Get ready world! Blue Ivy Carter is ready for her first photo op. After being announced at the VMAs and shutting down an entire hospital, we expected the first photos of Beyonce and Jay-Z‘s little girl to come on the front page of a magazine. At the very least, she could show up on Ellen or something.
Nope, after months of over-exposure, the Carter family dropped their little girl’s first photos on a Friday afternoon on their personal website. More »
Lenox Hill hospital may have released a statement denying the allegations that parents were prevented access to their babies in the NICU, as well as general mobility about the hospital. However, The New York Times reports multiple accounts from parents who describe Beyonce‘s birth as eclipsing their own needs as patients. More »
Who says that Beyonce‘s pregnancy was fake? Reports may have surfaced that Beyonce delivered newborn Blue Ivy via c-section on Saturday night but a statement by the singer herself and her mogul husband Jay-Z say otherwise. The couple recently took a break from baby bliss to set the record straight in a quick press release. And they even disclosed Blue’s birth weight! More »
Was Beyonce really pregnant? Beyonce fake pregnancy rumors are far from extinguished even though she and Jay-Z have welcomed Blue Ivy into the world. While there’s no denying that a little girl was born in Lenox Hill Hospital on Saturday night and that such a commotion kept parents out of the NICU, there exists videos, photos, and multiple theories suggesting that Beyonce was not carrying her. Although there was speculation for awhile that Beyonce was enhancing her baby bump for public appearances, certain tidbits suggest that a surrogate was involved — which is a perfectly viable route to motherhood as far as we’re concerned. But the way Beyonce’s carrying on, it’s obvious that a stigma for surrogacy lingers for contemporary mothers. So from that infamous video of her belly collapsing to certain details of Blue’s birth, let’s review all together now. More »
Pregnant Beyonce chatted with Katie Couric recently and aside from plugging her new concert film, which she edited and produced herself, the Grammy winner described how those fake pregnancy rumors are impacting her family. More »
Beyonce just can’t seem to evade those pesky fake pregnancy rumors. In her new video for the single “Party,” the 30-year-old expectant mom prances about in mini shorts, low-cut swimsuits, and loose-fitting tanks. And although some women don’t “pop” until the second trimester, it’s worth noting that this video with J.Cole was filmed in August — right before debuting her big baby bump at the VMAs. More »
Beyonce and Jay-Z are building a 2,200-square-foot nursery for their unborn child in their Tribeca loft. (To put it into perspective, imagine your own apartment and multiply it by four – then go and pour yourself a nice stiff drink.) So the question isn’t “Boy or girl?” or even “Hang on a minute, is Beyonce really preggers?” but rather “How exactly do you fill a 2,200-square-foot nursery?!” From modern classics to animal-inspired art, we’ve rounded up the most stylish pieces fit for a king (or hip-hop royalty, anyway).

Despite releasing her “Countdown” video not too long ago in which we all saw her pregnant tummy, Beyonce has just debuted another video for her other single “Love On Top” without such a bump. Assumptions are made that this video was shot during Bey’s first trimester in which her pregnancy wasn’t so visible. Still, watching the singer dance around in a leotard has done nothing but fuel those rumors that her pregnancy is perhaps fake or being enhanced.

Ever since footage appeared of the performer’s bump collapsing during a TV interview, there is speculation that the star may be faking her pregnancy altogether or perhaps enhancing her bump for public appearances. She was spotted in New York City today and from the looks of the outfit she threw together, she intends to prove that she’s with child. More »
The internet is still buzzing with speculation regarding the peculiar footage of Beyonce‘s bump deflating upon taking a seat during an Australian interview. And while Bey’s publicist has even been forced to speak up on the matter of the pregnancy’s being fake, there is always the possibility that the performer is enhancing her tummy for public appearances.

The rumors have begun: Beyonce is faking her pregnancy! Her baby is nothing more than a prosthetic bump! Whether or not the rumors are true remains to be seen but, still, Beyonce is no dummy. She plans to reach out to expectant moms everywhere with a new maternity collection under the House of Deréon line she produces with her mother, Tina Knowles. More »
The footage of Beyonce‘s not true to pregnancy belly folding over in her dress has done more than shock fans and the press. If the performer has decided on a surrogacy route to motherhood, her decision to falsely portray a pregnancy says just as much about how our culture treats women who choose surrogates as it does about her personal choices.

So Beyonce did a sit-down interview Sunday night with an Australian television show and a very odd thing happened. When walking to the interviewer and sitting down, Beyonce’s tummy collapsed revealing only a sagging dress. The bump then popped back into shape suggesting the belly to be prosthetic of some kind.

Beyonce‘s new video for “Countdown” hit the interwebs today and aside from the spectacular visuals and always engaging dancing, the Grammy winner manages to get away with everything pregnant women aren’t “supposed” to do. Awesome on her part, we say. More »
Have you heard? Jessica Simpson is pregnant! Or so says In Touch Weekly magazine, which would never lie about such matters. Anyway, we’re happy for Simpson, who’s planning to marry baby-daddy Eric Johnson in November. She’s come a long way, from proud virgin to virgin-cocktail-drinker (that’s what an anonymous source told In Touch – Simpson has been craving non-alcoholic margaritas). Anyhow, I hope her pregnancy goes smoothly, though I’m already feeling badly about the fact that she’s about to get ripped apart by the media big-time for – gasp! – gaining weight. More »
Let’s file this one under the “Thanks For Comin’ Out!” category. Britney Spears, the same woman who once drove a car with her infant on her lap, is the latest celeb to offer up unsolicited pregnancy advice to Beyonce. More »
When Beyonce first broadcasted her pregnancy to the world last month during the Video Music Awards, I was unable to muster up the usual excitement I have when a woman near or far – celebrity or otherwise – is pregnant. In fact, my response to the “good news” was not G-rated. More »
Apparently Beyonce Knowles and Gwyneth Paltrow are besties. Or so it would seem from all the pregnancy advice Beyonce is receiving from Gwyneth. Tips such as “Drink a shot of wheatgrass each morning” and “Rub belly with coconut oil to prevent stretch marks.” Oh, and my personal fave, “Meditate for an hour every day.” More »
Remember the days when pregnancy was, well, totally unsexy? Yeah, neither do we. But once upon a time, people kept their pregnancies lo-pro, I am told, and appearing preggo and naked on the cover of a magazine was considered groundbreaking (just ask Demi Moore).
Now it couldn’t be hotter. In fact, Beyonce‘s baby news has set a new Twitter record. More »
