Fans Blast Beyonce On Twitter After Cropping Kelly Rowland Out Of Photo With Aaliyah

Beyonce is receiving some
serious blast on Twitter and
beyond after she cropped Kelly
Rowland out of a photograph
that the pair had once taken
with the late singer Aaliyah.
Beyonce was accused of
cropping out an image of Kelly
Rowland in a photograph with
Aaliyah.
Aaliyah died 12 years ago in a
plane crash, but people like
Beyonce and Rowland honored
her memory on their social
media pages on her recent Jan
16 birthday. While Rowland
included both Beyonce and
Aaliyah in her Instagram image,
Beyonce cut her friend out of
the image.
After looking at both images, a
number of people took to
Twitter to react.
“Kelly posts pic of Aaliyah,
Beyonce sees pic, crops Kelly
out and posts it,” one person
noticed.
Another said, “Beyonce childish
(SIC).”
F.Y.E music store even got in on
the action with its official twitter
page writing, “Way harsh, Bey!
Our Royal Beyness committed
some serious #TBT theft &
crop.”
This is not the first time that
Beyonce has been accused of
“shading” Rowland.
Earlier this month an old video
surfaced on the video sharing
website Vine, where each of the
four original Destiny’s Child
group members which include
LaTavia Roberson and LeToya
Luckett introduce themselves.
When Rowland introduced
herself, it seemed a young
Beyonce was not happy with her
statement.
“I’m the second lead vocalist of
the group,” Rowland said in the
old video, which has been
circulating on Twitter and Vine
without a specific date.
Beyonce’s reaction to the
statement was a pointed look in
Rowland’s direction and a well
timed cough. People on Twitter
could not resist commenting on
the video, saying that Beyonce
“shaded” Rowland in the video
clip.
“Beyonce’s reaction when Kelly
calls herself the ‘second lead
vocalist’ of DC is legendary
shade,” one person tweeted.
Rowland has previously
expressed her own annoyance
about people comparing her to
Beyonce who she remains close
friends with. The singer said she
thinks it is insane when people
try to hold her to the same
standard as Beyonce.
“The world would be boring if
we all did the same thing over
and over again. And I don’t want
to be on her (Beyonce’s) level,”
Rowland said on the nationally
syndicated Russ Parr Morning
Show last year. “I want my own.
And Michelle wants her own.
When people compare, it’s just
so insane to me.”
