Constantly being called out in the investigation of the alleged sexual abuse of “rap tycoon” Diddy, the famous and powerful couple Beyoncé – Jay-Z has responded.

Recently, Beyoncé and Jay-Z were directly mentioned by singer-songwriter Jaguar Wright on journalist Piers Morgan’s Uncensored program. Jaguar Wright called Diddy and Jay-Z “monsters”, accusing the famous couple of harming hundreds of victims.

The black singer said: “In the past 4 years, I have said that the case is not only about Diddy. Diddy and Zay-Z are monsters.” Jaguar Wright also mentioned the mysterious death of female singer Aaliyah at the age of 22. She died suddenly in 2001 after a plane crash.

After Jaguar Wright’s statement, Beyoncé and Jay-Z responded. They decided to announce that they could sue those who spread unverified news. Alex Spiro, the lawyer for Beyoncé and Jay-Z, also warned journalist Piers Morgan, asking for the interview to be taken down.

In a letter to Piers Morgan, representatives for Beyoncé and Jay-Z wrote: “Delete that false accusation, which is clearly false. I think you will make a wise and appropriate choice.”

On behalf of the client, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s lawyers also told TMZ: “There are rumors, and this is a step forward. This is a formal and clear accusation.”

Jay-Z’s lawyer Jordan Siev told reporters: “It is very irresponsible to broadcast a show full of Piers Morgan lies.”

Soon after, Piers Morgan had to remove the interview and apologize to the famous star. He said: “Jaguar Wright unexpectedly made some serious allegations about Beyoncé and Jay-Z in the interview. At that time, Beyoncé and Jay-Z were not present to respond or protect themselves.

But now they have spoken. Their lawyer contacted us to say that those claims are completely false and have no factual basis. Therefore, we comply with the legal requirement and cut it from the original interview.

Editing interviews is not what we usually do when producing Uncensored. But for the act of deliberately creating false information and causing confusion and danger to others, we will place legal limits on censorship. Finally, we would like to apologize to Beyoncé and Jay-Z.”

According to international media, Beyoncé and Jay-Z are being severely affected by Diddy’s (Sean Combs) sex scandal. Rap star Diddy was arrested on September 16 and is awaiting the next trial date.

Diddy is entangled in a series of allegations such as coercion, abuse, use of extortion and violence to control victims… It is known that Diddy offered to pay an amount of 50 million USD (1,200 billion VND) to be released on bail but was refused.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are influential stars in the international music industry and have a close relationship with Diddy. They also regularly appear at parties organized by Diddy. These parties are said to be where Diddy’s crimes were committed.

After Diddy’s arrest, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s personal pages reportedly dropped by nearly tens of millions of subscribers. They also faced a wave of criticism from a global fan base.

According to People, Diddy is considered one of the pedestals to help Beyoncé’s career succeed as it is now. The black beauty was a member of the girl group Destiny’s Child before becoming the world’s leading female singer.

Time magazine listed her on the list of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2013 and 2014. In 2016, Beyoncé appeared at number 6 on Forbes’ list of People of the Year.

Forbes estimates that Beyoncé owns a fortune of about $760 million, as of last May. Her global tour, Renaissance World Tour grossed $579 million in ticket sales, making her the highest-grossing black star in world music history.

Jay-Z (Beyoncé’s husband) is known as an artist and entrepreneur. He was honored by Billboard and Vibe as one of the greatest rappers of all time in 2023.

Jay-Z is the owner of the entertainment company Roc Nation. The black male singer has been one of the world’s largest commercial artists for nearly 20 years, owning 24 Grammy Awards.
