Beyoncee Knowles fired her dad/manager after the claims of sexual harassment made against him by one of her dancers. The rumors about Mathew Knowles's adultery were made public last week by a WBLS Radio gossip maven, Wendy Williams. And it looks like it wasn't its first.

It all come to an end and now Beyonce doesn't want her dad to manage her career any more. "The final straw came during a conversation with one of her backing dancers who convinced her it was time to make a fresh start".

Company's workers have been asked to sign confidentiality agreement that forbids them to talk about Knowles and his current business situation.

A source close to the company said: "Mathew is not in picture anymore. They don't know where he is. From a bottom line financial point of view, Sanctuary Urban can't last."

Knowles began managing his daughter in the early nineties during the formation of Destiny's Child with Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and their friends LaTavia Roberson and LeToya Luckett.
