Beyoncé Uses Ronda Rousey’s “Do Nothing B—h” Speech In Made In America Concert

Beyoncé featured quotes from UFC champion Ronda Rousey, as well as quotes from Maya Angelou, during her set at the Budweiser Made In America music festival in Philadelphia.

Beyoncé Quotes Ronda Rousey’s #DNB Speech

Beyoncé performed at the Budweiser Made In America Festival on Saturday, Sept. 5, singing songs from across her career, including some Destiny’s Child, and incorporating feminist messages from other famous women into her set. In between songs, she featured Maya Angelou’s “Phenomenal Woman,” and incorporated Rousey’s viral “do-nothing b–ches” (DNB) speech into her track, “Diva.”

“I have this one term for the kind of woman that my mother raised me not to be. I call it a ‘do-nothing b–ch.’ …She’s a b–ch who just tries to be pretty and be taken care of by someone else,” Rousey said in August.

“That’s why I think it’s hilarious if people say that my body looks masculine, or something like that. I’m just like, ‘Listen, just because my body was developed for a purpose other than f—king millionaires doesn’t mean it’s masculine.’ I think it’s femininely badass as f—k because there’s not a single muscle on my body that isn’t for a purpose. Because I’m not a do-nothing b–ch.”

Rousey has yet to respond to Beyonce’s incorporation of her feminist speech, but the performance did catch the eye of UFC’s Dana White, who shared a video of the performance on Twitter.
