EUR UPDATE:

*Forget what you read before. We have new info …

A spokesman for Quincy Jones says that he will be spending New Year’s Eve with his family in Los Angeles and will not be attending a party hosted by President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

The reason the story was even out there is because earlier on Friday, in a transition team call with reporters, Trump spokesman Sean Spicer said that Jones and actor Sylvester Stallone were among those on the guest list for the party, with about 800 guests attending.

Not so according to Jones’s spokesman, Arnold Robinson who said that Jones wouldn’t be attending and didn’t know where Trump’s team got the information.

Uh oh.

Somebody done effed up and it’s not a good look. We’ll just leave it at that.

Here’s What We Reported Earlier …

*Quincy Jones is set to ring in the New Year with President-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

The legendary music producer is confirmed to attend the gathering despite being a longtime supporter of the Democratic Party, not to mention a donor to Hillary Clinton’s recent presidential campaign.

According to Page Six, Q has promoted the idea of creating a White House position devoted to the arts, perhaps a “secretary of the arts.”

Sylvester Stallone is also confirmed for the Saturday night soiree, according to Hope Hicks, a spokeswoman for Trump’s transition team. About 800 guests are expected to attend.

According to The Hill, Trump’s affair will include a cocktail hour, followed by dinner and dancing in the grand ballroom.
