Fingertip bitten off at Beyonce-Jay-Z concert
A Beyonce Knowles and Jay Z concertgoer has apparently had his finger bitten off.
The married musicians are currently in the midst of their On The Run Tour and played a show at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles on Saturday night.
According to the LA Times, a man named Robert Alcaraz-Garnica has been arrested following an incident that kicked off in the crowds.
Alcaraz-Garnica was accused of groping a woman in the audience, according to eyewitnesses. The woman’s boyfriend is thought to have initiated a fight in response.
During the brawl, Alcaraz-Garnica reportedly bit down on the boyfriend’s finger, with others at the concert claiming the digit was completely severed. However, police will only confirm that “serious injury” was caused.
Alcaraz-Garnica, 25, was subsequently arrested in the venue on suspicion of sexual battery and mayhem and was transferred to LA County jail on Sunday.
There were ten other arrests at the concert on Saturday, with eight related to drunkenness and two to ticket scalping.
It’s been a turbulent time for pop’s power couple. It’s rumoured their relationship is on the rocks since Beyonce’s sister Solange was filmed attacking Jay in an elevator in May – an incident Beyonce refers to in the recently-released remix of Flawless with Nicki Minaj, in which she raps that “sh*t goes down” when you’re rich.
According to the New York Post’s Page Six, those who know the couple worry the tour will be halted before its scheduled end in Paris on September 13.
Apparently the couple had an “emergency meeting” last week to discuss how they would go ahead.
“They’re not just staying in different hotel rooms, but they have booked separate hotels, and they arrive separately to each show,” the insider claimed.
“They’ve had discussions lately about the inevitable sit-down interview when they finally do split, and Jay’s been adamant that he doesn’t want Beyonce sitting down with Barbara Walters or Oprah Winfrey pretending to be the victim.”

‘True Blood’ family take in capital sights
Oscar-winning actress Anna Paquin has not escaped the attention of fans while visiting her home town.
The former Wellington Girls’ College student, famous for her best supporting actress role in The Piano and, more recently, for her role in TV series True Blood, has been embracing the capital with her husband and True Blood co-star, Stephen Moyer, and their twins.
The young family enjoyed lunch at Caffe Astoria on Friday, where True Blood enthusiast Connor Harris says he got the thrill of serving them.
“They came in for a family lunch on Friday and were just lovely, friendly people. If you didn’t know who they were, they could have been anyone.”
Paquin and Moyer wore baby harnesses for carrying their almost 2-year-old twins, Poppy and Charlie.
“Everyone just left them alone, but we were pretty excited to have them here,” Harris said.
The couple have also been seen shopping at Kirkcaldie & Stains. Wellingtonian Asher Goldman took to Twitter yesterday to say he had spotted the family in Lambton Quay.
