During an episode of The Jason Lee Podcast, Lee accused Beyonce of shading Black media outlets during her sold-out Renaissance World Tour, and social media is all ears.
Although her tour made millions in revenue and her Bey Good Foundation issued checks to both Black and LGBTQ+ businesses around the world, Lee feels that isn’t enough.
“I think optically when you don’t include other Black leaders in the culture in the fold, take me out of it, ‘The Breakfast Club.’ I mean, you should have honored and brought more Black people in because Beyoncé has such a huge voice,” Lee said. “I’ve done a lot, and I’m not even going to say it here because if I did, this internet, Beyoncé’s good internet, would go crazy. Did I tell y’all what I’ve done?”
He continued to spill the tea to his co-hosts while covering his mouth with paper and having his producer bleep his words out, all to get their reactions.

The controversial creative claims he spent over $40,000 to see Beyonce’s show three times and says he feels unappreciated. Leaving viewers curious, Lee went on to say, “There should be a little love there.”
Then, after alluding he has “receipts,” the former Love and Hip-Hop: Hollywood star pointed the finger at the “Cozy” singer’s longtime publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, saying while Bey doesn’t know what he has allegedly done, Noel-Schure does. That’s where things got sticky – as he hopes to have Destiny Child member and Beyonce’s best friend, Kelly Rowland, on his show – Lee said if that doesn’t happen, the “receipts” will be exposed. “I’m just being critical. That’s just what I do. You know that, Yvette. I’m trying to book Kelly Rowland right now,” Lee said.
“Now, if I don’t get Kelly Rowland because I say this about — then, then it’s gon’ be a problem. Then I’m putting out receipts. The receipts I just told y’all about, then I’ll put those out.”
As the video started circulating around social media, users called “cap” on Lee’s accusations, calling him shady and pointing out that he may not have said anything under the paper.
“He didn’t say shit under that piece of paper. I’m crying,” @itunesdrop said.
Another reminisced on Lee being ignored by Bey at a past Roc Nation brunch. “Isn’t this the same guy she was avoiding at the Roc Nation brunch,” @HenriettaSnacks wrote. “That is the closest he is ever going to get to her, and now he just lost his invitation to the next one.”
Hopefully, Lee will change his ways as the reality show star recently filed paperwork to enter the District 6 council race in his hometown of Stockton, California. He says that after all these years in the entertainment industry, now is the right time to run.
