Blue Ivy, daughter of Beyonce and Jay Z was at The Wearable Gala October 22, 2022 in Los Angeles. There, she bid $80,000 on earrings that her grandmother Tina Knowles wore, and which actually belonged to Beyonce. Blue Ivy was not the highest bidder that night, but one Tik Toker was pissed at Beyonce and called her a “bad mother.”

For the record, it takes more than that to qualify someone as a bad mother, so the Tik Toker should have a seat.

Her explanation is that with world hunger and mass inflation happening, teaching her children to spend frivolously just because they have it, is irresponsible.

Don’t worry. The Beyhive came for her along with other Tik Tokers. Overall, they reminded the woman,

“That is Beyonce’s money. Her and Jay Z’s. They earned it. If I was rich as they are, I would spoil the mess out of my kids too.”
