On The Run Tour Makes Final Stop In San Francisco

San Francisco, CA – One of the biggest concerts of the decade finally made it to the city. Two icons came together to perform some of their Grammy nominated hits and together it was explosive. Amongst the rumors that the power couple would not make it to San Francisco due to their marital woes, the rumors proved false.

Jay Z and Beyonce’ took the stage in front of a sellout crowd at AT&T Park. Their highly anticipated show was absolutely phenomenal. I’ve seen both perform separately and together it’s something you’ve never seen before. In their first collaborative tour which will wrap in San Francisco tomorrow night, it was very entertaining.

They seemed far from a couple that’s hit headline news regarding an end to their marriage. Their Bonnie and Clyde themed film montage ran throughout the show displayed on two jumbotron screens. Both Jay-Z and Beyonce performed their number one hits together and separately.

Beyonce appeared to be more daring in a few lace and leopard outfits which included one that showed her butt cheeks as well as her dancers while performing her smash hit “Bow Down Bitches”. Mrs. Carter also sang hits such as “Run the World (Girls)”, “Pretty Hurts”, and “Single Ladies”.

“Aim to be successful. Aspire to marriage; it can be a source of joy and love.”

This was one of the many bold phrases that came across the screen before Beyonce sang “Flawless” to Outkast’s “Damn, damn, damn” instrumental. After she sat in an oversized chair, it turned around to feature Jay-Z on the other side as he began spitting lyrics out for his hit “Big Pimpin”. He sang hits off his album Watch The Throne with Kanye West and some of his classics hits.

He got the crowd screaming to the top of their lungs when he performed many of his old songs which his wife performed along with him like “Song Cry”, “Public Announcement” and his famous classic hit “Hard Knock Life.” But most memorable was when the two performed “Holy Grail” and “Forever Young” which concluded the concert with a video of their daughter Blue Ivy.

Snippets of their family vacation and Blue’s first steps brought the sellout crowd to their feet with oooo’s and aaahhh’s while they watched what appeared to be a perfect family. They held hands, hugged and could not contain their infectious smiles for one another. On stage, Jay-Z and Beyonce are a happily married couple in love despite the divorce rumors.

The negative publicity didn’t stop the rise of their tickets sales. The power couple will have grossed more than $100 million in ticket sales. Their concert has sold out across the world and will make its final stop in Paris, France. The On The Run Tour is slated to be the highest earning celebrity couple duo to perform on tour. And after tonight’s concert, I’d say it’s the best in this decade. It’s definitely a must see.

Seth Curry Makes Impressive Debut with the Golden State Warriors

Seth looked comfortable in his new uniform, seamlessly fitting into the Warriors’ offensive and defensive system. He finished the night with an impressive 14 points, becoming one of the team’s top scorers for the game. Seth’s points came in a variety of ways – floaters, spot-up three-pointers, mid-range jumpers, and a handful of aggressive drives that kept the Oklahoma City Thunder defense on its heels.

Tuesday night was anything but ordinary for fans in San Francisco as Seth Curry made his highly anticipated debut as a new member of the Golden State Warriors. Seth didn’t disappoint, delivering a performance that not only showcased his scoring ability but also demonstrated his added value to the team.

At 35, the 12-year NBA veteran on Monday signed a contract to play with the Warriors for the rest of the season.

One of the most memorable moments of the evening came before Seth even scored his first points. As he checked into the game, the Chase Center erupted into applause, with fans rising to their feet to give the newest Warrior a standing ovation.

The crowd’s reaction was a testament not only to Seth’s reputation as a sharpshooter but also to the excitement he brings to the Warriors. It was clear that fans quickly embraced Seth as one of their own, eager to see what he could bring to the team’s championship aspirations.

Warriors’ superstar Steph Curry – Seth’s brother – did not play due to an injury. One could only imagine what it would be like if the Curry brothers were on the court together. Magic in the making.

Seth’s debut proved to be a turning point for the Warriors. Not only did he contribute on the scoreboard, but he also brought a sense of confidence and composure to the floor.

While their loss last night, OKC 124 – GSW 112, Seth’s impact was a game-changer and there’s more yet to come. Beyond statistics, it was clear that Seth’s presence elevated the team’s performance, giving the Warriors a new force as they look to make a deep playoff run.
