How sad is that? Atlantic rep Michael Kyser and Universal Music's Shawn Costner decided to take hip-hop mogul Jay-Z out for a night on the town at the M2 in Chelsea. But when it came to who was actually footing the bill, the record executives both started to sweat.
"Kyser and Costner were making a big show of wanting to take Jay-Z out, so they started arguing over who got to pick up the check," Develin says. "Jay-Z ended up tipping the waitress $500 and going outside to wait."
Eventually, Develin says, the two decided to split it. After Costner's corporate MasterCard was declined, however, Kyser agreed to foot the entire bill.
"Before we could get him to sign the receipt, he left the club," Develin says. "Of course, we still have his card, so we called up his office, and his assistant told us someone would come by to sign. Weeks went by, and no one ever did. Finally, we got a call from AmEx and were told that Kyser was disputing the charge. When we called him up again, his assistant said, 'Oh, Michael says he doesn't actually remember being there' — which is crazy because we have his card and photos of him and Jay-Z."
That is literally the saddest thing I've heard all morning (well, besides the Britney stalker). If our own nation's recrod executives are having their corporate cards declined, who's next? You? Your children?
