Scandalicious Update: Papa Knowles & Beyonce & LeToya Luckett

Jun 11 | by Natasha

So after the rumors hit this week about PaPa Knowles stirring up trouble at the BET Awards, we decided to ask our own sources about the alleged scandal and wait for some confirmations. Apparently Mathew Knowles told BET that Beyonce would not perform if they insisted on letting former Destiny's Stepchild LeToya Luckett perform as well. We all see whose name is still on the BET Awards moniker, so it's safe to say LeToya lost this one. We asked our own sources at BET about whether any of this is true, and we got a slew of "No comment"'s. Don't know about y'all but I'm taking this as a yes. Damn shame. Here's a copy of the letter sent out: work for XXXXXXXXXXXX. I just want to share something with you because maybe you can help by spreading the word.

Mathew made a threat against BET to remove Beyonce from the BET Awards line-up if LeToya were to perform on that same stage that same night. It is sad to say but I think XXXX will win over LeToya [Luckett]'s management because Beyonce is a garantee to bring the ratings up for the show. In business we have to deal with shady politics but this is going too far. All I want is both girls to perform. Not just want or the other. I've talked about it to some LeToya fans about it and now they started a petition (http://twitition.com/nufi6) . Even if BET wouldn't bend over (which I doubt) he would get Beyonce out there at the last minute. He's just trying to intimidate BET. Anyway now you know, deal with this info the best way you can.Please don't reveal my indentity or where I work at.

It's a nasty game that Mathew Knowles like to play.

Harvey Nichols on left, B's hotel on the right

On another note, Beyonce reportedly had her entire entourage take her 45 feet (directly across from her London hotel) to the Harvey Nichols to shop. They packed up several cars with security and assistants just to go across the street to shop. This wouldn't be news if they were continuing their journey elsewhere. But they went right back tot he hotel afetr the shopping spree. I mean....the street was barricaded and it is hard to walk all the way down the block in 6 inch stilettos. Nevermind...

I don't think it is that serious with the Knowles. B is a superstar, why would she feel threatened by Latoya who is a B rated singer at best.

I agree completely, this is starting to make me look at Beyonce in a whole other light, I hope this isn't true and if it is, it is completely ridicolous, I knew it was coming though because LeToya had this new hott single out, she's cute, people are feeling her. The Papa Knowles has issues..

That's sad....can he leave the bitchassness back in 2008 where it belongs? I bet Matthew would have done the same thing if Kelly wanted to perform too. I still think Kelly is his daughter from another mother...*side eye* That whole entourage, and barricading the street is some Mariah Carey ish for real. *crickets*

THATS SUM REAL BULL-ISH...i mean i like beyonce, but i don't think its fair she is or being enabled by matthew knowles 2 take shine away from her former bandmates...like someone else said b4 y would she feel threatened by that...she is at the top of her game so i don't think she should really care...i think its real silly n immature...the only reason y she would be actin like that is if she's afraid letoya wil steal her shine!

If she believed her own

If she believed her own lyrics from "Survivor", it wouldn't matter to her if LaToya was perfoming at the BET awards the same night, on the same stage as her. Did Toya make $87 million last year? Uh, no! This just proves the type of person she is. Success is the best revenge, and she's had plenty of it, so she shouldn't care what her ex group members do.

What? Am I first? I didn't even realize it!! Anyway...got that out the way...I'm tired of Mr. Knowles. Isn't Bey already on top? What else does he need? I just don't get it. I remember a while back hearing that one of the main reasons LeToya Luckett was kicked out of the group was because she posed the biggest threat. Judging from the way he was trippin, I'm going to look at that as fact. I mean, the BET awards couldn't be any worse without Bey performing. Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE Bey fan. She is extremly talented. She sings, writes, produces, acts, etc. But for real? The earth shouldn't stand still at the word of her dad. Shame on BET!!

Okay this is irritating me,

Okay this is irritating me, being that I am Houstonian and avid supporter of both artists. People keep on persisting that LeToya is of such a low caliber, especially in comparison to Beyonce, but in actuality when you're publicly outsed from a group where the father of the group is the head henchman, it's then going to be quite a trial to claw to the top. LeToya is not being given the equal playing field when it comes to proving herself as an artist, as with Kelly and dare I say it, but Ciara as well. The market is a Beyonce driven market due to tactics in her camp surpressing other females in her musical style of genre. So before you began calling LeToya washed up and B-List please do look at the cards being dealt. Someone has a dirty hand called DADDY!

Regardless if that is her father & manager, Beyonce is grown - she is 30+ (lmao) and if she was to put her foot down, he would HAVE to do what she says. This is the reason why I started to dislike her personally because when DC first came out she & all of them came out with that "Oh we are closer than friends, we are like sisters, we are family" and you treat your so-called fam like that? Now you blocking your fam shine? She's not taking any food out your mouth - let Letoya live! Let your so-called "sister" eat too.
