"Hot 97 jock suspended for two weeks after dissing Beyonce's mama...to her face."
Miss Jones (every month there's something) occurred last Friday during an encounter with Beyonce and her mother, Tina, which resulted in the host being suspended for the next two weeks.
A longtime critic of the singer, Jones was asked by management to leave work early to avoid any confrontation with the Knowleses, who were visiting another radio station in the same building to promote Beyonce's upcoming album, "B'Day." But a time mixup caused Jones and the Knowles camp to come face to face in the hallway.
Hot 97 jock DJ Envy recounted the entire showdown on air. (Listen here.)
In a nutshell, Beyonce shook Jones' hand and tried to give her a Hollywood kiss on the cheek. Jones, in the words of one of the jocks, gave Beyonce "the Heisman" and said she doesn't do kisses. Beyonce accepted it and moved past Jones, but her mother wasn't able to hold her tongue.
According to Envy, Tina said: "I just wanna thank you for talking about me and my daughter everyday while you're on the air. It just boosts her ratings."
Jones reportedly fired back: "Actually you should thank M.A.C. makeup for hiding all that oldness you have on your face. Now you look like the joker."
Hot 97 responded by promptly handing Jones a two-week suspension.
