Shoutout to the Yoncé fans who spend more time shading Blue Ivy than they do supporting her mother Beyoncé.
The BET show “106 & Park” presented what they thought was a comical segment on the top six things Blue Ivy thought about at the MTV VMAs, where her mother performed this year to celebrate receiving the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award. Chris Brown’s girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, who is chasing a man with not even half the net worth of Blue Ivy, appeared on the show and imitated Blue Ivy, saying, “I really did wake up like this — because my parents never comb my hair.”
She’s two, yet here we are, a grown woman, making jabs at a toddler.
Later, Tran had the audacity to tweet that she loves Beyoncé.
No.
You are not a Beyoncé fan if you pride yourself in shading Blue because in reality, you dissing Blue’s hair is not an attack on Blue but an attack on Beyoncé’s parenting skills.
I have never seen a larger number of insecure women who feel the need to go in on the way a two-year-old wears her hair.
Why does Beyoncé need advice from you on how to do her daughter’s hair?
She is Beyoncé. She is Queen.
Yeah, Blue Ivy has a little kink in her hair, and I am sure many of you do, too, hence the perm or weave or whatever various ways you might choose to alter your natural hair.
There was a petition with 5,639 signatures asking Beyoncé to “take care” of Blue’s hair.
So how would supporters of the petition like her to “take care of it?” Perm it? Yank and pull on it, so Blue can be edgeless like many of your children? Many people turn up their noses when they see black women of all ages wear their natural kinks and curls, and too often, they seem to forget that under those preferred chemicals and bundles, there is a little Blue Ivy in most of us.
Blue Ivy is two. Her entire life she has been subject to commentary that her being natural is not good enough.
She needs to make adjustments to her texture of hair, so she can be pretty enough, because having perm in your head is what makes you pretty enough, right?
And I am sure that all of you dimes out there criticizing the spawn of Beyoncé definitely make Beyoncé herself look like Chucky.
Outside of the fact that you believe the child needs a perm, let’s just address the obvious. Blue is Beyonce’s daughter. In case you did not know, Yoncé is flawless, so no matter how ugly you think Blue’s hair is, she still shares Beyonce’s chromosomes, making her flawless as well.
Flawlessness is genetic, and Beyoncé empowers so many women into believing that it is also contagious in a world that tries to convince us that we have to look a certain way to be pretty.
Unfortunately, saltiness is most definitely contagious, too, so you should probably get that in check because you have to be seriously salty to feel the need to constantly shade a two year old.
Are you mad that she can leave the house with her head in a “questionable” manner, and still be more financially secure than you will ever be in your lifetime? Or nah?
Let Blue be great.
And when you feel like you want to get out on Blue’s head again, please remember what the holy book of Beyhive says: “Why look at the naps in your sister’s head, when you don’t have edges in your own?” Reference Blue Ivy 4:44 (Queen B Version)
