Despite a cryptic message on Instagram thats suggested she had “good hair,” Rachel Roy says that she is NOT the “Becky” that Beyonce was referring to in Lemonade.
“I want to put the speculation and rumors to rest. My Instagram post was meant to be fun and lighthearted, it was misunderstood as something other than that,” Rachel says in a statement. “There is no validity to the idea that the song references me personally. There is no truth to the rumors.”
Rachel’s original post read: “Good hair don’t care, but we will take good lighting, for selfies, or self truths, always. Live in the light #nodramaqueens.” Was the ‘good hair’ post sheer coincidence or was it a jab at Beyonce’s new track, “Sorry” in which Bey says, “He only wants me when I’m not there. He better call Becky with the good hair.” We may not know for sure, but the timing was definitely bad. Especially since the original phrase is “LONG hair, don’t care” and makes no mention of GOOD hair. Either way, Rachel definitely wasn’t ready for the Hive’s wrath.
“Consequently, online haters have targeted me and my daughters in a hurtful and scary manner, including physical threats,” she said. “As a mother – and I know many mothers would agree – I feel that bullying in any form is harmful and unacceptable. I would hope that the media sees the real issue here – the issue of cyber bullying – and how it should not be tolerated by anyone.“
Maybe Rachel should take a social media break until things calm down.
