We Asked Miranda Lambert About Beyonce, and She’s Totally Right!
When you think about country music royalty, Miranda Lambert’s name is sure to come up. But what happens when a global pop sensation like Beyoncé decides to step into the world of twangy guitars and cowboy boots? You might expect some pushback, but Miranda Lambert has a completely different perspective. In fact, when we asked her about Beyoncé's bold move into country, Lambert not only backed her up, she praised her—and honestly, she’s totally right!
Miranda Lambert has always been a proud Texan, so when another Texas native like Beyoncé released her country album , people were curious about what Lambert thought. Instead of shading the pop icon for venturing into her territory, Lambert has been nothing but supportive. “I want artists to be themselves,” Miranda shared in a recent interview, explaining that it’s all about authenticity.
And in her eyes, Beyoncé’s foray into country music is genuine, even if it ruffled some feathers in Nashville.
The core of Lambert’s argument is that music, no matter the genre, should always reflect the artist's true self. "If you're living in your authenticity, you have to appreciate that about an artist," she explained. For Miranda, it’s less about who’s traditionally part of the country scene and more about whether the music comes from a real place.
