Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s fabulous mom, had to set the record straight about an alleged comment that went viral quicker than a two-stepping grandma at a hoedown!
So, picture this: Dolly Parton, queen of rhinestones and country vibes, weighed in on Beyoncé’s glaring omission from the 2024 CMA Awards nominations. Apparently, Dolly’s comments made some think Tina was about to ride in on a unicorn and defend Bey’s honor with a lasso made of pure sass. But wait! Tina took to the comments like a hot knife through butter to declare, “This is fake! Not from me!”—like a mama bear protecting her cub.
The rumor mill churned out a spicy comment supposedly from Tina, where she passionately defended Beyoncé, saying, “Oh Ms. Dolly, we love you, but Bey did spend her WHOLE life working hard since she was 9! She’s got more country roots than a stubborn weed in a backyard!” The alleged post made it sound like Bey was the only one allowed to strut down the country music lane, while Tina tossed in a side-eye that could shatter glass. “She’s been putting in the work—like a squirrel preparing for winter—and nobody else gets told to stay in their lane to earn some shiny trophies!”
Dolly, meanwhile, was busy doing her best to keep the peace, explaining that she didn’t think it was fair to call it a snub, because let’s be honest, some artists have practically spent their entire lives in cowboy boots and 10-gallon hats.
But with Tina giving the ol’ “not today, Satan” vibe to those fake quotes, it looks like we can all take a deep breath and save the popcorn for another day!
