Beyoncé's Publicist Speaks Out After That Viral Side-Eye Moment

Hold up, Beyhive! It's time to let up on your sting.

As fans are well aware, Beyoncé made headlines yesterday after she was caught giving the wife of the Golden State Warriors owner some serious side-eye for leaning over her at Wednesday's game to talk to Jay-Z The woman, Nicole Curran, soon felt the wrath of the singer's fans, who were quick to defend their queen. Now, Beyoncé's publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, is speaking out about the hate.

"I am looking back today at the start of The OTRII tour, one year ago," she wrote alongside a photo of Bey and Jay from the concert series. "It was a place of joy, unimaginable entertainment from two of the best performers in the world, and a place of love. Every single day on that tour I saw love. Which is why I also want to speak here to the beautiful BeyHiVE. I know your love runs deep but that love has to be given to every human. It will bring no joy to the person you love so much if you spew hate in her name. We love you."

Curran, who has reportedly received death threats over the incident and deleted her Instagram account, also addressed Beyoncé's fan base on Thursday and assured them she meant no harm.

"Listen Beehive," she commented on a picture, according to The Shade Room. "I respect Queen B. I love her! I talked to her husband twice tonight. First, to take a drink order for them both when they arrived as they were our guests. Second, to explain why I gave his wife a rose from a fan. All of this has been taken out of context. I am a happily married woman. Telling me to kill myself?????? Somehow I don't think she would support this."

In addition, she posted a picture of herself in which she appears to be fixing the "Formation" artist's hair.

"We should all help and support each other," she captioned the shot.

Curran also opened up about the hate she has received during an interview with ESPN.

"I've never experienced cyberbullying like this," she told the outlet. "I can't believe our players go through this. That kids go through this."

Now, it looks like Beyoncé wants to put an end to all the drama.

Border patrol agent saves woman and son from thousands of bees

The agent discovers the woman in the foetal position after searching for the source of a swarm in Texas.

A US border patrol agent rushed a mother and son to hospital after finding them covered in thousands of bees in Texas.

The agent was patrolling the Rio Grande River in Brownsville when a "small swarm of bees" entered his patrol car, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said.

After clearing the bees from his vehicle, he went to see where they were coming from - and found a jacket and a bundle covered in thousands of bees.

As he looked, he realised the bundle was a person curled up in the foetal position.

He told the woman from Guatemala to run to his car, and noticed she was shielding her eight-year-old son.

Once the migrants were in the car he called an ambulance, but decided to take them to hospital himself after the child began vomiting.

Hospital staff say they are expected to recover after being admitted to intensive care.

They will be "processed accordingly" once they have been "medically cleared", CBP said.

New York's High Line park celebrates 10th anniversary

The project transformed an abandoned, elevated freight line into a public walk that now attracts millions of visitors a year.

New York City's High Line is celebrating its 10th anniversary, with the tourist attraction marking the occasion by opening its final piece.

The project transformed an abandoned, elevated freight line into a public walk that now attracts an estimated eight million annual visitors.

A decade on, the High Line is widely accepted to have transformed a neighbourhood known for industrial buildings, car parks and car repair shops.

Now the area includes the Whitney Museum of American Art and Hudson Yards, a $25bn (£19.6bn) development of skyscrapers, shops and a performing arts centre.

When it opened on 9 June 2009, then-mayor Michael Bloomberg promised the 1.5-mile (2.4km) park in Manhattan would be an "extraordinary gift to our city's future".

But there is a debate as to whether it has exacerbated the area's gentrification and become a victim of its own success.

In the beginning, the park was noted for its ability to lift visitors above the streets below and give them a unique view, unimpeded by high-rise buildings.
