Beyoncé has recently decided to postpone her January 14th announcement to express her solidarity with LA wildfire victims.

On Tuesday, the Single Ladies hit-maker took to Instagram and posted a statement regarding the delay of her much-anticipated announcement due to LA fires.

“The January 14th announcement will be postponed to a later date due to the devastation caused by the ongoing wildfires around areas of Los Angeles,” wrote the 43-year-old.

Beyoncé further said that she “continues to pray for healing and rebuilding for the families suffering from trauma and loss”.

The songstress also appreciated the “brave first responders” who she believed “continue to work tirelessly to protect the Los Angeles community”.

In the caption, Beyoncé also added that her foundation “BeyGOOD LA Fire Relief Fund” donated $2.5 million “to the families” who lost their homes due to devastating infernos.
