Cuff It hitmaker Beyoncé paid tribute to her late dancer O’Shae Sibley after he was stabbed over the weekend while voguing to her Renaissance album.
Beyonce took to her official website to pay tribute. “REST IN POWER O’SHAE SIBLEY,” she wrote.
According to reports, footage taken by one of his friends Otis Pena shows several men were seen approaching the group and beginning to shout gay slurs at them. The situation grew hostile, and Sibley was stabbed.
The New York City Police Department is investigating the death of Sibley as a possible hate crime.
Sibley was killed at a Coney Island gas station while out with friends.
Beyoncé dedicated her seventh studio album Renaissance to her Uncle Jonny, who she affectionately dubbed her ‘godmother and the first person to expose me to a lot of the music and culture that serve as inspiration for this album.’
