Beyoncé Gets Squeezed Over Her “Lemonade” Teaser

Written By Cyrus Langhorne

Grammy-winning singer Beyoncé has some legal heat on her head after being sued for the promotional trailer behind her chart-topping Lemonade album.

According to reports, Queen Bey is accused of copying a portion of the trailer from a short film.

According to a new lawsuit filed in New York, this trailer was copied without permission from a short film titled Palinoia. The plaintiff in the case is Matthew Fulks, who identifies himself as both an independent filmmaker as well as the creative director at WDRB. Fulks says he conceptualizes, writes and directs TV advertisements for the Louisville, Ky.-based news station. (The Hollywood Reporter)

Last month, a picture of Queen Bey donning yellow and covering up her mobile phone’s icon with a lemonade sticker surfaced.

Beyonce is just one step from strapping on a sandwich board that reads, “Buy my album, please.” Bey and Jay Z took a post-dinner stroll through Midtown NYC Thursday, which doesn’t happen often … making it all look suspiciously promotional. BTW … Bey’s album fell to No. 2 after only one week at the top … toppled by Drake’s “Views” … so Bey’s hustle is very real. (TMZ)

Rap mogul Jay Z‘s TIDAL streaming service is rewarding lucky members with Beyoncé tour tickets just for listening to her album next week.

TIDAL is giving members the chance to go to the Formation World Tour! Starting on May 30th, members that stream Beyoncé’s LEMONADE will be entered for a chance to win tickets for shows across the country.

Recent reports claimed Bey’s new album helped spark a surge in TIDAL subscribers.

Tidal said that it gained 1.2 million user sign-ups, including free trials, in the first week that “Lemonade” was available; the service had said in March that it had 3 million users. As for its competitors, Spotify said that it had 30 million paying subscribers globally; Apple Music said it had 13 million. (New York Times)
