| The New Pictures for The Lion King Had Us All Yelling “Beyoncé???” - The Mary Sue Posted: 03 Jul 2019 08:44 AM PDT
I'm going to go to see the new The Lion King because I'm that kid who watched it until the VHS broke, and then my mom took me to see it on Broadway and I cheered for Scar while everyone else cried. Always been a Scar stan, always will be. But with that being said, I've had my reservations on the live-action version of one of my favorite Disney classics. Mainly because it didn't really need to be done and if they are going to do this one, does that mean we're getting a live-action The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride as well? I'll gladly take that movie. With the release of the soundtrack tracklist for the movie, I have an additional set of problems. Mainly that "Shadowlands" and "Endless Night" from the musical are right there and they're not on the tracklist. How are you not going to have Beyoncé sing "Shadowlands"? It's like a perfect song for Nala and her. But that's me and my wants and hopes for this movie. The internet, it seems, has a better way to get excited about The Lion King. New promotional images released by director Jon Favreau show all our favorite characters gazing into the eyes of their human counterparts in a picture that can only be described as "Bohemian Rhapsody-esque".
It's kind of obvious that fans had a little fun on Twitter from there. Especially when it came to Beyoncé staring into the eyes of Nala.
But she wasn't the only one to get the meme treatment.
Is The Lion King going to be nearly as good as the memes surrounding it? Yes, because it is The Lion King. Everyone loves it. (image: Disney) Want more stories like this?

| Go Ahead and Run Beyoncé Her Check - Vulture Posted: 05 Jun 2019 12:00 AM PDT  Beyoncé. Photo: Raven Varona/Parkwood/PictureGroup/Shutterstock Beyoncé, who must be taking classes at the Robyn Rihanna Fenty School of Not Dropping an Album But Trying to Sell Us Stuff, just launched a mysterious new merch Twitter. @ShopBeyonce features a cryptic teaser of the word beyhive, signaling a new merch drop on June 11. Yes, Beyoncé already has a merch site fans have unloaded paychecks into, but you know this woman loves drama. The exact details of the launch are under wraps, but members of the formal Beyhive (which anyone can join) reportedly received bandannas and graphic T-shirts ahead of June 11. The singer most recently dropped a new line of merch in April celebrating Homecoming, her Netflix documentary on the 2016 Coachella performance. Shortly after, she also released a single graffiti T-shirt saying, "WHERE IS THE FWT DVD?" — a reference to the Formation World Tour DVD fans have been begging for, but are definitely never gonna get. 100 percent cotton and 100 percent petty. Now, with the suspenseful "beyhive" drop, it's clear she's in it for the theatrics. Used to the drama, fans are already transferring money from savings to checking. Beyoncé clearly does not care about bills. |

| Become Beyoncé’s assistant in a viral interactive Twitter thread - Polygon Posted: 24 Jun 2019 12:00 AM PDT  Surviving a day as Beyoncé's assistant is next to impossible in a Twitter-based Choose Your Own Adventure-style game that has galvanized both Beyoncé stans and general Twitter users alike. Twitter user @CORNYASSBITCH's thread is an extensive, whirlwind journey in which the goal is to survive one day as Beyoncé's assistant. It's not an easy path — there are numerous pitfalls that end with Beyoncé passing out due to inhaling fresh paint fumes (you get fired) to getting caught up in a pregnancy hoax (you also get fired) to being kidnapped because she snuck up to her hotel room alone (you are, predictably, extremely fired). The game's mechanic is simple: When presented with a scenario, you choose one of several possible actions presented as linked tweets in the replies. Clicking on an action takes you to a new thread, where you repeat the process. The game is essentially a series of nested Twitter threads that flesh out multiple outcomes and paths of the story; occasionally they intersect, but for the most part each path is discrete. There are only three paths that don't end with you getting fired — two of them promise a continuation to the thread, and the other concludes with you handing in your resignation, which is technically a win. However, the successful routes are difficult to suss out. Seemingly innocuous actions like suggesting that Beyoncé go swimming to kill time or buying red toilet paper to spruce up a Motel 6 room get you the ax, and fictional Beyoncé is more than happy to fire you at the drop of a hat. This isn't the first time that celebrity-centered story threads have gone viral on Twitter. In Jan. 2018, Twitter user and BTS fan @flirtaus orchestrated a massive interactive Twitter fanfiction experience titled Outcast (the original @flirtaus has since deactivated and the handle is now held by another individual). Their story, which played out live over the course of six days in a series of iMessage screenshots and audience polls, situates the members of Korean pop septet BTS in a world in which a fictional message-based game seems to be linked to a string of disappearances. While the original thread is no longer available on Twitter, the story has been preserved by multiple users on Wattpad, a fanfiction hosting site. Rather than a threaded piece of interactive fiction, Outcast relied on regular audience polls to determine the next course of action. The story quickly went viral —Billboard reports that the first night's poll topped off at around 14,000 votes, the second night's at 134,000, and the third night's at 366,000. While it might be a bit of a stretch to call the Beyoncé thread fanfiction in the same way that Outcast is, both are testament to fan cravings for interactive content that puts them into conversation with their idols. Furthermore, both put Twitter's most basic features like threads and polls to work, creating sprawling narratives that demand more than the average hot second of attention given to one-shot tweets. In the case of the Beyoncé thread, the artist's massively dedicated fanbase and general pop culture standing ensure that a solid chunk of people (including celebrities like Christine Teigen) are more than willing to try their hand. Few survive their first play through without getting fired, and it's addicting to try and stay on staff. |
