Beyoncé Dancer Apologizes for Cruise Ship Stage Drama
23 Apr
Summary
- Beyoncé's dance captain apologized for her cruise ship claims.
- She initially accused the cruise line of racial discrimination.
- The dancer later clarified it was a guest, not staff, issue.

Ashley Everett, a dance captain for Beyoncé, has walked back her previous accusations against Virgin Voyages. Everett initially posted on social media, alleging that she was removed from a stage during a performance on a Virgin Voyages cruise. She suggested the incident was racially motivated, claiming white guests were allowed on the same stage after she was asked to leave.
However, Everett has since apologized and clarified the situation. In a recent social media statement, she explained that her frustration was misdirected and the incident did not involve Virgin Voyages staff. She stated that it was actually other guests who were involved, and she takes full responsibility for the misunderstanding and her initial public statements.
