Grammy winning gospel songstress Le’andria Johnson set the net ablaze hours ago when messages were lifted to her Twitter slamming Music World Gospel label head/famed manager Matthew Knowles (father of pop superstar Beyonce) for being a “crook”.

The original message (which has now been removed) was accompanied with a phone number soliciting media requests for interviews.  As word quickly spread across the Web and courted the attention of secular and gospel outlets alike, it appears the ‘Sunday Best’ champion’s team is trying to shut down the story.

The general public may have given the movie the positive reviews it longed for, but it seems TLC‘s ‘Crazy Sexy Cool‘ biopic has rubbed many of the ladies’ former ‘acquaintances’ the wrong way.

For, as former manager Pebbles continue to face the wrath of many a music lover for her portrayal in the piece, the sister of Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes has now come forward to express the ‘hurt’ her family felt, due to the involvement – or lack of – they were allowed to have in crafting the finished and allegedly accurate product.

Any act as big as Lady GaGa will always generate polarizing views. However, over the course of her meteoric career, the singer has garnered especially intense scrutiny – thanks to her pronounced flare for Pop experiments (see: ‘Born This Way’).

During an interview with Scott Mills on BBC Radio 1 moments ago, the ‘ARTPOP’ maven addressed the seeming desire of the masses to place her in a musical box. One she refuses to enter.
