Tina Knowles Addresses Jay-Z Controversy Over Allegations
Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, came under fire recently after her account was seen liking a post regarding allegations between her son-in-law, Jay-Z, and Sean “Diddy” Combs.
The post was about rape allegations made in a refiled lawsuit that shook the entertainment industry.
Tina Knowles: “I Was Hacked!”
In response to the controversy, Tina Knowles took to Instagram to clarify her stance, claiming her account was hacked. “As you all know, I do not play about my family. So if you see something uncharacteristic of me, just know that it is not me!” she wrote.

The Allegations Behind the Post
The refiled complaint alleges Jay-Z and Diddy attacked a 13-year-old girl at an MTV VMAs after-party in 2000. The legal accusations have received widespread attention, but the two music moguls have both flatly denied the accusations. Jay-Z’s lawyers have filed a motion to have the case dismissed, which they characterized as a “calculated extortion scheme.”
