BUSTED!!! MATHEW KNOWLES IS CAUGHT STEALING FROM BEYONCE . . AND NOW HE'S SUING THE PERSON WHO SNITCHED ON HIM!!!

According to a new LAWSUIT filed by Matthew Knowles yesterda, Mathew is claiming that Jay Z's partners at LIVE NATION orchestrated a campaign to STEAL Beyonce away from him.

So how did they get Beyonce to DROP her dad . . . simple, they told her that her dad was STEALING.

Beyonce, of course didn't take their word for it. She hired an INDEPENDENT LAW FIRM to do an ACCOUNTING . . . and it appeared that Mathew WAS in fact STEALING - so she FIRED HIM!!

Now Mathew is suing LiveNation . . . So lets get this straight. Someone TELLS Beyonce that Matt's stealing. She hires a law firm and they produce an AUDIT that says he's stealing. And now Matt's suing??? Only in America!!!
