Beyonce really must be insecure in her marriage if someone doing this gets her so pissed off. Hive or no hive, Beyonce is entitled to any kind of unpleasantness that anyone else may experience.

I don't think it had anything to do with that lady at all. Looks to me like she moved away from JZ when he ordered a drink. Maybe that's the issue …alcohol! Did she ask Beyonce if she wanted a drink?

As the above reactions suggest, the people were clearly not happy with how Beyonce acted. Interestingly enough, while Jay-Z was talking to the wife of the Warriors’ owner, the Rapper is a former owner himself.
He is a longtime fan of the Brooklyn Nets and he had bought a stake in the team. However, Jay-Z sold his stakes in 2013 after acquiring a neat profit.
