Beyonce was at yesterday’s Kobe Bryant Memorial, and she was amazing. Beyonce and Vanessa Bryant have been friends for many years. So Bey was not just there as a performer, she actually knew and loved Kobe and Gigi.
And Beyonce gave an amazing and soul felt performance to close out the memorial.
But some folks who were at the Kobe Bryant memorial, are saying that Beyonce was behaving like a “diva.” And she is also being criticized for refusing to wear Black at the service.
For one, Beyonce had her security prohibit photographers from taking her picture while at the event.
MTO News has confirmed that photographers already had an agreement in place with the Bryant family – to not photograph Kobe’s children. But Beyonce’s team forced photographers to agree to also not photograph her, which is unusual.
And Beyonce’s choice of attire was a bit controversial also. While every single member of Kobe’s family, and his friends were all in Black – Beyonce chose to wear a bright yellow outfit – which made her stand out in the crowd.
Some of Kobe’s fans – especially on social media – are a little upset with Beyonce wearing yellow. They believe that she was trying to steal the spotlight at the memorial service.
