: MediaTakeOut.com just learned of some STUNNING news. Money donated to Wyclef's charity Yele Haiti was reportedly going to support his JUMPOFF and not the people of Haiti.
Our good friends over at Gawker and The Smoking Gun have been doing some research on Wyclef's charity, Yele Haiti. And according to them, Wyclef was using the charity's money to pay one of his jumpoffs named Zakia Khatou-Chevassus more than a hundred thousand dollars.
Here's an excerpt from a report on Gawker's website:
[Yele Haiti] paid Khatou-Chevassus $105,000 as an independent contractor in 2008 for "program development." That amounts to roughly one-third of all the money Yele spent that year on management and general expenses.We think that this dude needs to be investigated. Cause we texted him and his charity a whole lotta money already . . . And that money was supposed to be going to Haiti . . . not to his jumpoffs…So what did she do for that money? Khatou-Chevassus is currently listed on Yele's web site as the organization's vice president. But according to five sources familiar with Yele's operations, in 2008 she served as Jean's personal assistant -working on his commercial endeavors as well as his charitable ones- and was involved romantically with the former Fugees star.
"She worked for Wyclef on all Wyclef matters," says one source who has worked with Jean in the past. "She did whatever Wyclef needed that day, whether it was related to Yele or not. She would do things like book flights, and she wasn't very good at it. It's a shame that she made that much money." The source said Khatou-Chevassus' salary amounted to more than three times what Suzie Sylvain, Yele Haiti's dedicated program director who is credited by many Yele Haiti insiders with actually keeping the organization running, was paid.
"Everyone knows they were in a relationship," says another source familiar with Yele Haiti. "A dozen people, including me, saw and knew. It wasn't a secret."
I knew there was something fishy about dude being all over that Haiti earthquake....yes you are Haitian, but why do you have to be at the center of everything. Notice how he's all over the new version of we all the world. Yes wycleff you are indeed haitian, but this isn't your spotlight it's haiti's spotlight.
Someone better trace his family tree and find out if he has any Duvalier in his grimy ass. He is sounding more and more like the Papa Doc of Haitian charities.
"If I were president. I'd steal my peep's cash on Friday. For some pu$$y on Saturday. Pay my jumpoff on Sunday. Then steal some more on Monday. If I were president."
See that is why I didnt give a damn dime to Haiti, those n*gggas down there are crooked as hell. Haitians are as corrupt a people as exist, only the Nigerians are worse. Yall dummies donating money only to have this coon take it and give it to his damn mistress. I bet most of those haiti donations are in somebody pocket right now and the people aint even getting helped
ROFLMAO....Poor Wyclef he just can't seem to get a break....Wyclef is what you call a industry whore/player and his wife is ok with that.....Over the water men are known to just mess around sleep around and be the slutts that they are and call it...."I was just having a moment"........Yea Right! Head for the hills ladies.......
That picture is funny like that!!
Lol.. You all was fooled to donate that money to his charity. that money goes right in his pocket.The more earthquakes the mo money for him and his jumpoffs. Dnt be fooled.Do you really think he's goingto give the people in haiti that money??? dnt be stupid. them people are walking around bare footed starving hungry and looting and are not going to to see a dime. Waiste of yll money not my money.
First of all, RED CROSS has been corupt in the past too so the organization is not all that. (research it)
Two, correct me if I am wrong but it said in 2008 her contract business was paid....that is over two years ago. Third, like all nonprofits, they have a board and other things who determine the pay of the employees. So, Let's not take these media websites word for this. Even if there was something fishy in the past, he really cared about helping his country. So lets STOP with all the negative comments towards him.
People always trying to bring a brotha down.
MTO yall are so stupid sometimes. So what Wyclef and Matt Damon were the only 2 celebrities over in Haiti 2 days after it happen. He did alot for his country. And if he has his jump off working for him so what a personal assistant in the music industry makes about 100k-150k a year anyway and she's the vp of his charity stop downing our black people
Well, it's not like people didn't know or were forewarned about his shady/questionable dealings. People made excuses and looked the other way and sent their "TEXT" for Haiti anyway. How do you like knowing that he probably diverted your money to enhance his lifestyle and those around him while the victims of the Haiti Earthquake, poverty, and starvation continue to suffer? Stop being a sucka & licking the lollipop. Live & Learn sent to reputable organizations. smh at stupidity
TexasGlamourChic Flag post I don't believe this, people have been saying negative things about this man since this sh*t first happened when he was the first celebrity over there picking up debris and trying to rescue people by himself! Say what you want about Wyclef but I think his feelings about this travesty has been sincere and real from the very beginning
@texas co sign wit cha on that
The following statement by MTO is PURE BULLSHIIT! "Cause we texted him and his charity a whole lotta money already . . . And that money was supposed to be going to Haiti . . . not to his jumpoffs…". Even IF (and I do mean if) MTO texted them money, BELIEVE ME it was not in 2008 when this supposedly happened anyway so it wouldn't affect them. Think about it!!!!!!!
whatsmysex Flag post If he would have given it to me then he wouldn't have anything to worry about. I wouldn't have told no one.
hol...lup....WAIT A MINUTE 1st of all aint nobody giving any animals money you CAT FACE!...(LAUGHS)...BESIDES WHAT YOU GUNNA DO WITH THE MONEY..CHOP OFF THAT DYCK OF YOURS AND MY SUGGESTINGS TO YOU IS TO GET A PRETTY FACe!
Over how much time? Does she work in the charity office? If so she should be paid for her work.
I think some other charities are JEALOUS and let out this LIE, and you MTO fell for it. Shame on you!
Who much are the other charities paying their 'friends'? We know they LOSE money and it disappears. REPORT THAT!!
Even if these allegation are true, Wyclef is no worse than the Red Cross and donations for Hurricane Katrina victims. A lot of the funds donated for Louisiana residents went to support other causes within the organization in addition to their overhead costs. I am sticking with Wyclef until I know the absolute truth. People don't want a black man spearheading ANYTHING progressive. The easiest thing to do is to start a rumour or innuendo and spin it.
black people are insane, this guy wyclef has allegation after allegation coming out with proof and legible sources and because hes in the hiphop community people still wont believe hes a fraud and stole a part of the donations. EVERY PRESS CONFERENCE OR INTERVIEW HE DOES HE WONT COME OUT AND SAY HE DIDNT TAKE SOME OF THE DONATIONS TO PLACE IN HIS COMPANY, ALL HE DOES IS TRY TO CONVEY TO THE PUBLIC WHAT HE DONE IN THE PAST IN RELATION TO HAITI.
So FU(KING WHAT?! So what if he give or paid the b!tch $200 thousand dollars! How much of his money & personal time have he spend helping his country? Your bosses & the companies that u work for rape & steal from ur azzes every damn time! Wher are ur bleeding hearts of concern?!....smdh/what a bunch of morons & brainwash SLAVES!
some of the excuses im reading is so damn dum and idiotic.
WillieFonte75 its ok he gives a girlfriend donation money because the comapanies we work for rape and still from us. clearly this is a person that dont work, if you get a paycheck you are not being rapped .
bklynkey718 another excuse is why is this black website reporting on black illegal activity. well idiot because we the black people are the victims you idiot
Ya'll just cool out. At the end of the day God knows you gave out the goodness of ur heart. If that were ur intention there is no need to ask for money back because u did what u felt God wanted u to do. So don't trip. Why? Because those that do wrong shall have to answer to someone way bigger than us.
JESUS CHRIST is COMING BACK [SPEND THE REST OF LIFE IN HEAVEN OR HELL] I CHOOSE HEAVEN WITH OUR LOVING SAVIOR!..HE IS THE ONLY REAL AND TRUE GOD"JOHN 14;6 NO ONE CAN KNOW GOD EXCEPT THROUGH HIM..[JESUS CHRIST] JUST SIMPLY SAY JESUS I REPENT OF MY SINS,,I HAVE SINNED AGAINST YOU..FORGIVE ME LORD AND COME INTO MY HEART..IN JESUS NAME AMEN..
That's bullshit! Why the in the hell would yall even post this [EXPLETIVE]. Wyclef has been out there grinding for Hati and doing whatever he can to help out. When Hati was in trouble hew was right there on the ground helping out. His books have always been wide open for review because as he has said plenty of times he has nothing to hide. MTO yall are some [EXPLETIVE] busters for even playing into this [EXPLETIVE]. Why would you try to tear this man's name down when he is one of the few celebrity's who give a damn about what's going in the world. Yall some lame, ignorant ass [EXPLETIVE].
I REALLY WISH YOU F@KIN DUMB AMERICANS SHOULD MIND YOUR DANM BIZZ WHY DONT YOU GUYS TAKE CARE OF YOU CITIZEN WITH THEIR BAD TEETH, BREATH AND YOU'RE EXTRA OVER WEIGHT PROBLEMS.STOOPID KFC CLICK. WHY DONT YOU GUYS EAT YOUR DANM SWEET POTATO AT FRIDAYS HUH!!!
WYCLEF DID SO MUCH FOR HAITI, EVEN YOUR PREZ WOULD'NT DO, NO RED CROSS NO NOTHING.. HE DID SO MUCH FOR MY COUNTRY.. BUT OFF COURSE YOU GUYS ARE NOT POSTING THIS BUT YOU CAN BRING HIM DOWN RIGHT!!??
'KOLON GUIETTE MANMAN NOU TOUTE. BANDE KAKA CHIEN. KOKO RATE. CHAMPWELL...BANDE VAL PAYE..ALL LAVÉ BOUNDA NOU!
@Tyte, if americans minded their own business haiti wouldn't get 10% of the money they got in charity. americans have a right to know whats up with that crooked haitian wyclef. he lives in america, he took money from americans and haitians are a huge ass charity case. like i said before, i didn't donate [EXPLETIVE] when the crisis was hot n new so i don't care what wyclef did with that money. not 1 penny of it is mine. ha ha ha ha haitians sucks!! broke ass charity country.
People are so sad. What happened in Hati could happen right here in America and the way you people are acting is so ignorant. Hati did not ask for this to happen to them, it has nothing to do with them being a charity country or what they eat it is about human beings, human compassion. What the [EXPLETIVE] is wrong with you guys? SMH, MTO you guys are [EXPLETIVE] up for even putting all this negativity into this horrible situation.
I REALLY WISH YOU DUMB AMERICANS WOULD READ A BOOK. IF YOU KNEW WHAT YOUR COUNTRY DID TO SO MANY COUNTRIES...DESTRUCTION...TALKIN WE UNGRATEFUL..AMERICA IS USING THE EARTHQUAJE TO TAKE OVER HAITI...
WE ALWAYS SEE IN THE NEWS THE BAD SIDE OF HAITI BUT WE NEVER SEE THE BEAUTIFUL AREA.. THEY KEEP SAYING ITS A POOR COUNTRY BUT WHEN I GO ON VACATION IN HAITI I ONLY SEE A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY... IF YOU GUYS COULD ONLY ONCE READ THE HISTORY OF HAITI AND KNEW WHAT AMERICA HAS DONE TO HATI, LOUISIANA, PHILLIPINES, ARGENTINA, SOUTH AFRICA YOU WOULD UNDERTSAND.
AMERICA DOES NOT WANT THE BLACK TO BE PROSEPEROUS, UNLESS YOU ARE A PART OF FREEMASONS...WYCLEF OWNS EVERYTHING IN HIS CHARITY CIE...AND THE WHITE AMN DOES NOT LIKE THAT...THEY WILL DO ERRRYTHING TO PUT HIM DOWN. BUT PEOPLE DONT SEE IT...STOP BEEING BLIND AND BELIVE WHAT THE MEDIA IS TELLING YOU.
pS: REMEMBER WE FROM THE SAME BOAT...HAITIANS DONT EAT CATS...LOL THAT WAS A FUNNY COMMENT. dONT BELIVE THE WHITE MEDIA.. ITS BETTER TO READ BOOKS AND LEARN.
