‘ROUND THE WAY: BEYONCE & JAY-Z PREGNANT W/ FIRST CHILD??

October 20th, 2010

According to the US Weekly, singer Beyonce Knowles and her husband, Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter are expecting their first child together. A source of the 29-year old mother-to-be told US Weekly that she was surprised once she found out:

“B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn’t ready to be a mother just yet,” says a source of the singer, who married rapper Jay-Z in 2008. “She really wanted to get her album done and tour the world again.”

No word on whether Beyonce will still be releasing any new songs from her upcoming album. Family and friends of the couple have been expressing their well-wishes for the parents-to-be.

    If the baby is a girl please let her look like Bey if the baby is a boy it’s okay if he favors Jayz more.

    IF and I mean a big IF this is true then congrats.
    They equally have been successful in their careers and having a child is the next step. There is nothing like having a child; and as a woman, there is nothing greater than experiencing life in your womb.

    If this is true…many congratulations to the couple!

    Don’t know how you can be shocked unless she has tried to get pregnant before and had some fertility problems.

    lET’S FACE IT A LITTLE GIRL WALKING AROUND WITH JAYZ’S FACE WOULD NOT BE AN APPEALING SIGHT. ESPECIALLY WITH A MOTHER LIKE BEYONCE. A BOY WOULD FAIR BETTER IN MY ESTIMATION.

    Mehnn i aint believe this crap until BEYONCE HERSELF comes out and says it….this is what the 20th time some magazine or new source claim B is pregnant. And if she happens to be..what a bad time…with the new album, she wouldn’t be able to promote it as well.

    Her PR people made her get pregnant. Her image and popularity has been tanking big time. She had become totally unrelatable and annoying. Hope its true, she needs something else to do besides show her crotch to the world.

    I’ve been thinking this could be true, US weekly isn’t like The National Enquirer. US Weekly have been the first to break all the big entertainment news stories this year like Sandra Bullock splitting from Jessie, Christina’s divorcing Jordan. The whole Brad, Jennifer Angelina triangle…just maybe this is true.

    But I’ma still wait for Beyonce, Jay or someone to come and say something.

    I’m sure Jay got tired of waiting and switched out her birth control pills with sugar pills, hence the reason why she was shocked … Just Joking :-)

    Congrats to them IF it is true this time around

    why you all say about time? they have been married for only 2.5 yrs.
    & yea I know they dated 4 6yrs, but marriage counselors advise against a baby in the 1st 2 yrs of marriage.

    @31 tab . Shawn Corey Carter has been a dad for 9yrs now . He has a son with Trinidadian Shenelle Scott. Now if BK is indeed pregnant this will be his first fatherhood attempt. I dont think he is being a father to Isa. Bc Carter stays in NY while his son Isa is in Trinidad. Unless they skype adn talk daily. but still, who taught Isa to urinate standing up?to ride his bike?

    @32 redcarpet: do youhave proof of this?
    she was just named (again) to forbes power list and the forbes power lady list.
    aside from her stealing song writing credits and her fashion line being grossly overpriced, her popularity hasnt tanked.

    please, they’ve been trying to impregnate beyonce since she was in destiny’s child.. i’ll wait till either or both of them release a statement of confirmation.

    @48.. if that was the case she would’ve gotten pregnant right after Alicia did.

    I think this is true and knowing beyonce she probably did it because he new album is coming out… Her and her management planned this acting all surprised my foot (you and j have been using protection all these donkey years to make sure you don’t get pregnant and now when your album is about to drop you stop) bish please…

    Plus i am sure she saw all the attention A keys was getting with her pregnancy and she wanted some too

    Bet you there will be a song on the album about the kid and motherhood… just like there was “single ladies” on I am…

    She got married a couple of months before the song and album dropped as a publicity stunt… just like this pregnancy is!

    But have to hand it to her… she knows her market well… all of you will eat this up..
