Monica Lewinsky would like a word with Beyoncé about her 2014 song “Partition,” which references the former White House intern’s infamous affair with former President Bill Clinton.
Songwriter Diane Warren got a lesson in music sampling from Beyoncé's fans and producer after questioning the many writers on the song ‘Alien Superstar.’
It’s worth noting that this is not the first time Lewinsky has called Beyoncé out for “Partition.” In 2014, she responded to the song by telling , “Thanks, Beyoncé. But if we’re verbing, I think you meant ‘Bill Clinton’d all on my gown,’ not ‘Monica Lewinsky’d.’”, Lewinsky jokingly introduced herself at Forbes’ “Under 30 Summit” that year by saying, “Some of you might be asking, ‘Who the hell is she, this Monica, and what is she doing here?’ or maybe even, ‘What is she doing in all of those rap lyrics?’ ... Thank you, Beyoncé and Eminem. And Nicki Minaj. And Kid Cudi.
“The word, not used intentionally in a harmful way, will be replaced,” read a statement from Beyoncé's team, obtained by
