The Hollywood power couple Beyoncé and Jay-z met UFC champion Holly Holm last weekend in a VIP viewing party in Las Vegas, for the Alvarez and Cotto match.
Reportedly, a flock of fans got hold of Holm so security had to get her to a 'safer' place.
Holly Holm asks Beyoncé, "Oh, hi what is your name?"
Apparently, this is what she does when she meets someone's wife. She told KRQE this week, "I meet Jay Z and he says 'this is my wife' and I say 'oh hi what is your name?' That is what I do when I meet someone's wife. As I am shaking her hand I am thinking 'why did I just say that... why did I just say that. It's Beyoncé."
"And Jay Z's asking me about the fight and I can't even focus on what he's saying because I just put my foot in my mouth. And I literally have to interrupt him; I'm like 'I'm really sorry.' And I go back to Beyoncé and I'm like 'Beyoncé, I can't believe I just did that."
Not a good choice of words from Holm. Luckily, Beyoncé did not take offense. She took it rather well, and said that the encounter was refreshing according to KRQE.
"My life has changed a little bit. Hopefully everything will be somewhat normal at home," said Holm. Holm has earned her spotlight in a very modest way. Slowly, she will eventually ease into the world of fame and glamour. It might take a while for her life to go back to normal.
Since her win over Rousey, she has been gaining the attention of the media and other celebrities too. From her TV appearances, piano lessons with Jamie Foxx, to spending time with Mayweather a basketball game.
It's no surprise, really. Holm's strongest suit is her humility. She hasn't let her victory get into her personality.
She even defended Rousey when critics started bombarding her because of her loss. It was a noble act from Holm.
