He came, he saw and he conquered. The success of Beyoncé in Barcelona cannot be described in any other way, the only concert of her in Spain of her Renaissance tour of her, which enchanted no less than 53,000 people.
The Olympic Stadium was filled with flying horses, giant robots, XXL screens and a diva who shone with her own light for more than three hours for her beehive. Some fans who sang, danced, shouted and, of course, waited for her at the concert exit. Some of them were also lucky enough to see her just a few centimeters from her, receiving at least one unexpected souvenir from the American singer herself: one of her official tour towels.
As if she were Sara Montiel in La Violetera, the singer began to hand out towels among her fans, who were waiting for her, hoping to take a picture with her. A Beyoncé who, by the way, looked spectacular despite being covered by a hood. No one would have said that she had just offered a massive concert for more than three hours singing and dancing to more than thirty of her greatest hits.
A detail that her fans could not help but applaud on social networks, who could not believe that the unattainable Beyoncé seen in the media and on stage was there, at her fingertips, distributing towels like the one who distributes pamphlets to the exit from a subway station.
Who was also nearby was Jay-Z, the singer’s husband, who passed behind his wife while she was ingratiating herself with her followers, as if nothing had happened. A behavior that has surprised many of those present, given that the two artists are two of the people with the highest purchasing power in the world.
This is unusual behavior for the Houston-based artist, who is normally quite unapproachable by her fans. The artist rarely interacts with her fans after concerts, and she’s usually quite aloof from social media, save for the occasional promotional photo or video. Some photos always taken by professionals -you just have to remember the controversy that took place after his 2015 tour, with the censorship that was experienced due to the “unsightly” photos that circulated on the networks, taken by his followers, in which they did not I was totally favored.
In addition, there are very few interviews that he gives, always to magazines and never live on television. The reason, the search for absolute privacy. “I’m grateful to have the choice of what I want to share. A lot of people get lost in this industry. In this business, a lot of your life doesn’t belong to you unless you fight for it, and I’ve fought to protect my health and my privacy, because my quality of life depends on it,” he said in one of his last interviews in Harper’s Bazaar magazine.
“Those who do not know me or have never known me will interpret it as meaning that I am closed. Believe me, if you do not see certain things it is because I do not want you to see them, not because they do not exist,” he declared.
