Another explained, “I think the ‘until we meet again’ [through] people off. People usually say that when someone passes. But no she is very much alive. She visited and left so I get the post.”

Henson caught similar flak in January 2023 when she visited Simmons following allegations of rape and sexual misconduct against him.

She also isn’t the only celebrity who has been side-eyed for visiting the former Def Jam executive. Fans took to social media to express similar disappointment in Usher, MC Lyte, and LisaRaye.
