<p>This is a really important time for America. This is when we decide, as a country, what the past tense of lip-sync should be. Lip-sanc? Lip-synced? Lip-sang? Hyphen or no hyphen? These are the pressing issues we need to address, America, because how else will we talk about what we already knew, which is that Beyoncé did not sing live during the inauguration, and that also--in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (as portrayed by Keenan Thompson on <em>Saturday Night Live</em>)--"I care why? Hashtag: Jay-Z is a lucky man."<br />

<p>In an awesome display of "Eff the haters" today, Beyoncé took the podium during a press conference for the Super Bowl and sang an a capella rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner,"after which she announced that yes, she went with a prerecorded track during President Obama's inauguration.</p>
<p>"I'm a perfectionist," Beyoncé said, explaining that weather conditions and her general throat feelings that day made her not "comfortable taking a risk."</p>
<p>But for anyone thinking that the diva will be hiding her tail between her legs during Super Bowl halftime this Sunday, Beyoncé had only one answer: she'll "absolutely be singing live."</p>

		<title>Queen of the BeyHive: Beyonce Launches Blog</title>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://nyoobserver.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/picture-19.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-285420" alt="Picture 19" src="http://nyoobserver.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/picture-19.png?w=300" width="300" height="187" /></a>Today, Beyonce launched her lifestyle blog, <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/en/login">The BeyHive Blog</a>, adding to the superstar's tech takeover, with her eponymous <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/">website</a>, her sleek <a href="http://observer.com/2012/04/beyonce-has-a-tumblr-now/">Tumblr</a> and her sometimes politically loose-mouthed <a href="http://betabeat.com/2012/11/we-are-already-in-love-with-beyonces-instagram-even-though-she-deleted-mitches/">Instagram</a>.</p>
<p>Fresh off her scintillatingly sung, er, reportedly <a href="http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/world/americas/article3664997.ece">lipsynched</a>, rendition of the Star Spangled Banner during Monday's Presidential Inauguration, her Sasha-Fierce-ified <a href="http://www.gq.com/women/photos/201301/beyonce-cover-story-photos-gq-february-2013#slide=1">GQ</a> February cover and her upcoming performance at the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show, the Second Lady took a digital breath to share something special with her fans: a weekly digital glimpse into the mind of Bey.</p>
<p>In a letter on her <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/news/introducing-the-beyhive-blog">website</a> today, Beyonce wrote:</p>
<p>"The BeyHive Blog is my way of showing all the inspiring things I come across every single day. This is through my eyes." She also writes that she'll be featuring fan art on the blog:</p>
<p>"So many of you are making videos, painting—I want to show the world what you do and how much I appreciate you."</p>
<p>Inside her perfectly-tressed noggin this week? A Rebecca Solnit tome, Oscar-buzzed films <i>Argo</i> and <i>Beasts of the Southern Wild</i>, Christopher Marley beetle-mosaic art, a psychedelic pop duo, Oliver Clegg paintings ...</p>
<p>Oh, and shoes.</p>
<p>The blog requires setting up a free account, upon which fans can fully access the Bey-spiration: her picks for inspiring people, streetstyle snaps and maybe, just maybe that macaroni-bedazzled-portrait you've always wanted to send her.</p>
<p>Bey's blog arrives post-Goop (by a <a href="http://goop.com/">certain blond pal</a> fond of naming her kids after biblical tropes) and also features the same glossy, hyper-curated style of a certain lifestyle <a href="http://observer.com/2011/04/whos-writing-jayzs-lifestyle-site/">website</a> by a Mr. Beyonce Knowles (a.k.a. Jay-Z).</p>
<p>Not that we would expect anything less from the multifaceted Bey, the only downside is the weekly release date.</p>
<p>Whatevs. We'll be waiting with Bey-ted breath.</p>
