Time Out says
Mon Feb 4 2013
The bootylicious Ms Knowles brings her irresistible, high-sheen blend of R&B, hip hop and pop to town for a six-night run, strutting her impressive stuff to some of the defining pop songs of the last fifteen years. One sticking point: the tour's full title, The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour Starring Beyoncé, sends a little shudder shot down our feminist backbone. Why would our favourite independent woman suddenly devalue her own name like that in favour of her husband's? Just because Jay-Z put a ring on it, did that mean she had to become a poster girl for patriarchy? Still, once she starts pumping out the hits – a clutch of top tunes, including 'Crazy in Love', 'Girls', 'Single Ladies' and 'Love on Top', that have wormed their way into the consciousness of all sentient beings – we'll all see who run this mother.
