Personally, I think Beyonce should b ashamed of herself! 50,000?? thats it? She has enough money to give a bigger donation than that and she’s asking ppl to donate can goods to her shows all the while her tix are $100.00 or more…gtfoh! She makes me SICK!

The outfit is cute stop hating and she is simply stunnin flawless make up makin her looks very young! I hope she is ok cuz man that tour must be tiring as hell, plus BET Awards o sunday, she is busy!
@5 T-Pain got his diamond big azz chain costin more you didnt complain he could help ppl instead of havin this idiocity on his neck so you GTFOH! What did you donate yourself with the lil money you got? please tell us cuz nothin is good enough for anyone here. Im waitin. 3,5 million of ppl will have a meal because of the bish and you still whinin; there are more richer celebs than her and I dont hear anythin they did for anybody exceptin Oprah or some! Matter fact I googled her charity and the bish gave her entire cadillac records salary as an actress which is 4 million dollar to Phoenix House, which runs 98 rehab programmes in USA and wanted to stay quiet about it. She also got the Survivor foundation active in Houston and gave also 200,000 for the hurricanes!
I swear humans are so quick o judge ppl hey dont know!

@ #15 Thank you for clearing that up it says big as day Columbia records. Anyway .75 cents a ticket is alot. For instance in Houston The Toyota center holds 20,000 meaning that’s 15,000 dollars that’s pretty good for one show.
Keep up the great work Bey!!!

She only giving now because people has been complainting that she don’t ever give to no one, also this ssuch fill her concerts because her ticket sale is down that how it look to me. Look like she has had some plastic done and has had her skin lighten or it photo shop one, but if she really donating from heart about time she give back but I still say that she getting something out of it. The knowels are something else.
you better believe they reading net.

Wow… Even when the chick does something good, people are still complaining….Also someone said that the only reason that she’s doing it is because people have been complaining that she don’t give enough, maybe she do give and she chooses not to have it publicized because she’s not doing it for publicity. IDK… SMH.. Anyway I wish her the best and she looks gorgeous in all her picks. A natural beauty like her mom.

Some of you are so under her spell anything she does is supernatural to you! Beyonce supporting Hamburger Helper is embarrassing to our community because Hamburger Helper is not nutritious and its full of chemicals, but you dont care because you obviously inhale anything into your body. Just because she states that the only thing she can make does not make it good. Why is Beyonce not supporting a nutritional meal? Something that offers value to her people to keep us away from high blood pressure, diabetes, or other illnesses unhealthy food causes? Thats because she doesnt care about you, she is telling you to eat garbage. Columbia gave the money, Beyonce was there as the face to promote….also just becasue she is giving .25 cent for every ticket does not impress me because during tax season she gets a huge write off because its business.
Some of you are so obsessed with her she will tell you to jump off a bridge and you would really do it. Just like her music she keeps you dumb kool aid drinkers void of any substance and value……..

#51. who else in the black community is partnering up with nebody to feed anybody???? uuuum NOBODY. Instead of u complaining about hamburger helper u should see the bigger picture and see how she is trying to help someone and how all those can goods(that she also collected on her last tour) are gonna feed alot of children. u just wanna find something to complain about. get a life

Wednesday, June 24, 2009 /
I wondered why they partnered with Hamburger Helper…this isn’t the best nutritional meal…it’s always about sales and marketing…building brands…I would have prefered for her to partner with Green Giant frozen vegetalbes for those who’re really struggling to put food on the table, especially, with the alarming stats of juvenille obesity…she could get kids and parents to make healthier food choices and make eating brocolli or spinach sexy…eating hamburger helper isn’t going to lowered your food bill and people could have made donations to a healthier food product company…Pillsbury…etc….I’m impressed with people who can generously give like Angelina Jolie, giving away a third of her income or Sandra Bullock…give away a million at a time…in bits or big ways…giving is essential to greatness for all of us…together, we all make a difference!!!
This is just another Knowles publicity and promotional tool…a smart business move…but, notihng can stop the inevitable…so Bey stans should stop the insane idolatry…let this woman live a life of normacy as much as a super star can and stop expecting her to be the one and only and then perhaps, she’ll stop…while she’s still the hottest chick in the game…the game has changed…the field widen…the spectators hunger for more…creativity and talent from their BEVY of lovely artists…Bey will always have a place in the sun…she’s very talented and at this point as iconic as she’ll get…all she can do is to continue to give us latitude, she has the altitude on lock! This is the catch 22 of reaching meteoric super stardom in a matter of a few years…with the type of media we have today…it’s easy to be remembered or forgotten…I’m sure time will be kind to Beyonce…as she takes a breather…

LOVE HER! She stays working and giving back.For the most parts she doesn’t always go public about her charity efforts.The same woman that gave away her pay fee(5mil) from “Cadillac records’ to the rehabilitation center in NYC.LOL @ the haters getting mad and hating on her charity efforts.What exactly are you haters doing to help the poor or the people in need?!? Oh and by the way 75cents are given to charity from a ticket of her shows been sold. Anyhow she look rested and glowing with that freshly new tan and highlights bringing out her light brown eyes.

You Beyonce haters are wasting your time. How many other “stars” do you see donating time or money to a charity. Very few. @ least Bey is involved in something and her attaching her name to a cause is guaranteed to garner attention. Hamburger helper is not that bad if you tweak the ingredients (you can make it with lean ground turkey and use skim milk) and besides it is reasonably priced and all some people can afford. And if you eat it get off your ass and exercise to burn it off…so what!!!
Quit hating you fools…keep doing ya charity thang Mrs. Knowles-Carter!!!

Beyonce always give back, she may give 50,000 here and 1 or 2mil some other place, that’s why her bank gets bigger.. The more you give the more you will receive.

@ 5……how easy is it for people to sit back and say what someone should give…How much did your favorite artist give to charity??? Matter of fact, when was the last time you donated anything??
@34 you clearly aren’t a Bee fan, this isnt the first time she’s done charity you idiot. Before making a dumb azz comment like that. why don’t you do a little research.
BTW, Bee looks flawless….one of the hardest working woman in the biz, and always manages to have a smile on her face. And she looks DAMN good.

People are donating canned goods, which I’m sure 90% of the canned goods will be veggies. Like I said early, it’s easy as hell to sit down and critize what someone is doing.
