Question Of The Day: Was Shady Ol’ Matty Knowles Dippin’ His Hands Inside Bey Bey’s Birkin Bag For Some Stacks???

Damn Matty say it ain’t so! According to TMZ reports : Beyonce’s dad has filed legal papers which now explain why the singer fired him as her manager — he claims she’s under the impression he stole lots of money from her, and say it’s a bad rap. In the documents — obtained by TMZ — Mathew Knowles claims Live Nation Entertainment wanted desperately to sink its fangs into Beyonce’s 2011 world tour. According to the docs, Mathew claims Live Nation told Beyonce that Mathew “had stolen money from Beyonce on her most recent tour or otherwise taken funds that [he] was not entitled to.” Mathew claims Live Nation was effective, because Beyonce had her law firm conduct an audit, and the law firm concluded Mathew had indeed pilfered money from her. Beyonce then fired him. Mathew claims after he was canned, Beyonce hired a manager who had worked as a former exec at Live Nation and maintained a relationship with the company. Mathew insists the theft accusations by Live Nation are false, and he wants the judge to give him the right to take depositions of various people at Live Nation, to determine just how they concluded he was a thief. We could not reach Beyonce’s rep for comment. Say cuz, if you needed a couple dollas all you had to do was ask her. Stealing from your own daughter is some ol’ crack fiend type behavior, are you a crack fiend Matty??

In RHOA News: “Old Man” Peter Peter The Punany/Woman Beater Speaks On Battery Charges And Alleged Incarceration

Cynthia Bailey’s poor husband Peter has been falsely accused: “Real Housewives of Atlanta” husband, Peter Thomas, isn’t heading to jail and was recently found not guilty of battery. Despite reports that a charge of simple battery might result in Peter’s incarceration, the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” husband told Sister 2 Sister that there was really no threat of his being found guilty as a result of the incident that happened more than a year ago. According to Peter, his accuser was a woman who was acting up in his restaurant and throwing plates. After asking her to leave, he returned about 30 minutes later and was accused of pushing her. Peter said she slipped and the former employees who testified on his behalf backed his story. Police were called to the scene, which is routine procedure in a case where assault is reported. He was charged and spent 17 hours in jail when the incident first happened. Hmmmm….we guess we’ll believe you on this one Peter! Via Sister 2 Sister

Bolitics: President Obama Has A Tough Time Rallying Support At NYC Fundraiser

President Obama definitely faces an uphill battle is his campaign for re-election in 2012. Although Obama raked in lots of cash last night from a dinner at the Upper East Side restaurant Daniel — where about 70 hedge-funders and other deep pocketed donors forked over $35,800 a head — it was big-time execs turning down the invitation who raised eyebrows. Both JPMorgan Chase chief Jamie Dimon and Citigroup boss Vikram Pandit had made it clear they would not attend the event, which was closed to the press. Also planning to skip the event were Blackstone Group President Tony James and its top real-estate exec, Jonathan Gray; Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman and its president, Greg Fleming; and Goldman Sachs President Gary Cohn. “I think there are a lot of Wall Street-types who are unhappy,” said a financial exec who has supported Obama in the past. “Do I think everyone’s going to abandon the president? I’d say no — I’m not going to abandon him — but I get the sense he’s going to get far less support than he did in the past.” The POTUS is no dummy though, he has enough self-awareness to recognize his own dwindling popularity: “I know that it’s not going to be exactly the same as when I was young and vibrant and new,” he said. “Let’s face it, it was cool to support me back then [in 2008] . . . Now I’m sort of old news.” Additionally, Obama’s support amongst the gay community seems to be contingent on him taking a stance on gay marriage. Even Obama’s first stop, at the Sheraton Hotel and Towers, where as many as 600 gays, bisexuals and transgendered people paid at least $1,250 apiece, showcased the gap between the president and his base. Obama stopped short of calling for same-sex nups — disappointing some of his supporters. At one point, some hecklers shouted “Marriage!” To which Obama responded, “I hear you, guys. Believe it or not, I anticipated that.” He took pains to say he was raised to abhor discrimination. “I was born that way,” he said, an apparent riff on Lady Gaga’s gay anthem “Born This Way.” Has your opinion about President Obama changed after these past few years? Do you still plan to support him in the 2012 election?? Caption this picture of our stressed out Commander-In-Chief. Source

We Are Young Money: The Highest Earning Celebrities Under 30 (Part 2)

Part one of Forbes Magazine’s “Best Paid Celebrities Under 30″ list was dominated by the athletes. But celebrities 1-10 are mostly musicians. A few of them are newcomers, who have somehow found a way to get around the slump the entertainment industry has been in for the last decade. African-Americans, however, are grossly misrepresented. Flip through the pages below and check out who rounds out the list of the past year’s highest earning celebrities under 30. (Editor’s Note: Part 1 of the list inadvertently skipped Lil Wayne at #20, and listed #10, Rafael Nadal , at #11.)

Darius ‘Deezle’ Harrison Talks Multi-Million Dollar Lawsuit Against Lil Wayne, Time As In-House Producer For Cash Money

I guess this is how they keep all of that “Cash Money”, by not paying people!! Grammy-award winning producer Darius ‘Deezle’ Harrison made headlines this year when he filed a reported $20 million lawsuit against Lil Wayne and his Cash Money/Young Money empire. The lawsuit alleged that Wayne and his imprints failed to pay him royalites for one of the rapper’s biggest hits to date “Lollipop”, estimated to have accumulated over $70 million in sales. Since then Deezle, the producer, instrumentalist, singer AND rapper, says he’s been misrepresented in the media as a money-hungry ‘monster’ instead of what he really was—the in-house producer for Cash Money Records after the departure of Mannie Fresh.

Snoop Dogg Gets New Gig To Pitch BLAST From Colt 45, Says Its Better Than 4 Loko!

This ni**a Snoop done put down the dank and picked up the drank. Look out, Four Loko. There’s a fruity-booze rival coming to the market — Blast from Colt 45 — and rapper Snoop Dogg is its pitch man. Blast, produced by Pabst Blue Ribbon’s Colt 45, is an alcoholic drink but does not contain caffeine, the ingredient that got Four Loko and a group of partying college students in trouble last year. Snoop Dogg, also known as Calvin Broadus, has been promoting the drink at various locations in Southern California with a bevy of attractive women wearing “Blast by Colt 45″ tank tops. Colt 45′s Facebook page also showcases a San Francisco party with hipsters drinking from glasses of bright blue Blast, served on the rocks. Pabst Blue Ribbon, the maker of Colt 45 and Blast, said the product will appear on cooler shelves on April 5. The Blast website says it will be offered in four neon flavors: grape, raspberry watermelon, strawberry lemonade and blueberry pomegranate. We f*cks with you Snoopy D-O-double-gizzle, but we’re not drinking anything that’s similar to 4 Loko. Thanks, but no thanks. Source
