Shoots Fired! Piers Morgan wasn’t too fond of Beyonce’s latest work “Lemonade”, saying what pretty much any other political reporter has said about her recently. He didn’t appreciate the sudden “politically/racially charged” themes in her new music. The Late Show with Larry Wilmore’s Franchesca Ramsey hears him out but gives him an earful. Check out her epic rant.

“Sure you’ve consistently been against gun control but you’ve also consistently been a douchebag.”

Ouch. That was just the beginning too. On top of calling him a douche bag and a “failed CNN host”, in true Beyhive fashion, Franchesca Ramsey comes at Piers Morgan for not being completely on board with Beyonce’s latest internet craze.

This wouldn’t be much of an issue if his reasons were justified. But to not like the visual album because it’s “politically/racially charged” seems a bit odd. I would like to point out that this album wasn’t that political, if not political at all (with the exception of two videos, not even the songs). Beyonce’s “Freedom” honors the victims of Police brutality, having the mothers of the victims hold up an image of their sons. Morgan thought Beyonce was exploiting the mothers to sell records.

However, if Beyonce is bringing attention to unnecessary deaths by the hand of a gun (the same issue that Piers Morgan fights for) why shame Beyonce for that?

What do you guys think? Do you think Beyonce was exploiting the lives of these mothers for money? Do you feel like Franchesca Ramsey’s rant was necessary to shut Pier Morgan’s backward-thinking-ass up? Let us know.
