Wife of Golden State Warriors Owner Got Death Threats Over Beyoncé Encounter
Making the news all over in regards to her polite gesture towards Jay-Z, Nicole Curran, the wife of Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob, says she was forced to delete her Instagram page after getting death threats from crazed Beyoncé fans.
Curran made news on Wednesday night when fans perceived an interaction between her, Bey and Jay-Z as something negative. As a result, Curran says she was harassed by the Beyhive and had to delete her Instagram page.
Curran explains the now-infamous exchange, telling a reporter that Jay-Z asked for a vodka soda and Curran asked if he wanted a lime with that. But, as one would expect, it was very loud in the arena, so she leaned over so she could hear him better. Curran says she then got Jay-Z his drink and Beyoncé hers (she only wanted water).
“There was no hostility. I was trying to be a good hostess,” Curran told Shelburne. “I’ve never experienced cyberbullying like this. I can’t believe our players go through this. That kids go through this.”
