Bloody Bey-hive: Beyonce fans 'cut their wrists and ears' to 'honor' singer's bloody wardrobe malfunction
The infamous 'wardrobe malfunction' that saw Beyonce's earring apparently ripped out and her ear bleeding appears to have caused a wave of imitators online.
Within minutes of the accident, after which the singer performed her show with a bleeding left earlobe, #cutforbeyonce was trending on Twitter.
Since then several fans have claimed to mutilate themselves to show respect to their 'Queen Bey' - and they've posted the pictures to prove it.
The singer suffered the injury during her performance at Saturday's TIDAL X 1015 show in Brooklyn after one of her earrings was accidentally ripped out.
But while Beyonce merely suffered a small cut on her ear that left a trickle of blood down her neck, some of her fans have performed more severe forms of self-mutilation.
'If the queen bleeds the hive must unify and leak our blood to restore her spirits. Beyhive we must #CutForBeyonce,' wrote @charmonille, posting a picture of a wrist with a single cut down it.
