Jim Morrison's famous quote, "Whoever controls the media controls the mind," reportedly appeared on stage during Beyoncé's "Renaissance" tour. But is the call coming from inside the house? Some users seem to think so.

In an ironic twist, one of the most influential singers in the world shared an uncomfortable truth on stage. This week, fans reportedly captured a Jim Morrison quote, “WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA, CONTROLS THE MIND,” during Beyoncé's "Renaissance" tour. Here's how the internet is reacting.

"Ye been saying this for years yall just hear what u want to hear from who you wanna hear it from," writes @saberisbatman.

@peachesnocreams says, "She's not beating the illuminati allegations I fear."

"Funny y’all think shes actually on your side when this is just revelation of the method," adds @defdryx.

Queen B and her husband, Jay-Z, have faced endless theories about their marriage throughout their career. The "Empire State Of Mind" rapper frequently holds his hands up in a triangle shape, leading many to believe it's a nod to the Illuminati. This, of course, is just one of many examples.

Last year, the "Halo" singer released her seventh album, Renaissance. Audience members believe it contained hidden messages that predict the apocalypse. In 2020 (yes, during the pandemic), Beyoncé sat atop a white horse in the Black Is King film. In 2022, she posed again with a black horse for Harper’s Bazaar.

The theory is explained best by Wired writer Amos Barshad. "It’s a simple enough equation: Beyoncé. Horses," he states. "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—one riding a white horse, one a red one, one a black one, and one a pale one. Pestilence, War, Famine, and Death. When they show up, it means our earthly world is over."

While many celebrities have yet to discredit the existence of the secret society, Jeffree Star shockingly came out in late December 2022 to claim that he "escaped" the group.

"What a crazy fucking year… I escaped the illuminati in 2021 and they still haven’t killed me. Every day I wake up grateful," he tweeted.

"In 2020 I was going to expose everything…" Star added. "In a matter of days, the Hollywood elite tried to ruin my entire career, villainize me and flooded the news with lies to discredit me. If you guys only knew the truth about what they are doing to Britney & Kayne."
