An organization in Atlanta,Georgia have founded a church called "The National Church of Bey" and they practice the religion Beyism (based on Beyoncé Knowles).They say they rather worship Beyonce than an invincible spirit(God)
The church’s founder, Pauline John Andrews, recently stated,
“We are very disappointed in the failure of the public to recognize the existence of a divine Deity walking among them. Deity’s often walk the Earth in their flesh form. Beyoncé will transcend back to the spirit once her work here on Mother Earth has been completed.”As our congregation continues to swell, we ask that you consider what is more real; an invisible spirit on high, or a walking, talking, breathing Goddess who shows you her true form daily? Beyoncé’s spirit is entrancing. We know that she was sent to this place to spread love, peace, and joy … Open your mind to new possibilities and you will see, just as we did, that Bey is a true higher power

I'm surprised this hasn't happened before as much as singers/actors are worshiped on a daily basis.
This world is on the fast track to a real "Idiocracy"

She's an Idol, If they think Beyoncé created the Universe, good luck to them.
A person screaming they are God incarnate or something would be ignored..but a person singing about love and joy while hitting the top 10 would get others thinking like that.
Stealth messaging.
The more I consider it, the more I like the idea..

Sounds about right.
Kanye West is a man who has always been surrounded by messianic words and imagery, from his Yeezus nickname to album track I Am A God and recruitment of a fake Jesus on his most recent tour. Well now he has his very own religion, in as much as a hastily cobbled-together website can be considered a religion.

The Deity is displeased.
If we're going for fictional Deities,/Goddesses my money would be on. . .

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.
Looks like comedy/parody/satire to me in the same vein as Discordianism and Church of the Sub Genius. It's really amazing how much time and effort people devote to things like that, but keeps them from wasting time with the TV I guess.
Or learning Klingon or writing haikus or something.
