Beyoncé has seemingly responded to Erykah Badu and Lizzo's recent allegations on her Renaissance Tour. Last week Badu pointed out that she and Queen Bey had similar hats worn on their respective tours.
The "Call Tyrone" singer shared a side-by-side photo of the two in similar hats. "Hmm. I guess I’m everyone’s stylist. My favorite chrome mirror hat," Badu wrote alongside the photo per Page Six.
She additionally went into Beyoncé's comments writing, "I’m flattered."
During Beyoncé's tour stop in Massachusetts Tuesday night (Aug. 1), the Renaissance creator seemingly responded to Badu's message and shaded Lizzo in the same breath. In her "Break My Soul (The Queens Remix)," she typically sings "Badu, Lizzo, Kelly Rowl." However, during the Boston performance, she just sang "Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu."
The alleged Lizzo shade, however, stems from the "Special" singer's recent legal troubles. The singer is being sued by three of her former tour dancers for sexual harassment and discrimination. Former dancers Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez are accusing the entertainer of multiple wrongdoings during their time of employment by Lizzo (real name Melissa Jefferson) and her Big Grrrl Big Touring Inc.
In a complaint obtained by Billboard, the dancers allege that Lizzo pressured the dancers into attending a live sex show in Amsterdam. The lawsuit details at the show, "Lizzo began inviting cast members to take turns touching the nude performers, catching dildos launched from the performers’ vaginas, and eating bananas protruding from the performers’ vaginas. Lizzo then turned her attention to Ms. Davis and began pressuring Ms. Davis to touch the breasts of one of the nude women performing at the club."
Representatives for Lizzo and Shirlene Quigley, the captain of Lizzo’s dance team (named in the lawsuit as a co-defendant), have not provided public statements on the allegations.

Beyoncé embarked on her Renaissance World Tour in May with dates in France, England, Germany, and more. Days after her tour announcement, she became the most awarded artist in Grammy history when she won the Best Dance/Electronic Music Album Grammy for Renaissance. She took home four trophies that night as she accepted awards for Best Traditional R&B Performance for "Plastic Off The Sofa," Best R&B Song for "Cuff It," and Best Dance/Electronic Recording for "Break My Soul."

"I want to thank God for protecting me. Thank you, God. I'd like to thank my Uncle Johnny who's not here, but he's here in spirit." Beyoncé continued, "I'd like to thank my parents, my father, my mother for loving me and pushing me. I'd like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three Children who are at home watching. I'd like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre. God bless you. Thank you so much to the Grammys. Thank you."
However, before there was Renaissance, before she was a solo superstar, she was the lead vocalist for one of the most influential girl's groups of all time, Destiny's Child. The final lineup of the group consisted of Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. Beyoncé and Rowland were the only members throughout the entirety of the group's history. LeToya Luckett, Farrah Franklin, LaTavia Roberson, parted ways with the group in the early years.
The group originated under the name Girl's Tyme with Beyoncé, Rowland, Roberson, and Luckett in 1990. They later changed their name to Destiny's Child in 1997 when they were signed to Columbia Records. The group split after the final three members ventured out onto solo careers.
Destiny's Child was nominated for nine Grammy awards and won two in the group's history and went on to influence the current sound of R&B and Pop genres today.
Take a look at five songs that should add to her Renaissance Tour:
"Say My Name" 'The Writing's on the Wall' (1999)
"Say My Name" is a Destiny's Child classic and all OG Destiny's Child fans would love to here Beyoncé perform it on tour. The song won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and Best R&B Song in 2001. The song is from the group's 1999 album The Writing's on the Wall.
"Solider" 'Destiny Fulfilled' (2004)
"Solider" would be a great addition to the set list as Beyoncé has already displayed that she has an army-inspired custom IVY Park outfit for the tour. This record is from the group's final album Destiny Fulfilled which was released in 2004. The song features rappers T.I. and Lil Wayne. The record was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Melodic Rap Performance in 2006.
"Bootylicious" 'Survivor' (2001)
Imagine a mash-up of "Thique" and "Bootylicious," an absolute dream. "Bootylicious" is on the group's 2001 album Survivor. A remix of the song with Missy Elliott is featured in the 2001 musical film drama Carmen: A Hip Hopera which Beyoncé stars in.
"Cater 2 U" 'Destiny Fulfilled' (2004)
We could definitely see a "Cater 2 U" being performed before or after "Plastic Off The Sofa." The song is found on Destiny Fulfilled which was released in 2004. The song was nominated for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 2006.
"Bills Bills Bills"
Well, since Beyoncé told us to quit our jobs on "Break My Soul" she can at least perform "Bills Bills Bills" because someone has to pay them, right? "Bills Bills Bills" is from Destiny Child's second studio album The Writing's on the Wall. The song was the group's first No. 1 hit.
