Since her resounding defeat of Ronda Rousey in Melbourne earlier this month, UFC star Holly Holm is suddenly everywhere in the media, which is a good thing for us, because it means we get to enjoy stories like the below.
Holm was recently a guest at a Jay-Z and Beyoncé-hosted VIP viewing party for a boxing match, but when she met the musical power couple, things took a turn.
As she explained to KRQE in Albuquerque:
“I meet Jay Z and he says, ‘This is my wife,’ and I’m like, ‘Oh, hi, what’s your name?’ Because that’s what I do when I meet someone’s wife … And as I’m shaking her hand, I’m thinking, ‘Why did I just say that? Why did I just say that to Beyoncé?’”
Holly went back and apologised profusely, and to make things worse, Bey was super nice an understanding about it. Watch:
