People are already making Becky merchandise
Never in pop culture history has there ever been a woman as elusive as Becky.
And now she's the scorn – and fascination – of millions around the globe. Thanks to Beyonce's "Lemonade," where she mentions a certain "Becky with the good hair," the Internet has gone wild over speculation.
Of course, "good hair," has its roots in slavery, where those without kinky African hair would be assigned to household chores. In the song, Beyonce is acknowledging more than just a straightened-out coif, rather, the baggage many African American women have faced for centuries.
