Beyonce and Jay Z's Twins are Here!

Instagram: @beyonce

Like many of us Beyhive members, we've been scouring through Beyonce, Miss Tina and Solange's social media accounts for SOME photos or some confirmation from the family of the long-awaited arrival of the Carter twins.
Are they fraternal?
Identical?
WHAT!?

Various media reports confirmed the birth via sources and visitors to the Los Angeles hospital with pink and blue balloons and presents....then grandpa Mathew Knowles finally confirmed.
I'm sure Bey loved that *insert eyeroll*

TMZ reports that the twins were actually born on Monday, however the news was leaked on Saturday. TMZ says a " "minor issue' surfaced, and as a result..doctors do not feel comfortable releasing them." Sources say that Bey is okay, but no word on what the issue is and when she will be released.

Fans have been waiting on these widdles ones since Beyonce's Instagram announcement in February. Since then she's been killing the fashion game, rescheduled her Coachella appearance to 2018 and almost made us faint at the Grammys.

Here's hoping Bey and les twins have a speedy and safe recovery.
Can't wait to see the photos!!!

Beyonce Posts Pregnancy Photoshoot on her Website Following News that She's Having Twins

 Just when we were all reeling from the exciting news of the upcoming birth of not one (Beyonce), but TWO Beyonces (Beytwice)....the queen posted a pregnancy photo shoot on her website that basically $h!ts on everyone else.
But what did we expect?
On the site, Bey claims she has three hearts and shows old photos chronicling her relationship with Jay, then moves on to when big sissy Blue was born and then their journey together up until present day.

Beyonce's 3 hearts explained:

She then displays an array of photos that almost look like they're from the Hold Up video with her swimming with her swollen belly.
So, if she's swimming while pregnant, she can perform at Coachella right?

Anyway, these photos have given me the ultimate life and have definitely brightened up my winter as well as the rest of the world.

Beyonce Expecting Twins!

Instagram: @Beyonce

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!

Shopaholism: Beyonce Debuts News Holiday Merch on her Website

Fine, Queen Bey...just TAKE all my money!
I've been lusting for holiday Beyonce swag since Beyonce wore the ugly Christmas sweater in the 7/11 video back in 2014.
Since that has disappeared from the internet, I've been dying to show my holiday spirit while paying homage to the Queen.
Welp, my prayers have been answered.
On Cyber Monday on Bey's website she released some holiday-Lemonade-inspired clothing, accessories and wrapping paper for her Beyhive.

I want all of these things!!!!

What do you like?

Beyonce Performs at the 50th Country Music Awards Alongside the Dixie Chicks

beyonce.com

...and I thought the Dixie Chicks returning was a big deal!

Oh, country music you're luring me in.

Usually I skip through Daddy Lessons on Lemonade, but now we're all country fans after Queen Bey and the Dixie Chicks represented the Lone Star State and performed together.

It.was.epic.

Didn't Bey slay that dress tho!?!

Not only was it great that they sang the hit off of Bey's surprise album, they also weaved in Long Time Gone, the group's 2002 hit.

A few months back when Lemonade was fresh, the Dixie Chicks performed the song at a performance and it went viral.
 The band hails from Texas as well as Beyonce so they have that bond and of course, they're members of the Beyhive.

Ok! I can finally talk about one of the greatest weeks of my life! Thank you @Beyonce ! You slay. All day! pic.twitter.com/XJCOrdweih

Beyonce and Jay Z: Date Night at the Warriors Season Opener

Twitter: @lovebscott

Warriors fans flocked to Oracle arena on Tuesday night excited for the NBA season opener and to see their new addition Kevin Durant take to the court for the regular season.
However, these fans got an extra treat!
Beyonce and Jay Z arrived in the second half to take in the game.
I'm assuming their Dubs fans.
BTW, I'm mad Bey was in the Bay...and I didn't know until hours later.
The couple looked fresh to death with Beyonce rocking an Ivy Park parka, green metallic sock boots and of course, her own dad hat featuring an emoji of her Hold Up ensemble.

Beyonce Keeps Singing Even with an Ear Injury

What a professional!
At the Tidal X: 1015 concert in Brooklyn on Saturday night, Queen Bey gave a phenomenal performance with a mix of 6 Inch and Haunted.
While singing her heart out at the Barclays Center, her superhuman braid ripped out one of her earrings causing her ear to bleed.
Yes, you read that right.
Beyonce was singing, while blood was dripping down her ear.
She just gently wiped it away without missing a beat.
She even came back to perform All Night without even a Band-Aid!

The Tidal X: 1015 concert benefits the Robin Hood Foundation, which is an organization to raise money to end poverty in NYC.

While Bey was killing it onstage, she didn't let the audience forget that they had to vote on November 8th. 

"I know this year has been extremely hard for us," she told the crowd. "I know sometimes I've felt powerless and frustrated. There's been so much negativity and nonsense. It can be easy to feel hopeless and want to just block the world out, but doing nothing right now is not an option, y'all. I know it seems like things are bad, but if you think they can't get worse, just ask your grandparents."

"Remember, Barack Obama is our president," Queen Bey continued. "You made that happen. Young people made that happen. We are not helpless. The fire is still burning. Please go out and vote this November. So many people have died and sacrificed so much for us to have our voice. We have to use it. Get in formation. Use our voices to do something great for our children."

Know Young M.A. and Listen to "OOOUUU"

Young M.A.'s IG@hennynhoes

You may have heard it on the radio, at the club or on Beyonce's instagram.

OOOUUU is the song of the summer and if you haven't heard it, you better get on it.

It reminds me a lot of Bobby Shmurda's Hot Ni**a. With the beat and the sirens blowing, it is reminiscient of the 2014 hit, but like this article on Inverse says, Young M.A.'s got bars.

So who is she?
M.A. stands for me always. Hailing from Brooklyn, M.A. is from the Bed-Stuy neighborhood once home to Biggie, HOV and Lil' Kim. The 24 year old credits 50 Cent as her earliest rap influence. M.A. claims she's been rapping since she was 9 years old.
Right now she's not signed to a major label, but I'm pretty sure this is going to be happening soon. She's a female rapper on the way to killing the game from both the males and females, which offers a fresh perspective rap fans haven't heard in a while.

I just want to say thank you to everyone for all the beautiful and thoughtful birthday wishes. I am so fortunate to have the love and support of my family, my friends, and my hive. We've grown up together and you guys continue to inspire and motivate me everyday. I'm so grateful for every challenge, every smile, every tear, every discovery, every sacrifice, every triumph, every stretch mark, every kiss, every scar. I strive to make you proud. I love YOOOUUUU!!! 😙B

Beyonce's Dance Captain Gets the Ultimate Marriage Proposal

 
 If this isn't a proposal goal, I don't know what is.
At the St. Louis performance on her Formation World Tour, Beyonce helped orchestrate the ultimate marriage proposal for her dance captain, Ashley Everett and her fiance John Silver.
While performing Single Ladies  onstage, Bey interrupts the performance and calls backup dancer, Silver, to the stage.
Dressed in a suit, he expresses his love for Everett calling her his Queen.
From there he puts a ring on it.
Bey tries to congratulate the couple, but realizes it's a little too soon and slyly walks away.
She then finds the right opportunity, congratulates the future Mr. and Mrs. Silver, then they get back to bidness.
Congrats John and Ashley!

Throwback Monday

              I've been blessed to see the Formation World Tour a second time on Saturday, so to honor this momentous occasion.
Also, I wanted to honor Usher having his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
If you didn't know, Usher is in this video. LOL.

Beyonce Celebrates 35th Birthday Soul Train Style

After killing the MTV VMAs and then making an appearance at the Made in America festival in Philly, all while on the 3rd leg of her Formation World Tour; Beyonce had time to celebrate herself.
Queen Bey turned 35 on Sunday and celebrated with a star-studded birthday party in NYC on Monday night.
However, this wasn't just any ordinary party.
Beyonce threw a Soul Train themed party and of course, everyone was decked out.
Everyone who was every one was there.
Diddy, Cassie, Chance the Rapper, Swizz Beatz, bare-faced Alicia Keys, top models, Usher, etc.
Bey killed it with a sequined jumpsuit while the fellas (looking at you Diddy) brought out the wigs and psychedelic colors.

Of course the Birthday Queen killed it on the dancefloor.

Beyonce's Lemonade is now on iTunes

Don't have Tidal? No problem!
Beyonce's latest album Lemonade is now on iTunes.

Did you watch on Saturday?
I did of course, and on Sunday.
Having a full day on Saturday I really didn't enjoy the special presentation. I found it boring, but LOVED the 6 inch featuring the Weeknd, Sorry and Freedom. 

When I watched it a second time with more rest and more time, I fell in love with the album.
I loved the concept, the depth of the lyrics and how Beyonce has grown as an artist.
Prior to the 4 album I was a mediocre Bey fan. Her lyrcis were the same line over and over again and the songs were played out on the radio.
When 4 came out I heard more lyrical diversity, catchier songs and a more bad ass attitude.
Then when her self-titled album dropped in 2013....I became a STAN!

Now with Lemonade, even though it took me 2 tries, I understand the concept, I get it...she's a grown woman doing her own thing.

Do I think Jay cheated on her? I mean, this album alludes to it. Then there was elevator-gate back in 2014. Then there are the rumors over whether or not Becky is Rachel Roy. Roy is Dame Dash's ex-wife, Dame was once Jay's Roc-a-Fella partner back in the day.
At the end of the day, it's Jay and Bey and we'll never know the real story unless they tell us.

Now excuse me while I get back into formation and learn these lyrics prior to her show in May.

Beyonce and HBO Debut New Trailer for "Lemonade"

                 
                              I don't know what exactly this is, but I'm ready for it!
Since Friday, Beyonce has been hinting at her latest project Lemonade premiering on HBO on April 23rd.
Is it a film? A new album? A documentary?
From the looks of it, she's basically topping the release of Beyonce by not having it be a surprise visual album, but a full-on action film.
The project debuts the day before the Formation tour kicks-off.
This is being called a world premiere event.
I can't take this anymore.
I aged 10 years last week trying to cop some Ivy Park gear last week.....I just need some relaxation.

Beyonce Slaying Us

What. a. weekend.
My day job is in local news and being in the Bay, I was busy on Super Bowl coverage for the entire week as well as taking in the Super Bowl festivities around town.
After spending 22 hours awake, I finally got to watch Beyonce's new video and single Formation and I'm obsessed.


Then, to see her perform it live, THEN announce the Formation World Tour...I'm officially dead.
Or as the bloggers say, bald...bc my wig has been snatched.
Queen Bey keeps us on our toes and keeps us woke.

Y'all gonna learn bout dem children of Celestine & Mathew, lol.
Slay sis, slay✊🏾
And Slay niece, slay 👼🏾

Beyonce and Jay Z Go Vegan

 

wikipedia.com

Jay Z announced via his blog Life + Times that starting December 3rd he was going to adopt a vegan lifestyle for 22 days. He decided to do this a day before his 44th birthday, and we all know how much 4 means to the couple.

"Psychologists have said it takes 21 days to make or break a habit. On the 22nd day, you’ve found the way.
On December 3rd, one day before my 44th birthday I will embark on a 22 Days challenge to go completely vegan, or as I prefer to call it, plant-based!! This all began a few months back when a good friend and vegan challenged me to embrace a “plant-based breakfast” every day. It was surprisingly easier on me than I thought…
Why now? There’s something spiritual to me about it being my 44th birthday and the serendipity behind the number of days in this challenge; 22 (2+2=4) coupled with the fact that the challenge ends on Christmas day…It just feels right!
So you can call it a spiritual and physical cleanse. I will post my progress… Any professional vegans out there that have any great food spots please help out! Please ha. I don’t know what happens after Christmas. A semi-vegan, a full plant-based diet? Or just a spiritual and physical challenge? We’ll see…
Best of luck and health!
P.S. B is also joining me."

After reading this I wanted to be just like the Carters and do the same thing, but accidentally ate a porkchop for dinner....hmm...maybe start tomorrow?
