B. Simone Criticized After Claiming She Won't Date a Man With 9-5 Job

B. Simone is looking for a man; however, her dating requirements have ignited some backlash.

During a recent appearance on Nick Cannon's radio show, the self-proclaimed "Manifest Queen" revealed she has been living the single life for the last seven years and was finally ready to be in a relationship. Cannon told Simone there were plenty of men who were interested and that he would be willing to set her up on a blind date—but first, he needed to know what kind of guy she was looking for.

Simone, 30, explained she was looking for someone a little older and who didn't have a 9-to-5 job. You can probably guess which of those comments caused a stir.

"What?!?" Cannon responded (6:04). "Why not? You don't want him to have an honest job?"

"I mean, he could be a hustling entrepreneur," Simone responded.

"So you want CEO status?" Cannon said.

"Yes," Simone replied.

Simone went on to say there was nothing wrong with a job that requires someone to clock in and out at a certain time, but she believes entrepreneurs should date other entrepreneurs. Why? Because they could understand each other's lifestyles.

Tory Lanez was among those who reminded Simone there were plenty of 9-to-5 men who make bank—sometimes more than well-known entertainers.

Simone took to social media shortly after the criticism began pouring in. She told her followers she once had a 9-to-5 and has also dated a guy with 9-to-5, but she was now looking for someone who shared her lifestyle and mindset.

"Ain't nothing wrong with a n***a with a 9-to-5. I get it, they work hard," Simone said. "... You work, you got money. I get that. I need an entrepreneur. I need someone who understands my mindset. It has nothing to do with money, everything to do with lifestyle."
