Sen. Schumer Wants Us to Leave Beyonce Alone
Not happy over the fuss made over her lip-syncing the national anthem at the inauguration ceremony
New York Senator Chuck Schumer has nothing but love for Beyonce and thinks "Lip-Synch-gate is a big nothingburger," a person close to the New York Senator and inauguration chairman told BuzzFeed.
Despite a report in New York Post Monday that Schumer was "angrily" demanding an apology from the pop star for allegedly lip-synching during the inauguration — a performance the Senator is credited with arranging — the Schumer source insisted he had no beef.

Brooklyn Nets owner Jay Z probably called Chuck to remind him who butters his bread.
I'll leave Beyonce alone when Chuck leaves me alone.
