Sipping Beyoncé Meme with Sienna Abdulahad

Shownotes

Memes: 

• Beyonce Sipping Meme - "It's the meme where Beyoncé is kind of glancing at the crowd as if she walked into a conversation and she's sipping on a drink. Let's say it's a Sprite or Slurpee or something. And then she kind of gives this odd look of like, "This is really none of my business." And she walks away. That's the meme in a nutshell. She's got on a hoodie, a black hoodie. So you can see that she really did just walk in and kind of turn and she's like, 'Forget this.'"
