HSK Exclusive - HSK was the first to reveal that 28 year old Cathy White was Jay Z’s mistress. Don’t believe me? Ask Claudia Jordan.
Yesterday, I got the news that Cathy Michelle White had suddenly passed away, so I quickly began my investigation and guess what? Cathy did not die from a brain aneurysm as reported widely around the internet today. According to an NYPD detective who told me, “Cathy’s cause of death is uncertain” and, “later today we will have the autopsy and toxicology reports”. Right now the death is considered. suspicious.
Cathy White died exactly ONE YEAR to the day from when I broke the story of her and Jay Z’s affair.
Here’s exactly what the NYPD told me:
“A 911 call came in from an apartment on 130 West 19 street in Manhattan. Ambulance came and took Cathy because she was sick. They took her to the Beth Israel hospital and that’s where she expired.
It’s was to early to be speculating that an aneurism killed her. They will be doing an autopsy later today to check out her cause of death. But someone might have given Cathy a bad drug so they’ll do a toxicology and we’ll have to wait two weeks for that report.”
Wait there’s more!!!
It has been brought to light that in addition to being Jay Z’s mistress Cathy was a high priced call girl. Two weeks prior to her death she was contacted by a major tabloid that was investigating the Jay Z connection. She gave them little information to go on – but according to one of our sources, following her conversation with the tabloid, she called Jay and told him that she was going to go public with their affair (for a price). This all happened in the last two weeks.
Then little more than 48 hours after the announcement that Beyonce was pregnant with Jay Z’s baby this young lady suddenly dies under suspicious circumstances.

Was Cathy trying to extort Jay Z? I don’t know, but if Jay Z and Cathy had a phone conversation the cops will be talking to him. Know why? Because Cathy’s death is going to be investigated mane.
Here’s what a close friend of Jay Z said:
“Are you kidding me? Jay wouldn’t throw his life away for a prostitute. Beyonce knows Jay fucks around everybody knows. if Cathy was going to expose Jay no one will believe her.
Jay got too much to lose the baby coming and all. Cathy her pimp Darrin and whoring friends were doing other things so take Jay’s name out of your conspiracy theories.”

I’ll keep you posted and give you the report of Cathy White’s autopsy as soon as I get my hands on it.

Beyonce and Gwyneth chillin on a luxury yacht
She was front row and centre to watch her perform at Glastonbury back in June. And once again Gwyneth Paltrow was right by her pregnant pal Beyonce's side as she celebrated her 30th birthday in Venice, Italy, today.
The pair were seen chatting on the deck of a luxury yacht, along with the singer's husband and the father of her first child, Jay Z.
Gwyneth, 38, appeared to have had handed over what looked to be a birthday card to her close friend.
The two certainly have plenty to catch up on, especially since Beyonce announced her pregnancy just last week.
And Gwyneth, who is mother to two children daughter Apple, six, and Moses, five, will surely have some good advice for her close friend as she gets ready for motherhood for the very first time.
Gwyneth is in Venice to promote her new movie Contagion, alongside co-star Matt Damon.
Last night, she looked dewy and youthful in a blush pink organza gown, clutch and platform heels, all by Prada.
Beyonce was also joined by other friends, including singer Erykah Badu, on the plush vessel to celebrate her Beyonce's big day.
Earlier in the day, the superstar was relaxing solo with her husband, spending some time soaking up the sun on the top deck.
She was later spotted taking a moment to tenderly cradle her baby bump as she enjoyed a refreshing juice.
She slipped her pregnancy figure into what appeared to be a pair of loose fitting white trousers and a navy vest.
Beyonce has been having a relaxing time in the romantic Italian city after she and her 41-year-old husband arrived there last week.
Over the weekend, the pair were also seen out in the romantic city of Venice enjoying a dinner date.
It is the first time that Beyonce had been pictured since she announced she is pregnant at last Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards.
The singer looked radiant and happy as she left her hotel with her husband protectively by her side.
Her burgeoning bump could be seen underneath her maxi patterned dress which had gold embroidered halter straps and Beyoncé looked positively glowing.
Beyoncé debuted her baby bump in an orange Lanvin gown and told the assembled press: 'I have a surprise!' at the MTV Video Music Awards, late last month.
And the singer didn't let her pregnancy prevent her from bringing the house down with an energetic performance.

She was cheered on Jay-Z, who performed new single Otis with Kanye West, before taking to the stage herself.
Arriving onstage in a purple glittery blazer and black trousers by Dolce & Gabbana, the mother-to-be said: 'I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me.'
After a fabulous performance of Love On Top that attracted a standing ovation from the audience, Beyoncé ripped open her jacket and proudly rubbed her baby bump.
The cameras panned to the audience where Jay-Z was beaming, as his friend Kanye jumped up and down, smacking the father-to-be on the back and shaking him.
The announcement comes after a stellar summer for the Grammy-winner in which she headlined Glastonbury and released another hit album, 4.

Now I'm a woman, and because I gave it my all, I can focus on my marriage.
'I can decide I want to have kids. I can be the mother I want to be and dedicate myself to my children.'

'But I also said I was going to retire at 30. So I don't know,' she said, adding: 'I am not retiring, I tell you.'
Pressed by Morgan she said: 'Only God knows, only God knows.'

Madonna Jets Into JFK, Announces New Album
Ladies & Gents introducing Lil Miss Bow Wow
Bow Wow told the world in a heartfelt letter that he didn’t want people to see his baby girl. However, I guess his baby mama Joie Chavis didn’t get the memo! She twitpic’ed this picture of their baby girl Shai Moss. Up until now, the world has only seen side shots of the baby girl out with Bow Wow. I wonder if this is going to be something that causes some drama between the two. I hope not! What do you think of baby Shai though? Isn’t she cute??? Who does she look like more? Bow Wow or Joie Chavis!
Doggie Dumbo: He's the hound with the world's biggest ears that will make you believe he can fly
One look at Harbor the black-and-tan coonhound, and you’ll believe a dog can fly.
Guinness World Records has named him the possessor of the longest canine ears on the planet. His left one measures 12¼in while the right is longer at 13½in.
The breed was developed to hunt raccoons, with the long ears said to help by sweeping scents towards the nose. But Harbor has had a lifelong struggle with his colossal ears, frequently tripping over them as a puppy and rolling down the stairs.
Now though, the purebred has grown into his lengthy lugholes, which have made him a celebrity. Owner Jennifer Wert, of Boulder, Colorado, said: ‘Cars will literally stop in the street to take a closer look and get a picture.
‘Most days I forget how oddly long his ears are,’ added Jennifer. ‘He’s a phenomenon in the world and he creates smiles wherever we go.’

Harbor takes the new title from Tigger (13.5 inch ears), a bloodhound from Illinois, who sadly passed away of old age two years ago.
According to Guinness World Records 2012, Harbor’s ear-span is greater than the height of the world’s shortest man, Junrey Balawing, who is 23.5 inches tall.
His ears are also wider than the smallest road-legal car, which is 26 inches wide, and you could comfortably fit the world’s shortest dog, 6 inch long Brandy, who is also from the US, on each of Harbor’s ears twice.
The latest edition of Guinness World Records is published on September 15.
