Singer India Arie Writes a Letter to all Blue Ivy Hair Critics...

Beyoncé and Jay Z’s two-year-old daughter Blue Ivy has been in more headlines for her hair than any other celebrity baby ever. So, R&B Soul Singer India Arie took to Twitter to address all Blue Ivy hair critics. Do you agree with her?

My thoughts on Blue Ivy’s Hair;

Why does ANYone get the idea that it's ok to make fun of a child? In public no less? This celebrity culture that hypnotizes people into thinking a person is LITERALLY NOT REAL because you see them on television is a spell the watcher HIM or HER SELF MUST BREAK. 

Blue Ivy — is a CHILD and ANYONE thinking to themselves right now: 

“But she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth so what does it matter what I say”

Denying ANY PERSON their humanity, is a GAME we should ALL stop playing.  

WHY? 

Because it’s the kind of PERSON YOU WANT TO BE. Why NOT be a person who is loving towards human kind as a whole AND people as individuals? WHY NOT be a person that protects the hearts of children? 

I think all these people making negative comments would feel the SAME WAY if Blue Ivy’s hair were TOO DONE. If she had a relaxer, or Hair pulled too tight at the edges. Being gentle with a child’s hair is simply appropriate – this goes the same for ALL children.  

Come on ya’ll, Lol, we ARE better than this.
