Annie Lennox Calls Beyonce A Fake Feminist

Eurythmics frontwoman Annie Lennox Calls Beyonce Being A Fake feminist after appearing at the MTV Video Music Awards.

CelebNMusic247.com has the tea that Lennox, 59, who feels Beyonce is a fake feminist, claims that too many younger female stars were bandying the term feminist in an poor attempt to promote their careers.

Annie spoke with PrideSource to give her views on Beyonce’s “so-called” feminist credentials saying:

“I would call that ‘feminist lite’. L-I-T-E.

“I’m sorry. It’s tokenistic to me. I mean, I think she’s a phenomenal artist – I just love her performances – but I’d like to sit down [with her].”

The Sweet Dreams singer went on to add:

“I think I’d like to sit down with quite a few artists and talk to them. I’d like to listen to them; I’d like to hear what they truly think.”

“I see a lot of it as them taking the word hostage and using it to promote themselves, but I don’t think they necessarily represent wholeheartedly the depths of feminism – no, I don’t.”

In regards to artists appearing on stage scantily-clad when appealing to a younger audience, Annie admits her distaste. She weighs in on Bey’s attire saying:

“I think for many it’s very convenient and it looks great and it looks radical, but I have some issues with it. I have issues with it. Of course I do. I think it’s a cheap shot. I think what they do with it is cheap and … yeah.”

“What can I tell you? Sex always sells. And there’s nothing wrong with sex selling, but it depends on your audience. If they’re seven-year-old kids, I have issues with it.”

What do you think of Annie’s views?
