Beyonce/Columbia pic

THEY'LL DRINK TO THAT (UPDATE): Columbia’s Beyoncé is joined, in this exuberant pic, by label chief Rob Stringer, President Ashley Newton, EVP/GM Joel Klaiman and teams at her recent Met Life show. “Performances like tonight’s concert testify to the extraordinary emotional power of music, its ability to dissolve all barriers and unite humanity on the plane of pure feeling,” Stringer declared. “Joel, settle the bar tab, will you?” Rob didn't actually say any of this, but it kinda sounds a little like him, dunnit? No? Oh, all right, then. Later, there was a sneak attack on the deli platter. (7/15a)
