LONDON, UK  [Monday Oct.2.2006]  /WMQT.com/ -- Last week, we reported that Beyonce failed to show up at the London-based MOBO awards.

The latest word on the no-show is that the diva wanted to avoid bumping into former Destiny Child LeToya Luckett, and rumored rival Rihanna.

LeToya and Beyonce have not been on the best terms since their uncomfortable split a while back, and some hold that Rihanna inspired the song "Ring The Alarm" after messing with Beyonce's man, Jay-Z.

Beyonce's rep claims the star was never scheduled to be at the show at all.
