Earlier today, Beyonce redeemed herself at the Pepsi Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show Press Conference with a live a cappella rendition of the National Anthem.
Upon finishing the rousing rendition, Beyonce threw a little shade at all the press and said “Any Questions?”
Yet, the press didn’t waste anytime getting right into the question that everyone wanted to hear the answer to: ‘Did Beyonce sing to a pre-recorded track during the Inauguration?’ and she answered to our surprise below..
Yes. I am a perfectionist.
One thing about me is that I practice until my feet bleed. I did not have time to rehearse with the orchestra. It was a live television show. A very emotional show for me. One of my proudest moments. Due to the weather, due to the delay, due to no proper soundtrack, I did not feel comfortable taking a risk. It was about the president and the Inauguration and I wanted to make him proud so I decided to sing along to my pre-recorded track which is very common in the industry and I’m very proud of my performance.
When asked whether she would sing live or to a pre-recorded track o Sunday for the Super Bowl Beyonce replied:
I will absolutely be singing live, I am well rehearsed. This is what I was born to do. What I am born for.
She also answered a few questions about Blue Ivy and whether or not Destiny’s Child would be performing with her at the Super Bowl, and if she loves haters.
On whether Kelly Rowland and Michelle would be performing with her during the half-time show:
I don’t know. I can’t really give you any details. I’m sorry!
On why she decided to share moments with her daughter in her upcoming documentary:
I feel like my daughter has changed me and changed my life and has given me so much purpose. I feel like this movie is very necessary and it shows a human side. We are all human and I feel like some point, my job is to protect her, but I’m happy I can tell my story on my terms.
On how she and Jay-z normally spends their Football Sundays:
You would have to ask Jay-Z what he does. I’m usually on the computer, pulling references, and looking at my rehearsals. But I will say, I do go to sleep and wake up with a lot of football. I have the utmost respect for the players.
On if she loves haters
I love haters. No shame. No hate.
