Kelly Rowland is booked, busy, and unbothered.

The GRAMMY-winning diva, who is hot on the promo trail for her new Paramount+ movie ‘Fantasy Football,’  dominated headlines this week for clapping back at Hot 97 radio DJ Peter Rosenberg for saying she ‘plays second’ to former bandmate/best friend Beyonce.

“Light attracts light, and I am light. So I am a beautiful brown shining light. I don’t think anybody’s light dims anyone else’s,” she told Rosenberg at the time. ”I think that when other people start to compare you, I think that shows how dim they are of themselves.”

Once she was done, Twitter united to continue the drag – not only slamming Peter for his problematic commentary but also giving the ‘Flowers‘ singer her flowers for the work she’s done as a solo act across movies and music for the last 20 years.

Although the uproar prompted the DJ to quickly lend an apology, Rowland – instead of directly responding to him – opted to thank her fans and admirers for the massive outpour of support.

Look inside to see what she said.

Taking to Twitter Thursday (November 17) at the height of the hoopla, Kelly shared her gratitude for the thousands of tweets that praised her Rosenberg clap back.

“Have the most amazing day Twitterville! Thank you all for your love & support,” she started the tweet. “I know y’all got my back! And that made me do a happy dance this [morning]!”

The tweet came amid a busy week of promo for the singer-actress who was spotted everywhere from ‘The Today Show’ to ‘The Talk’ and more plugging the new movie (which also stars Marsai Martin and Omari Hardwick).

During her visit on the latter, Rowland dished about the film and her already-lined up next acting gig – a guest spot on Queen Latifah‘s hit CBS show, ‘The Equalizer.’

“I play a superstar by the name of Misty and I get a really crazy letter and the Equalizer shows up and helps me figure it out. And Queen Latifah is literally, exactly who she is. She is a queen…I love her so much,” she said at the video’s 2:37 mark.

In a separate interview from the week Kelly shared her elation over Rihanna‘s 2023 Super Bowl halftime show.

When quizzed on what advice she’d give the Bajan beauty, the 41-year-old reflected on her time sharing the stage with Destiny’s Child at 2013’s big game.

“Rehearse like crazy,” she told ‘Good Morning Football’ (at the video’s 6 minute mark). “You want to know all your footing on the stage. I know for me I jumped onto the stage [at the 2013 halftime show]. There was something shooting me into the air to fall onto the ground in heels, by the way, and I did that. So, it’s that moment.”
