#1 Kid Rock

The Queen Bee's fans didn't like Kid Rock very much after he did a 2015 interview with Rolling Stone magazine trashing the singer.

#2 No Big Classics

The popular rockabilly performer responded to a question on Beyoncés popularity and he answered it honestly by asking "How can you be that big without at least one 'Sweet Home Alabama' or 'Old Time Rock & Roll' song in your songbook? He went on to clarify that he didn't see any of her songs as long lasting classics.

#3 The Bee Hive

The Bee Hive, Beyoncés fan base, went to Kid Rocks Twitter page and bombarded it with thousands of posts of bee emojis. After three days of this, Rock responded by posting a picture of a can of Raid Wasp & Bee Killer. Touché!

#4 Donald Trump

Billionaire and presidential candidate Donald Trump took a number of jabs at Beyoncé after her first Super Bowl show in 2013 when he guested on the Howard Stern Show. Trump called the performance ridiculous and inappropriate for the half-time show.

#5 Out Of Bounds

On that first show in 2013, Trump said, "When Beyoncé was thrusting her hips forward in a very suggestive manner.. If someone else would have done that it would have been a national scandal." After her 2015 show, he was reported to have said that he thought her 'display was out of bounds and a current for hate'.

(Really?)

#6 Wendy Williams

Always one to speak her mind, in 2012 Wendy Williams let it be known that she thought Beyoncé was not one of her favorite people. She took several jabs at the singer on her talk show but when she told her audience that she couldn't stand the way Beyoncé talked in a preview for her HBO documentary, her audience wasn't very happy and 'booed'.

#7 She's Unintelligible

Williams said the preview was 'typical' of Beyoncé but added, "I'm going to be watching this documentary because fortunately one of the TV's in our kitchen has closed captioning, so I'll be able to understand what she says."

#8 Fifth Grade Smart

The insults continued as the audience gasped. They must have been part of the Bee Hive since they were not too pleased when Williams finished by adding "You know Beyoncé can't talk. Beyoncé sounds like she has a fifth-grade education. She can't talk."

#9 Rudy Giuliani

The former mayor of New York City and one-time presidential hopeful, Guiliani, blasted the 2015 half-time show for the Superbowl in which Beyoncé was the headliner. The performance drew reference from the Black Panthers, Black Lives Matter, and Malcolm X.

#10 Fox & Friends

Giuliani was on Fox & Friends the next morning and said, "This is football, not Hollywood. I thought it was really outrageous that she used it as a platform to attack police officers who are the people who protect her and protect us,and keep us alive." He was questioned about the singer using the show to politicize the black movement and responded with "It's disgraceful. People tune in to watch sports and get away from that sort of thing."

#11 Not Decent Entertainment

He then continued to smear the NFL and Beyoncé by saying that the show is supposed to reflect middle America and the values of those Americans, not to be a pulpit for hate. "The NFL should be providing decent wholesome entertainment to the audience," he said, implying that the show was not decent nor wholesome.

#12 At Last

Beyoncé received rave reviews and acclaim for her portrayal of legendary singer Etta James in the 2008 movie 'Cadillac Records'. Her performance of the classic hit "At Last" was a chart breaker and managed to propel the soundtrack to the top of the charts.

#13 Etta James

At the movie premiere in Los Angeles, the lady she was playing in the film, Etta James, went as a guest of Beyoncé and the pair were photographed hamming it up as a pair of good friends. James and 'B' both told the media on the red carpet that they were close and James said how proud she was that Beyoncé was playing her and covering her classic songs.

#14 No Business Singing Her Song

However, it turns out, James wasn't really pleased with Beyoncé. During a 2009 concert, James, who passed away in 2012, trashed Beyoncé to her audience. She blasted the singer for performing her hit song "At Last" for President Obama at the 2009 Inaugural Ball. She stunned her fans when she said "I can't stand Beyoncé. She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' president day, gonna be singing my song that I've been singing forever."

(Etta did do it much better. Sorry Bee Hive!)
