No. Then you'd have to pronounce it as 'Bey-ons".

But then her name would be pronounced "Beyonse" like the lady calls her at the beginning of "Haunted"...

That so-called accent mark is attached to a letter in the French alphabet which is the origin of the name in the 1st place. You're being a nuisance for the sake of it !!

No because it's her real name and Kesha was using a stage name with that dollar sign. It'd be kinda silly.

I DIE WHEN THEY SAY "BEYONSE KNOWLES"
She shouldn't the 'é' makes her name. "Beyonce" is so boring.
