Hateful comments from journalists came in response to a picture shared by Megan Thee Stallion, which features Beyoncé and Blue Ivy, as they marked their presence at a New Year’s Eve party. While the picture brought forth tons of love and well wishes for the Carters and Stallion, it also attracted critical comments by some journalists, as they seemingly had other thoughts.
In the now-deleted tweet, the anonymous journalist reportedly remarked that he felt sorry for Blue Ivy, as the eight-year-old might inherit Jay-Z's facial features in the future. In response to the comment, another journalist from a popular magazine opined that Blue Ivy might have to go through the ‘ugly duckling’ phase. Take a look at the picture:
