Refinery29 Writer Blasted For Beyoncé Post
A writer and the website she works for is currently getting the BUSINESS on social media.
Rebecca Farley of Refinery29 posted a story today on Beyoncé’s pregnancy announcement titled “Beyoncé’s Pregnancy Announcement Was Wildly Tacky — & I’m Okay With That.”
In the story, Rebecca actually praised King Bey for the “tacky” and garish announcement of her twins, because she’s a lover of tackiness herself…
“But it seems that no one, aside from a few brave souls on social media, wants to admit the truth: The pictures are tacky.
Hear me out.
Merriam-Webster defines “tacky” as “not having or exhibiting good taste.” A few synonyms are kitschy, vulgar, garish, and gaudy. In the initial photo, Beyoncé wears a burgundy Agent Provocateur brassiere, a pair of silky blue briefs, and what looks like the mosquito net I draped over my childhood bed. (Sorry, whatever, it’s a veil, right?)
[…]
This is the part where I admit to being tacky. I love tacky.”
but Becky’s click-baity headline STILL got her stung to oblivion.

@lgfrtsfarley @radioheadass yo becs, what kinda white privilege does it take to consider photos that honor Yoruba heritage tacky?

Lol, first it was "Beyoncé never showed her belly, she faked her pregnancy"
Now it's "these photos are tacky, she's so self centred" pic.twitter.com/Z9RVhydq2Q
