MISS JONES VS. TINA KNOWLES

The latest Hot 97 drama with Miss Jones (every month there'ssomething) 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. 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.
