And if you’re a black woman, heaven help your ass. I find Beyonce’s black-girl-magic-as-money-making machine schtick to be very smart. And I understand it, kind of. I guess what I’m saying is that I’m sad that Beyonce is so needed for black women to feel good/pretty/feminine about themselves. It’s embarrassing to me.…

It’s totally wrong to sleep with an ostensibly monogamous married person and I would never. And if they know the person’s married, I’m side-eyeing anyone who does it pretty hard.

She just wants to make brunch!

No, because it isn’t just about her new album. Every single album she has released for the past six years, maybe more, has had at least one song dedicated to her husbands unfaithfulness. Yes, art is a way to release pain, but after all the years doesn’t she have anything else in her life to influence her art? And like…

I agree with you. Not sure what Rachel gets out of it since I don't find jay cute in the least but if she had discreet fun with him who cares? It's him who should answer to his spouse, and him who should have a tarnished reputation. Having a side chick is way more dubious than being one.

Rachael Ray, none of this is your fault, but you should hide.

You really think there are people clowning Jay-Z on social media. I’m sure the people that handle his social media is busy as hell.

Oh god she’s one of THOSE. I had the misfortune of having to deal with one of those - “I respect your family sooooooo much, and you yelling at me about sleeping with your man was just totally unacceptable” nose-in-the-air insincere dumb nightmare narcissists (and since she’s stalked me on Jez before - hey girl!).…

“Political?” People need to stop acting like she’s Nina Simone or Paul Robeson cause she ain’t. She’s part of the establishment and happily supports it. Just cause she indirectly referenced The Panthers doesn’t mean she’s down with the cause.

The criticism of Beyonce that does exist has always struck me as mostly uninformed and involves around what she wears. I’ve never once found her to not anything totally tasteful and put-together even when clad in attire these particular naysayers deem “too provocative for a feminist.” I don’t get that, but…

That’s probably Tungsten Carbide, not actually Tungsten. Carbides are harder than almost anything else, lower than diamond, but not much. But they are fantastically brittle. It makes sense they would fracture easily in the form of a ring. Tungsten Carbide apparently has a hexagonal crystal structure so there aren’t…

Absolutely! I should have thought of lab-grown diamonds earlier. Thank you for reminding me.

Or buy a tiger's eye. You know...that stone that actually is scarcer than diamonds, but wasn't pretty enough for De Beers?

Just want to put this out there for anyone buying a ring. I’m a diamond grader with 6 years in the industry and the clarity everyone should be buying should be around the SI1-SI2 range. The inclusions will be small enough not to be noticable but big enough to affect the value.

If you like diamonds, lab-grown ones are an option. And they’re a little less expensive, too.

What do you have to do to a piece of jewelry in order for it to be a noticeable downgrade from something you bought at Kay jewelers? Were they replacing the stones with bottle caps?

If I buy my gal a ring for $21k (AAAAACK), she'd better be able to summon Captain Planet with that thing.

So, you’re saying you don’t find goat tits attractive? I mean, that’s what I’m hearing you say. #goatinternetoutrage

I’m twice your age and would like to think I could have rocked that thing way back when. Not now though! And not outside of my bedroom!

Whoa, how’s about you check your species privilege
