Beyoncé has humorously become the subject of a wave of gratitude across social media, particularly through amusing memes that portray her as a figure of great influence.

The focus on Beyoncé and her partner, Jay-Z, escalated following the recent arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is currently battling serious charges related to s*x trafficking.

On TikTok, users have begun sharing ‘Thank You Beyoncé’ memes, featuring comedic scenarios where individuals pretend to sneeze or submit work while seemingly invoking her name to ward off bad luck.

Some TikTok users have even suggested that skipping a Beyoncé track on streaming services could bring about misfortune.

This viral trend gained traction after Diddy’s arrest on September 16, following allegations related to s*x trafficking, p*rstitution, and racketeering.

The Emergence of the ‘Thank You Beyoncé’ Phenomenon Amidst Diddy’s Legal Troubles

Beyoncé has received public praise on various occasions; for instance, in 2017, at the Grammy Awards, Adele tearfully acknowledged Beyoncé when she won Album of the Year, attributing significant influence to her, despite Beyoncé’s lack of a direct role in Adele’s album. This moment was heightened when Adele famously broke her Grammy, leading some to speculate that it was intentional so she could share it with Beyoncé.

Other artists, like Lizzo and Jay-Z, also acknowledged Beyoncé during their Grammy acceptance speeches.

One of the most memorable moments in award shows was when Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards to declare, “I’ma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time,” solidifying his place in viral history.

Many individuals seem to express their thanks in jest, showing fear that neglecting to honor Beyoncé might lead to chaos in their lives.

This trend follows speculation by online detectives suggesting that Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Diddy may have been involved in the tragic fates of Aaliyah, Left Eye, and Michael Jackson, a theory seemingly referenced in J. Cole’s song ‘She Knows.’

Unpacking the ‘She Knows’ Conspiracy Theory: Why Beyoncé is Trending

J. Cole’s popular track ‘She Knows,’ released in 2013, has resurfaced as fans interpret it as a subtle nod to the mysterious deaths of these iconic musicians.

Conspiracy theorists allege that Beyoncé was aware of a scheme hatched by Jay-Z and Diddy, which allegedly resulted in the sad endings of these artists.

Notably, J. Cole mentions these departed stars in his lyrics, singing:

“Only bad thing ‘bout a star is they burn up/ Rest in peace to Aaliyah/ Rest in peace to Left Eye/ Michael Jackson, I’ll see you as soon as I die.”

Internet enthusiasts have pointed out an eerie coincidence: all these stars passed away on the 25th. Aaliyah tragically died in a plane accident on August 25, 2001, Left Eye lost her life in a car crash on April 25, 2002, and Michael Jackson succumbed to cardiac arrest on June 25, 2009, under the influence of multiple substances.

Online discourse suggests that some believe Diddy and Jay-Z were complicit in these events, while J. Cole’s song seems to hint at Beyoncé’s involvement with the repeating phrase ‘She Knows,’ which mirrors her last name.

Additionally, fans speculate that the shared birth date of Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and Diddy on the 4th lends itself to theories of them orchestrating something malevolent together.

It is crucial to emphasize that there is currently no supporting evidence linking these three artists to the deaths of Aaliyah, Left Eye, or Michael Jackson.
