TMZ.com referred to Beyonce as a “greedy bish” because tickets for her Las Vegas shows are going for $450 to $850!!

Over the weekend, I had dinner with someone very close to Beyonce, who was in town to celebrate Mother’s Day with her family.

Naturally I can’t tell you who she is or what she told me — which was nothing. It’s not that I didn’t try very hard to extract information from her — but when it came to matters of Beyonce, her lips were as tight as a drum. She is a consummate professional who is fiercely loyal to Beyonce, and that’s the way it should be.

From TMZ.com:

So much for doing it for the fans. Tickets for Beyonce’s four night “intimate” appearance at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas are going fast — but only to rich people. Fans have to buy their tickets along with a two night stay in the hotel — packages range from $450 and $850 per person — and that’s just for starters.

If that’s too rich for your blood and you want to skip the hotel, a limited number of tickets are selling for $250, $500, $750, and $1000 (again, per person).

Our source at the Wynn tells us that ticket-only seating cannot exceed 1% of total ticket sales. That means in the 1500-seat Encore theater, only 10-15 tickets will be available without hotel fees.

FYI … the world record for the number of people stuffed into a phone booth is 22.
