Beyoncé’s publicist is asking the Beyhive to stop “spewing hate” at Nicole Curran, the wife of Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob.
In a viral video from Game 3 on Wednesday night, Curran can be seen leaning past the singer to talk to Jay-Z.
Many fans of Beyoncé noticed her less-than-enthusiastic reaction to her husband’s conversation with Curran and began to post about it online.

Curran has also addressed the viral clip of herself and the famous couple.
According to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, Curran was “in tears” after getting home from the basketball game and she “had been getting death threats on social media.”
“Just spoke to Nicole Curran, the wife of Warriors owner Joe Lacob, about the “incident “ with Beyoncé last night. She was in tears. Said she had been getting death threats on social media all night this morning she disabled her IG account just to make it stop,” she tweeted.
“Curran said she had no idea anything was even amiss until she got home and started seeing texts from friends and checked her social media. She’s invited Jay Z and Beyoncé to the game 3-4 times before. Last night she says she asked if they wanted drinks. Beyoncé asked for water,” she wrote in a follow-up tweet.
“Curran says Jay Z asked for a vodka soda. She asked if he wanted lime with that. But it was loud in Oracle and she couldn’t hear, so she leaned over. That’s where the photos of Beyoncé looking askance at her come from,” she wrote.

Curran told Shelburne that the incident wasn’t hostile and she cannot believe the outrage that has followed.
“Curran says she then went to go get them those drinks. “There was no hostility. I was trying to be a good hostess,” she said. “I’ve never experienced cyberbullying like this. I can’t believe our players go through this. That kids go through this.“
Curran also commented on The Shade Room’s post before deactivating her Instagram account.
“All of this has been taken out of context,” she continued. “I am a happily married woman. Telling me to kill myself?????? Somehow I don’t think she would support this.”
Beyoncé has not addressed the incident publicly as of this writing.
