The Beyhive sent the troops in on Roy. She promptly deleted the photo and made her Instagram private.
However, some fans were confused. They wrongly assumed "Roy" was just a typo, thinking the real Becky was talk show host and famous chef Rachael Ray. Yes, we're actually serious.
Fans flocked to Ray's Instagram, leaving nasty comments on her photo... of a pulled beef chili sandwich.

The photo now has more than 2,000 comments, some calling Ray a "home wrecker" or asking her "how to make a side hoe salad with lemons." Other Instagram users claimed, "We know you Becky with the good hair," and the "Beyhive is coming for you."
Fans were also quick to bring up Ray's show 30 Minute Meals, leaving comments like, "You got Jay Z whipped into your 30 Minute Meals huh? No way Queen's potato salad was bad compared to yours... chef lady."
"I used to love you. You just lost a fan and I let your husband know what you out here doing," another Instagram user commented.

I have nothing against Beyonce but her fans are the worst. I now can't support her.

(37,573 posts)because I like their songs.
Once I was in a record shop buying a tape, and the girl at the counter told me that she had met the artist in college and he was a pompous ass talking about how great his stereo was. I sorta thought "I am just buying a tape, I am not marrying the guy."

(14,040 posts)are mostly assholes from what I've seen. I'm a huge fan of the tv show The 100 and there was a HUGE brouhaha recently and the "fans" are attacking the stars of the show because of what took place, as well as people who continue to watch the show. It really can be a shit storm out there.

(53,866 posts)i love beyonce, hers is the only album i've bought this year. However, if she wanted to she could prevent her fans from behaving this way. she doesn't want to. but it would be difficult for her to pretend that she didn't want this to happen. she knows her power and she knows her base.

(16,399 posts)The first impulse is to call out a woman with no skin in the game other than getting off, not the man who presumably made vows in front of "the Lord" and all.
And that starts with Beyonce herself. Someone can correct me if she calls Jay-Z an asshole or whatever somewhere else.

(594 posts)should criticize a musician because of what their fans do/say. Everyone famous has some batshit crazy fans, and Beyonce has A LOT of fans, so it stands to reason that she would have a number of jerks supporting her. She didn't do anything wrong, and she is damn talented.

(14,177 posts)Yeah her fans are passionate, but she's always on the right side of the issues. And she can drive RW idiots insane. I really don't need more than that.
