16 Celebrity Quotes About Beyonce That Prove Stars Love Her Like XO, Too
It's no secret that everybody loves Beyoncé. Her birthday was practically a national holiday, and when she performed at the VMAs, people pretty much lost their minds — in the best possible way. She's come a long way since her Destiny's Child days and now is a musical icon whose effect isn't limited to ordinary people like us. Celebs are equally huge Beyoncé fans and proud of it! From President Obama to Katy Perry, here's a round-up of the ***Flawless Fan Club.
Anna Kendrick
Anna Kendrick met Beyoncé at the Grammys. Afterwards she said, “I know everybody is, but I’m totally obsessed with Beyoncé. I walked past Beyoncé at one point and, because I’m not worthy, I didn’t look at her.”
That’s when something amazing happened… Bey recognized her.
The Pitch Perfect star recalled, “She points to Jay Z and was like, ‘Oh, we just watched you on the Kennedy Center Honors. You were so great. You were so cute in your little red dress.’ She said that I had a little red dress, which means that she actually watched it, or it means that I was having a stroke and I imagined the entire thing.”

Chrissy Teigen
It’s no secret Chrissy Teigen is a fan. She even attended the On The Run Tour. She also expresses her love on Twitter with posts like this: “Ummmmm of course Beyoncé killed it she is Beyoncé she had to there is no other way for Beyoncé to do things she doesn’t know how to not.”
And then when the HBO special aired, Teigen tweeted, “Thank you Beyoncé for making marriage seem cool it’s the only reason I said yes”
Shay Mitchell
Not only is her Pretty Little Liars character Emily a fan of the “Irreplaceable” singer, but Shay Mitchell is equally obsessed. After the VMAs, she posted an Instagram with the caption: “I finally watched the BeyMA’s just now and I am still in shock. Don’t know if I have ever cried while watching a performance, but I definitely did tonight. Once again she proved there is only one Queen. *Bow down*”

Kanye West
No one will ever forget the 2009 VMAs when Kanye West stole Taylor Swift’s spotlight. Sure, he was a jerk, but he couldn’t help it — he’s just such a huge Bey fan. As I’m sure you recall, he said, “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”
Katy Perry
When Beyoncé’s surprise album dropped last December, Katy Perry tweeted a message we could all relate to: “Don’t talk to me today unless it’s about @Beyonce THANX.”
She also added, “B done broke the internet. #stanning”
Barack Obama
Yup, even the President is Bey-obsessed. In 2012, Barack Obama said, “Beyoncé could not be a better role model for my girls because she carries herself with such class and poise and has so much talent.”
Demi Lovato
Like most of us, Demi Lovato freaked out when Bey’s visual album dropped. She tweeted a series of ecstatic reactions in all caps, including: “HOW IS ANYONE NOT TWEETING ABOUT #BEYONCE RIGHT NOW?!!?!?” and “Sexiest woman ON THE PLANET… and WHO DIRECTED THESE VIDEOS?!!? #OBSESSED #BEYONCE #imightbeobsessedwithher #IWANTTOBEHER.”
Jennifer Lawrence
“They’re the king and queen of America,” Jennifer Lawrence said when talking about Bey and Jay. Can’t disagree with that one! The actress also admitted she’s been a fan ever since the Destiny’s Child days.
Drake
Drake collaborated with Beyoncé on the song “Mine.” Speaking of the experience, he said, “I love working with Bey, she’s incredible. Whenever she’s ready to work, I’m ready to work.” He also declared her album “one of the best oopsy daisies of all time.” (I appreciate Drake using the phrase “oopsy daisies!”)
Jordin Sparks
Jordin Sparks once tweeted, “I just…I just…@beyonce is amazing.” Short, to the point, and incredibly accurate.
Sam Smith
If you need proof that Sam Smith is a fan of the “Flawless” singer, look no further than his recent rendition of Bey-raoke (Beyoncé karaoke). Also, here’s what he said when asked by HuffPost about the highlight of his year: “Meeting Beyoncé. She’s unbelievable.”
Nicki Minaj
She may have recorded a song with Bey, but that doesn’t mean Nicki Minaj kept her cool. She confessed, “Jay called me, when I was, like, on my way to Vegas and he said, ‘Beyoncé wants you to remix ‘“Flawless.”’ And after I got proper medical help and started breathing again, I was like, ‘What?’”
Jenna Dewan Tatum
Jenna Dewan Tatum is a part of the Beyhive, too! The Step Up star tweeted this after Bey’s epic VMA performance: “Is beyonce real?!? Or is she some sort of super human force. I mean..that performance was giving me EVERYTHING.”
Solange
Unsurprisingly, Solange thinks highly of her big sis. She considers Bey her best friend and they talk every day. Explaining their sisterly bond, Solange said, “She was and is such a role model, but I think more so it was an insane learning process for me to have a big sister like that — to be able to see the good, the bad and everything in between that comes with fame and success, and to know what I was getting myself into.”
Jay Z
Are you really surprised? Nope. I’d have to say Jay Z is her biggest fan. He referred to her as “the greatest living entertainer” when introducing her at the VMAs. She’s also an inspiration for many of his raps, including “Picasso Baby,” where he says, “Sleeping every night next to Mona Lisa/ The modern day version/ With better features.” So appropriate since they recently posed in front of the Mona Lisa…
Blue Ivy
Actually… Blue Ivy might be her biggest fan. I mean, you remember THE DANCE. As for her quote, at this year’s VMAs Blue said, “Go mommy.”
