Beyoncé accused of ‘extreme witchcraft’ by former employee

This is not the first time she has been accused of dabbling in the dark arts.


Court documents filed by Kimberly Thompson, Beyoncé’s former drummer, in pursuit of a civil harassment restraining order against the singer include a number of bizarre allegations such as practising “extreme witchcraft”, “magic spells of sexual molestation” to harass her and murdering Thompson’s pet kitten.

The court documents, which have been viewed by various American publications such as Pitchfork and The Blast, show that Thompson had a request for a temporary restraining order which was denied by the Los Angeles Superior Court on September 19. There is currently a restraining order hearing scheduled for October 11.

In addition to the witchcraft claims, Thompson alleged that Beyoncé tapped into her finances and phone in order to keep tabs on her.

Beyoncé has, in the past, been subject to speculation of her links to the occult which sparked rumours that she and her husband are members of the secret society called The Illuminati. She has previously addressed and denied these claims in a song.
