Wife of Golden State Warriors Owner Says She Got Death Threats Over Beyoncé Encounter

Nicole Curran, the wife of Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob, says she was forced to delete her Instagram page after getting death threats from crazed Beyoncé fans.

Curran made news on Wednesday night when fans perceived an interaction between her, Bey and Jay-Z as something negative. As a result, Curran says she was harassed by the Beyhive and had to delete her Instagram page.

She told ESPN superstar reporter Ramona Shelburne that she was left in tears after getting death threats on social media all night. Curran said she had no idea anything was wrong until she got home from the game and started getting messages from friends.

Curran explains the now-infamous exchange, telling Shelburne that Jay-Z asked for a vodka soda and Curran asked if he wanted a lime with that. But, as one would expect, it was very loud in the arena, so she leaned over so she could hear him better. Curran says she then got Jay-Z his drink and Beyoncé hers (she only wanted water).

“There was no hostility. I was trying to be a good hostess,” Curran told Shelburne. “I’ve never experienced cyberbullying like this. I can’t believe our players go through this. That kids go through this.”

Beyonceé and Jay-Z have yet to comment on the incident.
