Beyoncé is above everything. She could steal the sun, take the credits of Macarena, release an album full of silence, vote for Trump, whatever. She is #uncancellable.

she is too big to fail, no one can't touch her

You wanna bet on that, babe? 

If she ever were to vote for Trump, I f.ucking pray her fanbase riots. The other s.hit is debatable, but she should never be allowed to come back after voting for him.

Also, the fact that you suggest she can't be cancelled for doing b.lackface while everyone else can - the delusion.  The hypocrisy is real and Exhale's got it bad. No one should be excused for doing b.lackface. I don't care if she was trying to be uplifting. All they had to do was hire an actual Nigerian model, not darken her skin.

I hope you know that I've never had a problem with you and I think for the most part, you're one of the good, rational Beyhive members. However, that jacket's f.ucked up, at least to me it is. She should not be excused for doing b.lackface. Absolutely no one should. It should be remembered as a racist concept only and never worn again.

@Roxxy here's the reply you were talking about.

BET has suspended a producer after a joke about Beyonce and Jay Z's daughter that aired Monday on the network's music video countdown show, 106 & Park.

Fired from what? What exactly am I fired from?   Also, I'm not necessarily attacking her. I just don't think some people should face repercussions for doing b.lackface while she doesn't. It's incredibly unjust and gross. No celebrity should get away with b.lackface. I'm sure you'll ignore what I'm saying though and hit me up with another gif or article or remark about her putting me "under the ocean" like the little peasant I am.

I was being sarcastic. The b. lackface is wrong of course. But did she mean to harm anyone with that? Does she uses that "gimmick" to make money rivers? Do you think she could be able to vote for Trump or that I was serious saying that? The picture is old and Beyoncé is a woman that is always learning, and I guess that's why she didn't used that again. How many of us used to think about something in a way and after seeing differents point of view we stepped back? Beyoncé isn't racist. She's a black icon and supports hundreds of people that are employed by her. Do you know her female band? Have you noticed that almost all of her dancers are black? Don't you think that everybody can make mistakes sometimes? Do you understand about forgiveness? If we have to cancel her, we'll have to cancel Disney, Britney, Michael Jackson, me, you, Jordan, everybody, because all of us can make and will make mistakes. More love.

Of course I know she's not racist, and yes I believe we all make mistakes and that we should forgive. No, I don't want to cancel her. I think cancel culture should be... well, cancelled.  But I don't want this to be swept under the rug either. If we follow by that ideology, then we have to do the same for everyone, including creepy racists like Shane Dawson. I understand the picture was old, but even when it first came out, it wasn't seen as a big deal to the GP. I don't think it should be like that.

But why couldn’t they just hire an actual dark-skinned, African model?

But she isn’t dark-skinned. Would you be okay with it if another light-skinned woman made herself dark-skinned?

she is black, why we need to focus on every little difference instead to embrace all the  big similarities?

can i have some clarifications? black face is discriminatory because was a way to make fun of black people but in this case she is celebrating her black ancestories (4 was an album inspired by Fela Kuti, an african singer), so why these thinks are judge on the same way?

MTE. She's clearly celebrating her heritage and there is zero malice. Scared I'll be cancelled for commenting on this cause I am a privileged white male but those are my thoughts anyhow. 

[princessmimi]

Why would she be accused of black face if she's black?

I will tell you something, I'm a Beyoncé fan since 2003, this picture was shot in 2011 and the first time I stopped to think about that was this Monday when I found out what colourism is. The situation at that time was really different, as a white man I would never understand what that kind of gest could mean to some people, surely thousands of people still don't know about colourism, even Beyoncé couldn't understand about that. She herself told in an interview that she never suffered racism. Maybe because of the tone of her skin, or maybe she lives in a bubble or she's very very lucky, because even I had suffered for not having the kind of hair that is considered to be "good". Lucky her, but the fact is that Beyoncé is fighting for equality for everybody and she must be exalted for that. The black people of my country once they get rich, they forget about the fight but she's still putting the prejudice on debate and representing women, black people, LGBTQIA+ community, forests, aliens, etc. I'm so grateful for having her, you can't even imagine.

for me the aim of an action is so important if i need to write a comment about it. She is black and she is celebrating the heritage of her ancestors, so why we need to make a problem about it?
