Keep shinin'. Love and respect, Beyoncé," the "Texas Hold 'Em" singer scrawled to Guyton, who also shared a snap of a massive bouquet of white flowers. In a note to K.

"My hope be that years from now, an artist's race in relation to music genres be irrelevant," she declared with a heart as big as the seven seas.
