Beyonce’s team checked R&B singer Erykah Badu for accusing the “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer for copying her signature hairstyle.
Erykah, 53, accused Beyonce, 42, of jacking her beaded braids style on the alternate cover of Bey’s upcoming country-themed album, Act II: Cowboy Carter.
Erykah begged Jay Z for help after the BeyHive swarmed her X/Twitter timeline.
According to Rhymeswithsnitch, Beyonce’s publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, and her Parkwood Entertainment Senior VP, Justina Omokhua, took the rare step of checking Erykah publicly.
Justina used lyrics from Erykah’s hit song “Call Tyrone” to chastise her and warn her to contact someone besides Jay Z for help.
And Yvette shared a collage of Beyonce wearing braided wigs with beads over the years. (see below).
Last week, Beyonce revealed the cover art for Act II: Cowboy Carter, the follow-up to her Renaissance album.
On the cover, Beyonce is sitting on a pale horse while wearing patriotic red, white and blue colors and holding the American flag.
This week Beyonce revealed the alternate cover for the vinyl Cowboy Carter album. She is nude except for a beaded braids wig and a red, white and blue sash featuring the words “ACT II: BEYINCE”.
