Report Rhymes With Snitch:
From Page Six
Robert De Niro and Jay-Z got into a tense beef at Leonardo DiCaprio’s birthday bash the other night, when De Niro called the rapper disrespectful, Page Six can exclusively reveal.
Spies say “Godfather II” and “Taxi Driver” star De Niro gave Jay a dressing-down in a roomful of celebs including Martin Scorsese because the rap mogul had refused to return De Niro’s calls.
Sources add that Jay tried to joke his way out of the situation, and even his wife, Beyoncé, tried to intervene, but De Niro wouldn’t back down.
“Bob was sitting at a table, and when Jay-Z went over to say hello, De Niro told Jay that he never called him back,” a source says.
A spy then overheard De Niro complaining to the rapper, a fellow TriBeCa resident, about a song Jay-Z agreed to record for the Tribeca Film Festival. De Niro had reached out to discuss further details, but Jay never returned his calls.
“Bob wasn’t in any mood to make polite conversation,” the spy says. “He told Jay that if somebody calls you six times, you call them back. It doesn’t matter who you are, that is just rude.”
When Jay-Z tried to make a joke of it, saying he is terrible on the phone, a source says, “De Niro kept telling him that he thinks he’s the man, but that he was disrespectful.’ ”
“Beyoncé came over, but that didn’t calm Bob down,” the source said, adding that afterward, “It was the talk of the party.
I see said the blind man. And now…
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you it is terribly rude to tell people that their troubles are boring. Act like you get it.
Robert De Niro’s a real dude, he’s not on that “kiss-up” shit that Jay-Z is on. When it comes down to it Jay-Z don’t know how to be humble.
“Oh so that’s the illest n*gga in Nebraska, put a kite out on that n*gga!”
Jay better be cool, them ain’t Roc-A-Fella boys he dealin’ wit’…
CAnt agree with that jewelry their bruh sounding a little hollywood to me with that…Along the way to the road to success someone gave you, Jay or whomever the opportunity to be heard. I agree with Bob and jay sold out trying to be political and joke his way out the situation with his new friends. But Robert been there done that,been around that crowd for years and dont care what they think. he ja like put jay in his place, u new to this lefvel homie be humble. real talk you ever get too the level where u think ur success or money allows you too do that, take a hard look at yourself.
Derrick i think you misunderstood the jewlery. I speak fluent ebengregory….and i think the translation goes like this:
troubles = 6 calls about business
boring = no returned calls
rude = actionless jigga man
You would be correct in your assessment.
I speak fluent EG, but I didn’t understand a word Derrick was sayin… congrats on the decipher
You know you’re kind of a big deal when Deniro goes bitching about a phone call you never returned.
that’s what I was thinking. DeNiro is too old to let a black rapper offend him. he sounds hurt.
