Mike Huckabee Says Jay Z Is A 'Pimp' For 'Exploiting' Beyonce Knowles


HuffPo.com:
For some inexplicable reason, former Fox News pundit and GOP governor, and possible 2016 presidential candidate, Mike Huckabee decided to weigh in on Jay Z and Beyonce in his new book. The result? An offensive statement calling the rapper a "pimp" who exploits his wife. 

Passages in Huckabee's forthcoming book about today's "fractious" American society, God, Guns, Grits, and Gravy, due out Jan. 20, touch on "popular culture provocations from Jay Z and Beyonce," according to the book's description on Amazon. 

U.S. World News & World Report published a handful of quotes Thursday ahead of the book's release, one of which focused on Jay Z and Beyonce's 2014 Grammys performance of "Drunk in Love," which Huckabee compares to "foreplay": 

My reaction: Why? Beyonce is incredibly talented –- gifted, in fact. She has an exceptional set of pipes and can actually sing. She is a terrific dancer –- without the explicit moves best left for the privacy of her bedroom. Jay Z is a very shrewd businessman, but I wonder: Does it occur to him that he is arguably crossing the line from husband to pimp by exploiting his wife as a sex object?
