3 years ago, I was utterly unable to speak in public. I took betablockers to speak at my own father’s funeral. And on Monday I did this. Love me, loathe me...whatever. But human to human, please try & recognise how urgent I believe this is by the sheer fucking terror in my voice

Thoughtful of Beyoncé to do this in April so it won’t be so cold when she snatches us bald.
I’m excited by the Beyoncé doc because I’m really interested in the work ethic of the folks on stage. Notes were on key, all the ladies were moving in Formation, 150% given at every performance. How long does it take to get THAT level of perfection? @netflix @strongblacklead
Hey @Netflix_CA, will #BeyonceHomecoming be available next week? How does one log in if we have US accounts?
