🏆 VMAs 2025 – Artist of the Year Push
The Hive’s mission is clear: Beyoncé is up for Artist of the Year, and a win would make her the most awarded artist in VMA history, breaking her tie with Taylor Swift. We’re rallying every listener to vote daily at vote.mtv.com (10 votes per category) and flood @VMAs Instagram posts with #VoteBeyoncé comments. Let’s make history—again.
📅 This Week in Bey History – August 2, 2009
We revisit the opening night of Beyoncé’s “I Am… Yours” Las Vegas residency—an intimate, acoustic, all-female band performance that remains a fan favorite and later became a live album/DVD. Proof that Queen Bey owns any stage, from stadiums to small theatres.
🔥 Bey Adjacent & Bey Mentioned
From Halle Bailey updates to Ernest Owens holding his own against Piers Morgan, we break down the latest mentions and side conversations swirling around the Queen.
🎤 Quick Clapbacks – Levi’s Commercial Criticism
We’re addressing the “cultural appropriation” and “artificial” comments from Piers Morgan and Megyn Kelly with sharp Hive logic—because Marilyn Monroe isn’t a culture, double standards are tired, and all publicity is still good publicity.
