She was
accused (once again) of photoshopping a 'thigh gap' into bikini snaps of
herself after sharing pictures from her birthday.
But
on Wednesday Beyonce seemed keen on defying her critics by posting a
series of photos - apparently unaltered - of herself in hotpants,
revealing her naturally slender legs.
The singer, who turned 33 earlier this month, shared the pictures on Tumblr of herself posing on a boat.
Sticking it to her critics: Beyonce posted a snap of herself with what looked to be a natural thigh gap on Wednesday
In
the snaps, Queen Bey wears a colourful print top with matching bottoms
(in the hot pants variety) as she stood tall in platforms while
clutching a railing on the sea vessel.
The Drunk In Love songstress wore large oversize sunglasses as her limbs were covered in stick on gold tattoos.
In
another picture she poses seductively in black bikini bottoms and a
patterned top while picking up her left leg in a sexy flamingo posture.
Mind the gap: Another photo of the 33-year-old sees her display her legs from another angle
Sunset: Another snap captured the star in a candid moment
It's never-ending! Beyonce posted another bikini snap later on Wednesday as she posed in a flimsy sarong
Clothed this time: The mother-of-one wore a blue-patterned dress as she gazed sultrily at the camera in another shot
But eager eyed fans soon pointed out a
questionable distortion in one image which seems to suggest the singer
had tampered with her pictures in order to create the appearance of
slimmer thighs.
The picture in question sees the star smiling as she struts down the stairs, proudly showing off her bikini body.
However,
the stairs between her thighs tilt up in a diagonal angle which seems
to confirm that the picture has been touched up with an additional tool
before being uploaded to her Tumblr page.
Wonky
step: Fans have once again pounced on a new picture of Beyonce which
seems to indicate that the singer has been doctoring her images before
sharing them online
Shameless: The star also posted a shot of her rear on the same stairs
Fans
flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts as one wrote, ‘Why the hell
is Beyonce photoshopping in a thigh gap?’ and another tweeted,
‘Questionable thigh gap there, Bey. #photoshop #wonkystep #beyonce’.
Another added: ‘beyonce needs to chill out forever photoshopping a thigh gap’
One
fan was less than impressed as they tweeted: ‘@Beyonce uses photoshop!!
Why promote accepting yourself in your videos if you clearly lie about
yourself?’.
Cuties: Beyonce shared a snap of her two-year-old daughter Blue Ivy with a pal on the deck of the yacht
Childhood is bliss: The little ones were seen in silhouette as they looked out of the window at the ocean
Family time: Beyonce enjoyed an al fresco lunch alongside her youthful-looking mother Tina in another snap
The money shot: Jay Z stared out to sea against a city backdrop at night
It was even
suggested that the star uses a similar app as Kim Kardashian has been
accused of using as they wrote: ‘perhaps this image was doctored with
the same app Kim K used’
Some
fans stood up for the Partition hitmaker as one wrote: ‘Beyonce looks
like...well, Beyonce, and all people can do is suggest she Photoshopped a
thigh gap. Give me strength’.
Another said: ‘Really people, if we could all Photoshop our photos we would. Let's just calm down about Beyonce’.
MailOnline has contacted Beyonce's representatives for comment. 
Not
the first time: In April a photo of the star playing golf saw drew
attention due to the appearance of her seemingly slimmed down thighs
