Beyonce's 'shady' comments sent Kim Kardashian 'over the edge' and now she wants an apology, claims source
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Beyonce’s recent comments about celebrity motherhood have ignited rumors of a subtle feud between her and Kim Kardashian, and sources suggest it’s only made an already strained relationship even worse.
The Grammy-winning artist, who rarely addresses her personal life, shared her thoughts in a recent GQ interview that some believe were directed squarely at Kardashian, sparking more tension between the two iconic women.
Beyonce stresses the importance of privacy
In the interview, Beyonce emphasized her desire to maintain privacy for her family, explaining, “One thing I’ve worked extremely hard on is making sure my kids can have as much normalcy and privacy as possible, ensuring my personal life isn’t turned into a brand.”
She went on to note, “It’s very easy for celebrities to turn our lives into performance art. I have made an extreme effort to stay true to my boundaries and protect myself and my family. No amount of money is worth my peace.”
Though no names were mentioned, insiders say Kim Kardashian took the comments personally. Given her public life — which includes her reality shows, businesses like SKKN and SKIMS, and frequent social media updates about her four children — the remarks hit close to home.
“Even if Beyonce didn’t use her name, her shady comments were clearly directed towards Kim, which has got Kim seriously pissed off, especially because it implies that she’s a bad mother,” a source told In Touch.
Kim Kardashian finally 'has no need for' Beyonce
Kim Kardashian, who shares four children with ex-husband Kanye West — North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5 — was already frustrated by what she perceives as years of coldness from Beyonce.
According to an insider, Kardashian “was already hot under the collar over Beyonce and her shabby treatment,” but the recent comments “sent Kim over the edge.”
The tension between the two isn’t exactly new. “For so long, Kim was desperate to impress Beyonce and prove she was worthy of being her friend,” the insider revealed.
Kardashian had repeatedly tried to break into Beyonce’s circle, only to be “rebuffed so many times” that she eventually gave up. “Now she’s saying she has no need for her.”
Interestingly, Kardashian's frustration with Beyonce isn’t just about the recent comments.
The source shared that Kardashian is “actually kind of annoyed with herself for being so in awe of Beyonce for so long,” especially since “pretty catty things” have been said over the years.
Kim Kardashian builds her own network beyond Beyonce
For Kim Kardashian, it’s been a wake-up call that her world doesn’t revolve around getting Queen Bey’s approval.
In fact, Kardashian has been cultivating her own influential network in Hollywood. “She’s quietly building up this really high-level social circle this year,” said the insider.
“It’s opened her eyes to the fact that Beyonce really isn’t the be-all, end-all when it comes to the Hollywood cool kids.”
The source continued, “There are a lot of other people out there who are very powerful and connected, and they’ve given Kim their stamp of approval. So, what does she need Beyonce for?”
Kardashian's confidence in her new connections has empowered her to stop chasing Beyonce’s approval.
According to the insider, she’s “done kowtowing to Beyonce” and is even ready to confront her. “She says she’s going to march up to her and demand an apology the next time they’re in the same room.”
The history of tension between the two dates back to 2016, when Kanye West — now legally known as Ye — publicly lashed out at Beyonce and her husband, Jay-Z, during one of his concerts.
“Jay Z, call me, bruh,” Ye famously said during his rant. “Please call me. Talk to me like a man.” That incident marked a turning point in the relationship between the two couples.
Now, years later, it seems the rift between Kardashian and Beyonce has deepened, with the two navigating their very different worlds of fame and motherhood.
