Xaviaer DuRousseau Says Beyoncé’s Focus Should Be Her Music
His insults for the ‘Cowboy Carter’ artist follow her appearance at VP Kamala Harris’ rally in Houston this past weekend.

DuRousseau said that the Democratic nominee is “bringing any celebrity she can to try to get any kind of endorsement.” Furthermore, he stated that Harris has “no substance herself.”

Later on the platform X (formerly Twitter), he claimed that dragging Beyoncé on live TV is the “bravest thing” he’s “ever done in [his] career.” He also called her fanbase “domestic terrorists.” Peep his comments down below.

BeyHive Pulls Receipts Of Media Personality Praising Her, He Reacts
As clips of Xaviaer DuRousseau’s comments on Fox caught traction, social media users put on their investigative caps. After a lil’ digging on X (formerly Twitter), presumed Beyoncé supporters found at least SIX tweets of DuRousseau stanning the Carters that go as far back as 2023.
“Conservatives DRAG me every time I say this, but I’m obsessed with the CArters and will defend them as if I’m on their payroll. Jay-Z and Beyoncé are a Royal Family,” he wrote in June 2023.
In two other posts, Xaviaer DuRousseau said Bey was “objectively more talented than the Beatles” and defended her “vocal range, genre versatility, dancing, directing, producing and filmmaking” in comparison. Swipe below to see his other stan posts.
Not long after, Xaviaer DuRousseau spoke directly to The Shade Room about the stan receipts. He doubled down on his stance that Beyoncé’s focus should be her music, and not campaigning for Kamala Harris in the election’s final stretch.
“The receipts may have gagged me, but they do not discredit what I said on FOX News. I am STILL a Beyoncé fan. It’s not my fault that she doesn’t promote her music, and that’s why her album FLED the charts like Harriett Tubman in the middle of the night. Maybe that wouldn’t have happened if she focused on her album rather than politics.”
Additionally, Xaviaer DuRousseau dragged Rihanna into his messy digs, saying: “Beyoncé fans need to be honest about her lack of marketing. She needs to also take some business notes from Ms. Fenty on how to promote her businesses! I wish Beyoncé the best, and that starts with electing Donald Trump as president.”
