JAY-Z was caught up in a race row when bouncers at his BRITs after-show party “banned” white people from boozing with the star.
Chart legend Jay-Z threw a lavish bash but music industry executives, journalists and revellers were turned away from the roped-off area because of the colour of their skin.
Minders were spotted banning clubbers from the private event because they were not “of colour”.
The venue was top new members’ club Merah, in Oxford Circus, central London. But the party, put on by the Collective Entertainment Group, upset many of the chart favourites who turned up.
Among those left furious by the bizarre rulings were top black celebs. JLS hunk Oritsé Williams and Strictly Come Dancing judge Alesha Dixon, 31, stormed out.
One clubber said: “The security guards were happy to let in all party-goers apart from the white people.
“Girls were being pushed from pillar to post and shouting at each other, yet the security bulldogs paid no attention, despite scenes of violence right under their noses.”
Alesha told the Daily Star on the night: “My friends have been getting knocked about and no-one seems to care.
“I need to get out of here. I’d rather be at my local kebab shop Elsie’s right now than back inside with all that aggro.
“What a horrible end to the night. I was having a blast at my record label party and now the mood is soured. I wish I’d never come.”
Many other stars partied the night away at other “mixed” parties across the capital.

Don’t you just love the black thug culture....so many redeeming qualities....I look forward to 2050 when whites will be a minority in this country....everyone singin’ kumbaya and all....
I hope he can finance his own recordings/promotions because doing this to the record company execs could be fatal to ones career.
If it’s OK for the government and educational institutions to treat people differently because of their race, why shouldn’t a private citizen be able to? As long as whites are the ones being excluded, I don’t see why he would be in any trouble.
Yeah I’m sure he banned all the hot white chicks too.
I really don’t care, as long as its OK both ways.
The Klan with a tan.
I hope not to be alive in 2050.
The Camel doesn’t wanna get down with folks like me?
I think I’ll live.
Agreed! These vermin have done more harm to blacks than any vicious white racist could dream of. And this crap passes for “art.” My God, if this is art, art doesn’t exist.

Jay-Z: President Obama Was Playing The Blueprint When I Called Him
‘I’ve been invited to the White House a couple of times,’ Hov tells the BBC.
"Ann Coulter, do you still want to carpet bomb countries because you despise their religion?"
I don’t like his music...and I don’t think I would like drinking with the thug.......The only reason I would go backstage was to talk to Beyonce.....LOL
neither do I with the possible exception of “new york”
Jay Z is Bammy’s Fav!!! Those Black racists must stick together!!
My Jay-Z trading cards just went down the toilet.
That’s about how I feel. Private party...he can do whatever he wants. Just acknowledge what it is (discrimination) and don’t complain when karma shows up.
I bet they could still buy in to an NFL team, though.
Racist bast**d.
When Jay-Z finds out about this...hooooo, doggie.
