    Beyoncé Taught Me...

    A month or so Beyoncé dropped the news that she was
    expecting ........TWINS! It seemed the world was stunned as anything Beyoncé does seems to be a world phenomenon. Beyoncé  is a trendsetter so although women have been having babies and twins for centuries, I now expect a surge in the births of multiples and several copycat maternity shoots.  That's just how it goes.  I'm used to it & I'm prepared for it.

    Now, what I wasn't prepared for was the backlash Beyoncé received from her maternity photoshoot. People made fun of the photoshoot's artistic direction and were unimpressed.
    They didn't hold back their thoughts, AT ALL....
    Yikes, tell us how you really feel.
    After seeing people's responses my thought was geez, doesn't matter what she does, there will always be something.

    I remember when she announced her first pregnancy after her performance at the Super Bowl. Of course the audience loved it, but not too soon after,  the rumor mill was relentless in saying that she was not physically pregnant...and so on and so on.

     

    There were clips on youTube showing her stomach collapsing when she sat down for an interview. 

     

    Then there were the conspiracy theories..... she got a surrogate and so much more.

    Now, she's bare belly and sharing more of this twin pregnancy experience and IT STILL ISN'T ENOUGH.

     

     

    Beyoncé taught me that you can go out of your way to try and convince people of your truth....and it won't even matter.

     

    People are going to believe and

    run with what they want to to believe. PERIOD.

     

    Your truth is yours and no one else's so....

     

    DON'T

     

    WASTE

     

    YOUR ENERGY

     

    TRYING

     

    TO CONVINCE

     

    PEOPLE

     

    OTHERWISE! 

     

    Thanks Beyoncé.

      I didn't really like the photo shoot either but I love twins so I'm happy for her but I agree with you, don't look for others for approval because they will never be satisfied. Who really cares what we think she is laughing all the way to the bank .

      Yup. My truth is for me and for me early. I wasn't too wrapped up into the news but I think carrying multiples is a blessing and wish her the best of luck.

      I doubt the rate of twins will double because of Beyonce to be honest. People I think were so critcal with Blue because she was so private and the conspiracy of if she even care her is making her work double time to prove she is carrying not 1 but 2 babies. To me Beyonce shouldnt have to prove anything but if it is to shut people up I guess she said she is going all out this time!

      I agree that people will make their conclusions no matter how well you do. It's best to live life like no one is watching

      Great point and so true. Everyone is always looking and speculating. Let Beyonce live!

      Great article I agree some people get caught up in celebrities lives and forget that their still people like everyone else. Thus, that don't care about what they say about them positive or negative.

      Nice post! I really believe that we give far too much energy to celebrities and what's going on in their lives. Beyonce and Jay Z are megastars, and I'm sure they're so overjoyed by this blessing that they haven't heard or seen a word from the Negative Ned and Negative Nancys. :D

      The best revenge is being happy. Definitely no need to waste energy convincing people who already made up their minds. I also have a personal philosophy to not waste my energy on people who's opinion doesn't matter to me in the long run anyway.

      On point!! Don't waste your energy if you're walking in your truth. You will never be able to please everyone.
