Beyonce: I Gave Gaddafi's Concert Money To Haiti Relief....

NEW YORK -- Beyonce says she donated to Haiti relief the money she was given to perform at a 2009 New Year's Eve party in St. Barts thrown by the son of embattled Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
The pop star performed, along with Usher, at the $1 million personal concert for Mutassim Gaddafi, according to diplomatic cables which describe the Gaddafi family's extravagant spending.
The revelation sparked calls for Beyonce and other entertainers who've been paid by the Gaddafi clan to return the money or donate it to charity.
Asked to comment, Beyonce's spokesperson, Yvette Noel-Schure emailed The Huffington Post:

All monies paid to Beyoncé for her performance at a private party at Nikki Beach St. Barts on New Year's Eve 2009, including the commissions paid to her booking agency, were donated to the earthquake relief efforts in Haiti, over a year ago. Once it became known that the third party promoter was linked to the Qaddafi family, the decision was made to put that payment to a good cause.

Noel-Schure said that Beyonce contributed the funds to the Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund, which was established in the wake of that country's devastating earthquake last year. A spokesperson for the fund confirmed that Beyonce did give $1 million to the Clinton Foundation, which was accepting donations for Haiti relief, in the first few weeks after the January 2010 disaster.
On Tuesday, Canadian pop singer Nelly Furtado tweeted that she plans to donate the $1 million she received to perform a 45-minute show for the Gaddafi family and guests in 2007.

Nelly Furtado to donate $1m Gaddafi concert fee to charity...are others turning a blind eye??

Singer plans to give away money she received for performing for the family of Libyan leader in 2007....will Beyonce, Usher and Mariah Carey do the same? They have recently (in the last year at most)  taken blood money from this sick deranged imbecile Gaddafi......

Four years after she performed at a private concert for Libya's Gaddafi family, singer Nelly Furtado has announced that she will donate the $1m (£615,500) fee to charity. Furtado's decision has intensified the spotlight on other pop stars, including Mariah Carey, Beyoncé and Usher, who performed at parties for the sons of Muammar Gaddafi.

"In 2007, I received 1million$ from the Qaddafi clan to perform a 45 min. Show for guests at a hotel in Italy," Furtado wrote on Twitter on Sunday night. "I am going to donate the $." Furtado's announcement is no small thing – money aside, it is tied up in both international and show business politics. For unknown reasons, Furtado's tweet was deleted on Monday morning but reinstated in the afternoon. According to Furtado's label, the Maneater singer will soon reveal which charity will be the beneficiary of the Gaddafi concert fee.

However, other stars who performed for the Gaddafi family in recent years have refused to comment on whether they will donate their fees or not. "People put a big paycheck on the table, and people don't consider where the money is coming from, or what they're at least passively endorsing," suggested David T Viecelli, a booking agent for Arcade Fire and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. "If it's true that Muammar Gaddafi's son says, 'I've got $50m, come and play for my buddies', I really think you have to say no to that. Given what we know about Gaddafi and what his rule has been about, you have to willfully turn a blind eye in order to accept that money."

UH OH.....THIS IS NOT GOOD....50 Cent, Beyonce, Usher, Jay Z, Timbaland, e.t.c. got some of that Libyan money from the Gaddafis

OOOOOH NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....JUST WHEN I THOUGH BEY WAS DOWN FOR PEACE AND LOVE.....

Gaddafi’s sons apparently loved to spend lavishly. At the 05 Venice film festival party, they threw the biggest party in the city and even got 50 Cent to perform…………….50, I dunno if you want that blood money on ur hands bruh! If I were you, I’d give back the $$ they gave n contribute to an aid fund to assist the Libyan civillians……..I’mjustsayin…..Same to Beyonce and Usher……anyways, the intro and outro of the video clip are kinda scary……..that music, and the Arab writing……for some reason it just gave me serious goosebumps.....

Wikileak also reports that hiphop + RnB artists Beyonce and Usher also got some of that libyan money for a 2010 New yr’s bash in St Barts. Word on the street is that Beyonce was paid about 2 million US Dollars to perform. Not sure how much Usher was paid. Rusell Simmons was also at the party and per Necole Bitchie, posted this http://twitter.com/UncleRUSH/status/7255862175 . I Wasn’t aware how deep the Gaddafi sons were with the hiphop community. At the bottom of this page I’ve posted a link to an article where you can read more detail about the New Yrs Gaddafi bash…..splashing the billions plundered from Libyan civilians

WIKILEAK LIBYA CABLE ON TRIPOLI!



2. (S/NF) A local political observer XXXXXXXXXXXX told us that the Qadhafi family has been consumed in recent weeks by efforts to control the damage from Mutassim and Hannibal’s recent headline-grabbing behavior. National Security Advisor Mutassim al-Qadhafi kicked off 2010 in the same way he spent 2009 — with a New Year’s Eve trip to St. Bart’s — reportedly featuring copious amounts of alcohol and a million-dollar personal concert courtesy of Beyonce, Usher, and other musicians. Mutassim seemed to be surprised by the fact that his party was photographed and the focus of international media attention.










XXXXXXXXXXXX, his carousing and extravagance angered some locals, who viewed his activities as impious and embarrassing to the nation. Others took the events and rumors surrounding it as further argument that Mutassim — often considered to be a rival of brother Saif al-Islam to succeed his father — is not fit to be the next leader of the country. The Egyptian ambassador recently told the Ambassador that the Egyptians had been bracing for retribution after an Egyptian newspaper published the report of Mutassim’s carousing.
