Cape Town - The Real co-host Tamera Mowry-Housley recently recalled how she met music mogul Jay-Z long before he was with Beyoncé during a segment of the show – and oh boy was the Beyhive not impressed.
Tamera recalled during an episode how she met Jigga when she was 23-years-old at a movie premier and how smitten she was with his charm even though she did preface the entire story with, "It was before he was with Beyoncé."
The legion wasn’t going to have any of her flirtatious moment of nostalgia and if there’s anything we’ve learned from the Beyhive it’s that they won’t stop at anything to protect their queen especially after the 'Becky with the good hair' saga.
"I actually met Jay-Z in person and he wasn’t with Beyoncé at the time and I wasn’t dating anybody. And when I met him you do get like hit with the charm. I found myself strangely asking for gum," the mother-of-two reminisced on the encounter.
"It’s so weird…I swear. My sister and I were at a premier of Nutty Professor and he walked by and I was like 'Oh my God that’s Jay-Z' and I was like 'Can I have some gum?' and he gave me some gum…" she added.
Although she admitted that it was before she met her husband Adam, she further continued that she "was attracted to him in the moment."
While the story might’ve come from an innocent place, Bey’s fans weren’t having any of it.
Some fans even took it as far as adding bee emoji’s to an Instagram post she had shared of herself and her husband.
"Why you reminiscing on a married man," a Bey fan commented.
One Twitter user even asked if she was "blushing while recalling meeting Jay-Z?"
