Beyonce called in a concert for a moment of silence for Trayvon Martin, rapper, Young Jeezy released a song in Martin’s memory and Russell Simmons called for peace after George Zimmerman was acquitted by a Florida jury in the death of the teenager.

There was a wide range of reactions by celebrities after jurors cleared Zimmerman late Saturday of all charges in the 2012 shooting death of the unarmed 17-year-old Martin. Beyonce took a moment to honor Martin during her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour concert at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn.

Her concert started about 30 minutes after the Zimmerman verdict began to circulate. “I’d like to have a moment of silence for Trayvon,” the pop star said as the stage grew dark with just a few key lights shining.

Beyonce then sang the chorus of “I Will Always Love You,” a song, fittingly given the location, written by country music star Dolly Parton and brought to a global audience by the late Whitney Houston, before transitioning into her hit “Halo.”
