There are numerous rumors swirling about the Knowles family and their shady ways…including the rumor that Matthew Knowles is Kelly Rowland’s secret father. While at The Beat in Philly, Kelly Rowland clears the air and addresses those rumors. When asked “Is Matthew Knowles really your father?” Kelly said the following….


So there you have it folks…”NO! Matthew Knowles is NOT her father!” That should put all those rumors to rest.

Realtalk, I can’t wait for the day Kelly decides to pen a tell all book about her life behind the Beyonce’s shadow and being a part of the Knowles camp. That ought to be a juicy read.

MICHELLE WILLIAMS SENDS PAPA KNOWLES “TO THE LEFT, TO THE LEFT…” http://str8nyc.com/2010/01/14/michelle-williams-drops-papa-knowles/ http://str8nyc.com/2010/01/14/michelle-williams-drops-papa-knowles/#comments Thu, 14 Jan 2010 18:13:52 +0000 LexAve http://str8nyc.com/?p=31746 MICHELLE WILLIAMS SENDS PAPA KNOWLES “TO THE LEFT, TO THE LEFT…”

It’s official Matthew Knowles is dunzo! Another former Destiny’s Child member, Michelle Williams, & Matthew Knowles management bite the dust. According to TheYBF, here’s the statement Michelle Williams issued…

“After much prayer and consideration I have decided to part ways from my management team, Mathew Knowles and Music World Entertainment. From my time in Destiny’s Child to my solo career, I am grateful for everything Mathew and his team has done for me. We’ve shared great success together. However, as I move in a new direction in my career, I felt it was time. I wish Mathew Knowles and the Music World Entertainment family all the best.”


“To The Left, To The Left…”

First Kelly Rowland drops PaPa Knowles in 2009 and now Michelle Williams kicks him to the curb in 2010…I highly doubt Beyonce will make the same move. Either way, this is definitely a good move for M.Williams, especially now that she’s geared up to star in Chicago Broadway Musical in February. The US may be stannin’ Beyonce, but the UK shows both Kelly & Michelle extra love- they’re definitely stacking on their Euros.

Good luck in 2010, Michelle! We’re rooting for you!

The US may be fixated on Beyonce Knowles, but in the UK Kelly Rowland gets major love…more like 50k screaming fans type of love at the Loop Live mega-show. Ms.Kelly wowed the crowd in her sexy black bodysuit doing her biggest hits such as ‘Work’, ‘Dilemma’ and ‘When Love Takes Over’. She even took back to her DC3 days and performed “Say My Name”. Hope Matthew Knowles is watching…

POP THE HOOD FOR MORE KELLY…

KELLY: “I AIN’T READY TO MEET MY REAL DADDY…” http://str8nyc.com/2009/07/05/kelly-i-aint-ready-to-meet-my-real-daddy/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/07/05/kelly-i-aint-ready-to-meet-my-real-daddy/#comments Sun, 05 Jul 2009 17:16:41 +0000 J'More http://str8nyc.com/?p=20307 KELLY: “I AIN’T READY TO MEET MY REAL DADDY…”

kellyrowland

It’s been said that Kelly Rowland’s biological father is none other than Beyonce’s father Matthew Knowles, however Kelly claims that her mother jumped ship and left her abusive father when she was just a kid. For some odd reason, rumor spread like wildfire that Kelly has set out on a mission to find her real father. Well, in an attempt to put the rumor to rest, Kelly claims that she hasn’t looked for her daddy nor is she even ready to look for his ass. She tells Britain’s Heat Radio,

“I don’t know who started that story! I haven’t actually. I feel like I’m not really ready for that yet, I’ve enough going on in my life to really open that up. Maybe later on in about 16 or 17 months. I told myself I’d work for 16 long months and then I’d take a vacation or a break, but now is not that time for me.”

Kelly isn’t sure whether her father is still alive or if he even knows who she is.

She adds, “I don’t know where he is but I hope he’s not dead. That would break my heart. I remember my dad being drunk and aggressive towards my mom but not me. It took courage for her to get away. I don’t know if he knows who I am or what I’ve done. He must be hiding under a rock if he doesn’t.”

I don’t care what Kelly says, PaPa Knowles is her daddy!

LETOYA LUCKETT TALKS MATTHEW KNOWLES & BET DRAMA http://str8nyc.com/2009/06/18/letoya-luckett-talks-matthew-knowles-bet-drama/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/06/18/letoya-luckett-talks-matthew-knowles-bet-drama/#comments Thu, 18 Jun 2009 21:27:15 +0000 LexAve http://str8nyc.com/?p=19055 LETOYA LUCKETT TALKS MATTHEW KNOWLES & BET DRAMA

letoya

In case you haven’t heard the beef, there’s rumors claiming Matthew Knowles is trying to get Letoya pulled out the BET Awards because Beyonce is set to perform. Shots fired!!!

So during an interview with WPGC’s DJ Flexx, she was asked to address the rumors…


Dj Flexx:”Let’s just say that it’s true, how does it make you feel that Matthew would go so hard at you to get you off the show?”

LeToya:”It saddens me a little. Because our situation happened close to 10 years ago, and I think as we all know Bey is a very very very talented artist, and I think that we both have our own lanes and fanbase, and I don’t see why I would have to be one of the ones picked out of the entire crew of females that will be hitting the stage that night. I don’t know… I’m gonna try and word this right… I just don’t understand why I’m picked outta that group because there are so many other female artists performin’ that night and I think we all deserve to have a chance at that stage. Everybody works hard and we all have something different to offer, from Keyshia to Keri to Bey, everybody is different in their own ways so it saddens me if that’s true, and I hope that’s not the case but I’ll be there regardless”.


POP THE HOOD FOR AUDIO & VIDEO!


Props to Letoya for handling the situation and drama with such class!

If this is true, Matthew Knowles really needs to pump his brakes and LET IT GO!

Lady Love drops August 25th!

KELLY ROWLAND’S RECORD LABEL GIVES HER THE BOOT?! http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/30/kelly-rowlands-record-label-gives-her-the-boot/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/30/kelly-rowlands-record-label-gives-her-the-boot/#comments Mon, 30 Mar 2009 01:12:24 +0000 J'More http://str8nyc.com/?p=14047 KELLY ROWLAND’S RECORD LABEL GIVES HER THE BOOT?!


Just two months after firing Matthew Knowles as her manager, Kelly Rowland is now being dumped by her record label, Columbia Records. Despite the fact that her first two solo album sold more than four million copies, snitches say that label bosses over at Columbia gave Kelly the boot because they fear that she’s “no longer commercially viable”.

Who’s really checking for Kelly Rowland?!

LexAve: So will Kelly continue to work on her 3rd solo album?

BEYONCE CREDITS PARENTS FOR HER SUCCESS http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/18/beyonce-credits-parents-for-her-success/ http://str8nyc.com/2009/03/18/beyonce-credits-parents-for-her-success/#comments Wed, 18 Mar 2009 17:52:41 +0000 J'More http://str8nyc.com/?p=13629 BEYONCE CREDITS PARENTS FOR HER SUCCESS

In the April issue of Vogue set to hit newsstands on March 24, Beyonce Knowles not only opens up about her relationship with Jay-Z, but also about her strong relationship with her parents. Beyonce is convinced that she wouldn’t be the megastar she is today if it weren’t for her parents, Matthew and Tina Knowles. Although some feel that MaMa and PaPa Knowles are too involved in their daughter’s life, Beyonce claims that the arrangement they have works and that their lives do not really revolve around hers. She says,

“We all did this together.” While adding, “They do their own things. Their whole lives are not … me.”


As for her relationship with MaMa Knowles, Beyone gushes

“(She) is truly my best friend. We work together on our clothing line. She handles my movies: She reads all the scripts and tells me the good ones, and then I read them”.


Read what Bey had to say about PaPa Knowles after the cut…
More images of Bey shopping HERE!

While on the other hand PaPa Knowles who she refers to as a “tough bargainer”, “does all of the business deals and negotiations”. She explains,

“The best thing is having someone I trust. I know he is up until 4:00 a.m. fighting and working and doing things that no one else would do. But he really knows what he’s doing, and he’s a workaholic. And for a while I was starting to become that way. I realized that just because my parents are workaholics — because my mother is, too — it doesn’t mean I have to be one. So I have slowed down a lot — even though my slowing down is two movies and a tour in one year!”
