Kelly Rowland is booked, busy, and unbothered.
The GRAMMY-winning diva, who is hot on the promo trail for her new Paramount+ movie ‘Fantasy Football,’ dominated headlines this week for clapping back at Hot 97 radio DJ Peter Rosenberg for saying she ‘plays second’ to former bandmate/best friend Beyonce.
“Light attracts light, and I am light. So I am a beautiful brown shining light. I don’t think anybody’s light dims anyone else’s,” she told Rosenberg at the time. ”I think that when other people start to compare you, I think that shows how dim they are of themselves.”
Once she was done, Twitter united to continue the drag – not only slamming Peter for his problematic commentary but also giving the ‘Flowers‘ singer her flowers for the work she’s done as a solo act across movies and music for the last 20 years.
Although the uproar prompted the DJ to quickly lend an apology, Rowland – instead of directly responding to him – opted to thank her fans and admirers for the massive outpour of support.
