Maya Rudolph Gets Emotional Describing her Beyoncé Beychella Experience

[@treefiddytwoo]

you can tell when Jimmy is actual friends with his guest because he lets them talk uninterrupted & doesn’t overdo his laughing

[@Volvican]

True. I can actually watch without cringing.

[@h.peters]

I thought it was only me who noticed that.

Mya is right! I was at Coachella seeing Beyonce’s performance was easily one of the best moments of my life.

[@NSHM122]

Good Lord! Question: What does she do that is different from other singer/ dancers? Convince me, I just don't see it.

[@whatever5922]

Why? She’s just another celeb

[@antoniojohnson3925]

cellophaneboy why do white men always question the impact of what people of color especially women of color bring to society. It almost like no one can have a positive influence on society except for them. U should open your mind really.

[@robinvolpi]

@@NSHM122 You don't know because you're willfully ignorant. There's a huge difference, and this isn't jocking Beyonce. I don't personally know any of these entertainers, obviously, yet I know the difference between a Fact and a Lie. The fact is that on an entertainment/performance level, nO one can compete. Bruno Mars and a couple of others are also great entertainers and yet THEY will even tell you that Beyonce makes them wanna up their game. I only began really paying attention to her 3-5 years or so ago when she dropped her first surprise album with artistic visuals for each track. Now EVERY one's dropping "surprise" music here and there.... but she's a trendsetter and her sheit's good. The music industry even named it the Beyonce effect. On TOP of her being a fantastic vocalist which I'd never paid attention to due to her mostly dancing and occasional use of backing tracks.... just occasionally, to save her voice. When you hear her perform acopella, it is awesome. She hits tenor and Soprano, in certain sets hitting high operatic notes. So..... you don't know UNTIL you know. ;) And you don't know, apparently..

[@marcelxhopemikaelson207]

it’s because out of all musicians entertainers, performers she has worked the hardest and it’s seen in her music how authentic she is and how her music talks about feminism and empowerment, confidence , etc it’s all emotional powerful and moving and helps people realize they can be better so they thank her for helping them realize their own self worth through her music that’s what makes her remarkable and that she isn’t a basic performer that just sings and spins and backup dancers carrying them she hand sees the sowing of costumes comes onset with backup dancers to dance with them and takes care of everything herself regarding her set and more just watch her documentaries
