I started stanning for Bey when I saw Jay Z's Fade To Black and saw Bey DRAG that stage with my fav Crazy In Love performance ever. I've been hooked since.
Britney - ever since toxic
Kylie - album x - in my arms
Rihanna -6 weeks ago
Beyoncé - DIL performance Grammys then stopped when I entered the hive base
Lady gaga - just dance stopped in November
Kesha - tik took stopped when she released her second album
Mariah carey - get your number

Demi lovato - ever since sonny with a chance
Shakira- whenever wherever
I liked her since I saw JD on TV in 2008 and adored and have been following all of her music videos that were airing back then. Like, I was too little to download albums etc (cause I didn't know how ). But I downloaded TFM in late 2009 / early 2010 and have been truly stanning since then.
I knew of Beyonce like the rest of the world and I loved her songs (especially B'day). But I was a MJ stan first. The only reason why I started to stan for Beyonce was because of this video she did as a tribute (below). I was like "wow what a voice!" Being a MJ stan and dealing with is death was really depressing. I started watching her live performances and to obsess over her. It was like a coping mechanism for me. Once I realize I was stalking her as much as I did MJ, I confirmed my stan status. Now, my MJ stanning days are gone and Beyonce took his place in my heart. She is the only person worthy of doing that.
I know I sound like a weird fan girl, but if you are part of stan culture, the weird title is already attached. I embrace it LOL!
