Man…folks are not too happy with Omari Hadwick.

See, the Power actor must have been hyped when he saw JAY-Z and Beyoncé at the 2019 NAACP Image Awards. So much so, that he thought it was a good idea to come up to Bey, hug her and kiss her twice.

No maybe this wouldn’t have been such a big deal if they were cool like that, but given Bey’s reluctance and awkward body language, she’s looking at him like he’s a damn stranger. That, and why he is so close to her lips?

Take a look:

 

50 Cent added his two cents to the situation, clowning the actor for doing too much.

While there were definitely a few folks who didn’t think this encounter was a big deal, the Beyhive and plenty of Black Twitter were not here for this violation of Mrs. Carter’s boundaries.

Here are they reminding Omari and other men of why it’s important to address Black women with more discretion and respect.
