The nephew of Destiny's Child first manager, Andretta Tillman, opens up about his time spent with Beyonce…
From the National Enquirer
Andretta Tillman’s nephew, convicted felon Belfrey Brown, confirmed to The ENQUIRER he was Beyoncé’s “babysitter” in the years before he went to prison for drug dealing.
Brown said from 1989 onward, “I was around (Beyoncé) a lot. Andretta Tillman’s my aunt. She was the original manager for ‘Destiny’s Child’ and Beyoncé. I did spend a lot of time around them in the early years. I guess you could say I was Beyoncé’s babysitter!”
In 1994, he was indicted for felony drug charges and ultimately sentenced to prison.
He confessed to The ENQUIRER: “At the time, I was selling drugs. I did get caught up in a federal indictment and I had to leave them all behind to go to prison … for 12 years.”
He wasn’t the only druggie around Beyoncé. According to another family pal, her dad was a cocaine-snorting serial cheater in those early years.
“The Making of a Child of Destiny,” a memoir by Texas family friend Brian Moore, claimed Beyoncé’s dad, Mathew Knowles, would come to meetings “high as a kite.”
The book said he often would go in Andretta’s “garage to do cocaine or other drugs” during rehearsals.
He “would come back ranting and raving” in front of the girls and Andretta, Brian claimed.
