Beyoncé is in Chicago, and getting ready to pop out for Kamala Harris on the final night of the Democratic National Convention ... TMZ has learned.
Multiple sources in the know tell us Queen Bey will be the big surprise performer as VP Harris officially accepts the Democratic party's nomination to run for president.
As you'd expect, Beyoncé's appearance is a huge deal, not only for Harris and the Party but in Chicago as well. We're told Chicago PD is on high alert as it's involved in security for Beyoncé at the United Center arena. Beyoncé Performing at DNC's Final Night in Chicago (tmz.com)
(But, can you hear it. . . already. . . Donald is going to say that people only showed up and tuned in tonight for Bey! He will gripe about 'crowd-size.' Oh, it's coming in a tweet in five, four, three, two. . .one. . . .)
This is really a good convention and its interesting with interesting people. It's not a 'stuffy' set of events! Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly are just special in every way!
Pink is performing and it reminds me of Randy Jackson ("American Idol" judge): 'Pink, you got that "big ole voice" that can fill an arena and sing the phone book!'
Respect is shown where and when it is due! Donald get your 'war-room' to empathize with your whining. By the way, as a 'badass' you got nicked by a bullet. . . and according to you. . . bullets are meant for losers!
This convention is riveting. Each night I have watched it. Not even sure I would do so throughout. . . but have missed none of it (even if I had to play 'snippets' back on DVR).
BEYONCE performed for an hour on New Year's Eve at a party thrown by Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi's son, Hannibal, who has a long record of violence against women.
Okay. I remember something about it now. It was a personal controversial moment for a celebrity. . . and she survived the hit. . . as did a bunch of celebrities doing similar things. . .including PGA golfers who joined a Saudi golf league. I don't pretend to understand how politics should work with world-wide celebrity fame. . . and fortune-making but these individuals are 'independent' entertainers and they excel or suffer consequences based on their fan bases. . . not political party politics!
Apparently, it was not a 'consideration' to be held against 'Bey' as the song "Freedom" by Beyoncé was used in a political campaign (anyway).
Singer criticised by human rights campaigners for lucrative appearance
In November, Robbie Williams defended his decision to perform in Qatar during the World Cup. He was criticised for agreeing to sing during the tournament, due to the country’s human rights record, stance on homosexuality and treatment of migrant workers.
“Of course, I don’t condone any abuses of human rights anywhere,” he told Italian newspaper la Repubblica .
“But, that being said, if we’re not condoning human rights abuses anywhere, then it would be the shortest tour the world has ever known : I wouldn’t even be able to perform in my own kitchen.”
This is in 'furtherance' of the pass these entertainers have to be given/granted in order to make a living and maybe even change some hearts and minds - for surely, some hearts and minds will be affected by their acceptance and their physical 'visits.' In addition, throughout history black entertainers performed in venues where they had to enter through the kitchen and exit the same after their 'sets'—just to make pennies to feed themselves. Entertainers ride the 'edge' and are known for their creative dispositions/solutions.
That is the best I can do with this. At my age, I feel that I am looking in on these 'rights' controversies regarding new and/or current celebrities anyway.
But, I am not 'able' to just leave this that open-ended. When any celebrity is an elected official. . . not simply representing themselves this type of activity would come with some substantive stipulations or harsh consequences.
In America, 4739 children and teens were killed by firearms in one year. And what did Stephen Miller say? Nothing. What did the GOP say? Nothing. What did MAGA say? Nothing. You think Donald Trump getting a papercut is a national tragedy, but 13 American children getting slaughtered per day is not?! Don't ever lecture us about Pro-Life. You're pro-Trump, pro-chaos, pro-power, pro-money, pro-guns, pro-"bibles", pro-everything BUT LIFE. And we are voting your vile little party and your fat old Satan out of existence!
Vice-President Kamala Harris has accepted the DNC nomination for president. Now, this begins in earnest! Expect the conservative gloves to come off and bare-knuckles strikes! (Looks like V.P. Harris has already taken off the gloves and is striking bare-knuckles tonight!)
The differences between Harris-Walz and Trump-Vance are so stark and obvious, what kind of thinking would lead someone to want to give the power of the presidency to a vindictive, irresponsible, negative, narcissistic scoundrel?
JR giving us 'the Scoop'! Thank you! I am so looking forward to Bey, Pink, and maybe. . . any word about Taylor?
Havent heard about Taylor but if she was in Chicago it wouldnt be a secret so I would say thats a no.
Dog-gone it. Bey is going to be stellar! Taylor Swift would just blow the roof x2 off the place (even if she just came and stand there)!
It seems like the Beyonce rumor was wrong.
I feel let down. But, I will get over it.
It's Bey's (and Taylor's) right to go and come as she sees fit. 
Blame TMZ
It's all good!

Senator Mark Kelly is one accomplished man (already)! Incidentally, this is the first time I can remember hearing him give a speech.

Adam Kinzinger is the man.
Kinzinger is taking Donald down! He is doing 'this' - yes sir - he is doing this tonight! Country first!
One of the few remaining statespersons.
Trump campaign attacks Beyonce
Well, it's capitalism. And Bey ain't a politician. By the way, what is the issue/s with Gaddafi's son anyway?

You asked a question, I answered the best I could.
I am not arguing about it.
Nor did you read anything from me passing judgment on her for her decision.
I know money is very important to some folks, even more than personal integrity.

She, like others, is free to take her money from whoever she likes.
But, I am not 'able' to just leave this that open-ended. When any celebrity is an elected official. . . not simply representing themselves this type of activity would come with some substantive stipulations or harsh consequences.
That looks like facts to me
She did perform for the shithead's kid.
where is the attack?
The Republicans and Trump have made the fatal mistake of badly underestimating Kamala Harris.
Can you imagine the idiot Trump calling this woman dumb ?
Vice-President Kamala Harris has accepted the DNC nomination for president. Now, this begins in earnest! Expect the conservative gloves to come off and bare-knuckles strikes! (Looks like V.P. Harris has already taken off the gloves and is striking bare-knuckles tonight!)
The differences between Harris-Walz and Trump-Vance are so stark and obvious, what kind of thinking would lead someone to want to give the power of the presidency to a vindictive, irresponsible, negative, narcissistic scoundrel?
Thats a good question.
Trump is melting down
-
She is giving a coherent, lively, and highly motivating speech. The right's worst nightmare.
Trump supporters are typically not watching and those watching are simply shaking their heads while chanting nuh-uh.
Kamala Harris is not going to stumble in the debate with Trump, she has no fear of him. I would say the exact opposite actually.
No different than Biden/Harris supporters and ‘independents’ throwing their remote at the tv and screaming at the sky during the RNC.
I doubt many of that group even watched much of the R convention.
Compare and contrast Harris' speech with the rambling of Trump's speech. That would encourage those of us against Trump.
I know word salads. I have heard lots of word salads. Trump serves word salads. That speech Vice President Harris gave tonight was NOT A WORD SALAD!
Tomorrow MAGA will swear that it was.
No way to convince a MAGA differently!
I agree. There is no reasoning with those who are deep into confirmation bias.
Some of them live in a fantasy world, don't they?
that's some sick fantasy shit there.
Oh the irony is glaring here
I doubt many of that group even watched much of the R convention.
You’re probably right. Most of them are afraid to listen to different ideas and go straight to insults and violence when they hear one.
