A brilliant piece of writing by Rakhi Kumar in his open letter to Michelle Obama as he disagrees with her views on Beyonce being referred to as a role model. Whether you agree with him or not, he makes a strong case for his views and does it with a lot of sense. Enjoy the letter below.  “Dear Michelle Obama, I’m addressing this to you because I admire you. Because you’re smart and a mum to two young girls. And you’re the First Lady of the USA. And because you were recently quoted as saying that Beyonce is a great ‘role model’ to your two daughters, and because you recently tweeted, after the Superbowl, that you were ‘so proud’ of her. I’m writing because everything you do is admired and emulated by so many; but when you endorse a recording artist like Beyonce, I see the most misogynistic aspects of the music industry (that prefers girls to be no more complex than dolls) interpret your comments as a seal of approval for the thoughtless cultural currency that they flood the youth market with. I’m writing because I think it’s time to stop suggesting to very young girls that ultimate feminine success – in the music industry or anywhere else – comes with the need, or the expectation for them to UnCloth. When Beyonce kicked off her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour two nights ago, wearing her sheer bodysuit with nipples showing, to me she performed the final degradation of her talent; a retrogressive transformation that has taken someone stellar and otherworldly, and made them into something dreadfully familiar and sad. Variations of Beyonce’s body suit can be found in brothels, strip clubs, and red light districts across the world – where sex is for sale and...” The rest of this intriguing open letter is from the "source" directly below...

On this picture it seems like she has a mustache, very unflattering... |

Sanboy25:If it did, i wouldn't still admit it... That's jigga's wifey, no dirty thoughts. Although someone did smack her on the butt while she was performing somewhere in Europe. |

Sanboy25:Jigga will do nothing but sit his a** down... What did they expect when she decided to sell herself as a se*ual symbol? |

lumeviews.com: Hum that's the sad part with fame, only s/e/x sells... But I believed that he was more possessive than that... I'm kind of disappointed with his non-reaction. |
| Re: Beyonce Is Not A Role Model by lumeviewscom: 10:42pm On May 30, 2013 |
Sanboy25:Alicia keys doesn't get involved in all that s/e/x crap... and she still sells records. Jay Z could do nothing about that whole episode! |
| Re: Beyonce Is Not A Role Model by Sanboy25: 10:47pm On May 30, 2013 |
lumeviews.com: Hum you're right, but A.Keys is (unfortunately) not billionaire like this couple... lol at Jay-Z |

Sanboy25:Jigga and Beyonce put together are not worth a billion dollars... a few hundred mill though. But i see what you mean. It still doesn't change the fact that A.Keys and Swiss Beatz are A-list celebrities too. |
| Re: Beyonce Is Not A Role Model by Sanboy25: 11:06pm On May 30, 2013 |
lumeviews.com: Haha, you are wrong, they recently became the first couple ever to become billionaire in the music industry. Google it if you don't believe me.  Yes of course the two others are high-esteemed celebrities. |

She is a role model....it's just that some can not handle her success (Kelly for example). Everything she touches she excels in.....how many people can say that? Maybe just her (and Alicia Keys to some extent) good looks.....check! career success......check! marriage....check! motherhood....check! all that with no dirt being dished or substance abuse scandals....check! Not many young ladies in entertainment today have that. Michelle knows what she is talking about.........and knows Beyonce personally. Beyonce is role model for the person who wants it all and is willing to work HARD and FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME to get it. By the way, picking a bad pic of her is such a hater move.....lol 1 Like |
