Now that may not seem to be an important headline. Who am I kidding? Its not really important and its a bit stale but it does call on one to reason. If u want to see the real story, then you are at the wrong place. I don't do news. But if you want to hear my opinion then, you are at the right place. It was featured on LIB blog and here' the link.
Anyways back to the matter at hand. If u read some of the tweets that showed the people lambasting the first lady of the world for calling Bey a role model you would see that those people are quite biased. Now Bey nay not be the classical example of a role model but she's one of the few celebrities i know who has her shit together. A lot of other celebrities could learn a lesson or two from her. I hardly hear anything crazy about her in the gossip columns(and believe me i know a lot of them). Her marriage seems(note i said seems) to be going strong. She has a kid who she adores and seems to be growing up normally. Her work is a different aspect of her life and her home is also a different part. She's not releasing raunchy photos of herself for fun like some other people in the industry.. I didn't mention names o.
Also, just because she dances on stage, sometimes it gets a bit appalling doesn't totally mean that that's the way her whole life runs. It's just like saying a person who usually acts the character of a thief in a movie is a thief in real life or someone who rights erotica novels is a sex addict. That would be tantamount to a fallacy; fallacy of hasty generalization. Its their job. Stop hating on someone for doing their job. No one criticizes anyone for taking out garbage as a means of earning a living saying "its disgusting", do they? Or does anyone complain when you carry out your job of wiping old people's messes in homes for the elderly to pay your rent? So give her a break.
So if The lady of the white house calls Beyonce a role model let's live it at that. Lets not forget this is the first lady of the white house and she is one smart woman. Also everyone has a freedom of speech so stop hating people. She may not be your role model but she matters a lot to people back in her home town and i think y'all should respect that.
And abeg o she's not my family member neither is she my townswoman nor is she paying me for this because that's what i'm expecting in response to this post. I am just viewing it from the other side of the coin which most of us usually fail to do. Think about it..
Later Guys.. XOXO
