Since the release of Beyonce’s highly anticipated seventh studio album “Renaissance” she has received some backlash from fans and other celebrities. After Kelis complained about not being asked permission to use her song, now TV personality and activist Monica Lewinsky is requesting the superstar adjust her lyrics from 2013 song, “Partition”.
Lewinsky had an affair with then President Bill Clinton while she was an intern at the white house, leading to Clinton being impeached. She sings, “He bucked all my buttons, and he ripped my blouse. He Monica Lewinski’d all on my gown.” Lewinsky has referenced the Beyonce lyric in her twitter bio, referring to herself as a “rap song muse”. She also thanked Beyonce in a 2014 interview with Vanity Fair saying, “Thanks, Beyoncé, but if we’re verbing, I think you meant ‘Bill Clinton’d all on my gown,’ not ‘Monica Lewinsky’d.”
Monica said she has not reached out to Beyonce, and Beyonce’s representatives have not made any statements so far about the lyrics.
