Beyoncé’s mum has slammed ‘racist’ trolls who accused her daughter of ‘lightening’ her skin during the premiere of her Renaissance film.
Tina Knowles said she was “sick and tired of people attacking” her daughter after she was criticised for her look. The premiere saw the superstar sporting platinum blond hair and a silver dress with matching gloves.
