BEYONCE HITS BACK OVER RACIAL CLAIMS!
Beyonce has hit back at claims she is not attending this week's MOBOs in Glasgow because the city is too "white".
The diva is nominated for a MOBO but won't be in Scotland for the awards.
But she is adamant it has nothing to do with where the event is being held.
As she performed for cancer patients at a hospital in Singapore, the Crazy In Love singer said of the claims: "That's just not true."
Paul McKenzie, former MOBO panelist, 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.
"Glasgow just isn't sexy and it's a very white city. Even Leeds, Cardiff or Birmingham would have made more sense. It's not a big draw for US artists.
"Ask any US artist where Scotland is and they'd probably struggle."
But Beyonce's team refute that and say the star simply could not have been at this year's event.
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."
NOW THEY KNOW BEYONCE IS NOT RACIST....OR IS SHE?LOL JUST JOKING!
