In a shocking turn of events, Beyoncé has come under fire from fans for wearing a shirt that called Native Americans ‘the enemies of peace’ in English. The pop superstar was spotted wearing the controversial shirt during a recent outing, and fans were quick to call her out on social media.
One fan tweeted, “I can’t believe Beyoncé would wear a shirt like that. It’s so disrespectful to Native Americans.” Another fan chimed in, saying, “I used to be a huge Beyoncé fan, but now I’m reconsidering my allegiance. This is just unacceptable.”
However, not everyone was quick to jump on the bandwagon of criticism. Beyoncé’s die-hard fans, known as the Beyhive, came to her defense, with one fan tweeting, “I’m sure Beyoncé didn’t mean any harm by wearing that shirt. She’s a queen and can do no wrong in my eyes.”
But the controversy didn’t end there. In a statement released by Beyoncé’s team, they explained that the shirt was actually a gift from a fan who misunderstood the English phrase. According to the statement, the fan thought the shirt said ‘the enemies of peas,’ as in the vegetable.
In a hilarious turn of events, the fan in question, who goes by the name of Pea Queen on social media, admitted to the mix-up in a series of tweets. “I can’t believe I gave Beyoncé a shirt with such a ridiculous phrase on it. I’m so embarrassed,” she wrote.
Despite the mix-up, Beyoncé has since apologized for any offense caused by the shirt and has vowed to be more careful in the future. In the meantime, the Beyhive is standing by their queen, ready to defend her against any and all criticism.
So, there you have it folks. Beyoncé may have made a fashion faux pas, but at least she’s owning up to it and learning from her mistakes. Let’s just hope she sticks to wearing shirts with more accurate phrases in the future!
