Do you think Beyoncé‘s videos and songs are
overly sexual? Her Pastor speaks on criticism.
Queen Bey, her parents Tina and Matthew
Knowles, as well as her best friend Kelly
Rowland , have been members of St. John’s
United Methodist Church for a long time.
Global humanitarian and author Rudy Rasmus is
a co-pastor at the church. In 2008, he joined
Jay Z and Beyoncé in holy matrimony.
He says the power couple’s relationship is
stronger than ever. “They’re friends. Their
relationship is healthy and life has been good.”
In an interview with The Grio , he speaks on
criticism from people including Christians, for her
explicit lyrics and videos.
“Beyoncé is a consummate entertainer, and an
entertainer entertains.
Is the entertainer’s entertainment an expression
of that person’s life and reality? I don’t know.
But I know when Arnold Schwarzenegger straps
on a 30 caliber cannon and blows planes out of
the sky, nobody asks the question, ‘Arnold why
are you walking around for those 90 minutes in
that suit with that 30 caliber cannon? What kind
of person are you?’ I don’t think I’ve heard that
question.
But at the end of the day, Arnold
Schwarzenegger is an entertainer.
I think a person has the right to earn a living in
the way that they are gifted, and I think that she
is tremendously gifted and I think she expresses
that gift in some amazing ways.
I think the world would be void an extreme
talent if we silenced her or censored her.”
