On social media, everyone is thanking Beyoncé
And it's P. Diddy's and the conspiracy theories' fault
October 11th, 2024
The P. Diddy case continues to spark conversation, both directly and indirectly. Every time new details emerge, the public reopens a never-ending debate, memes—ranging from respectful to irreverent—flood the internet, and people investigate the victims and those involved. On this point, there's speculation (or anticipation, depending on the perspective) that a whole underground network of celebrities and superstars may be implicated. Because it seems impossible that he acted alone, and with each new horror revealed, this becomes clearer. As a result, people are questioning the overwhelming power some individuals have in the U.S. and global show business, conspiracies included.
P. Diddy Case: Are Beyoncé and Jay-Z Involved?
Among those potentially involved are Beyoncé and Jay-Z. They're powerful, they're untouchable, and it seems they associated with Sean Combs. Is it really possible they knew absolutely nothing? If we assume they were directly involved, then an empire is about to fall, and the effects of this earthquake won't subside anytime soon. If they were indirectly involved, people can still criticize their silence. Often, these abuses in the industry are known to everyone but reported by no one, and this code of silence exacerbates the situation, spreading harm like wildfire and crushing victims. A strong supporter of the first theory is Jaguar Wright. The singer went further, suggesting their involvement in the deaths of Aaliyah, Janis Joplin, and Whitney Houston. She revealed this on Piers Morgan's show, though he had to publicly apologize just days after the interview aired, following a legal warning from the couple's lawyers.

"Thank you, Beyoncé" and "She knows" Trend on TikTok
In the midst of the debate, TikTok users are responding with humor. Without directly mentioning P. Diddy, they playfully thank Beyoncé at every opportunity, "afraid" that failing to do so might have serious consequences on their lives, given the immense power she holds. Some have even identified a clear pattern. Many world-renowned artists, after winning a prestigious award, mention the Destiny's Child star in their acceptance speeches, even without any apparent reason or direct connection. Just think of Adele at the 2017 Grammy Awards. Do they do it out of fear? Perhaps it's an apotropaic prayer, a way to ward off bad luck and avoid the wrath of the gods. The sketch usually ends with the use of the song She Knows, further emphasizing her alleged complicity in the ongoing case.

Conspiracy Theories Surrounding Beyoncé
In the end, these are currently nothing more than unconfirmed conspiracy theories, which, thanks to the ironic repetition game of social media, have become trends and memes. This is not the first time the Crazy in Love singer has been linked to a certain type of imagery. Maybe it's because she loves to include religious symbols in her music videos and album covers, or maybe it's because power always invites conspiracy. Some call her an illuminati member, while others accuse her of being part of secret cults that decide the fate of the world. What is the truth?
