Jayz you hit the jackpot with this beautiful woman.

[@Crissy991]

I always liked country music. Dolly Patton my fav. Congrats Bey

[@corirodriquez2889]

Dolly Patton?????? Yeah you know ur COUNTRY MUSIC !!!!! 😂😂😂😂 If you really did you wouldn’t be giving this fake a listen.

[@martiwaterman1437]

@Crissy991 Dolly is the best. Hard to find anyone who doesn’t like Dolly, whether they listen to country music or not.

[@victorlatimer1009]

Ever heard the son Starting over again by Dolly? Guess who wrote that song? A little clue. It was written by a Bad Girl who was Hot Stuff On the radio.

[@martiwaterman1437]

[@keithbell9348]

Let's give John Schneider his props! He is the guy "who knows a little thing about country music", so he strategically did his part to shove her song forward thru his comments by stirring up the Beyhive. THANKS JOHN!! Brilliant strategy! More pop, R & B, latin, Reggae, Rock and Rap artists interested in venturing into this music genre can do no better than hiring him as their promotional manager!!

Beyonce is the strategic one. She knew she'd cause a ruckus and get all the attention. Again.

[@victorlatimer1009]

Donna Summer wrote Starting over again for Dolly Parton in 1980 & it was a number one country song. It's beautiful for a black woman to finally be able to have a number one country song with her writing and singing it. Congratulations Beyonce! Thanks you for shattering that glass ceiling. ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉

[@maryjohnson5079]

I am so proud of you Beyonce, and I LOVE 💕 your two Country songs. Music is Music and talented people can sing any type of music 🎶 they want, because at the end of the day we are all part of the HUMAN RACE FOR GOODNESS SAKE, because I like K.C. and the sunshine band. I like Michael McDonald, Teena Marie, and Black Americans did not have a problem with them doing R and B music 🎶,so John Snyder should apologize for his racist remarks about Beyonce doing Country music 🎶 ✝️🙏💕

[@janice6022]

I bet it's not country fans buying the music. It's all of her fans.

[@JM-kd1mr]

She's still cashing $$$

[@QB77777]

They are and I’ve heard they are broke from the album and concerts from the last album

[@nikkibutterfly98]

@janice6022 Exactly what I was thinking! Beyonce made it to No.1 only because her fans are buying it. Being the first Black female artist to get a No.1 in Country would mean more if it was a genuine Country Music artist. Not someone cashing in on their name & fans.

[@jfour2zero]

It’s not country fans? What does that even mean? Please explain

I am glad about this! Most people in 2024 consider themselves as global citizens. They don't harp on about "cultural appropriation" like they own a certain hair style, or a certain life style. I hope that Beyoncè can be the example that we can all sing what we like, wear what we like & be what we like, without backlash. ❤
