Beyoncé at DEH? — Page 3

I watched the movie Life recently and he was nothing short of wonderful. Even though the plot is something we've a million times, I enjoyed the movie. That ending was completely surprising. Beyoncé.

(added that last bit so I could connect it to the thread topic)

Literally. If a Bandstand thread went into discourse of what's considered a favorite show; and another discussing a deleted thread that somehow ended up being yet another race debate are indications, anything can happen on BWW.

I think that video was cringe-worthy. I mean, Beyonce is just another person. If even fellow actors/singers are behaving like this, where can she turn to to be treated normally? I think Beyonce would feel a lot more comfortable around them if they behaved normally and treated her like a real person. You can say you respect her artistry or admire her for her accomplishments, but come on, crying? What if they have to work on the same movie/show/project in the future? Will they behave like this too?

1. I'm sure they weren't hysterically crying and "fangirling" over her and annoying her. I've seen pictures and they were talking normally and shaking hands.

2. Beyonce is Ben's hero and he's been trying to get her to come to the show for months, so of course he's very happy when she comes.

3. They're allowed to be fans of her. Yeah, sure, they're celebrities, too, but we're talking about Beyoncé here.

I doubt they acted like this in front of her. They are professionals. I mean most people will fangirl over their favorite celebrities

I'm not one to write about other people's sexuality, but I think it's important not to erase queer people 'queerness' (I'm using the term because I don't know what Ben identifies as), but Ben has definitely publicly said he's dated men. One occasion that comes to mind was last year's Tony red carpet (I think), when Tyler Mount asked him about his first break-up and he used 'he' to refer to his ex. So he doesn't hide it, and it's important we acknowledge that.

Pictures before and after it is obvious Laura was just fake crying and making a joke at the moment.

"but Ben has definitely publicly said he's dated men. One occasion that comes to mind was last year's Tony red carpet (I think), when Tyler Mount asked him about his first break-up and he used 'he' to refer to his ex. So he doesn't hide it, and it's important we acknowledge that."

Unless there is video or an article with him publicly stating that, it's really important not to say crap like that as if it were a fact. It's not.

There's no need to be so harsh, as I'm not being disrespectful to anyone, and the 'pics or it didn't happen' culture doesn't have to be stay on 24/7. Not everything has to be recorded, specially when it's done publicly, because it's not a secret. I said he's spoken PUBLICLY about it, which he has, so I'm sure more people have seen it/could confirm it. While you are right not to trust me, you could google a little, since he's spoken publicly about it; it isn't a secret, a piece of news or a rumour, it's something that's been out there for a while.

But, if you really want the video, I've found it and I hope it's good enough to prove this kind of 'crap': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDaKEymggXs&t=2m37s

Yeah, that video with that horribly obnoxious host that Lin-Manuel just wanted to slap. Thanks. Yuck. Itmeans nothing now that he's 23."

I never said he's gay, and you'd do well to stop thinking people 'grow out' of being gay (specially if someone identifies as gay at the "very young" age of 16).

And, about the hour, I've been working at night and sleeping during the day. Night jobs are great for people with insomnia.

if Ben Platt is gay it's okay everyone. people are also allowed to love celebrities. stop telling people they can't love who they want!

THANK YOU!

Straight 23 year old men, don't love Beyonce in that way. And helvizz' video link proves that...
