I don't think he meant it like that bc he LOVES Bey and always has her name as his user title but this was in poor taste and not very well thought-out.
I don't think it's so much about Bey being a monkey as it is about Harambe being a meme-deity with a cult following on the internet.
and to everyone in here laughing at this and passive-aggressively saying things like "I can't believe he's calling Bey a gorilla!1!" just know y'all are super transparent and the real racists in this whole thing.
