Beyoncé and Rihanna Fans Are Actually Feuding Over Which 'Vogue' Cover Is Better
The September issue of Vogue is typically the most talked about of the year, and this time it featured not one but two icons on the cover: Beyoncé, for American Vogue, and Rihanna for British Vogue. On Beyoncé’s U.S.-based cover, the singer stuns in a white Victorian-esque prairie dress in front of a white sheet, her smize in full effect. Meanwhile, Rihanna sports dainty brows and orange gloves on her cover as she casually stares into every British Vogue reader’s soul. Rihanna and Bey are each brilliant and talented, but wait: What’s that? They’re both wearing flower crowns on their Vogue covers! The horror!
Obviously, I kid: Bey and Rih are both more than allowed to wear flower crowns at the same time and serve lewks. It appears, however, as if certain segments of their fandoms aren’t too happy the singers are rocking similar vibes. As first reported by BuzzFeed, a few Beyoncé and Rihanna fans are currently at war over which star was the first to wear a flower crown. “Thanks for the Rihanna concept,” one fan replied to Vogue‘s tweet of Beyoncé’s cover, while another wrote, “Hmmm seems a bit like @BritishVogue cover with Rihanna to me?” More fans soon came out of the woodwork with receipts, comebacks, and ad hominem attacks.

Thankfully, the fans pitting Beyoncé and Rihanna against each other are in the minority. There are plenty more Twitter commentators who jumped in and declared that both women look terrific on their covers, and casually revived flower crowns in the process. We couldn’t agree more.
