Having performed on stage in front of thousands before, Stapleton understands the dedication and sacrifice that goes into touring. But nothing could prepare him for watching Beyoncé perform in Atlanta. Attending the concert with his wife, Morgane, the country singer admitted to being shocked by how big the show was. He told GQ, “It’s a big show. You know, there’s dancers and explosions, all those things, but at the core of it it’s just her singing her *** off.”

Even Morgane was stunned by the level of showmanship that goes into each concert. Shocked with how Beyoncé juggles both singing and dancing for such long periods of time, Stapleton praised the singer for how she timed the show. “She was conserving energy. You could see when she would recharge—be singing and not doing all the energy stuff, and then go back to doing the high-energy stuff.”
