Ok so let me ask you this.
When Beyonce's race is brought up by haters and they say she hates being black
And that she bleaches her skin
Is that also an issue?

[KB.]

Lady GaGa is more successful than Beyonce

[Mr.Marvelous]

Yes, like who da **** cares if Beyoncé was the first black person with a blonde curly weave and 12 inch heels dancing on a stage with 10 backup dancers and 3 backup singers to a song 'written' by 'her'.

It's a proven fact that Beyonce and Rihanna have to work twice as hard as their contemporaries to have success. Same with Janet or any other black artist that crosses over. It's a shame, but race has always been a factor. I just don't care either way because music shouldn't have a color.

I agree wholeheartedly I don't bring up QUEEN'S skin complexion because she's slaying every racial class but it is fact that Janet Beyonce and Rihanna (as others) have to work twice as hard, making their achievments twice as impressive.

Yall girls need to stand together and keep yall eye on that prize!

Are you saying cause Rihanna isn't a good performer she's not thought of as a black woman?

No. Let me set this straight.

1. I never said Robyn wasn't Black. She obviously is.

2. By this post, I'm saying we think of Beyoncé first when we think of famous, powerful Black women. 'quintessential performer' meant Beyoncé.

3. If Rihanna was the first Black woman to do something, I applaud her and her stans SHOULD assert how important that is.

Hold Up. These ignorant mother****ers have NERVE How dare they try to demean the Beyonce stans when they bring up race more than them...

But you have to appreciate the irony right now, though. The original poster is black, yet the
thread is littered with "they're racists" comments and full of members playing the
race card in a thread ABOUT members playing the race card. Pure comedy.

"Yeah, let me prove how we don't play the race card, by playing this race card right quick."

You gotta admit that's pretty ****in' funny.

Give me her vogue covers from 2 different countries in the same year.

Not members of the Beyhive trying to divert the attention to the Navy and discrediting Rihanna when it's their actions that made this thread possible

[Sinister]

wasn't everyone calling Beyonce white and saying she bleached her skin and all this other stuff????

Don't cry wolf because you're being hypocritical

My point is that Beyonce stans bring up her race excessively while we only do it when it's significant. There's nothing wrong with saying Beyonce is the first black whatever but mentioning it randomly by saying "_____ is even more impressive because of her race" is over the top.

That's the thing. This thread wasn't brought up because a Beyonce stan was bringing it up in regards to Beyonce. My comment in the Janet vs. Britney thread is what started this thread. The only time Beyonce's race is brought up is in the same instances that Rihanna's are. Because it is significant and should be celebrated and talked about. Or in the ignorant manner of someone bringing up how "light she is" or "blond her hair is". I don't understand this CONSTANT attack of the BeyHive based off of individual members opinions.

We dont need to. This is 2012. People will never forget about racism and slavery but that doesnt mean we have to throw it out there every chance we get to prove a point.

This proves my point.

N Beyonce benefits from it on the flip side herself. She loves to push her creole heritage down people's throat. Also if Bey wasn't light skinned with euro features she wouldn't be as successful as she is today. While she is talented. Her beauty plays an important part of her success. It's no coincidence that the top female entertainers are light skinned

Now you know damn well what this was in relating to, the comments saying Britney stans are racist in relation to Beyonce and her achievements. So it's racist to question Beyonce's achievements as a black woman, but not Britney as a white woman and then relay her accolades on her being white?

I am black, and I legitimately understand when their is an achievement that is worth admiring. But consistently bringing up her race and using it elevate her achievements as something more, than someone who achieved just as much if not more as a white person, is inherently racism in the same vein

And then having some posters, who are arguing in Beyonce's favor then go on to say Rihanna's achievements are not the same..when she is black herself, is blatant bias and prejudice. Is it because she isn't African American?
