Holly Holm recalls foot-in-mouth moment she asked Jay Z what his wife's name was

Holly Holm has found overnight success after beating out Ronda Rousey as the UFC women’s bantamweight champion and she’s revealing an embarrassing story having to do with Jay Z and Beyonce.

Holm talked to New Mexico’s KRQE and opened up about how life has changed since her win, saying she hopes things will stay the same at home in Albuquerque.

“My life has changed a little bit,” she said. “Hopefully everything will be somewhat normal at home.”

One way life has changed is she’s rubbing shoulders with Jay Z and Beyonce, but she admitted she got tripped up when she met the “7/11” singer in their VIP suite after the fight.

“I met Jay Z and he says this is my wife and I say, ‘Oh, hi what is your name?’ That is what I do when I meet someone’s wife,” she explained. “As I am shaking her hand I am thinking ‘why did I just say that?’ ”

Beyonce was gracious about it and told her to forget about it.
