Rufus Wainwright 'sick' of Beyonce
Singer songwriter calls her 'formulaic'
Rufus Wainwright has slated Beyonce’s music.

Wainwright said: “I’m really sick of Beyonce. All of her songs are formulaic and produced in the basest way. There’s no enlightenment. Like most mainstream pop these days, it’s more of a scientific experiment than an artist experience.
“But hey, it’s your life, you know,” he told Spin magazine.
Wainwright is set to play the Other Stage at the on June 22.
He then plays the following UK shows:
Brighton Dome Theatre (June 24)
Oxford New Theatre (25)
Folkestone Leas Cliff (27)
