"I understand it": Tina Knowles speaks about Beyoncé's behavior backstage
On Tuesday's episode of Sherri, host Sherri Shepherd was joined by philanthropist, businesswoman, and fashion designer, Celestine Beyoncé Knowles-Lawson, popularly known as Tina Knowles.
The duo spoke about Beyoncé's mute challenge, her Renaissance tour, and Tina's granddaughter, 11-year-old Blue Ivy Carter dancing on stage during the artist's performances on tour. She revealed that she was in tears during the youngster's performances while Blue Ivy's father, Jay-Z was "grinning so hard" she thought his face would hurt.
Sherri brought up the upcoming Renaissance tour movie and asked Tina what fans could expect from the film. She also asked her about what her daughter does when she disappears backstage during her concerts.
"We laughed about this recently because I was saying, 'Girl, you get really mean back there,' and I am really happy that I don't have to be back there anymore," Tina responded.
She added:
"We'd laugh because she used to do 'Flaws and All.' She would say, 'I'm a (*b***h) in the morning,' and I’ll be like, 'and the evening too!'"
However, she mentioned that she understood her daughter's point of view and said:
"But that’s the heat of the moment, because you’re trying to get your shoes on, and everybody’s waiting, and if somebody’s messing up or they lose the shoes, then you messed up the whole show, so, I understand it," she said.
She further revealed that after the show ended, Beyoncé immediately apologized for her outburst and sometimes even teared up.
The Renaissance album has been a resounding success for Beyoncé. Released last year, the album debuted at No.1 on the United States Billboard 200 chart before going on to become a certified platinum record. The Renaissance world tour recently concluded on October 1, 2023, and became the Single Ladies singer's highest-grossing tour ever.
The Renaissance world tour movie titled Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé is all set to hit theatres on December 1.
