Kelly Price isn’t having it after fans reportedly called her out for watching Brian McKnight perform during the Season of Love Part 2: R&B Edition concert on Saturday, June 27. Both singers were on hand to perform at the event in Nassau, Bahamas, and folks did not appreciate seeing Price give McKnight his flowers amid his unfortunate family drama.

Kelly Price Claps Back After Being Roasted By Fans Over Brian McKnight
Price shared footage of herself watching McKnight’s performance with her fans on Instagram, but things quickly took a turn when folks called foul. McKnight faced criticism for failing to support his son, Niko McKnight, as he was dying from cancer last year.
The father and son were estranged when Niko died in May of 2025 at the age of 32. The ‘One Last Cry’ artist has long been canceled by many fans for his part in the family drama, and Price caught strays after she watched his performance on Saturday. LiveBitz captured the Instagram Story and shared the video on June 28.

“I just wanna say don’t come in here talkin’ garbage,” said Price. “This is my concert tonight, too…. I don’t get to be in the audience at concerts.”
Price added that she was merely supporting other artists, and she wasn’t here for the negative comments.
Things Quickly Went Left As Fans Dragged Price, Again
As TSR previously reported, Price faced her own issues with fans last year after she went off on a rant about Black women being her worst critics. Fans were quick to critique the 53-year-old singer again after she shared the video, and they did not mince words in their replies.
