Viewers of the Democratic National Convention were absolutely livid on Thursday after an alleged performance by music superstar Beyonce never materialized, turning out to be a total hoax, despite a number of news reports stating that the Grammy-winner was going to be doing a song live at the event. One fan was ticked off and disappointed that they accused the Democratic Party and the media of being, and I quote, “f****** liars” who are just trying “to get people to watch.”
You know, this individual might actually have a point. It really could have been a tactic to draw in viewership. Nobody I know is even watching the DNC, and that includes Democrats. Allow me to provide you with a little personal example. Up until recently, my elderly father has been a Democrat. He’s still a registered Democrat, though in the past, he voted for Ronald Reagan. He watched the Republican National Convention this year and has skipped the DNC. Even Democrats are sick of the Democratic Party and all the garbage they push.
Here’s more from Breitbart:
“Beyoncé Performing at DNC’s Final Night!!!” read a headline from TMZ, which reported that multiple sources with knowledge of the matter told the outlet that the “Beautiful Liar” singer would be “big surprise performer” as Vice President Kamala Harris officially accepts the Democrat Party nomination.
Other news outlets followed suit, reporting of Beyoncé’s imminent DNC performance, with Huff Post telling viewers to look out for the “Bey Watch.”

To quote the great Beyonce: We gotta lay our cards down, down, down … we got this one wrong.

“Hearing lots of ‘But where is Beyoncé ?!’ leaving the DNC,” conservative blogger and author Katie Pavlich posted on X.
Hearing lots of “But where is Beyoncé?!” leaving the DNC

“There’s another crowd protesting and chanting ‘where is Beyonce,’” another X user commented.
“After watching the #DNC2024 #DNCConvention Thursday, and hearing Kamala Harris speak, my thoughts are… Where was Beyoncé?” another whined. “Democrats said Beyoncé and/or Taylor Swift would be at the #DNC, disappointing conclusion after being teased with promises of quality entertainment. #Fail.”
“Not @Beyonce leaking that lie that she would be at the convention to make sure yall tuned in to one of the most important nights of the #DNC2024! Ha! Touché Queen… touché,” another theorized.
“Boy, that was fast. They went from joy to the world to lying about Beyoncé. But then again, lying is what they do,” another remarked.
“I WANNA FIGHT WHOEVER STARTED THAT BEYONCE RUMOR,” another exclaimed, going on to add, “Abolish TMZ.”
“You are sick & costed me everything. After you said Beyonce would be performing, I trusted you & placed my bets. I put almost $575k on it & lost my life savings. My wife is screaming & my kids are crying. I’m done TMZ. You ended me. I’ll lose my home & family. I have nothing but contempt for you,” another shouted to the digital rooftops.
“F****** liars,” yet another angry soul commented. “All over the news today they said there is going to be a special guest, Probably Beyonce or Taylor Swift….. They lied to get people to watch…. Just proves they lie about everything… scumbags.”
What this really says is that nobody wanted to hear Kamala Harris deliver her acceptance speech so they had to lie about a major superstar performance to ensure there were people still in the audience when the vice president took the stage.
Sad.
