“We arrived last night and we slept here”, says, smiling Lorenzo, who came from Florence with his friend to attend the only Parisian concert of the Beyoncé’s “Renaissance WorldTour”. “It was hard and it was cold,” adds an Italian fan of the star, “but we would do much more than that for her! “, continues his friend. The music star Beyoncé is back this Friday at the Stade de France, five years after coming with her husband Jay-Z. A few hours from the start of the concert, thousands of fans were already queuing, some having even slept in front of the stadium.
Ruby, 20, is “hyper-excited” at the idea of being able to see for the first time on stage the singer he has listened to “since he was very young”. “I arrived at 4:50 in the morning and I’m not tired… Excitement boosts! says the young man. Queen B will perform for three hours in front of more than 60,000 fans who have each paid between 80 and 200 euros to be able to attend the concert.
