The singer's fanbase turned to social media to express her frustration over Beyoncé's film "Homecoming: A Film" which was snubbed at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards this weekend. The show, which took place at ceremonies on Saturday and Sunday, pays tribute to the artistic and technical achievements of American television programming.
"Homecoming" has been nominated for six awards in the variety and non-fiction specialty categories: Best Special (Pre-Recorded), Direction, Writing, Musical Direction, Production Design and Costumes.
He lost on all.
The award for Best Special Variety was awarded to "Carpool Karaoke: When Corden Met McCartney". "Springsteen on Broadway" won Best Director and Hannah Gadsby's "Nanette" won for Writing. The price of the production design was awarded to the live TV production "Rent", while the musical direction was awarded to "Fosse / Verdon FX". "RuPaul & # 39; s Drag Race" won the Best Costume Trophy.
Twitter fans were particularly unhappy that "Carpool Karaoke" triumphed over Homecoming, which Queen Bey wrote, directed and produced herself. The documentary, which premiered on Netflix in April, is a behind-the-scenes look at the two weekend performances that have made Beyoncé the first black woman ever to star in the music and dance festival.

"James Corden is a very adorable human being, and I really enjoy carpool karaoke.
says Soraya Nadia McDonald, criticism of culture at The Undefeated. "HOMECOMING, on the other hand, is essential, it's timeless, it's comprehensive and original, it really bothers me."
"Do you want to tell me that Beyonce did not win Emmy tonight for her homecoming ?!" Stay without complying to her face! Smh! " wrote "Ellen" contributor to the show
Kalen Allen.
"Beyoncé has created Beychella for us and our positive response and appreciation for her is greater than any reward we could give her … but the Emmys are still crazy about it," wrote the filmmaker
