BEYONCE - CONFIRMED PREGNANCY?

[nippy43]

It's all over Twitter tonight that Beyonce IS pregnant... Link to E! Online: /ay8PLlzCKo

But what do you think? Will she still perform at V Festival? Is it physically possible for her to? Etc...

Discuss...

Congrats to them, but I think they should write an apology if Beyonce pulls out of V

[Bobinup]

These new rumours are no more credible than any of the others? Or that's how it seems to me.

[Matt42]

I hate to give in...

But whenever E! claims something of this magnitude, it's probably correct.. they have had scoops on many things before they've broke.

Beyonce has... indeed.. pulled out. In my opinion. Just face it guys, it's not fair but I don't think she even wanted to play V festival...

It's nearly a month after her last tour date and Jay-z's arena (possibly an arena where she planned to finish her tour), and V must of been desperate to try and book her.

She headlined glastonbury 3 months pregnant, she won't do V 6 months Pregnant.

[daniel.k]

This time the website actually Jay Z correctly so E! is alot more credible. I dont think V wanted to admit it but they are struggling to book someone to replace her, and they have given themselves two weeks to do it in. I think Beyonce will conform it soon, maybe 30th May.

Will they replace her in all seriousness or just push someone up a slot?

Kasabian around?

[Bobinup]

Jessie J?

[daniel.k]

Jessie J isnt big enough IMHO

Kasabian...hmmm they could headline as long as TDCC headline the Arena so I have someone to go watch

[Matt42]

I think Kasabian is a big possibility.

If not, it'l be florence I reckon.

Speaking as someone who doesn't want to see Beyonce anyway, I think its quite exciting the prospect of a different headliner!

[AiiShotTheDJ]

I genuinely think she is a) pregnant and pulled out. With a husband like Jay Z, and on her own merit, she does not need the money or credentials that this may bring for her. I should imagine her baby will be far more important.

Probably buy a ticket if she doesnt play. (was going to get one anyway ha)

she'll be 7/8 months preggers by then, she definitely won't play

[Bobinup]

Florence has explicitly said she's taking a year out of gigs of any kind - no tours, no festivals, no nothing. She'd have to backtrack big time - and what would she get out of it? She's get the promotion of playing a festvial, yes, but she's also associate herself with a HUGE backlash for something that is otherwise nothing to do with her.

i said Jessie J slightly tongue-in-cheek, but on the other hand if they're looking for a like-for-like replacement who's already on the bill Ms. Cornish is the best they've got.

[Matt42]

I reckon V might even cancel this year.. if thousands want to return tickets, they might have to allow refunds..

Is anyone going to go down well as a headliner replacing beyonce or will they be met with boos the whole time?

[Bobinup]

The terms and conditions, which are a legally binding agreement, explicitly state that the line-up is subject to change - ticket buyers don't have a leg to stand on if they're going to try and claim on this.

[Kris_lcfc]

Would love kasabian to replace her. Would make the festivsl worthwhile this year then, or muse

[Bobinup]

Not exactly as it turns out she's playing two.

Florence would be massive step down, however I love those Kasabian boys!

[Boris The Spider]

Personally, I'd prefer an announcement that she's cancelled with a replacement to be confirmed rather than be left in the dark about it all.

[daniel.k]

I know I have been saying alot they should replace Beyonce with someone similar, but that could draw a similar crowd which would boo whoever replaces her. Just thought about it now, if V go for some one who has near no cross over fans, they will probably cheer just because beyonce isnt there. As much as I want Bey to be there and if she isnt I dont really want a band like that, I can see why V would do it

I don't know what Beyoncé is trying to achieve by not saying anything. The longer she leaves it, the longer people get annoyed and start selling off their tickets, surely? Unless she's trying a route of letting all these rumours build up and then gaining ridiculous popularity when she doesn't have to cancel all her gigs after all, but that'd seem risky.
