That controversy involving Beyonce performing a private New Year’s Eve bash for terrorists is not going away anytime soon.
Last night, her camp released yet another carefully worded statement hoping to contain the wildfire of criticism that threatens to end Beyonce’s career.
First Beyonce’s booking agent, ICM, and her father/manager Matthew Knowles said Beyonce didn’t perform a New Year’s Eve Bash in St. Barts. Then they admitted she did perform, but not for anyone named Khadafy. Now they’ve decided to “confirm the private performance” but they’ve gone back to lying again about who she was paid a reported $2 million to perform for that night. Can they ever get their lies straight?
A STATEMENT FROM BEYONCÉ’S BOOKING AGENT ICM AND HER MANAGEMENT COMPANY MUSIC WORLD ENTERTAINMENT
The party in St. Bart’s on New Year’s Eve, with Beyoncé in performance, was hosted by Muatsim-Billah Gaddafi, not his brother Moutassim Bilal “Hannibal” Gaddafi, as reported in the press.
Her agents and management firm made the decision to confirm the private performance. The annual party had a long history of booking internationally known artists both American and foreign for events around the world, including Cannes.
Past performers in St. Bart’s have included Timbaland, Enrique Iglesias and Mariah Carey. Guests at this year’s party included singer Usher, former BET CEO Bob Johnson, actress Lindsay Lohan and music industry vets, Russell Simmons, Kevin Liles and L.A. Reid. Source
