Beyonce Sparks Controversy With Recent Performance

beyonce-sasha-fierce-2

Beyonce has triggered a media frenzy after her New Year’s Eve performance in St. Barts. The fierce one was reported to have performed for Moutassim Bilal “Hannibal” Gaddafi, a member of the notorious Gaddafi family, a group widely known for violence against women and dictatorship. However, Beyonce’s camp released the following statement denying the claims:

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}

It seems that this is just another case of the media trying to twist events in an effort encourage readership. Interestingly, when Mariah Carey performed at the same event at last year for $1 million, the media had no qualms about it. Either way, by performing for the Gaddafi clan, Beyonce is in no way showing support for their motives. Does a defense attorney support rape if he represents a rapist in court? Hardly.

Thoughts?

    Ummm I don’t know. If he’s trying to get a r***** off of the charge then he’s in practice supporting it, even if he’s not going out there and saying ‘r*** is good!’ and I wonder how he would feel if it was his daughter that got r****.

  2. Kyus January 8, 2010

    And anyways, if the KKK paid someone you knew to perform for them and they did so, would you be like ‘oh hell yeah!’ and do it?

  3. Kyus January 8, 2010

    But the point is moot anyways because she didn’t perform for him, she performed for his brother

  4. Imyourstar702 January 8, 2010

    Ahhh well whats done is done…*kanye shrug*

  5. WTF January 8, 2010

    we know u are up beyonces p**** but she did perform for that terrorist…it was even caught on tape…yep, put that heat on …

    and no it is not the same….she had the choice to turn that blood money down but being the money hungry b**** she is, she decided to shake her c****** for a fucken terrorist!!

  6. HJNJ January 8, 2010

    Yup, she shook her c****** for the terrorists and she is still better than any b**** out. Get mad all you want, because at the end of the day……Bey is gonna do Bey. Judgemental people kill me, look at your own backyard. Some of you heffas probably got dope dealing boyfriends selling to people right in your community, but its not the same right. Get over it.

    Let it be.

    What’s done is done.

    Consider it a lesson learned.

    Move on…rather, keep it moving Team-Bay.

    On the real though, they should’ve mentioned those other ‘high profile’ folks that got ‘paid’ too….unless Bey was the only one who got paid?

    “Does a defense attorney support r*** if he represents a r***** in court?” What sexist s*** is this? IF YOU TAKE THE R*****’S MONEY, then you ARE SUPPORTING the r*****. Whoa, I mean – I knew this site was sexist, but this is ridiculous.

    TRENT: You are destroying this site. You are a horrible writer, your points of view or horrendous, and you can’t write. WTF dude? WTF?

  9. bobs January 8, 2010

    Also, did Beyonce reallty need that Million? Doesn’t this b**** have enough money? She couldn’t take the night off? — Wow. I have to say, sick.

  10. Malyeh January 8, 2010

    would you guys stop calling Beyoncé a b**** ??! I mean respect…

  11. MusicOverGunz January 8, 2010

    it was a party, beyonce got offered to perform, and she did. It wasnt for a terrorist, it was for someone related to a terrorist. Beyonce just sang, she didnt do anything bad. Just like Russell said, they should go after all the US executives that were there, instead of going after the entertainment for the night.

  12. Dham January 8, 2010

    I wonder if Rihanna had done this would you have the same reaction.

  13. mez January 8, 2010

    what a stupid thing to say… u clearly do not understand how lawyers work. They work from the assumption that thier client is innocent and if they learn otherwise they usually look to make a deal based on pleading guilty…..

    So bad analogy.

    She went after the money and did not care …she only cares now because of the uproar.

    Shame on her

  14. B@tch Please January 8, 2010

    Everyone knows Beyonce is STUPID she didn’t know.

  15. Anne January 8, 2010

    What media frenzy? I know you cited one article but for the most part this story has been ignored. He is not his brother so like someone else said it’s a non issue.

  16. Rihanna Flop January 8, 2010

    Beyonce=baddest b**** in the game
    a whole lotta drama over a whole lotta nothing smh. This sh#t has nothing to do with her

  17. bobs January 8, 2010

    Beyonce needs to grow some damn morals if you ask me. She certainly didn’t need a million blood stained dollars did she? Is it worth it for a pair of gold leggings? Gross, just gross.

  18. Joe January 9, 2010

    So just because this family supports terrorism and beyonce performs for them that makes her support terrorism as well? thats BS her JOB is to perform and to get PAID for it which she did!…im glad she didnt apologize for performing there. she is getting her money and i aint mad at her…IDC if she performed in front of Osama Bin Laden as long as she brings his head back on a sword….. I bet if Madonna or Janet or Britney would have did it nobody would even consider it “news” worthy…

    If it looks like a duck, walk like a duck, and quack like a duck then its a fu*kin duck. I’m so tired of you lame Beyonce stans with yall heads up her a** justifing everything she does ( I bet some of yall will eat her while her period on lol sick retards). Honestly music artist have changed so much in the last decade and many of you will say because music is changing and that is B.S. I mean really looking at Beyonce over the last 10 years she went from this wholesome girl that would think and give God all the praise to some dark money hungry BIT*H. Why is it that Beyonce doesn’t mention God anymore when she excepts her awards has she forgotten who he is??? No she hasn’t forgotten she just sold her soul just like the rest of her devil worshipping counter parts (say what you want to and deny this as much as you pleas but ignorance is never bliss and what you dont know can sometimes kill you). IDC what you stans say she is not the example any child should follow. I was looking at a show on tv one day and saw a little infant baby popping her c****** to Beyonce music and imitating everything Beyonce does not only are her nasty ass parents to blame for recording it but Beyonce is as well for setting that kind of image for young girls to follow. However, some of you have a valid point Beyonce was not the only one there, IMO each celebrity that was there should be blackballed by America for socializing with the enemy but Americans are so FU*KIN naive they cant see when their own kind is plotting against them. The illuminati is REAL people and the only reason yall dont believe it is because your refusing to open your eyes and see. Just remember ignorance is the foundation on which stupidity is built!!!!

  20. Kp January 9, 2010

    That is such crap .. every single person is appointed a defense attorney by the court … its a god given right …

    However taking the money of a r***** and murderer is completely different .. Trent you’re Rihanna and Beyonce Bias is really ruining this blog .. .

    I’m sorry Sam .. but you made a bad decision …

  21. beyoncestan January 9, 2010

  25. dillpickle January 9, 2010

    So, Trent, you’re saying just because Mariah Carey performed, it was o.k. for her to perform to( regardless of the situation). So, Trent, if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump off to? Come on, I want to know.

    Beyonce needs to take responsibility for her own actions. GOD gave us a brain to make informed decisions, don’t cop out and say I performed for a terrorist because other people done it.

  26. sosicc_witswagga January 9, 2010

  28. Jasmine Tate January 12, 2010

    This is for all you Beyonce Fan.s… If you really care about her and support her, then you would encourage her to be more conscious of her global engagements and affiliations. Please allow her and encourage her to grow. It would be so great if she ‘d just say ‘I was wrong, but have learned” the world would be such a better place if we all accepted our human frailty….. Just saying… And for the writer of this blog… Shame on you for being so biased….
