Amber Rose recently clarified her surprising comment about Beyoncé after causing a stir on social media. The controversy began on Saturday after Beyoncé delivered a speech endorsing Kamala Harris for Vice President at a Houston rally. Beyoncé’s speech, aimed at rallying support against then-Republican nominee Donald Trump, received widespread praise.
However, in a video of Beyoncé’s endorsement, Rose made a bold statement, claiming that Beyoncé had “stolen” her “whole speech” and that the singer was trying to “be me.” Rose’s comment quickly sparked backlash, with many fans and followers wondering if she was taking a direct shot at Beyoncé.
In her post, Rose had written, “She wanna be me so bad. Literally took my whole speech.” On Sunday, Rose addressed the incident after being approached by paparazzi while attending a Halloween party. Speaking to TMZ, Rose explained that her comment wasn’t meant to be serious or “throwing shade” at Beyoncé.
Instead, she clarified that it was “just trolling a friend.” Rose added, “It’s funny ‘cause even trolling isn’t safe anymore… ‘cause even little jokes can blow up wide.” According to Rose, playful trolling is common in her friendships, and she claims this instance was one of those lighthearted moments.
However, some fans noted that Rose has publicly shown support for Donald Trump, which contrasts with Beyoncé’s vocal endorsement of Kamala Harris, adding fuel to the controversy. Rose’s remarks highlight the fine line between humor and public perception, as her seemingly offhand comment quickly escalated into a trending topic.
