Some of Beyonce‘s staunchest fans, affectionately called #Beyhive, may think her latest album ‘Renaissance’ is perfect as it is, but the project – which was released July 29 – has undergone a few edits since due to some headline-grabbing drama.
Just a day after the diva took to press to announce she would remove the offensive term ‘sp*zzing’ from the album’s track ‘Heated’ (as we reported here), reports began circulating she took out a Kelis sample from the housed tune ‘Energy’ due to accusations of including it without permission.
But while some critics continue to review ‘Renaissance’ with a fine-toothed comb for more suggested updates, disgraced White House intern Monica Lewinsky is going back a little further in Bey’s catalog to render her suggestion.
See what we mean inside:
‘Partition’ may remain a fan favorite from Bey’s chart-topping 2013 self-titled album nearly 10 years after its unveiling, but there’s one who doesn’t exactly have it atop her playlist: Monica Lewinsky.
Lewinsky, whose claim to fame remains an entanglement she engaged in with former president Bill Clinton in the late 90’s, was referenced in the song when the music megastar sang: “He popped all my buttons, and he ripped my blouse/ He Monica Lewinsky-ed all on my gown.”
In the past Monica argued that since Clinton is the one who ejaculated on her dress the lyric should actually be, “Bill Clinton’d all on my gown.” She reiterated the argument Monday (August 1) when she took to Twitter amid Bey’s ‘ableist’ drama to say:
Lewinsky later admitted that she never reached out to Beyoncé or her camp about the lyric, but she has written published articles about it.
As of time reported, Bey nor any of her reps have responded to the request.
Why all these ppl coming at beyonce? It might be time for her to start interacting a bit more with the general public & remind ppl she’s likeable & personable again. Something weird is going on..
it’s not ‘weird’ the minute she got political with Flawless and then Formation then she became a target. I don’t think that’s Monica’s direct intention though but yeah the moment she joined this arena of speaking her mind publicly there was gonna be backlash.
The powers that be know enough ppl dislike Beyoncé and will therefore “be in favor” of the censorship.
@Paulo
Correct! Beyoncé is the perfect candidate due to her recent political stance.
why she even talk about that she is not right with everthing she does
she is not GOD
Yes, very that. The one issue I have had over Beyonce in the last nine years is the lack of interaction. No interviews, social media limited to photography and canned statements. The music is great, but she’s forgotten to show us a human being behind it all.
Besides that, Monica’s tired. She was happy to have an extra three seconds of fame in 2013, now she’s jumping on the censor it bandwagon 🙄
LOL 😂 ALL OF YOU ARE WRONG!
Beyonce is a VIRGO ♍️
Don’t think for a second that this isn’t all in her plan. To rile the industry and haters up.
To get some controversy and get people talking about the details surrounding the album.
It all makes for a critically acclaimed era.
She wants to be talked about, and her choice NOT TO SPEAK is specifically a PR move. And a smart one.
No comment is the BEST COMMENT 🤐
🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
lol come on now Ms Lewinsky it’s been nine whole years. I do agree with her reasoning in the one article of hers I read about it but I don’t think that entitles a lyric change
Good the days of kissing Beyoncé ass are over her fake ass plays innocent but she knows what she’s doing fake overrated ass
If anything…it’s going to make more ppl buy the album. We are slowly heading toward a country of censorship. So don’t think it will end here sweetheart. This is only the beginning.
EXACTLY 🐝🐝🐝🐝
Nobody was thinking about her or partition smdh.
Partition should’ve been a number 1 smash
These comments….. some of y’all is straight delusional in these comments. Why do you seem to think that Beyonce owes you anything? She is focusing on the stuff that matters to HER…. like her three kids and her husband. She doesn’t owe you an interview, a performance, an article….. nothing. Live your life and let her do her. Operative word…. HER. Is she up in your comments asking why you keep a dirty house?
She is the one that told the world she was nutted on!!! Girl SHUTTHEEFUCKUP.
