Jay-Z and Beyonce were recently featured in Tiffany & Co.'s new ad campaign that proved even two prominent, black influencers can't escape the wrath of woke leftists.
So, who had "white supremacy" on their bingo card for this week?
The ABOUT LOVE campaign by Tiffany & Co. shows intimate photos of the superstar couple where Beyonce is channeling Audrey Hepburn with a black "Breakfast at Tiffany's" dress paired with the iconic Tiffany Yellow Diamond.
At first, you may be thinking, "Wow, such class! How beautiful!"
But you are wrong. And probably a white supremacist.
Because, don't you know, the yellow diamond necklace reflects "an ugly truth and an unfinished story of white supremacy and colonialism that is difficult to ignore," at least, according to opinion writer, Susanne Ramirez de Arellano.
For her latest social justice fight, she wrote an opinion piece for NBC shaming Beyonce for wearing the beautiful diamond necklace.
"The problem is the backstory of the yellow Tiffany diamond. Found in the Kimberley diamond mines in South Africa (under British rule) in 1877 as a 287.42 carat rough stone, it was later purchased by Charles Lewis Tiffany in 1878 for $18,000. Its estimated worth today is $30 million," Susanne wrote.
Although the U.N. does not consider this iconic gem to be a blood diamond that doesn't stop Susanne from claiming that it is because she believes that the definition should be expanded.
Beyonce is the first black woman to wear the famous necklace, and it was worn by only three women before her– which seems like a good thing and sounds like another step forward.
But, nooope, not good enough. The Woke Monster must have her head.
Tiffany & Co. also made a statement to continue to support the underrepresented communities and pledged $2 million in scholarships and internship programs for black colleges and universities.
And again, Not 👏 Good 👏 Enough 👏 Not for the ultra-woke.
"I was left wondering what Tiffany and the Carters are trying to sell. Is it aspiration? Are they implying that everyone — no matter our color or background — aspires to look like Audrey Hepburn from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and wear white colonial diamonds, no matter where they came from or what they represent? Do they want us to simply ignore the history of colonialism, racism…"
With the online backlash, a source close to Beyonce claimed the singer "is disappointed and angry that she wasn't made aware of the questions about its history."
MEANWHILE, Beyonce's mother, Tina Knowles, defended her daughter and called critics "righteous activists."
There is no pleasing the woke activists. Not even the Queen Bee can escape that monster.
