Every woman who could be 'Becky with the good hair' from Beyoncé's 'Lemonade'
Boy is it a bad week to be named Becky. Or have good hair.
And if you happen to have both, god speed.
As all humans and household pets are now aware, Beyoncé dropped an earth-shattering visual album, Lemonade, on Saturday. The album featured several pointed messages at Jay Z's extramarital affairs, the most memorable and mysterious line being, "He only want me when I'm not there / He better call Becky with the good hair" in the track "Sorry."
The Beyhive immediately launched a witch hunt for the alleged mistress with enviable locks, setting their sights on a myriad of women with storied histories with Jay Z.
We've catalogued all the possible Beckys, below.
1. Rachel Roy

Roy is the most likely candidate, with evidence dating back to the early 2000s and Roy's relationship with Jay's former business partner. Roy has denied the allegations, but she sure does have nice hair.

Rachel Ray is not Becky. But people on the Internet can't tell an "o" from an "a," so the cooking mogul took a lot of Instagram heat recently.
Or maybe that's what Jay wants us to believe.
3. Rita Ora

Ora is the latest star to come under attack, due to some fashion faux pas — the singer posted a Snapchat pic in a lemon bra and 'J' necklace (actually a reverse 'r' but close enough) and a selfie wearing the same outfit Beyoncé wore in her "Formation" video.
Ora has since also denied the claims, but if the lemon bra fits?
She also had a lengthy legal battle with Jay Z over her record deal.
4. Lori Loughlin
Yes, Aunt Becky from Full House.
We believe that it's not her, because who could cheat on Uncle Jesse?
5. Liv
The rapper released a song in 2014 called "Sorry Mrs. Carter" in which she blatantly — and somewhat proudly — addresses claims about being Jay Z's "side chick" and "mistress" and bashes Beyoncé's character.
6. Rihanna
Rihanna has been linked to Jay Z since she was signed to his label, Def Jam, when she was just 17. Several fans have also speculated that Bey's song "Ring the Alarm" was about RiRi and Jay's relationship — and we all know Jay always has a spot under Rihanna's umbrella...
6. Taylor Swift
Tumblr knows the truth — Taylor Swift is just Becky in disguise.
8. Tori Kelly

IDK. We can't even explain this one.
9. Claudia Scheelen
Tabloids blew up after Jay Z partied with the Belgian model in 2013.

The reality TV star (she was in the cast of Bravo's Princesses: Long Island) was accused of being Jay's mistress. But she later filed a cease-and-desist order against Bauer Media Group — which owns tabloids like In Touch — for the allegations, TMZ reported.
