"Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9 has been threatened with legal action after banning professional photographers from her current world tour. The star has declined access for photographers during her &amp;#039;The Mrs Carter Show&amp;#039; tour after a series of unflattering shots from her Super Bowl performance in February went viral online.  However, she could be faced with being blacklisted by the National Press Photographers Association - along with 19 other organisations - if the ban is not lifted. The NPAA - who supply a large group of news outlets - have written a letter to Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9&amp;#039;s publicist urging them to remove the ban, reports Yahoo! They argue that although they recognise the publicist&amp;#039;s desire to retain control of Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9&amp;#039;s image, lifting the ban will help her in the long run.  &amp;quot;Ending the ban is more likely to result in publication of fair, objective and mutually beneficial photographs that serve your interests and ours,&amp;quot; NPAA general council Mickey Osterreicher wrote. He used a recent unflattering picture of Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9 taken by a fan and then published by the Manchester Evening News as an example of how the media are purposefully finding the images due to the ban. Meanwhile, Beyonc\u00C3\u00A9 has apologised to fans via a hand-written letter after she was forced to cancel a show in Belgium earlier this week.
