Beyonce's Turn...
New York (AP) -- Megastars Beyonce Knowles and boyfriend Rapper/mogul Jay Z (Shawn Carter) are suing a New Jersey man for allegedly trying to distribute and profit from a sex tape they say was recorded Illegally.
A lawsuit filed Monday seeks monetary damages as well as a temporary restraining order and injunction prohibiting the sale or other use of the videotape.
Carter, 36, and Knowles 24, accuse Kurtis Walker of trying to distribute the tape through an intermediary. The two said they recognize the hotel where the tape was made, and said a hidden camera caught the two having relations. "We are saddened at the lengths people will go to profit off someone else, our immediate concern is to stop the distrubion and any profiting that someone might do from this crime." Jana Fleishman, read that statement issued by Mr. Carter Tuesday Evening.
The tape, which was reportedly made 1 year ago shows the couples 2 minute sex romp. Walker could not be reached for comment and a call to a phone number listed for him showed the number had been disconnected. A message left for Walker's attorney was not immediately returned Monday.
The lawsuit also accused the 39 year-old man of working with the owner of an Internet pornography business and contacting the news media about the tape. The lawsuit said the release of the videotape would irreparably harm Carter's reputation and career, "even though he looks like a camel, he is not hung like
one, his member is really small and the release of this tape would prove harmful" said Fleishman.
