Celebrity designer Rachel Roy has once again stepped forward to put an end to rumors and speculation of being the mysterious “Becky” from singer Beyoncé’s new “Sorry” Lemonade song.
Roy released an official statement on the aftermath of commenting on Bey’s “Becky” line on Instagram and distanced herself from a perceived cheating scandal.
“I want to put the speculation and rumors to rest. My Instagram post was meant to be fun and lighthearted, it was misunderstood as something other than that. There is no validity to the idea that the song references me personally. There is no truth to the rumors. Consequently, online haters have targeted me and my daughters in a hurtful and scary manner, including physical threats. As a mother – and I know many mothers would agree – I feel that bullying in any form is harmful and unacceptable. I would hope that the media sees the real issue here – the issue of cyber bullying – and how it should not be tolerated by anyone.” (People)
The latest reports claim Roc Nation’s Rita Ora may have been the inspiration behind Bey’s “Becky” line.
Ora was quickly stung when she took to Snapchat over the weekend with a sexy selfie, loaded with what fans took as evidence of her being a side chick. The 25-year-old donned a lemon-themed bra and further sparked rumors by wearing a gold ‘J’ pendant necklace. She upped the ante Monday, stepping out in West Hollywood wearing a carbon copy of the red Gucci blouse-skirt combo Beyoncé wore in her “Formation” video. (NY Daily News)
Tensions flared after Roy appeared to respond to a reference from Beyoncé’s new Lemonade visual album last weekend.

Reports suggested Queen Bey took an ample shot at Roy in the “Sorry” song.
“Sorry,” the fourth track on Beyonce’s surprise new album, Lemonade, hits back at a guy for his lame attempt at an apology after he cheated on his lady. “Middle fingers up, put them hands high,” Beyonce sings. “Wave it in his face, tell him, boy, bye. Tell him, boy, bye, middle fingers up. I ain’t thinking ‘bout you.” So good. The song ends by calling out the girl he cheated with: “He better call Becky with the good hair.” (Hollywood Life)
