I love how Beyoncé is genuinely happy in this interview! You can tell she really likes Allison

[@NickyM_0]

Exactly! I have never seen her like that.

[@iamaliveyoucantstopnow]

I have never seen Beyonce so warm and kind in an interview. Go Alison!!

[@sugarconecandy]

❤

[@christinec.7917]

That's Alison. She has that charisma

[@XaraK1]

I ALWAYS tell people Beyonce has a fun and goofy personality because we used to see it when she was in DC. Wendy Williams said she speaks like she didn't finish high school and people said she was boring and she's punished us by staying home 😂. I used to LOVE her personality

[@oldtimesong]

This lady knows how to interview a star!!!! What a wonderful duo. I could see them talk for hours.

[@jahjah1769]

This was brilliant! Whoever hired this woman is brilliant as well~ If I were famous, I would love for this woman to interview me. It gave Beyonce a chance to show her personality and be carefree/silly.

[@Dilydaydream1]

You got to check out her interviewing harrison ford for bladerunner and marrying the rock during an interview

[@krazykaye8843]

Beyonce was so warm and sweet in this interview, it's good to see her seem to really being enjoying herself here. I watched the entire thing with a smile on my face.

[@Fueunachimba]

Yeah, we haven’t had that in a long time. It’s way more fun seeing Beyoncè having fun and laughing than it is to see her quiet and not talking the way we’ve seen her for years

[@myopinionismine999]

This is the most talkative, relaxed and relatable that I've ever seen Beyonce in public.

[@mlh1367]

Yall love throwing that “relatable” word around. It’s like yall just recently learned the word and can’t stop using it

[@myopinionismine999]

@@mlh1367 I didn't know it was a limit on the # of times a word could be personally used. So, please don't use "Y'all" again because I feel the same about your personally chosen over used word as you do about my "relatable".

[@sydandtheothers]

This brought a genuine smile to my face. Alison is an amazing interviewer.

[@LerPax]

15 years ago? That's insane.

[@jeanettetaylor4953]

You could clearly see Beyonce was so at ease in this interview and Alison is the greatest part of that

[@nonid5627]

I feel like B went on to use that choreo. Edit: she did for her Coachella concert during Say My Name with Kelly and Michelle 🌈

[@brynneholt1990]

I’ve never seen this in my life. Allison is wonderful and really brought out the personality i didn’t really know Beyonce had. I need to watch more of Allison.

[@MissDetox]

Fantastic interview 😂 Well Done Alison, this why we love you on This Morning!

[@JordanMarsh1]

Beyoncé was getting her life at the end 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@scarletred8888]

What a natural talent Alison has, not intimidated and over awed by super famous people. she's so warm and funny it creates a great atmosphere and the best interviews, well done Alison !

[@mwelb5251]

Alison Hammond is a legend. She makes everyone smile and she has such a beautiful aura

[@pabloferreira1451]

Wow, i would love to see beyonce taking interviews again. She has such an incredible charm.

[@karinealexander3181]

Alison is so great at celebrity interviews she always knocks it out the ball park 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@rnw2739]

I think you mean she's really good at eating.

[@st3458]

Honestly if Allison was the only likenonly person to get to interview Beyoncé today beyonce might actually do interviews again but only with this women

[@Annie-ZA]

TWO GORGEOUS, Down-to-Earth and funny LADIES!👍💪💃💃👏😍🥰😘😘

[@moo6672]

best Beyonce interview I've seen - so relaxed!

[@shanec9840]

I have yet to see Beyonce this way again in any interview post this one.

[@Noneofyourbizniz1]

Cuz she learned how cruel the media is and how they can twist her words. I don’t blame her for staying private and not giving interviews. I mean, she’s successful. She doesn’t even respond to people on social media. She has to continue to protect her peace.

[@akiraqil9902]

She is always so fun in interviews. But media could turn. 5 minutes interview to 2weeks long mockery and speculation. She was criticised for her voice being too country, her demeanor, her body. But she never cared. She really stopped doing interviews when media started to talk about her child and her family. There was a lot of mean articles after she had a miscarriage blaming her for it. One day she wakes up and realize she doesn’t have to do all this. She could communicate with her fans thru her music, and honestly, good for her.

[@KingLauradin-lq3io]

@@Noneofyourbizniz1Beyoncé is very hidden now

[@COSMICCFREQUENCY144]

Go look at her Tyra interviews

[@AA-qb7ni]

She may be BEYONCE, but she's actually so down to earth and kind. Alison just makes everyone laugh 🤣🤣

[@rantsandfaves]

Who doesn't love Alison? ❤

[@littlejoe9381]

I saw this a few years ago and it’s my favorite interview of Mrs. Carter. The interviewer is excellent. 🙂

[@bluebear9228]

I love how she clearly described who Sasha was n ppl wanna act dense

[@KingLauradin-lq3io]

👀

[@sparkle3000]

Wow... who is this Woman Alison? I've never seen Beyoncé so unguarded. Very nice to see.

[@julielaidlee]

She’s the same one who did the iconic ryan gosling Harrison ford interview

[@kreativelysi2968]

This how interviews should be FUN

[@taylo7]

Aww I miss her doing interviews but I totally understand why she doesnt.

[@beewa8840]

Love this interview. What a lot of fun. 😊

[@hanselmansell7555]

Yup, absolutely brilliant 😍

[@marilynchambers64]

Ok so let me just say this. Im from Houston Texas...by way of Arizona, and I've seen just about every interview with this prescious jewel. And I can honestly say that I've never seen Beyonce so happy and relaxed, and content like this...not even the wolf in Grandma's clothing from "Red Riding Hood"(Oprah) managed to carry any of her interviews with Beyonce in the past like this...This young lady is a natural...as well as a great interviewer.

[@sxm76]

This was the most likeable I have ever seen Beyonce. Maybe I should say most comfortable. I wish we could have seen this side of her more often.

[@bubblefun4564]

Best interview ever,weldone Alison love how fun you are and ur interviews really showcase that 💕💕💕

[@blackforest825]

Beyonce is adorable. Loving Cowboy Carter, so I wanted to see what she's like as a person (late-comer). And boy is she cute!

[@lindatweetytaylor]

Alison make every interview so funny

[@spicyhot2552]

This is such a good & fun interview ..Beyonce looks so happy & Beyonce is rockin her REAL hair 😊

[@leabeauty837]

That’s not her real hair lol

[@mlh1367]

@@leabeauty837yes. It is. Get over it. Just bc her hair isn’t naturally short like yours doesn’t mean it’s not her real hair. She wears her real hair very often actually but you black women always wanna claim it’s a wig or weave bc yall don’t believe black women can have long hair like that. When there’s so much proof that’s her real hair

[@leabeauty837]

@@mlh1367 My hair isn’t short. Nothing to get over. You seem to be the one very hurt & defensive over a stranger.. very very odd. 🤡

[@PorshiaVonne]

Bey is so adorable 🥰

[@vanessay4]

Aww I miss when Beyoncé enjoyed interviews because they were fun! When Allison handed her to plastic bag I screamed 😂😂❤❤ the interviews for so negative and rude Bey only does them for magazines now 😢

[@marcotrosi]

I demand a Queen B song with these chest drums, I can see how powerful this can look live on stage when doing that with multiple dancers

[@Pikachu-qr4yb]

It’s basically Yonce beat 😂

[@lasonyabass4424]

Beyoncé is really wearing that smile

[@Night-Shade.]

Uploaded 1 day ago. I had to see this cuz I'm confident that Beyonce doesn't do interviews anymore, so I had to check that that's a re-upload.

[@Elena-gt3xu]

I wanna be like Allison when I grow up. So much charisma!

[@Scandalous_behavior]

This interview was so fun!

[@alifc1082]

Don't know who you are, but congratulations! This was genuinely fun, the most natural Beyoncé that I've seen... out of the stage

[@GabrielHamsi]

Brilliant

[@akiraqil9902]

It‘s crazy to think that once upon a time she HAD to do interviews and promote stuff. Now all she needs is to post an instagram tease to give me nosebleed.

[@gemma1874]

I would love Alison Hammond to interview me

[@ImaginationMw]

Why did she stop doing interviews? I love hearing her talking voice

[@mlh1367]

Because media is cruel and she’s been getting heavily criticized and made fun of for decades. Ppl criticize everything she does. Called her illiterate, made fun of her accent, made fun of her children, made fun of her, d*ath threats.

[@thethirdcrouch]

i didn't know this was alison!

[@lilymoon9428]

Love Beyonce. She's probably the most beautiful black lady in the world. I love her personality and she's not afraid to rock those fantastic natural curves she has.

Back when Beyonce was excited, motivated, enthusiastic, doing interviews and less pressure. 😏

[@HibaraBonde]

She paid her dues

[@eternityriley1833]

She's still all those things, she just doesn't do interviews. Cause I don't think she'd spend 5 years in secret working on this 3-act project if she wasn't.
