Beyonce kicked off her much anticipated ‘I Am…Tour’ last night in Edmonton, Canada.

EDMONTON – When it comes to Beyonce, Edmontonians should perhaps consider themselves very lucky.

Lucky that the “bootylicious” superstar even decided to grace an Edmonton stage again after her last turn at Rexall Place in 2007 only drew a crowd of 7,800 people, but even luckier that Beyonce would actually launch her brand new tour supporting her latest album, I Am … Sasha Fierce, in the City of Champions.

Whether it was a momentous occasion or just an opportunity to test out the show and work out the kinks in front of a “modest” audience – because, once again, only 8,000 fans turned out – will be left for those that attended to decide.


If Beyonce’s first outing on her I Am … tour was no major disappointment, it was still a somewhat muddled affair, one that didn’t really clear up where the line between Beyonce and her supposed “alter ego” Sasha Fierce is drawn.

If Beyonce is the soft-spoken side and Sasha is the brazenly hyper-confident persona, the whole concept never really spread its wings properly Thursday night at Rexall.

    get em B! i cant be mad at her. this heffa is bad. she accomplished everything she set out to do and remained respectful, Christian, family oriented, classy and original while doin so. she gets on my nerves sometimes, but she is fierce. lol.

    OK I told these writers they dont have nothing on this Girl. Even though I am sore with her I still feel like the concept is very clear on anything she does as far as her albums she is very clear with that. Sasha is sexy and fearless and Beyonce is reserved and private she’s a business woman and can’t you tell she wont be stopped until she says so. P.S. B, Gurl call me we got some thangs to talk about!

    I really couldn’t care less for beyonce. This is one tour I will skip. Same music, same wanna high pitch voice b***h, and the CD I am sasha fierece SUCKS! ESPECIALLY THE SECOND CD with the slow stuff, it sounded like she was trying to be a white girl by singing all thoes ballads. Beyonce is falling off, I rather go see KERI HILSON BABYYY!!!

    SOME B***HES DON’T HAVE NOTHING TO DO BUT HATE, BEYONCE IS THE S**T …………. NOTHING ASS HO3′S

    To me Beyonce really has it. Some people may be tired of her but i appreciate hard working individuals. She is truely a female version of a husler its not just a song. I give credit where credit is due. I like the saha fierce Cd better then the I Am, however she did her thing with the song Halo. I just dont understand how people can be so hateful towards others. Get on ya job and find success instead of hatin on the next FEMALE!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/harlemsfinest79/ harlemsfinest79

    Although I wasn’t a huge fan of the I Am… Sasha Fierce CD (I only like 4 songs) I expect a lot out of this tour. Since she is protraying two personas, I expect polar opposites. For the Beyonce songs “the ballads” I expect pure innocence from drama angel like apparel to maybe even some of those Victoria Secret Angel wings and for Sasha, straight over the top glam. Not afraid to flaunt it. Kinda like picture #2 but with even more dramatic hair. Like Sasha Fierce should resemble Whitney Houston in “The Bodyguard” when she performed in that nigt club scene “Queen of the Night”

    i really dont like her because she doesnt help anybody else, she takes the spotlight from everybody and doesnt share. destiny child is on the backburner, she dont even sing a song with them. she calabarates with males only. J-z ugly and old. i feel like she not living right for herself. she be doing too much, and she is not a diva yet and she doesnt write all her songs or for nobody else. JENNIFER HUDSON IS BETTER ANY DAY OF THE WEEK

    Wow!!!, looks exciting, she looks awesome..

    it was a work day for the miners, so they couldn’t all attend the concert

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SoulPurpose2000/ SoulPurpose2000

    B is ok. I like some of her music just like I do any other artist. I don’t like everything she puts out. I think B is successful because she is prayerful about what she does but I think as with any star eventually they burn out. Everyone has their day and eventually B will not be as popular because it will be someone else’s time to shine

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/lrhodes0972/ lrhodes0972

    It is hilarious to get on here and read some of the things said about artist…some of you all sound so idiotic…like mon teil316…there are no artist inthis industry that writes each and every last one of their songs…and as far as her doing for others, she has foundations and does tons of charity work, but the reason you don’t hear about that is as soon as you do, you will find another reason to hate…if you don’y like her, just simply say she’s not for you, but hatin is unnecessary…besides I don’t think she really cares rather u like her or not

    Alanis Morset wrote a damn good song and Beyonce did a good job performing it.

    Singing Alanis Morrisette…LOL. That was funny. I wonder if she asked Alanis if its coo to sing her sh*t.

    Consider the size of Edmonton in comparison to the bigger cities in the US like L.A., Houston, or Miami, and figure out WHY the crowd wasn’t bigger. Typical American idiotic, unresearched comments! Seriously, who writes these articles?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/drudesti/ drudesti

    Not hating but I think B is overrated. She can now have a seat. Let Keyshia Cole and the younger ones blossom now. She has enough money so she does not have to perform, please do us a favor and sit down and tote on a cigar with your monkey face husband.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Texas_Essence/ Texas_Essence

    She’s the best! Great performer and a hard worker. Haters keep on with your naysaying cause she just keeps getting better.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Texas_Essence/ Texas_Essence

    lol @ drudesti starting off her comment with “no hating”. Girl please..and you should be careful judging people’s looks.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Dimndnthruff1/ Dimndnthruff1

    Who knew the groupies would get so emotional? People can say what they want to say, and like what they wanna like. YOU stop being a hater, and just deal with it. Life goes on, so what the next person doesn’t like your Idol?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/shateace02/ shateace02

    lol i agree..starting off with a disclaimer such as “not hating” is saying look im about to hate but i dont want you to think thats what im doin. lmao Get em B, and keep struttin boo im behind you…they try to take you down but thats exactly why youre still on top. Whats a little healthy competition? I still luv ya’

    WHY are there sooo many haters in the world?? Beyonce is a talented artist!! I hear a lot of ignorant people saying she should fall back and let someone else shine; because she has enough money. What you fail to realize is that it’s not ALWAYS about the money. It’s about doing what you love. It’s enough money out there for everyone. No one has to fall back for somoneone to shine. If you’re talented and you have what it takes…then the spot light will shine on you. STOP hating people..DAMN!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/just_be_n_2me/ just_be_n_2me

    I TOTALLY agree: Texas_Essence!!! People are sooo quick to judge other people’s looks, talent etc. They need to take a long HARD look in the mirror!! LOL

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/just_be_n_2me/ just_be_n_2me

    Awwww…it’s not about getting emotional “Dimndnthruff1″. It’s about loving your sista’s and NOT HATING! Give your talented sisters their props and STOP judging. YES!!! LIFE DOES GO ON and REGARDLESS and what you say or think..Beyonce is doing the damn thing and will continue to do so UNTIL SHE decides to fall back!!! So YOU deal with it!!!! LMAO
