But while Beyoncé was all smiles with her daughter on Thursday, she wasn’t happy when the not guilty verdict was given to George Zimmerman after he killed a young black teenager.

At her concert in Nashville, Tennessee, the superstar said, ‘I’d like to have a moment of silence for Trayvon’ who was shot and killed while unarmed by a neighbourhood watch patrol officer.

According to attendees at the gig, the stage then grew dark before Beyoncé sang the chorus of I Will Always Love You before transitioning into Halo.

And Knowles wasn’t the only musician to use their stage as a platform to share their ill-feelings towards Zimmerman’s acquittal.

Nas dedicated one of his songs at Yahoo! Wireless Festival to the departed teenager, followed by Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest who also said their set was a tribute to Trayvon, but also took the opportunity to ask the crowd to ‘pray for America’.

Beyoncé’s husband Jay-Z shouted ‘RIP Trayvon Martin’ before changing from a white shirt and Brooklyn Nets cap into a black and white T-shirt which read ‘Blame Society’.
