Beyonce to Headline Coachella with Twins?
"We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. - The Carters" @beyonce on instagram
We've seen it before, Beyonce surprising us with pregnancies (2011 MTV Music Awards) and albums (2013 self-titled album). Yet another surprise - twins!
I'm sure we're all just as excited as I am, but one thing that came to my mind was that Beyonce is the main artist headlining Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2017. Um... She'll be in her third trimester by April.
According to TMZ, sources say some AEG Live (company hosting Coachella) producers were in the dark about Beyonce's pregnancy. While she has no intentions of cancelling (yet), some of the executives at AEG Live were shocked to hear about Beyonce's buns in the oven.
If Beyonce cancels, what will this do to ticket sales? General admission passes for Coachella are priced at $399, while VIP passes go for up to $899. After all, she is the main performer in the second day of the festival.
Beyonce revealed being pregnant with Blue Ivy while performing at the MTV Music Awards in 2011. On national television. Is this situation really that problematic? I mean, she's done it before, why can't she do it again?
Though some are concerned, some are also optimistic. The show must go on.
