In his September single “ Bandz a Make Her Dance,” Juicy J boasts of his inability to refuse the advances of “ratchet” women.

LL Cool J released a single named “ Ratchet” last November, using the word as an adjective to describe a woman who is only after a man’s money. One of Beyoncé’s skills is trend-spotting, and indeed ratchet has been all over popular culture in the past year. Fueling the fires were comments Azealia Banks made to MTV Brazil that she and Lady Gaga were working on a song called “Ratchet.” Because Lady Gaga had posted a picture with earrings similar to those in the Beyoncé photograph in September, it was thought that the two megastars, and perhaps Banks, too, could be working on a follow-up to their hit single “Telephone.” Eventually, Beyoncé’s representative told the Cut: “There is no confirmation on any song titles.” Last December, when Beyoncé posted a picture on Instagram wearing doorknocker earrings inscribed with the word ratchet, the Internet exploded with speculation: It would be the title of a new single she and Lady Gaga were collaborating again she was shaking up her image it was the name of her next album.

Oh, and exploding toads.Photo: Clockwise from top left: beyonce/Instagram beyonce/Instagram ladygaga/Instagram Warning.Fore! This title contains explicit sex, and a love story hazardous to your hankie supply. Shaken to her college-nerd core, Jillian begins to wonder if giving him a taste of love-'em-and-leave-'em is what she wants after all. Every move he makes is the right one, both in bed and out of it. Except the more rope she gives him to hang himself, the more he ties her up in knots. Just one wrong move from Ben, one more disappointment, and Jillian will finally be able to stop obsessing about her college crush, leave town, and get on with her life. Is she really interested in him, or merely seeking fodder for her Dating Diva column?

That woman was nothing like this platinum blonde from New York-confident, poised.and hitting on him like crazy. He’s felt this magnetic pull only once before, for a bespectacled brunette back in college.

Giving him just enough rope…to tie her up in knots There's something wildly enchanting about the columnist who arrives at Ben Cannon's golf resort.
