The Beyonce Experience

So I went with Simmie last night to the Beyonce experience- haha! It was quite the birthday night! We got to sit in the Air Canada lounge so we had an unobstructed view of the stage. Robin Thicke came on and was SOOO bad. First off, he was wearing white sneakers with an all black outfit. I thought that look had went away with Jerry Seinfeld. Then, he sang like Jordan Knight circa 1988- and I am no longer a 10 year old girl thinking that it is sexxay....he is just awful. Then to top it off he did say that his dad was Canadian and that he had been coming up here twice a year his whole life- but there was no reference to Kirkland Lake- what is that all about??! The only reason I paid attention to his set was to hear the KL shout out!!

Then came Beyonce. I have to say- when she first came out she had a stunning silhouette. And the first section was fun- she broke down her whole show into sections with similar sounding music- it started with the more "rock" music like Crazy in Love, then it was the belly dancing music section with Baby boy and the Shakira song, then the Jazz section with a bunch of horrid songs that I don't know and never want to hear again, then the Destiny's Child section- which was by far the best part of the show.

Other noteable points- Beyonce desperately needs a new stylist. Her outfits were horrid and so unflattering on her- they made her look huge! And she had these odd male dancers who were pretty much strippers...it was odd.

After the Destiny's child section we left...I mean I don't know the rest of her stuff very well and really don't need to hear "to the left to the left"

All and all- very fun times
