Honors Trayvon Martin
Following Not Guilty Verdict

Beyonce interrupted her own concert last night to take a moment of silence for Trayvon Martin ... right after news broke that jurors found his shooter, George Zimmerman, not guilty.

It happened at Bey's Nashville concert Saturday. About 30 minutes before the singer took the stage, news broke that Zimmerman was acquitted of both the 2nd degree murder charge and manslaughter charge in the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon.

After the moment of silence, Beyonce sang the chorus of "I Will Always Love You" (above), before leading into her own gut-wrenching ballad "Halo".

Matthew Morrison
Honors Cory Monteith
'Glee' Way -- Through Song
"Glee" co-star Matthew Morrison took time out of a performance Sunday to pay tribute to Cory Monteith ... in the most "Glee" way possible ... belting out a Broadway show tune.

Matthew -- who plays Finn Hudson's mentor / teacher on the show -- played a gig at 54 Below in NYC. Prior to the set, Matthew addressed the tragedy of Cory's sudden death and referred to the actor as a brother ... as reported by the NY Times.

Matthew then changed his opening number -- and dedicated the song to Cory.

He chose "What I Did For Love" -- a show tune from "A Chorus Line" -- which was also featured on "Glee" Season 2 and sung by Lea Michele.
