The singer shared a tribute on her official website to O'Shae Sibley, a professional dancer who was fatally stabbed in a suspected hate crime after voguing with friends to her 'Renaissance' album at a Brooklyn gas station.

Beyoncé paid tribute to O'Shae Sibley, the 28-year-old dancer and choreographer who was dancing to her music when he was fatally stabbed at a gas station in Brooklyn, New York in what is being investigated as a hate crime.

Sibley was with friends at the gas station and was voguing to Beyoncé's Renaissance album.


Renaissance, which was released last year, celebrates Black and LGBTQ culture and the Harlem ballroom scene during the 1980s where the stylized form of house dance, voguing, was popularized.

Sibley, who was shirtless and wearing neon-pink swimming trunks, was allegedly approached by a group of men who hurled anti-gay slurs and demanded he stop voguing.

The confrontation escalated violently, resulting in Sibley being stabbed.

He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Following news of the tragedy in the LGBTQ+ community, Queen Bey honored Sibley on the homepage of her website.

She wrote:

"Rest in Power O'Shae Sibley."

The suspected murderer who knifed Sibley at the Mobil gas station fled in an SUV and was believed to be a 17-year-old.

Sibley's close friend Otis Pena who witnessed the killing, wrote in a Facebook post:

“They hated us cause we are gay!”
“[They were] screaming we Muslim and we don’t like gays!!!!! As we are innocently pumping gas and ya’ll decided to stab on one of us!!!”

According to the New York Post, police are searching for the suspect seen in surveillance footage.



People expressed outrage over the senseless murder.





Sibley was a dancer and choreographer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania who moved to New York City three years ago. He participated in the Ailey Extension program.

The studio issued a statement reading:

“The Ailey organization mourns the tragic death of O’Shae Sibley, who was a cherished and devoted participant in our Ailey Extension program of dance classes."
“O’Shae had incredible energy in the studio and was loved by instructors and fellow students."
"He recently shone during a special demonstration of West African dance at The Ailey Spirit Gala."
"We are shocked and heartbroken that O’Shae’s life has been taken by senseless violence, and extend our sincere condolences to his family and loved ones.”

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

Economic policy is certainly on everyone's minds these days. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows that Americans are not pleased with President Donald Trump’s management of the economy, leaving him with unfavorable ratings on what is considered the nation’s most important issue.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
