We have to have a race. Beyonce is Black in America and no amount of airbrushing is going to change that. It's useless.

LOL, I'm sorry but no black people have platinum blonde hair and bleached skin like Beyonce. Her stans can argue til the cows come home that black people come in all shades (which I'm well aware of) but she has done a lot to look almost Barbie-like. I mean, isn't Solange the one who actually bleached her own baby? Between the lightening creams, the blonde dye and the plastic surgery, Bee is really gunning for this ~racially ambiguous~ image but it's really just alienating a lot of people from her.
