Foxy Brown Denies Rumors About Jay-Z Giving Her An STD, Molestation & Being A 'Tranny Chaser'

Foxy Brown Denies Rumors About Jay-Z Giving Her An STD, Molestation & Being A ‘Tranny Chaser’

    I'm sure you all heard about the foolish rumors that hit the net a couple of weeks ago, stating foxy brown spilled the tea on Jay and a source ran with the story to the blogs!! See I didn't post that mess, bcos I can't do ratchet gossip ( no shade to anyone that does) without zero proof. So now FB speaks on the rumors. See below.
    Foxy Brown is FURIOUS over reports she trashed Jay-Z ... telling TMZ she NEVER referred to Hova as a gonorrhea-infected "tranny chaser" ... and now she's threatening to sue.
    Brown is referencing reports which say Foxy recently went to a baby shower and started dishing about Jay-Z's sex life to one of the guests -- saying he secretly engages in gay sex ... and that she lost her virginity to him when she was 15 and he was 27.
    There's more ... including allegations of a robbery, sex tape and STDs.
    But Foxy says the report is complete BS, telling TMZ ... "The atrociousness of this story sickened me to my stomach. Any and everyone involved will be contacted by my attorney."
    Foxy says, "In all my years in the music industry, these are the most disgusting and disrespectful allegations I've ever experienced. This fictitious story ... with NO audio, visual or written interview, clearly was concocted with malicious intent."
    "Jay has only been wonderful to me and my family, a great friend throughout all the years I've known him and we had nothing but great success as a team."
    She continues, "Beyonce, his wife, has always been gracious and sweet to me ... I will NOT let any undercover hater create discord and disrespect my name and reputation."
    "This disrespect will NOT be tolerated."
    Oh. and I know people are going to think Jay-z sent them dogs after her and made her release this statement...smh. I believe she released this statement bcos it was NEVER said. These "Sources" will lie and run with anything just for a few coins. TUH!!

Jay-Z Explains Reason for Selling Brooklyn Nets Stake

Jay-Z Explains Reason for Selling Brooklyn Nets Stake

    Now that Jay-Z has entered the sports agency game, he can't also be an NBA owner if he wants to represent professional basketball players. In a letter on his website Life and Times, the rapper clarified why he's selling his stake in the Brooklyn Nets. His newly launched sports agency, Roc Nation Sports, signed New York Yankees all-star Robinson Cano as its first client earlier this month. Representing an MLB player isn't against NBA rules, but Jay-Z would be unable to represent an NBA player while being an owner in the league. By selling off his shares, he can court basketball players as clients.
    "Our newest endeavor is committed to building the brands of professional athletes as we have done for some of today's top music artists," Jay-Z wrote. "For Roc Nation Sports to function at its full potential, NBA rules stipulate that I relinquish my ownership in the Brooklyn Nets."
    Jay-Z was the most visible figure in the investment group that brought the Nets from New Jersey to his native Brooklyn, and was active in the marketing and launch of the team this past season. But according to Forbes, his stake in the $530 million team shrank from 1.5 percent to less than one percent, with an estimated value of about $350,000.
    Still, Jay-Z said it wasn't about business, but rather about his love for his borough. "It was never about an investment; it was about the Nets and Brooklyn. My job as an owner is over but as a fan it has just begun," Jay-Z wrote, thanking the team's owner, Mikhail Prokhorov, and others. "A thank you and deepest appreciation goes to the fans. You are the lifeblood of any team."
    Jay-Z's stake already has a taker: Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, who lives in Brooklyn, is interested in becoming a Nets minority owner. "I have tried to make as many public and private overtures as I can to let Hova know that I would absolutely be honored to buy those shares," Ohanian said on Bloomberg's "Money Moves," as noted by SB Nation's Nets Daily. He even joked on Reddit that he'd make all the players participate in the site's popular Ask Me Anything (AMA) series.
