*Beyonce’s father, Matthew Knowles, is sharing some bombshell details in a tell-all book about the success of Destiny’s Child, the group he once managed.
Knowles sat down with Vlad TV and revealed that both Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland were sexually harassed by two members of group the Jagged Edge while they were on a joint tour.
JE consisted of Brian Casey, Brandon Casey, Richard Wingo and Kyle Norman.
“Now remember, the girls are minors. They’re 16-years-old the guys are 21, 22-years-old,” Knowles explained. “[…] I got a call from Kelly and Beyonce – and I talk about this in the book in detail – saying that they were constantly being harassed by two other members of Jagged Edge. I couldn’t have that.”
Mathew said he kicked the men off the bus at the next tour stop.

“I literally had to put the guys off the bus in Baton Rouge, Louisiana,” Knowles added. “That began all of this drama.”
The drama he’s referring to relates to Destiny’s Child members, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett, deciding to seek different manager without telling Knowles.
It’s unclear which members of Jagged Edge sexually harassed Kelly and Bey, but during Jagged Edge’s “Unsung” episode, it was revealed that twins Brandon and Brian each had a secret relationship with LeToya and LaTavia.
The coupling, along with an incident involving LeToya’s mother, is what got them kicked out of the group.

Meanwhile, some Beyonce fans are not thrilled about Matthew’s revelation. Here’s a few reactions from LipStick Alley:
Even if true, how is this his story to tell? Does he not realize he could victimize her again by pulling this story out of her psyche without her consent?

This is not good. I’m assuming that Matthew has little to no contact with Beyoncé or Solange. Why would he talk about this in public? – TheProfaneAngel
