Beyonce has denied she is not attending MOBO awards in Glasgow because city is
Posted in Beyonce Knowles, Music Award, Music People on the September 29, 2009
Singer Beyonce has denied reports she is not attending the upcoming MOBO awards in Glasgow, Scotland because the city is “too white”.
Beyonce, 28, is nominated for an award at the bash but will not be attending the ceremony to pick up the gong.
After performing for cancer patients at a hospital in Singapore, the singer was asked about the rumours and she said: “That’s just not true.”
Former MOBO panelist Paul McKenzie said: “The real problem is getting the stars to go to Glasgow. I can understand why the MOBOs went to Glasgow - because they were having problems getting the council to foot the bill for security. But it doesn’t work.”
Beyonce’s team are insisting that the star was just not able to attend the bash.
An insider said: “The slur about Glasgow is just not true. Beyonce knows exactly where it is.
“I think you’ll find that Beyonce is not the type of person to be impressed by the idea that she would snub one city over the other. Glasgow was good enough for her when she toured the UK. She thought the audience were wonderful.”
