doesn't headline. Third from top is fine though, that should be the 'popstar' slot. High profile but leave the headlining to more original bands.

[rachbon]

i don't think she should headline!

for the token pop act, i'd prefer lady gaga or rihanna.

[Vieuphoria]

If we are doing token pop acts can we please bring back Scissor Sisters

[themuel]

I'm not huge on beyonce but there is 100% no way she could play and not headline. She is arguably the biggest female solo artist on the planet. Only contenders are Madonna by default and Gaga, but I don't think she is quite there yet.

aye i didn't mean headlining for lada gaga. maybe just high up on the pyramid.

i'm not sure beyonce would have the same appeal as someone like kylie or madonna in a headline slot..

I would definately avoid her, but I'm sure she would be popular.

[paulomas]

i'd definitely watch her. i think it'd be another risky jay z type booking that would pay off in the end because she'd actually be really great and she'd impress and change alot of peoples opinions on her that think she's just another standard popstar when really, she isn't, she's incredibly talented
