If I were currently a middle-school student, my required science project would probably read something like this:
Question: Is there anyone in the world Beyonce doesn't inspire?
Hypothesis: No.
Evidence: If you've ever spent any time on social media, you know that every time the global superstar performs or makes any kind of announcement, she sparks an instant frenzy. She's even touched people that don't typically bother with Twitter, Instagram or other social platforms.
On Bill Simmons' podcast last week, Los Angeles Clippers star J.J. Redick revealed that the recently retired Kevin Garnett, who is now a consultant for the Clippers, said that Beyonce inspired Garnett to improve his conditioning.
"One time I saw her working out, and she was doing her dances and she was singing while she was doing her dancing," Garnett said to Redick. "So then I'm thinking to myself, maybe I should run and sing at the same time. So in the offseason, I would go to Malibu and I would go down to the beach, and when I run on the beach I would be like 'La la la la la la la la la,' while I'm running. So then, when I get on the court and I'm getting back on defense and I'm talking on defense, I don't get tired."
Conclusion: Beyonce inspires everyone.
