What We Know About The Heist Targeting Beyonce
Beyoncé made history at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards on March 14, 2021, becoming the female artist and the singer of any gender with the most Grammys, with 28 awards. Although she wasn't confirmed to attend, Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z made a surprise appearance near the end of the telecast. The "Black Parade" singer accompanied Megan Thee Stallion on stage after their collaboration "Savage" won Best Rap Performance, after which host Trevor Noah broke the news to Beyoncé, leading to a thousand memes on social media of her shocked face.
While the Grammys marked a celebratory evening for Beyoncé and her family — Blue Ivy became the second-youngest Grammy winner for her feature in "Brown Skin Girl" — it turns out the singer suffered quite a financial loss earlier in the month. Queen Bey was the target of a heist, which seem to be on the rise in Hollywood, with Miley Cyrus falling victim to thieves as well. Here's what we know about the heist involving Beyoncé.
Beyonce suffered material losses in the heist
According to TMZ, thieves broke into three of Beyoncé's storage units in Los Angeles, and stole "more than $1 million worth of valuables." Law enforcement sources told the outlet that the thieves stole twice from Beyoncé and took off with her expensive handbags and dresses. The storage units were rented out by her production company, Parkwood Entertainment, but all the items that thieves stole belonged to Beyoncé.
The same source added that the thieves "took down 3 storage units" located in the same facility within a week and made off with "kids toys and photos belonging to one of Beyoncé's stylists."
As of this writing, law enforcement has not yet identified the thieves who stole from Beyoncé nor has the singer issued a statement. However, given how protective Beyoncé's fans are of their idol, we're sure it won't take long for them to assist the police with their findings.
