Standard Hotel employee fired (for Solange footage)

THREE'S A CROWD: Officials from N.Y.'s Standard Hotel, site of the buzzing elevator fracas between Solange, Jay Z and Beyoncé, have identified the staff member who sold the controversial footage of Solange attacking her sister's husband to the media. The pay-cut won't leave him going hungry, though; the individual reportedly shopped the clip around for five days before selling it to TMZ for $250k. According to representatives from the standard, the act was a "breaching [of] the security policies of the hotel," and "The Standard has already terminated the individual and will now be pursuing all available civil and criminal remedies. The Standard will next be turning over all available information to the criminal authorities.” (5/15p)
