Yes, I know Saint Bey can do no wrong. I know Bey has a perfect life, but there were times when the bootylicious diva has led us astray. Here are six times when she gave us bad advice.
1. She tried to make you lose your man
“Ladies leave your man at home, the club is full of ballers and their pockets full-grown.”
How were you going to stay in your relationship if you did that? She’s saying forget about your loving man because there’s other men with aged pockets. Pass, and keep your man.
2. She gave false hope to side-chicks
“If you leave her, I’ll leave him. We will pack our bags, don’t say a word…”
More bad advice. Do you really think he is leaving her? Either way, this support of this side-chick-turned-wifey dream could give false hope to many lurking on the sidelines.
3. She told you it was OK to put up with annoying men
“When I first met you, you were cool. But it was game, you had me fooled cause 20 minutes after I gave you my number you already had my mailbox full.”
So, not only were all the warning signs there 20 minutes in, but she continued to date him to the point that she wanted to turn off her e-mail service and break her lease.
Nowhere in this song does she mention she’s breaking up with him — just that he’s annoying beyond measure. Do better than this ladies!
4. She told y’all to squad up on your man
“Tell the truth, who you with? How would you like it if I came over with my clique?”
I wonder how many women were arrested for showing up to their partners homes “with their clique” after this song was released. I know Bey has a hold on her fans, but let’s be clear, the beyhive doesn’t provide bail money.
5. She said it’s cool for rich people to act a fool because of their wealth
“Of course sometimes sh*t goes down when there’s a billion dollars on the elevator.”
Girl, No. Neither a billion dollars nor one dollar is a reason for your family to brawl anywhere.
6. She said it’s okay to take scraps from certain men
“I was cool with no commitment, wait let me take that back it was you so I was with it.”
Many of us might have faced this problem and your best bet is to run… away from anybody who thinks you deserve less than what you’re worth.
Now if you have been following the poor advice you might be here…
Beyoncé usually gets right but when she gets it wrong… it’s pretty bad.
