She's in the middle...doing her own thing in a room full of basics...Blue Ivy is definitely her mama.
The 5 year old daughter of Beyonce and Jay Z and soon-to-be big sis of those twin beybaes, Blue Ivy, was werkin' her ballet recital.
The performance was at Blue's school on Saturday and the routine was to Earth, Wind and Fire's September. TMZreleased the video.
I wonder if Bey and Hov talked to the school about the leaked video tho?
Regardless, the Carters must be proud of their little Blue Blue.
STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW!
Beyonce and Jay Z have blessed us with the news that the Queen isn't pregnant with baby #2 or baby #3, BUT BOTH BABY #2 & #3!
The Carters are expecting twins!
The BeyHive was alerted of this news after our Queen Mother posted this ethereal photo on the 'gram looking like a pregnant Goddess chilling among the flowers showing her baby bump. She included a caption with the photo saying:
We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been
blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will
be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. - The Carters
This gives 5 year-old big sis, Blue Ivy, heavy big sister responsibilities now that she has TWO young siblings to look out for. This may be premature to say or state, but with her being pregnant with twins, I pondered the thought if she was undergoing fertility treatments #noneofmybusinesstho.
Bey stays keeping us on our toes, it was just a year ago she got us in Formation right before Super Bowl 50 and led us on the greatest musical journey of the year with Lemonade and the Formation World Tour.
This is great news for the family because all of the world wants more Yonce offspring, however, some people have expressed concern that we'll have to wait a little while for more music to be released. Also, the Lemonade singer is due to headline the Coachella music festival in April. Will she keep that commitment?
I highly doubt she'll back out considering she's a true pro, but lately I can't predict anything anymore.
Congrats Beyonce!!
I'm so SO happy for you!
She came.
She slayed.
She conquered.
and now I'm dead.
Not only did Beyonce kill the VMAs with her Lemonade medley, but she killed the red carpet with her 4 1/2 year old date, Blue Ivy.
Mom and daughter rocked the NYC red carpet wearing just the most glamorous gowns. Blue Blue's princess dress was a cool $11,000.
But I mean, her parents can afford it, right?
Bey also was surrounded by her squad of ladies that were featured in Lemonade as well as Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown's mother.

After performing, Bey snatched Moonmen for Video of the Year, Best Female Video, Best Pop Video, Breakthrough Long Form Video, Best Choreography, Best Cinematography and Best Editing.
She now has more Moonmen, the most for a female performer.....surpassing Madonna who was the reigning Moonman Queen with 20.

On Monday night, Queen Bey accepted, The Council of Fashion Designers of America's (CFDA) Fashion Icon Award. She did it while looking fly as hell wearing a hat that looks like it came fresh off her Formation World Tour.

Presenting the award to Beyonce was organization's chairwoman Diane von Furstenberg.

“The image of a woman being in charge has never looked more glamorous and more desirable,” von Furstenberg said. “She is everything all women want to be and after listening to her, no woman should ever feel belittled or insecure again. Talent, heart, strength and courage. That is what true style is about and all of that is what Beyoncé is the best example of.” Upon receiving the award, Bey made the most profound and powerful speech explaining how back when she was starting out in Destiny's Child, alot of designers didn't want to dress them. "When we were starting out in Destiny’s Child, high-end labels didn’t want to dress four black country girls." Boy, I bet those designers regret that choice now! It was a family affair, husband Jay Z was in attendance as well as baby Blue Ivy and mom Tina Lawson.
Read Bey's full speech here:
“Thank you Diane. It’s such an honor to receive this award from you.
You know, as long as I can remember, fashion has been a part of my life. It’s effect on me actually started before I was born.

My grandmother was a seamstress. My grandparents didn’t have much money and couldn’t afford my mother’s Catholic School. So my grandmother sewed clothes for the priests and nuns, and uniforms for the students, in exchange for my mother’s education.
She then passed this gift down to my mother and taught her how to sew.
When we were starting out in Destiny’s Child, high-end labels didn’t want to dress four black country girls. We couldn’t afford designer dresses. My mom was rejected from every showroom in New York.
But like my grandmother, she used her talent and creativity to give her children their dreams. My mother and my Uncle Jonny designed all of our first costumes and made each piece by hand…individually sewing hundreds of crystals and pearls…putting so much passion and love into every small detail. And when I wore these clothes onstage, I felt like I had an extra suit of armor. It was so much deeper than any brand name…my mother and my uncle and my grandmother were with me…I couldn’t fail.
My mother designed my wedding dress, the dress I wore when I won my first Grammy…the list goes on and on…
This to me is the true power and potential of fashion. It’s a tool for finding your own identity, expression, and strength. It transcends style and is a time capsule of our greatest milestones.
So to my mother, my uncle, and my Grandma, I just want to say thank you.
Thank you for showing me that having a presence is more than the clothes you wear or your physical beauty. Thank you for showing me how to never take no for an answer. Thank you for showing me how to take risks, work hard, and live life on my own terms.
And I want to say thank you to every designer that works tirelessly to make people feel like they can write their own story. You are fairy godmothers, magicians, sculptures…sometimes even therapists.
I encourage you to not forget this power that you have or take it lightly. We have an opportunity to contribute to a society where any girl can look at a billboard or a magazine cover and see her reflection. Soul has no color, no shape, no form…just like all of your work, it goes so far beyond what the eye can see. You have the power to change perception, to inspire and empower…to show people how to embrace their complications and flaws to see the true beauty and strength that’s inside all of us.
Talk about ending 2013 with a BANG!
Hustling on the Mrs. Carter tour while on a vegan diet and while Mr. Carter is grindin' on his Magna Carta Tour....Bey continues to slay the competition. Well, she technically bodied the competition.
Thursday night (PST), the Grown Woman singer dropped her highly anticipated album... The self-titled VISUAL album with NO promotion....NO warning. Just a little teaser on Instagram.
The album contains 14 tracks and 17 videos- whaaaat?!
NYDailyNews
Yup, you no longer have to wait for your favorite song's video to appear. It's already there.
Bey fans were highly emotional and ecstatic over the release.
The album features a major who's-who including: Jay Z, Drake and Frank Ocean and Blue Ivy. Justin
Timberlake co-wrote the songs "Rocket" and "Partition," and Pharrell,
Timbaland, Ryan Tedder, Miguel and Sia also co-wrote tracks.
Talk about an All-Star collaboration! Cop the album here for $15.99
Like the rest of America, my television on Saturday night was full of King Bey.
The only good thing about being sick over the weekend was my TV was full of copious amounts of Beyonce.
My eyes were glued to her Life is But a Dream documentary as well as her Next Chapter interview with Oprah.
I loved to be finally let into B's life, however I felt I wasn't let in all the way. Fans were still kept at arms length, which left me with some more questions. I was expecting to delve a little more into her managerial break-up with her father, her miscarriage and her life now as a mom. I felt Bey was talking in little fragments instead of whole sentences where I can fully get infomation.
But who am I kidding? This is Beyonce! She's the epitome of secret-keeping and this little bit she revealed to us, is a lot to her!
We finally got to see Baby Blue Ivy and can I just say she's ADORABLE! She looks so much like Daddy Hov.
The doc is comprised of snippets of: home movies when Beyonce was a littlem girl, concert performances, laptop video confessionals, Blue's sonogram, initmate moments of Jay and Bey singing to Coldplay's "Yellow".
Fans get a peak inside the delivery room on Blue's birthday, with Mama Knowles wrapping Bey's hair in rollers. Bey also reveals where she got the name for her baby girl, "We passed by a beautiful blue tree [overseas]. I think it's blue ivy. That
would be quite appropriate." So much for those Blueprint rumors.
From watching these two programs with the superstar, I was left with a huge amount of admiration and respect for her. She's such a hardworking woman and wanted us all to know....when it comes to matters of the heart....she's just like everyone else.
She's still trying to navigate her way through life. We think she has it all, but even the World's Most Beautiful Woman still has trouble trusting herself.
Okay, all members of the Beyhive take a seat.
Queen Bey has teamed up with HBO and will actually direct her own documentary, which will air on Febuary 13th, 2013. 13 days after she performs at the Super Bowl Half-Time show.
The documentary is being called "intimate" and "revealing" and will provide "raw, unprecedented access to the private entertainment icon and high-voltage performances." The film will also include footage shot by Beyonce on her laptop.
I can't wai tto see this because I loved "I Am...World Tour" special. Hopefully we can see more photos of Blue Ivy.
Blue Ivy's mommy is now back to work after being on maternity leave since having the bundly of joy earlier this year. However, from ths photos and videos above...you can't even tell she's been gone!
Beyonce returned to the stage at the Revel Resort in Atlantic City. Working it in the most fabulous outfits Bey tells the audience, "Y'all have no idea how hard I worked! I had to lose 60 pounds. They had me on that treadmill. I ate lettuce! Now tonight I'm gonna get chocolate wasted!"
The First Lady Michelle Obama along with her two daughters and Oprah's gal-pal, Gayle King were also in the audience.
Among performing her hits Single Ladies, Countdown, etc. Bey did a special performance of Halo to honor the late-great Whitney Houston.
Damn, Yeezy and Hov where the hell you been?!
With the Ni**as in Paris music video, that is. I tried to do a play on the lyrics from Otis.
Jay-Z and Kanye West's summer anthem has taken its sweet time on the music video front and has finally debuted this past week.
I've been anticipating this moment since I went to the Watch the Throne concert back in December when I found out they were filming for the video (at the concert I attended..among many others along the tour). Only to be very disappointed.
Seriously?! This is what you give us for one of the hottest songs on the WTT album? It looks like it took $15 to make this video with the split screen, illuminati-esque shapes and random cut-ins of royalty and zoo animals. I thought the video was going to show a montage of all the WTT shows along with backstage videos of 'Ye and Jay.
I guess the pair are busy with the birth of Blue Ivy and Kanye.....trying to holla at Kim Kardashian.
We've all been anticipating this moment for a little over a month, and now the wait is over. The first photos of Blue Ivy Carter or Notorious B.I.C. have been released to the public through Jay's website Life +Times.
We can all breathe a sigh of relief that baby Blue looks nothing like those mock photos circling the internet since her birth. She's the most beautiful newborn I've seen in a long time, not counting my two nieces and nephew. She looks a lot like her Grandma Tina Knowles.
The power couple look so precious with their little princess. I bet Beyonce is a great mother, as well as Papa Hov. Now, I'm hoping my 6 month old nephew becomes a professional athlete so he can one day marry into the Carter family!
Since the birth of the Notorious B.I.C. Jigga-Man has decided to make some changes...one of them....dropping the word bitch from his rhymes.
Jay says:
"Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich,/ I didn't think hard about using the word B—-./ I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it/now with my daughter in this world/ I curse those that give it./ I never realized while on the fast track/ that I'd give riddance to the word bitch, to leave her innocence in tact./ No man will degrade her, or call her out her name/ the women won't despise her and call her the same./ I know it's gonna miss me/ cuz we been together like Nike Airs and crisp tees/ when we all used to hang out front/ singing 99 problems but a lady ain't one./ Excuse me miss, can I be your mister/ cuz I can tell the difference from a little girl and a sister,/ She never grew up, her father left her alone/ I promise not to talk like we used to/ until Kingdom Come./ I'm so focused on your future,/ The degradation has passed/ I wish you wealth, health, and insight/ forever young you may pass./ Blue Ivy Carter, my angel."
That's great and all, but I've always wondered why he continued to refer to women as bitches when he started dating Bey. Sure, she's what we'd call a "down-ass bitch", but she's also a classy lady and am surprised she let Hov refer to herself as the "hottest bitch in the game, wearing [his] chain" and the "hot bitch in [his] home." I'm not a women's rights activist, but I guess I'm just old school and believe the word bitch isn't appropriate when referring to a female from a male's mouth.
However, Pink is the New Blog makes a good point, "We cant help but wonder if Jay will censor himself while rockin’ out live to “That’s My BLANK” on stage."
The power couple releasesd a the following statement today via Hov's blog Life and Times:
Hello Hello Baby Blue!
We are happy to announce the arrival of our beautiful daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, born on Saturday, January 7, 2012.
Her birth was emotional and extremely peaceful, we are in heaven.
She was delivered naturally at a healthy 7 lbs and it was the best experience of both of our lives.
We are thankful to everyone for all your prayers, well wishes, love and support.
Beyoncé & JAY Z
According to the Associated Press, proud papa Jay-z released the song Glory ft. B.I.C.on Life and Times today.
Through a rap verse, Jay-Z has confirmed the birth of "the most beautiful girl in the world" -- his newborn
daughter. Note how the song says featuring B.I.C. That's short for Blue Ivy Carter.
Reps for the superstars repeatedly declined requests for comment from The Associated Press about whether the birth had occurred, as first reported by E! News. But Jay-Z's sweet song gives fans the
details, and more.
In the song, Jay-Z mentions baby Blue being conceived in Paris (wonder if there's any connection to Ni**as in Paris?) and even reveals that Beyonce had a miscarriage at one point. "Baby, I paint the sky blue, my greatest creation was yo u, you. Glory…
I wreak havoc on the world, get ready for part two, a younger smarter faster me, so a pinch of Hov, a whole glass of Bey…
Last time, the miscarriage was so tragic. We was afraid you’d disappear but nah, Baby you magic!
So there you have it, shit happens, just make sure the plane you on is bigger than your carry-on baggage.
Everybody goes through stuff, life is a gift, Love, open it up. You’re a child of destiny. You’re the child of my destiny. You’re my child with the child from Destiny’s Child. That’s a hell of a recipe."
The sound of a baby's cries ends the song, which is believed to be the newborn.
It's the day we've all been waiting for! Beyonce has given birth to Blue Ivy Carter! I wonder if her middle name has anything to do with her father's Blueprint album?
According to GMA, the couple chose "Ivy" because of the significance of the number "4" or "IV," -- Beyonce and Jay-Z were born on Sept. 4 and Dec. 4, respectively, were married on April 4, 2008, and Beyonce's latest album is entitled 4.)
Beyonce gave birth at New York City’s Lenox Hospital on Saturday night (January 7) with husband Jay-Z by her side.
According to the NY Daily News, "Miss Knowles checked in under the name of Ingrid Jackson with ABC News telling that she arrived at the hospital on Friday night. Doing everything possible to keep the birthing process a private affair, Beyoncé and Jay-Z are said to have shelled out a hefty $1.3 million to rent out the entire fourth floor of Lenox Hospital during their stay - though another hospital source dismissed the claim, saying, “We don’t have entire floors sitting empty at Lenox Hill.”
