In this age, celebrity transformations are a huge thing. And accompanied with it are controversies. While fitness transformations largely point toward the positive direction, any other shocking physical alterations aren’t welcomed by their fans. Recently, a post is going viral on the internet that puts popstar queen Beyonce in such a light.
Queen Bey was compared with her past looks to that of her present. Now donning a blonde-haired look, fans were displeased by the explicit change in her appearance over time. The collation of her pictures sparked a whole roast-fest in the comments, critiquing the eminent star for her choices.
Beyonce irks fans with her look
A picture featuring Beyonce in her different eras was collated and shared on Twitter by a user pondering over the singer’s drastically changed appearance. The first picture displayed the 42-year-old star in her usual skin, probably when she was younger. Whereas, the other picture captured Beyonce donning blonde hair, and a black dress. The aspect that sparked all the rage was her white-appearing skin.
This characteristic of the picture ignited conversations about cultural appropriation, and Michael Jackson. Judging simply from that aspect could be misleading since the light exposure in cameras oftentimes lightens the subject’s appearance. The caption of the post read,
“Would someone please explain to me what happened to Beyonce…?”

More so, the picture could be edited to raise doubts or create controversies about the pop star whose tour film, Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé premiered on 1st December. Regardless, the fans were not convinced and flooded the comments with brutal insights.
Fans leave no room for mercy
The Twitter update is garnering much attention from several netizens, most disturbed by her complexion. The picture greatly raises doubts on the otherwise bold Beyonce’s moralities. Treatments like skin bleaching, hormones, and money entered the discussion, with fans hinting these aspects could have meddled with her choices. Here are some of the reactions from fans:
I'm offended by her. She's sporting White Face.

Skin bleaching. But if you call it out her mom will insult you

I like how it’s considered racist when you ask questions 🙄

Culturally appropriated white skin.

Michael Jackson syndrome

Lighting, make up, photoshopping, camera choice, and photographing exterior shot versus interior shot, can make a HUGE difference in skin tones.

While clarification is still due on the authenticity of the image, fans seem to have already policed Beyonce.
