Superbowl '13 is why her tour blew up. Now they did it again for this tour. She just has the best PR team and the best staging team.

You forgot TALENT and SUBSTANCE.
None of those PR strategies would work if it was easy to cut through the façade. If BEYONCÉ and LEMONADE were bad albums or if she legitimately gave a bad performance, the 100s and 100s of fomos here and all over the web waiting for her to fail would be the first ones to jump on it.
You guys don't realize what kind of hardworking artist is in front of you until you'll be left with just the Britknees and all her clones in the industry.
Sad.
