Despite a few headline-grabbing naysayers, the general response to Beyonce and Kelly Rowland‘s impassioned speeches at Kamala Harris‘ rally in their hometown of Houston on Friday (October 25) have been overwhelmingly positive.
And while the music divas’ respective fan bases – affectionately called the #Beyhive and #RowlandStones – are still trying to catch their collective breaths over the energizing appearances, some still question why their fellow ‘Lose My Breath’ hitmaker Michelle Williams was absent from the festivities.

The top guest on Tuesday’s episode (October 29), Michelle talked everything from ‘Death Becomes Her’ to Black women’s representation on Broadway and more.

I couldn’t be there, but they represented and held me down in their own way.”

Michelle quipped this isn’t the first time fans have questioned her absence when Bey and Kelly were photographed together.

We ain’t together all the time,” she joked. “We are together more than people think, but there are times I’m not able to be [there]. I got stuff that prevents me from being at places y’all think I should be at.”

My gurl Michelle ain’t got time for these useless fake ass b I tc h es. She is taking on high road and having a tea party with Trump. Plus this is not a Destiny’s Child reunion event so all these ignorant people needs to realize that. # TRUMP 2024✊🏻👊🏻
Fistfucking the ping pong balls right in your loose holes. The old orange fart knows your poor chopstick problems.

Normani wasn’t there. That poor flop probably didn’t care to vote at all🤣😂🤡
Thought it was because she’s not from Houston.
Replace her with LeToya
