Brew Bits: They Shootin’?

Various news outlets reported gun violence outside of Beyonce’s Wednesday night concert in Brazil. Sources say the concert in the city of Salvador was marred by violence when people outside the venue started shooting at fans leaving the arena, causing police to return fire. No one was hurt.

But now, Beyonce’s reps are denying anything ever happened, saying her tour has been a major success (despite reports she had to give tickets away in Argentina). Her people tell US Magazine “the reports of gunfire during Beyonce's concert in Brazil that allegedly ended her show early are totally false. Beyonce played to record crowds on her recent tour in Brazil without incident, including an audience of 60,000 in Sao Paulo on Saturday, February 6 and two sold-out shows in Rio on February 7 and 8."

Hmmmm. Gunfire in Brazil? Imagine that.
