Hov and Queen Bey took a vacation to cuba to celebrate thier anniversary. and the fall-out from it came in many different forms. There were anti-Castro advocates speaking out, as well as Republicans, including senator Rubio. Rubio released two statements concerning the trip, demanding an explanation from President Obama. While President Obama didn't exactly explain anything pertaining to the trip, he did answer a question about it, confirming the White House had no part in it.
President Obama said while on The Today Show, "I wasn't familiar that they were taking the trip. My understanding is, I think they went through a group that organizes these educational trips down to Cuba. This is not something the White House was involved with. We've got better things to do."
