Sunday night, two minutes into the second half of Superbowl XLVII, the Superdome in New Orleans was plunged into darkness for 34 minutes after an electrical overload [click here if you missed that].
Now fans are wondering if the outage stopped the momentum of the game affecting the outcome, while an NFL commentator lays the blame at Beyonce's feet...
Boomer Esiason has gone on record claiming Beyonce blew the circuit twice during rehearsals last week.
On his radio show “Boomer & Carton” Boomer explained,
"...about five or six minutes prior to I guess the breaker going, where our radio booth was up on the seventh floor, we were almost at the ceiling of the dome, and Kevin says to me, ‘Man, do you hear that buzzing?’ And I took my headset off and there was this like electrical buzz sound coming from the ceiling. This was after halftime, it was after Beyonce. “And by the way, Beyonce blew the electric in the Superdome twice, I’m told, during her rehearsals during the week.”

STOP
Lights out haters!
Only 95 million watched halftime show and 182 million watched the game!! That means people turned the channel on bey! Even with all the hype she still couldnt match Madonna or Prince or MJ!!
Fuck Boomer Esiason. He's always on some bullshit.
oh well who is caring about this power goes out all the time can we move on the best team is the one that won and scored the most points no lights had nothing to do with 49ers loosing
the lights came back on didnt they?? its not like they went out during the game. STOP MAKING EXCUSES!! RAVENS WON GET OVER IT!!
Snitch I realize you need hits but damn this story is dumb as fuck...The Ravens were winning before the outage and they won the game????? What did she influence? How did she change the game? Can we get some real tea please?
Ms. Ann of STEVE HARVEY MORNING SHOW reported that BEYONCE had her OWN backup syster and that she DID NOT blow the power out.
That was GOD who is PUTTING BEYONCE'S lights out for her and her HUSBAND to stop thinking they are GOD! Both need to get on KNEES & PRAY before it's too late!
BTW Beyonce LIP SYNC the 2009 OSCARS PROOF: http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/popwrap/item_QJcCw6xq6Uol6DQenhcClL#axzz2JrFV3lRA
If that's the case, we should be thanking Beyonce for making the game close, because before the electrical incident, the Ravens was doin' the bird on dat azz! The right team still won, so what's the problem?
SHE affected the outcome?
I swear, we have become a sorry bunch here on this planet. Sometimes I imagine what it will be like in the future and I smile cause I won’t be around.
Awwww, man. That sucks. Damn you Beyonce!
GO RAVENS!! GO RAVENS!!! GO RAVENS!!!
*Doing Ray Lewis joy dance*
GO RAVENS!! GO RAVENS!! GO RAVENS!!
Don't forget to let Bey ride your float now! LOL!
People yall are going to wear Bey out Im a fan and the past few weeks has been to much.
this is dumb. they said she brought her own generator. I am a PATS fan and these SanFran fans need to stop complaining, ravens fans stop bitching about the momentum. the game is over. plus the Pats werent there so who cares
This is such a silly post Snitch. Do you have to write about Beyonce every day?! There are way more people to talk about. Not to mention the NFL already said she didn't cause the issue. The obsession with Beyonce on this site is sick and taking away from how good this blog USED to be.
No the ghosts of Katrina souls caused the power out. So many lives were lost in that city and later the ex Mayor was charged with stealing money. RIP Katrina's souls.
THANK YOU @ 10:02am
Love ya snitch, but this site is just like all the others now. It used to be unique and the tea was steaming hot. Now it's all the basic shit and same folks that bossip, tmz and the like report on. You should reserve that played out content for your other site gossipjacker. PLUS it shows in the comments, with all these youngn's and their silly shit postings running people off with the ridiculousness. This used to be a mature blog and it's turned bubble gum and boring. You got loyal members, bring the good ole days back.
The power went out because Bey's performance was so electrifying. Nuff said.
I am truly sick and tired of this...if we stop commenting on the bey threads, snitch will eventually stop posting this brawd and spilling luke warm tea!
The power went out because Beyonce is the only beacon of light.
I like this site as well but I must say Snitch I use to lurk & run all your gossip back to the real world coughs other blogs. You use to have the tea weeks ahead of time. This lil low key blog kept me up on the latest before everyone else. I always knew everything days or maybe weeks before hand and I loved having that advantage courtesy of Snitch. Like I was the media queen when i'm really jacking and not sourcing Snitch. Sorry lol. Selfish I know ! It was funny how I stayed a step ahead, called liars...next thing you know here comes the story days or weeks later whether true or not. I knew it was coming ! I do miss that ! Sorry for not sourcing but I couldn't reveal my source lol crazy right ?
Darkbutts stay pressed.
#lightskinrules
Our daily Beyonce post. ..There are other singers out there you know...
Doesn't anyone see that aura surrounding Bey in the pic above? She looks so angelic.
The lights going out was the only thing that gave the 49s a chance.
Lets move on from this bullshit please and thank you
You people are truly PATHETIC. It has already been stated that she was on a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GRID and she played NO PART IN THIS. If she does have any power it is directly from the idiots that feed into this conspiracy crap the way the right-wing racists believe Obama was born in Kenya.
Why dont we just blame Beyonce for the wars, high crime rate, racism and all the world's problems?!
1 Peter 5:6-7 King James Version (KJV) Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
*******************************************************************************
Well, Boomer I hope you dont lose your job. LoL! There is no way the NFL would ever say Beyonce was at fault...even if it was true. It was reported that the halftime show ran on its own power and had nothing to do with the main stadium grid. What is that triangle sign Beyonce is flashing????
Pleeeze let's put JBey, Chrianna, Kimye, Karacutchie and every "real housewife" on a fucking boat and let them drift off into oblivion. Maybe the ladies will take out the men and there will be no more procreation from any of them. Sheesh! This is the last comment I have for any of these "entertainers". I have been "entertained" by this bunch enough for a lifetime.
@Lovely
EXACTLY! Haters and Stans alike, are the ones who blow up Beyonce posts. Her name alone generates a lot of activity. If her demented detractors stayed their asses away from her threads I can guarentee her posts would drop by 3/4 of the comments. There's so much ass-kissing her deranged fans/stans can do alone, as I've seen in other blog comment sections.
But on topic: so the world is going to shit with illegal drone strikes, giant banking corporations are hoarding real assets, millions more laid off and all that can talk about is the fucking lights going off from a RIGGED game?
Oh.
I wish the lights would have went out on her performance..oh well I walked out to get my buffalo wings anyway when her nursery rhyme act came on!
I'm derailing all future Beyonce threads because I am sick of her!
Let the stans praise and worship her alone, its only about 44 of them so let them be great on these blogs, they will go away eventually if we don't come in her threads
After throwing up that satanic sign, The prince of darkness showed up to acknowledge his approval of his demonic Queen! It's sad that stupid people are now worshipping the creature over the creator! New Orleans is the voodoo capital. The devil is real and He will give you what He has to offer and No it wont be Life, Peace, or Love, but fame along with torment and sudden destruction. Beyonce has come to decieve and manipulate this generation with her be all about me and sexually charged platform, when you play with fire you will get burned. Beyonce stated that she was more powerful than her mind can concieve, blasemy at its best. People are worshipping her like she's a God. Wake up American you are going down like the Titanic with your Idolatry worship!
That weave was so dry, it's a wonder that a fire didn't ignite in the superdome!
blur poison oak said....WHERE IS BLUE IVY?!!!!! its starting to feel like shes a figment of our imaginations. is that beynillis goal?
THE RAVENS BEAT THE 49ERS FAIR AND SQUARE! BEYONCE DID A HALFTIME PERFORMANCE...THE SAME AS MANY CELEBRITIES HAVE DONE FOR SO MANY YEARS!
FUTHERMORE...DOES ANYONE BESIDES MYSELF KNOW THAT BEY THREW UP "THE ROCK"???? GET IT??? ROC-NATION??? NO??? NEVERMIND>>>>
*looks back at top pic* im sorry but where is beynillis hairline? why is it running to the middle of her head? does it figure she has enough hair from her eyebrows I mean whats going on?
@11:34..And let the Church say..Amen!
Im tired of those symbols like Bey please stop with that tired shit
11:34 good luck with that. Beyonce stans are soooo annoying they will still find a way to bring her up even on threads that have nothing to do with her! She casts spells and probably performs ritual sex acts to bully her way into our psyches. How else on earth would Beyonce of all ppl win a journalism award? She has a pebble for a brain! Why are we being force fed this broad on a continual basis, when the public has made it clear we are sick of her? She is casting another witchcraft spell in that pic. It looks pornographic and SICK! The triangle symbol with her witch hands is a vagina symbol and the mic is a penis(phallic). She looks like a demented, nappy headed, fake blond HAG in that photo.
Please we all know it was Mama Tina's voodoo that put the lights out
or Basement Baby tripped over some electrical wiring
She is basically revealing what goes on at these worldwide, Superbowl events....a lot child trafficking and sex rituals! There is no telling what happened in that demonic event when the lights went out! Nothing is an accident with these ppl! Beyonce's witch and demon activities are catching up to her. She's looking more and more like a haggard prostitute as time goes on.
Repent and go to Jesus Christ before its too late!
Shut up, Boomer and stick to football.
Bey didn't cause that damn power outage.
The engineers had one year to make sure the equipment was working properly.
They didn't do their damn job i.e. checking and testing the hardware, cables, making the necessary equipment replacements, and not informing the Artist of a potential problem.
Bey's job was to perform not check and test equipment.
Bey didn't alter the outcome of the game nor did she have anything to do with the 49ERS comeback.
The Ravens sucked in the second half and the 49ERS kicked their ass up until the last play when the Ravens stopped them from scoring.
please stop trying to make this tranny in granny panties more important than she is...
WE All know tacky tina consulted the best voodoo doctors in town to keep her robot daughter relevant and so the lights went out
We All know that the living God or Satan had something to do with that and it was most likely Satan as his children were performing rituals at halftime
Mystery solved
@12:02 PM Who are you talking to, me, 12:01?
Interesting video on the illuminiti
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZiAlr6oOU0
The EYE she performed on, The Lights(black out), Bey's satanic hand sign. Bitch was performing rituals at the halftime!
I don't know this woman at all but can ya'll please stop giving her all of this power. Did she have something to do with the ravens winning?
It was them fans!! Do you know how much power they gotta blow to keep this drip dry? That sweat monster brought her own generator and still sucked up all the juice! MTO dead wrong for them freeze frame shots of her face tho..the haggardry!omg, ppl being nice cuz baby when I tell you..what in the beautiful nightmare hell!?! No no sweet dreams..
I'm no Bey stan, but damn, you guys are treating her way that Republicans treat Obama. If it rains, it's their fault. If the sun doesn't show up that day, it's their fault. If you cut your finger, it's their fault.
Jeez, pick on that tacky outfit of Bey's but you are showing your rabid obsession of hate when you blame someone you don't like for something that has nothing to do with that person.
BTW, "Documents show stadium managers were concerned last fall about power lines feeding into the Superdome. Replacement work was done just weeks before the NFL championship game."
"Minutes of the 2012 meetings of the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District, the public authority that owns the Dome, show multiple references to electrical work in the latter part of the year, underscoring the urgency to complete last-minute electrical work in advance of the Super Bowl."

Lemme stop playin with power and use it for good, be careful B, it can be siphoned off to unnamed voices and they know how to use it superdome blackout...was a warning sigh hold up the light!
2:29 eff your rabid research!
Where was/is Blue Ivy???
Can Pepsi tell us, where the VMA baby is?
When the last time we saw her, Sept 4th 2012 vacation? Then a picture of a foot?
Funny how Rosemary writes notes on tumblr and instragram to everyone but Blue Ivy?
J & B are sick parents and I will not be buying watching anything associated with either of them!!
World tour who wants to support an artist that can show their child?
@4:20. You are a complete idiot. Why must Beyonce and Jay-Z parade their infant child around to be constantly harassed by the paparazzi just so you can see her on a regular basis? How would that enhance your life? MOST celebs choose to keep their kids out of the public eye and for good reason. And if not, you would resort to trashing them like you do Will and Jada. So miss me with that bullcrap! Bravo to the Carters for protecting their child!
BeyBey PR says Remove those ugly pictures taken of BGK-Carter during her SB performance...

@poster 9:41 : Quit spreading those outrageous lies! The official ratings have already been released and the halftime was watched by MORE viewers than the actual game. Aprox. 109 milliom viewers watched Beyonce's halftime performance versus a little over 100 million for the game itself making the entire night the 3rd most watched in tv history, just shy of Madonna's 114 mil from last year but network execs expected that because the New York Giants played in last year's game and NYC is the country's largest market. Go watch Fox News/Teabaggers because they are having a field day trying to tear Beyonce down and have been ever since she sang "At Last" to the Obamas during his first inauguration and it certainly didn't help that she actively campaigmed for the Prez this election and held several fundraisers in her home raising millions for his reelection. Wake up Black people and quit being manipulated to hate your own people, including hating yourself! It's ok to let go of the colonialized, slave mentality!
*looks back at top pic* im sorry but where is beynillis hairline? why is it running to the middle of her head? does it figure she has enough hair from her eyebrows I mean whats going on?
............
I gather that she pulls her lacefront forward so the glue sticks to her skin not her scalp,all to save her edges/hair/hairline....
Wonderful article:
Michelle (Obama), Beyonce, and the Fruitless Politics of Respectability
As a non-Beyoncé fan, even I have to admit that her halftime show at the Super Bowl was spectacular. It’s a grand stage built for grand performances, and if there was any doubt before this, she left none after that she is indeed the pre-eminent pop star of her generation. But all some people could see was a sex machine.
Kathryn Jean Lopez, writing for the National Review Online’s blog, was very concerned about Beyoncé’s performance. Lopez wants to know: “Why can’t we have a national entertainment moment that does not include a mother gyrating in a black teddy?” Because over the course of a thirteen-minute display of pyrotechnics, choreography, holograms and ten-piece all-female band, the only thing that really happened was a woman stood on stage shaking her ass, right?
Lopez found the display gratuitous, saying it was “no surprise that men made comments about stripper poles and putting dollar bills through their TV sets.” Instead of condemning those men for making such sexist remarks, it’s Beyoncé’s fault for eliciting that response.
http://www.thenation.com/blog/172664/michelle-beyonce-and-fruitless-politics-respectability#
(Continued)
But Lopez seems most disappointed not in Beyoncé, but in the first lady. After the performance Michelle Obama sent out a tweet praising Beyoncé, saying the singer was “phenomenal” and that she was “proud of her.” For Lopez, the first lady’s open adulation for Beyoncé sends the wrong message, as Beyoncé is a role model in some respects but, according to Lopez, an “example of cultural surrender, rather than leadership” in others. Keli Goff advanced a similar argument last year after Michelle Obama told People magazine that if she could be anyone in the world it would be Beyoncé. Goff worried what message that could be sending to the young black girls who look up to the first lady.
First, we have to get over the idea that we can choose for our young people who is and is not a role model. They will identify with whom and what speaks to them directly and helps them make sense of the world on their own. The role of the adults in their lives is to be sure they’re exposed to as many ideas and ways of thinking as possible.
Second, Obama’s embrace of Beyoncé is somehow seen as tarnishing Beyoncé’s own image, but even more so, that of the first lady. In the American consciousness, particularly for conservatives, the first lady should be the embodiment of all the puritanical implications of the latter part of her title. This precludes her from being sexual in any way—even if it’s only vicariously through a famous pop star. When she falls short of those ideals, someone will always be there to publicly admonish her for it.
The assumption underlying both Lopez’s and Goff’s outcries is that by associating with what they consider less than desirable elements, Obama invites criticism on herself.
It’s a long-standing idea among groups traditionally discriminated against in this country that if they present themselves as above reproach—twice or three times as worthy of praise—those in power will have no choice but to see and accept them as fully human productive members of society. It’s a politics of respectability that puts the onus of ending discrimination on those who experience the discrimination, through individual action and responsibility.
But that just doesn’t work. As a black woman, the first lady will come up against many forms of racist and sexist discrimination that replicate themselves in the way she is discussed and critiqued in public. Her accomplishments don’t protect her from these attacks; in fact, the attacks are intensified precisely because of what she has achieved. This is how systems of oppression work, and it's how they'll continue to work until those who benefit from them disavow them and the privilege that is bestowed upon them. No matter the first lady’s actions, they won’t cure racism and sexism.
Lopez says, “I so want the Obamas to be leaders on building a culture of marriage and fatherhood and human dignity.” As public figures, the Obamas already represent all of those things, as do Beyoncé and her husband. But if you’re determined to find a way to blame people for their own marginalization, you will.
BEYTHIEF COPIES AGAIN!
HER SUPERBOWL COSTUME IS IDENTICAL TO TINA TURNER'S COSTUME WITH LACE SKIRT!!

DAMN! SHE NEVER VEERS OFF THE DAMN SCRIPT!
@11:34 AM I loved your comment it was so true and to the point.
SNITCH, MALCOLM X GRANDSON ARRESTED AND YOU DIDNT POSTED IT!!
New York, NY - Iranian news outlet PressTV is reporting that the grandson of Malcolm X has been detained by the FBI en route to Iran. Malcolm Shabazz, an outspoken activist, was reportedly arrested on Monday while en route to Tehran for a Hollywoodism conference. According to sources, the FBI is refusing to provide any details as it relates to the reason for Shabazz’s arrest or his whereabouts.
PressTV provided additional detail on the conference Shabazz was scheduled to attend:
Tehran hosted the third Hollywoodism International Conference, on the sidelines of the 31st Fajr International Film Festival in the Iranian capital Tehran on Sunday.
Many filmmakers, directors, actors, and movie critics as well as politicians and economists took part in the conference.
Mike Gravel, a former US Senator who attended the conference, condemned Hollywood’s role in imposing imperialistic views on the people of the world.
“Hollywood is just a tool of the American government and European governments to pursue their imperialistic views whether it is in economy…culture…or religion,” Gravel stated.
During a previous interview with Iranian television, Malcolm Shabazz said slavery still exists in America. While speaking out about the murder of Trayvon Martin, Shabazz said, “There are hundreds of Black Americans who are being murdered in the United States every year with impunity. And police officers serve no time,” he said. “They always get off.”
@5;26, tHEY ARE UGLY PICS FROM HER PUBLICIST, IT SHOWS HER NEW MJ NOSE. YUCK!!
THANKS BUZZFEED FOR THE EMAIL FROM YVONNE HER PR PROBALY NECOLE FROM IPAD, NO SHE IS BEY FAN SINCE 97, ONE OF THE DAMN NAMES ON HERE.
lOL , Publicists calling and emailing websites to tell them to remove Bey's pics. So how much money does Bey pay you Snitch to run a daily post on her? Yvonne calls and and they are the first to comment, we knew it, busted, ugly and new nose job.
I TOLD YALL IT WAS THE SOULS OF THE FOLKS WHO PASTED IN KATRINA..WOW
The Superdome blackout after Beyoncé’s half-time show wasn’t the only tech glitch in New Orleans Sunday. We’re told rapper Busta Rhymes had trouble performing hits including “Look at Me Now” at Greenhouse’s pop-up club in the Big Easy. “In the middle of his set, he started having sound issues,” says a spy, adding the sound dropped to a whisper. “Busta had to tell the tech crew to ‘turn up the volume!’ and, ‘Stop playing with my mike level and have a drink!’ ” Also providing tunes at the pop-up of the New York club at Jax Brewery Bistro Bar were DJ Jus-Ske, Nima Yamini and Scram Jones.
PETA SLAMS BEYONCE FOR IGUANA AND PYTHON SUPERBOWL OUTFIT (WHICH BY THE WAY SHE COPIED THE DESIGN FROM TINA TURNER):
http://www.examiner.com/article/peta-slams-beyonc-for-iguana-and-python-skinned-costume-at-super-bowl
#1 TREND ON AOL.COM!
publicists still dragging this shit out LMAO
No. When Beyonce rehearsed, the power went out twice which is why her show had a different generator.
Yes, she blew the lights out. I didn't like the show anyway. Go Ravens and Ray Lewis B-More in the house.
The Pics.... You gotta know that regardless how unflattering they are, Beyonce, her P.R. people and agent.... etc., are loving the fact that she is being kept in the news every since the lip syncing at the Whitehouse. Nowadays celebrities do not care if it is good or bad, they love having their names in the media. "Especially when they have a big event coming up, like her world tour." As for the FLOTUS Michelle Obama... I would be very careful about putting Beyonce on that pedestal, she is not a good role model, especially for young girls like our first daughters. I've read articles that told how Beyonce was writing letters to Mrs. Obama. {retty good timing, don't you think? She sweet talks the FLOTUS, hosts fundraisers for the POTUS, gets to sing... lip sync, at the inaugration, performs at the superbowl, all just before her world tour. I just hope our President is safe around her. I believe he is an honorable man and I support him wholeheartedly, but sometimes it just takes an unintended "misinterpreted photo" to bring a good man down. He is so careful about who he associates with, I just hope hw keeps his guard up around women like her.
