Change.org Petition Asks Beyonce to Comb Blue Ivy’s Hair: When recent photos surfaced of Bey and Jay returning from a weekend getaway in the Hamptons, the world took notice (yet again) that their daughter, Blue Ivy, was having a complete “I woke up like this” moment—and not in a good way. Thus, a ridiculous Change.org petition was started (which now has 85 signatures), urging the power couple to comb little Blue's hair. The Root's Yesha Callahan highlighted this unbelievable (and uncalled for) idea: "There were also comments about how Beyoncé and Jay Z always leave the house looking like a million bucks, but what about Blue Ivy?" she wrote. "So would people be happy if Beyoncé threw a weave or flatiron through Blue Ivy’s hair? Or how about a million beads and braids? Then you’ll have the natural-hair commanders complaining about how much damage that can cause to her hairline. Basically, if you’re Beyoncé and Jay Z, you’re damned if you do Blue Ivy’s hair, and you’re damned if you don’t. [The Cut]
