Bey Getting Sued for Missed Club Appearance

Bey has mad some promoters very angry. She was supposed to appear at NYC club, Mansion for $200,000 and suddenly pulled out of the gig. Joey Morrissey, the clubs owner spent $100K to prepare for the show only for her to pull out right before.
“They said they were too busy with the launching of the tour and that they wouldn’t have time to do the kickoff party,” Morrissey tells Page Six. To make up for the cancellation, Morrissey says Beyoncé offered to stop by the club “to hang out for an hour” on Sunday. He adds, “I mean, we sold tables for thousands of dollars for the show, and spent $100,000 renting a soundboard and other equipment, as per their stipulations. What good does her showing up for an hour do me? They’ve been totally unwilling to agree to another show.”
He’s going to sue her for a “loss of reputation” in addition to the money he lost promoting the appearance. “We had an overwhelming response from our clubgoers, who were lining up to buy tickets and tables. This will come as a great disappointment to all of them,” he claims, adding, “If Beyoncé cancels and doesn’t give us a new date, this hurts our credibility in night life.” Source
I hope he gets every red cent he’s asking for. That’s completely unprofessional. I can understand her being worked to the bone but it’s her management’s responsibility to better…well, manage, her career. That means you Papa Knowles.
