Selena Gomez generates controversy to see ‘Knicks’ game in Beyoncé’s concert

The center of the controversy: Selena Gomezwho attended the concert of Beyoncé in it Metlife Stadium New Jersey as part of the tour “Cowboy Carter”. Among the photos of the show he published, one in particular caught the attention: an image of his phone showing the live broadcast of the party between the Knicks and the Pacers.

The publication, accompanied by the text “Still Got My Eye On The Game”caused an immediate reaction. Some users strongly criticized Gomez, accusing her of lack of respect for Beyoncé and of someone’s own behavior “disconnected from reality.” In Reddit, a user commented: “I am not surprised. Rich people cannot appreciate things because they have destroyed the center of pleasure in their brain by always obtaining what they want. Selena will never know a pinch of happiness that I felt in the cheap seats.”

However, other voices came out in defense of the singer. They pointed out that the coincidence of the concert with a crucial party of the Knicks, which do not reach the finals of the NBA since 1999, I could explain your attitude. An X user argued: “I live in New York and many friends who went to the concert of Cowboy Carter also saw the game on their phones … I am not a basketball fan, but it was apparently a great event.” Another added: “To be fair, the last time the Knicks won a championship, Beyoncé was not born. Let’s let people enjoy two things.”

The debate extended, with arguments that pointed to constant accessibility to information through smartphones, a phenomenon that affects everyone, regardless of their social status. Some users even questioned the sense of criticism, emphasizing the importance of the playoff game for the Knicks fans, a team that seeks to break a long drought of championships, their last victory dating from 1973. The game, it should be remembered, ended with victory of the Knicks 106-100 over the Pacers, keeping its aspiration alive to the NBA 2025 championship.

The Beyoncé event, on the other hand, attracted a large number of celebrities, including Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, who attended a previous concert in California. The singer, with her “Cowboy Carter” tour initiated on April 28, continues to monopolize media attention.
