Thousands Sign Petition Against #Beyonce And #JayZ

As if Jay Z and Beyonce don’t already have enough on their plates after the recent cheating allegations and elevator beat down drama.
Change.org, which was founded by Jasmine Toliver, decided to launch a petition asking Beyonce and Jay Z to comb their two-year-old daughter Blue Ivy's hair and it reads:
As a woman who understands the importance of hair care, it's disturbing to watch a child suffering from the lack of hair moisture. The parents of Blue Ivy, Sean Carter aka Jay Z and Beyonce have failed at numerous attempts of doing Blue Ivy's hair. This matter has escalated to the child developing matted dreads and lint balls. Please let's get the word out to properly care for Blue Ivy hair.'

More than 3,601 people have  signed the petition and stated their reasons in the comments section.
'Because no child whose mom spends thousands on her hair (monthly) should live life looking like a sheep!' wrote one woman.
'I hate when a mother looks like a million dollars with their hair all done and the child looks like they haven't seen a comb since they were born,' said another.
'Cruelty to children has to stop,' wrote a third supporter.
But not everyone was quite so on board with the cause.
'This is the dumbest thing I have seen in my life,' wrote one woman.
'You have no right to assume that you are the authority on anyone's hair, you judgmental females, that is her child. Not yours!'
And another person joked: 'Maybe we need to petition for a life for Jasmine Toliver.'

Ms Toliver has since stated that the page was a joke, writing on her Facebook page: 'People just need to breathe and chill out.'
She told BuzzFeed:
'I never thought my opinion of comb, care and moisturize would make a big deal. I admire she's natural. I'm natural myself. But natural doesn't mean to be left alone. I recommend finger detangling with water and coconut oil. Then an organic conditioner. But Blessings to Blue. I apologize to anyone I might of offended [sic].'
