Beyonce's reaction during Game 3 of the NBA finals when a woman leaned across her to talk to her husband Jay Z has gone viral.

The 37-year-old singer-songwriter is seen in a short clip trying her best to enjoy the finals. However, she is constantly interrupted by Nicole Curran -- wife of Golden State Warriors' owner Joe Lacob -- who wanted to indulge in a chat with the world famous rapper, Daily Mail reports.

Beyonce's smile visibly turns into a frown as she waits for their conversation to end. Her fuming reaction has since gone viral and sparked an inundation of memes comparing Curran to "Becky with the good hair."



 

Sitting in the middle of Jay Z and Curran, Beyonce can be seen getting increasingly frustrated as her husband enjoys a conversation with Lacob's wife.

The star couldn't seem to hold back her aggravation despite doing her best to smile and wave at onlookers. Instead, she is seen desperately waiting for the pair to conclude their conversation before shoving Nicole slightly at the end of the clip.

What's more? Beyonce's fans stormed Twitter right after the tabloid moment made rounds of the internet. Many of the reactions defending Beyonce were markedly creative and hilarious.

"I would leave the earth if Beyonce looked this ready to smack me," commented a fan on the video.

"Who’s the b**** annoying Beyoncé?!", "Beyonce is about to kill this woman." and "Can you imagine sitting next to Beyoncé.. and not trying to talk to BEYONCÉ instead?" were some of the other comments.

Fans also poked fun at Beyonce's courtside mood and were quick to reference a cheating scandal two years ago. In November 2017, Jay Z admitted to cheating on his bombshell wife following the singer's 2016 album 'Lemonade'. The record featured a song in which she addressed Jay's alleged affair with "Becky with the good hair."

"Beyonce: 'This Becky with the good hair bout to get her wig split'," one wrote.

While another quipped: "Somebody betta tell Becky she betta BACK UP OFF BEY! #NBAFinals."
