Monica Lewinsky is demanding Beyoncé remove a sexist lyric referencing her affair with former President Bill Clinton from her 2013 track 'Partition.' This comes after Beyoncé vowed to replace ableist slur "sp*z" from new song 'Heated.' There is a racy lyric in 'Partition' that goes, "he Monica Lewinsky-ed all on my gown." Lewinsky famously had an affair with Clinton between 1995 and 1997. Their relationship began when she was a 22-year-old unpaid White House intern - and eventually led to his impeachment on December 19th, 1998. Even if the lyric is very misogynistic (it is), she should have spoken up about it when the song dropped nine years ago.
