The Queen Bee has become the subject of a strange and disjointed TikTok conspiracy theory linking her and her husband Jay-Z to P. Diddy.
To make matters worse, people on TikTok are convinced that she somehow had a role in the deaths of late pop stars Aaliyah, Left Eye, and Michael Jackson.
Where Did The Beyoncé-Jay Z-Diddy Conspiracy Theory Come From?
The origins of the conspiracy theories linking Beyoncé and her husband Jay Z to incarcerated criminal P. Diddy are unconfirmed. However, Redditors /u/RepresentativeOk2433 and /u/joe_bibidi responded to a post on /r/OutOfTheLoop with a theory about why the three music artists were being linked by more conspiratorial minds.
TikToker @nivinsmctwisp was one of the first to post a video of Beyoncé set to the track “She Knows” by J. Cole, gathering over a million views in a week. A day later, TikToker @thefernandomj posted another video linking Beyoncé to the deaths of Aaliyah, Left Eye, and Michael Jackson, gathering over 8 million views.
Variations of following copypasta are often seen in the comments sections of such videos, linking Beyoncé to Diddy through J. Cole’s lyrics.
“SHE KNOWS”
Shen= Sean(Diddy)
Knows= Beyonce last name(Knowles)
J. COLE highlights “Just as soon as I die” because he knew P. Diddy will hunt him for saying his dark secrets!
Why Are People Saying That Other Pop Stars Are Scared Of Beyoncé?
More TikToks about Beyoncé set to the song “She Knows” by J. Cole gathered millions of views towards the end of September 2024, with TikToker @rdvllc’s edit gathering over 18 million plays and 2.8 million likes.
Several TikTokers also posted videos of award winners acknowledging and thanking Beyoncé in their speeches, implying that they do so because they fear her influence and fear what she might do to someone she feels threatened by.
Clips of Adele crying and thanking Beyoncé are often cited in such conspiracy theory videos, as are clips of Kanye interrupting Taylor Swift. One such video posted by @rezkue gathered over 7 million likes.
What’s Up With Memes About The ‘Fear In Her Eyes’ And How ‘She Just Wanted To Survive’?
As the bizarre conspiracy theories about Beyoncé spread, so did memes mocking the whole situation. X (formerly Twitter) users began to share videos of other pop stars being fearful of Beyoncé, a trend that began with a video of the singer looking over at Dua Lipa.
X user @quentinRIP posted the video, writing, “Dua knew she had to stay still to not anger her… you can see the fear in her eyes,” and gathering nearly 200,000 likes in a day.
