Beyonce's Beef is a Family Affair

Beyonce's not creating the supposed catfight with "Dreamgirls" costar Jennifer Hudson – her daddy Matthew is.

As E!'s Marc Malkin reports, during the filming of "Dreamgirls," the ever-overbearing Matthew tried to sign Hudson as a management client, only to rebuffed by the former "American Idol" contestant. Despite her rejection, Matthew went around telling people he'd been representing the breakout star.

What's more, after an early screening, both Matthew and B's mom (Tina) flipped over Hudson's screen time, arguing with writer/director Bill Condon that the flick needed to be recut and include more B and less J -- Condon refused.

Of course it's not the first time Matthew has gone ballistic over Beyonce. Back in June, when TMZ posted video of PETA confronting Beyonce over her fondness for fur, Matthew tried just about everything in his quiver to get it taken down. It didn't work.

46. By the way Beyonce got asked to perform at the Academy Awards because Faith Hill couldn't make it to perform. Faith was doing something useful with her time not in the studio creating songs contradicting her life. How can you go from "Crazy In Love" to "Irreplaceable" to "Upgrade U" Someone has some soul searching to do and I think Jay-Z needs to leave before she writes a song talking about how to kill you in your sleep. And also Kelly Rowland, and Letoya Luckett helped write all of the songs that Beyonce "wrote". Im sorry to say and it has been said before that Matthew Knowles is the new Joe Jackson and Joe Simpson. Music is soooo horrible now when people like Beyonce are winning awards for songs that aren't even good. Ugh!

47. How will hating someone who has done and said nothing against you improve the happiness in your life?

48. Kay, not just black women, but women everywhere. Don't see color in this, the Simpson's pimp dad does the same thing.

How can we all find out for sure if Beyonce really is 32 years old ?????

If that is true Beyonce's career is finished !

I have heard it wouldn't be the first time a celebrity lied about their age ...

51. i personally think beyonce is talented but not to the extreme that she and her parents think . yes she has accomplished many things but she is not the beginning or end to talent . i am overjoyed that jennifer hudson turned down that grinch matthew because i too believe that he would have stifled her career . he is so afraid that someone will get recognition for their work and his daughter will lose out on an award . damn she has won so many things . let someone else get noticed for their hard work too . jennifer has an amazing voice and i think she is an up and coming star . if she'd had the same opportunities that beyonce had and the same amount of time she most likely would have had the same amount of accomplishments by now . and by the way ,tina knowles designs are disastrous .i can't see them ever making money on that shit . she's out of her league .she should stick to those hoochie outfits she forced destinys child to wear . actually their entire family sickens me . the parents need to step back and let beyonce be a grownup and run her own life . as long as they're running the show she'll probably always be jay z's girl and not his wife . and i don't blame him .

52. Beyonce, while you are starting beef with Jen, your man Jay is with a real broad named Rhianna. He can pull on her hair from the back and not worry about pulling it out. Beyonce, Rhianna is a natural beauty girl, so get your self To The Left before Rhianna takes your man for good. It is not always all about YOU! with your fake self. Get over yourself before everybody gets over you including your man Jay......then you'll be Replaced. Where would all of these girls be with out a weave and all of this fake beatuy stuff?? What does your real hair look like? Wear your real hair and a little less make up and lets see if you are this "Beauty" that these blind people think that you are. I have a picture of Beyonce without her weave and no make up. She looks a hot mess in this picture and Rhianna natural compared to B natural makes Beyonce look like a two. My toes look better than Beyonce in this picture.

53. People enough of the hating already!!!!!! Both of these women are very talented and there is enough room for both of them to do their thing. Jennifer & Beyounce, pease, please do not let the media create anything between you. If anything, show the world we need to stick together, live and sing in harmony.

54. I think Beyonce is feeling threatened, and that is why she is overreacting. You'll see though. She will be in the cameras apologizing for what we all 'think' is going down between her and Jennifer. She'll claim she has no reason to be jealous and that she and Jennifer got along wonderfully. I just hope Jennifer bust her out. Beyonce is talented. I'll give her that, but she has let her fame go to her head, and it's about time someone brought her down a notch or two.

55. What you see on tv, music videos...etc. is B's alter ego "Sasha." She's fierce, confident, a diva, but in reality she's boring, can't read, has no personality. She is really 32 years old.

56. WOW! What a bunch of crybaby B.S. You WISH you had a dad like Matthew Knowles.While you were runnin around High school ,trying to be "popular",Beyonce and her Mom and Dad were traveling around the entire world,entertaining thousands of PAYING,concert going fans.
Most of our parents didn't give a crap about our future other than counting down the day's when you would get the hell out of their house.Get real people,you're all just JEALOUS!!!

57. Jay Z you are so crazy! How you going to put your queen on blast like that? Tell me is it Rihanna you really want or what, brah? You got the money, the fame, the know-how. Drop B like a bad habit and move on to someone who can read, is spontaneous, and who can make you go longer than 2 minutes in the bedroom. Oh yeah I heard about you and B's scandalous video, Brah! I hope that's not the real you, Hova, becaue if it is you are Replaceable.

58. Beyonce had her turn at fame and fortune now its Jennifers time to shine. So share the spotlight Beyonce!

59. ok for starters. beyonce is a fine performer but she can't sing. not like Jennifer no way in hell. further more, i would like to know why is she being nominated for an academy award for ANY reason much less a golden globe. her acting is not anything to sware about and its ovious in this movie who the real star is. also, Rhianna this new girl JZ is hainging out with to me is no prettier than Beyonce. if anything beyonce is prettier. Rhianna has a face and head like a football helmet and she looks like she is even more of a spoiled diva bitch than many of these stars out here. and finally, if B does not marry JZ then i hope she will concider herself lucky because he is one ugly dude! he and foot ball face Rhianna deserve each other
