God, this is so dumb. She is not queen or bae or whatever the fuck people say. She literally makes millions of dollars and she is shaming a guy trying to make a living on the side of the road. It’s not cute. It’s not cool.

“Look at me! Look at how oppressed I am! Am I black, now? *SPRAY TANS*”

Not a race issue.

This link is an amazing gift, thank you!

I agree with everything you’ve said.

If it means they’ll stop drooling over people and calling them “queen” and “my new BFF, I’m all for it. That kind of false obsequioussness turns my stomach.

Natural? That’s cute.

It’s difficult as an internet stranger to give moral support, but if it means anything, you stand out among the most intelligent and funny posters across the Gawker network. I shouldn’t “like” anybody here, and yet you’re on the list. I shouldn’t be particularly concerned about anybody I don’t know who posts here, and…

Call me crazy but I think all adults (and that includes both Andy Cohen and Kara Brown) should stay out of a social media war between two teenaged girls.

That’s all fine and good, but we are talking about a Hollywood divorce, in which everything is carefully choreographed and micromanaged. I have no doubt that this is extremely difficult for both of them, and there is a great deal of emotion involved in removing or not removing their rings. However, I still strongly…

Where is the “sponsored”/”commerce” tag please?

I can handle all kinds of quirks but if you are rude to people in the service industry I instantly dislike you.

Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to under budgeted IT departments.

I think it’s also the complicating factor of the fact that white women have historically been viewed in sex objects in radically different ways than black women have historically been viewed as sex objects. So while being a certain kind of aspirational sex object is something that can feel extremely regressive for…

Wow. I hardly know what to say to this. As a white person I know I’m never going to know all the shit that people of color have to wade through in order to just survive on a daily basis but this is just fucking heartbreaking and I am so sorry that this is how you have to react/think/behave just to live in this…

“Why do these groups of people find such empowerment in her music? And can something like mainstream pop culture ever lead to progressive social change?”

Oh, for criminy’s sake, nobody’s erasing anybody’s existence. Not everything is a battle. Especially when the person you’re griping at is only an inch shy of 6 feet herself.

I’m 5’6 and felt uncomfortably round at a size 8. I’m not referred to as “skinny” unless I’m 00-4. You’re right; obviously people carry their weight differently. But I think it’s an unfortunate mindset to think of a size 8 as “skinny” when, especially in vanity sizing, a size 2-6 generally meets a “healthy” BMI…

Preach girl. That got me as well. No boy from the Pennsatucky area knows how to respect a woman. Let alone how to make her come.
