8 Relatable Times Beyoncé Proved That She Was Totally Human
Let’s face it: It’s Beyoncé‘s world and we’re simply living in it. Since her solo artist debut in 2003, Beyoncé has built a rabid fanbase (appropriately named, “The Beyhive”) and developed a queen-like reputation. But amid the deafening fanfare an internet-breaking pregnancy announcements, it can be easy to forget that Beyoncé was once a regular person like us—minus the goddess-like voice, house of full of Grammys, and ability to float across the red carpet.
Though we would never call Beyoncé a mere mortal, she’s not too different from you and I—and we’ve got the receipts to prove it. Ahead, we look back at eight relatable when Beyoncé proved that she was an ordinary human being. From when she was caught shopping at a department store to the time even she couldn’t fight off allergies, take a look at Beyoncé’s most relatable moments.
When She Shopped at Target
In December 2017, Beyoncé was spotted doing some last-minute holiday shopping at a Target in San Clemente, California. She was joined by her mom, Tina Lawson, and her 6-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, who rode in a plastic red shopping cart as her mom wheeled her around the store. Though Beyoncé didn’t remove her sunglasses (in an effort to mask her identity), that didn’t stop fans from taking grainy pictures of her in the store. In one picture, Beyoncé was even photographed waiting in line to checkout like other customers.

When She Sneezed on Stage
Even Beyoncé gets the sniffles. At a New York concert for her Formation World Tour in June 2016, surprised fans when she paused mid-concert to fight a sneeze. A video of the moment shows Beyoncé pacing back and forth across the stage as she tried to hold in the sneeze. Eventually, she is seen holding her elbow up to her face to cover her sneeze as fans chant, “We love you, Beyoncé!” a few feet away.

When Her Hair Got Stuck in a Fan
There are a lot of BeyHive members who dream of touching Beyoncé’s hair, but for one “fan,” that dream came true. At a Montreal concert for her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in July 2013, Beyoncé’s luxurious, honey-blonde hair was caught in a fan when she made her way down some stairs. A video of the moment shows Beyoncé singing “Halo” as a huge stage fan sucks up a chunk of her hair, leaving her trapped for a couple minutes. Fortunately, she pulled through like a champ by untangling herself while belting out the rest of the song.
When She Bled After Her Earring Ripped
Though it’s easy to assume that Beyoncé is immune to injuries, she prove that she is a regular human being who also bleeds when her ear started bleeding at a Tidal concert in October 2016. The singer was in the middle of performing her song “Haunted” when she noticed a liquid tricking down her ear. To find out what it was, she quickly wiped her ear lobe with her finger, glanced at it, and discovered it was blood. What happened was, in the middle of her dancing, the singer’s dangly earring got stuck on her hair, causing her lobe to rip in half. Of course, she finished the performance like the injury was no big deal.

When She Admitted She Gets Boogers, Too
If you’ve been in the front row at a Beyoncé concert, she might’ve blown her snot on you. On a 2011 television special titled, “A Night with Beyoncé,” the singer revealed that she often develops snot “bubbles” from holding in runny noses while performing. We’re sure her fans don’t mind.
“My nose runs a lot and when I’m singing I can’t blow it, so there have been occasions when I’ve ended up with a ‘bubble’ coming out my nose,” she said.
