Beyonce Sued $3 Million For Allegedly Copying Xo Song by lexiie(f): 12:59pm On Nov 06, 2014
Beyoncé who was named the highest earning female entertainer of the year 2014 is being sued for stealing a song.

According to TMZ, up and coming singer Javon Lane is suing Bee for stealing a song from her.

“I believe my copyrighted musical work has been infringed upon,” a 27-year-old artist named Javon contends in a new federal lawsuit.
The song ‘XO’ which is on her fifth studio album. Javon Lane is claiming that he wrote a number named ‘XOXO’ and shared it with another singer who does background vocals for Beyoncé , the track supposedly ended up in her hands and a copycat track emerged.

Radar Online states that Javon is asking for millions in damages from Knowles in the handwritten complaint that he filed in New York without a lawyer.

The judge granted him “pauper” status — which waives his court fees — because he said he makes just $2,800 a month working for Carnival Cruise Lines.

Beyoncé is now being sued for $3 million. Well she definitely has more than enough to spare to clear this lawsuit but would Queen Beyonce let her image get tarnished by Javon lee ? or is this just a way for the up and coming singer to get popular or even hustle ?

Both versions of the song well doesn't sound same tho …I really wonder what his allegations are ?

Listen to both versions of the song below! share in the comments whether or not you think Knowles has to worry.
