Beyoncé is vegan now -- and she wants you to be one, too.

Queen Bey announced her healthy lifestyle in a much-hyped exclusive segment for Good Morning America on Monday. She also took the opportunity to promote 22 Days Nutrition, a vegan home delivery food service founded by trainer Marco Borges. She and husband Jay Z are partners in the company.

“I’m not naturally the thinnest woman. I have curves,” Beyoncé told GMA. “I have struggled since a young age with diets. Finding something that actually works and keeps the weight off has been difficult for me.” She also added that her skin is "really firm and a lot tighter" because of sticking to a vegan diet.

Beyoncé has dabbled in veganism for some time. In 2013, she and Jay Z went on a very public 22-day vegan diet challenge, inspired by Borges. She also recently wrote the foreword for Borges' nutrition book The 22 Day Revolution, which preaches a vegan, plant-based diet.

Guess she can say goodbye to gorging on burgers with Nicki Minaj.

Of course, some fans were pretty pissed that Beyoncé's "big announcement" had nothing to do with new music or a tour. Here are just a few reactions from the surly Beyhive. Some are even swarming her Instagram and leaving food emojis as we speak.
