Jay-Z Is In Trouble!

Hova is in trouble!

Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Jay-Z's new 40/40 club in Las Vegas did not pass their inspection.

What does that mean?

The venue won't open as previously planned, throwing a major curveball to the rapper and entrepreneur.

"Unless Jay-Z and his team miraculously come up with certain licenses and certificates by Sunday, then they won't be able to go on with their New Year's Eve party plans," a source familiar with the situation tells us.

Not only that, Jigga and his team have to refund all tickets for the opening, which will add even more costs to their starting on the wrong foot Sin City venture.

We're not sure why, but blame Beyonce, we say!

      Nobody even made fun of Beyonce… but they should. And not because she is black, but because she is talentless (gasp and drool! what will people say now?!).

      I hate people. Especially people who pull the race card where they have no right to pull the race card.

      Whatever. In my job I've seen many clubs and venues open. There are ALWAYS problems with cabaret/liquor licences or insurance or some other class of beaurocratic nightmare at the last minute. if you throw enough money at it the problem always seems to go away just in time though.

      Darrius Miller, a well known local celebrity trainer to such stars as Ciara, Keisha Knight Pulliam, Takeyo Spikes and Terrell Owens, is hospitalized in a coma after being viciously beaten by a gang of thugs. The beating occurred in the early morning hours of Wednesday outside popular restaurant D’Jangos.

      Police say about 7 members of a group calling themselves 01 Entertainment attacked Miller, 41, as he walked Atlanta mayor Shirley Franklin’s daughters Kai and Kali Franklin, and 2 other women to their car. Witnesses say the men came out of Verve nightclub and began videotaping the women who protested the taping. The men responded by calling the woman derogatory names.

      Mr. Miller attempted to intervene when the men turned on him and beat him unconscious. According to witnesses, the women pulled the attackers off of Miller while other men stood watching but did not offer assistance. Mr. Miller went into cardiac arrest upon arrival at the hospital. Celebrities such as T-Boz and Keisha Knight Pulliam visited Mr. Miller who is on a respirator in ICU. Doctors think Mr. Miller may have sustained brain damage

      Honestly this is not a big deal. This kinda shit happens EVERYday. City people are a bunch of gigantic assholes who like to find anyway to red tag something. Especially a big rapper like Jay Z AND with the pending NYE celebration, you know they are lookin for the payoff. JAY….you need a connection in the city bro….don't your guys know some guys…I am sure someone you know in NY can make a call….a buncha minks fall off a truck and everyone is happy.

      One less night club in Las Vegas? That will be fine. A city that proudly calls itself Sin City might just have a little problem somewhere with its basic premise. The paradigm is very ennobling: first gamble, then go clubbing, then get drunk, then take drugs, then look for sex. The entrepreneurs of Las Vegas have bestowed their blessing on this kind of sequential indulgence, so it must be all right, even though it's more like self-assassination. The mental and physical health and welfare of the people? Oh we don't worry about it, just get that permit and sell them their preferred poison.

      also, jay was just fired from def jam. he "officially" said he's leaving to pursue his club and other interests, but rumors in the biz have said he'll be fired for about 2 weeks.
      sad….but business is business and obviously jay-z can't take care of business. he should go back to rapping, where he's actually got crazy skills.

      I don't blame Beyonce. Opening and operating a club is hard. None of the bars around here last longer than 5 years.
      What the world needs now is love. It's hard not to be sad at a time like this. One of my boyfriends was from Pakistan. My father's parents were from India. I don't know what happened to the article about the assassination. Should look up cnn or Fox, I guess.

      Money is no object to these people. I'm sure Jay-Z isn't sweating whether or not his club will make money from one night of people at his club, even if it is New Year's.

      Re: peter – Yeah, I know a good one. Bigotedasshole.com. Seriously, it's the year 2007, and people STILL have a problem with Perez' sexual orientation? I have some unpleasant news for you- the "fags" are everywhere in Hollywood! If it wasn't for their many creative talents, there would be no celebrities or gossip forums for lonely straight people like yourself to post comments on. If you must insult Perez to make yourself feel better, pick on his hair, weight, or mannerisms. Leave the word "fag" out of it. You're just making yourself look like an inbred redneck fuck, which is probably what you are.
