Tina Knowles is not allowing anyone or anything dampen her spirits.

The mother of famous singer and songwriter Beyoncé has been taking to Instagram over the last few days to bring back what she calls her "Corny Joke time," something that she hasn't done since the beginning of January as she's been recovering from surgery. " I know it’s corny but even if you get a little chuckle it is worth it at this time we must keep our sense of humor and stick together love you all be safe🙏🏾❤️" Knowles shared in one of her posts yesterday.

While these bits of comedy have usually come with positive reception, one Instagram user was not a fan, commenting "Girl, take them bangs and disappear with your daughter and grandchildren for a little while. We don't need this right now," under a post. Ms. Knowles, however, would not take this sitting down. The Shade Room captured her since-deleted comment saying, "First of all I am not a girl. So try to conjure up a little respect and secondly if you don't need it then get off my page and go where you like what you see. With love❤️."
