On Friday, INF Daily sent us the link to their exclusive photos of Beyonce still pregnant (or still ?wearing the pillow?), which were taken Thursday night. It was a photo op designed to show us that Beyonce is still preggo, and to keep us on our guard that the birth could go down at any moment. Well, it did. It happened last night, and the news was first reported by E! News. It was a girl! They named her? Blue Ivy Carter. Blue Carter. Baby Blue.
We were so ready for this belly, and now we’re so psyched to meet this baby!
Beyonc and Jay-Z welcomed a daughter Saturday night in New York, the little one’s arrival coming via scheduled C-section, mutliple sources confirm to E! News
And the pop ‘n’ hip-hop princess’ name? Drumroll, please…
Blue Ivy Carter! (At least that’s what Jay-Z is telling pals at this point?the couple’s reps have not immediately responded to calls seeking comment.)
Friend and music mogul Russell Simmons was among the first to celebrate the arrival, tweeting the new parents: “congrats to my good friends Beyonce and Jay-Z.”
Rihanna gave baby Blue a warm welcome, tweeting: “Welcome to the world princess Carter! Love Aunty Rih.”
Hey, we’re happy to find out this much, considering Blue’s parents didn’t even confirm to the world that they were married until…Wait? Did they ever really confirm it? (Public records ultimately told the tale.)
Anyway, the “Crazy in Love” duo tied the knot in April 2008 after roughly six years of dating. Considering they waited another three years to have a baby, you can tell this is one couple that thinks things through!
Beyonc memorably revealed that she was pregnant onstage at the MTV Video Music Awards in August.
And her hubby certainly seems to be in the right head space, telling E! News in November that he hoped to be the kind of father whose children could talk to him about anything.
“Your child could come to you and have any type of conversation. I always hope for that kind of open relationship,” he said.
Just imagine the rap sessions father and daughter will be having a few years from now!

I was kind of meh on this report?s accuracy, but People Magazine is reporting it too, so I think the ?scheduled C-section? actually did go down last night. People also reports that Beyonce gave birth at Lenox Hill, and she had checked into the NYC hospital on Friday. Just this past week, the rumors were surrounding Bey giving birth at St. Luke?s, so I don?t know what to make of the hospital switch-up. I wonder if Beyonce was wearing her special birthin? weave? I wonder if the surrogate is happy and healthy too?

I really am surprised that Beyonce hasn?t given birth (?given birth?) this week. Of course, the day isn?t over, and she could totally pull a Perry-Brand and announce the miraculous birth late today, a Friday afternoon or evening. Is that Bey?s style though? No, she wants to dominate the news, and announcing something late on a Friday just doesn?t feel domination-worthy. I also have a theory that we haven?t heard anything about Bey this week because there?s only so much magic that can be done with pillows, you know? If Beyonce is seen, she needs to look ready to pop at any moment. And that ain?t happening.
In Touch has a great/hilarious/ridiculous story about Beyonce?s other preparations for the birth. She and Jay have apparently booked a special ?luxury birthing suite? which includes a private kitchen. Which I think it gross. Why are you thinking about food when you?re supposed to be birthin? a baby? Placenta and paella don?t mix. But the best part of the story is totally the bit about the birthin? weave.
Leave it to Beyonce to put the glamour in giving birth. In preparation for the arrival of her first child, Beyonce and Jay-Z have booked a private luxury birthing suite at New York?s St. Luke?s-Roosevelt Hospital Center, complete with a flat-screen TV and a private kitchen where gourmet meals can be prepared for the picky pair.
According to an insider, Beyonce meticulously planned out every detail just as she would one of her onstage spectaculars – even having a hairpiece designed just for the delivery!
?She wanted to look spectacular for her biggest performance ever,? the insider says.

Is it wrong that I totally believe that? Yes, I believe that Beyonce had a special weave made just for the birth of her child. She will wear this special weave when she picks the baby up from the surrogate, I guess. Anyway, I have my fingers crossed that Bey keeps her legs crossed (and the surrogate does the same) until Monday. Gift us with a baby during regular business hours, Oh Great and Powerful Beysus!

Reports last week said staff at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital were gearing up for a big VIP who booked half the floor of the hospital?sluxury Labor and Delivery Suite. The assumption was it was Beyonce but there was always some doubt because she didn’t make a big spectacle about it like turning her hospital bed towards an open window so the whole world could see the baby come out of her.
Looks like our doubts were not unfounded because NYDN says Beyonce and Jay-Z had a quiet New Year’s Eve dinner at Buttermilk Channel in Brooklyn and Beyonce still had her enhanced baby bump. Solange, feeling a little left out, tweeted a confirmation, “Shout out to my sister for being THE cutest pregnant woman ever!” If she thinks that, then, clearly, Solange has been locked in the basement a little too long.

Last week, I think most media outlets were on high alert that Beyonce would be ?giving birth? at any moment. The idea was spurred by actual reporting at first – legit outlets claimed that Beyonce had checked into a NYC hospital, and then they took it back and claimed that one hospital?s maternity ward was on lockdown, preparing for Throne Watch or whatever. And then later last week, things got silly. Twitter went crazy, claiming that Bey and Jay had given birth to a baby girl and that they had named her Tiana May Carter. First, that didn?t happen. Second, Tiana May? You know the baby name is probably going to be awful, but I don?t see anything of the ?Tiana May? variety. Please! The name is going to be, like, Princess Nairobi Dj Vu Knowles-Carter, something like that. Something regal for the first couple of hip-hop.
Anyway, Beyonce hasn?t given birth. Yet. (Or ever.) I?m starting to believe Lainey?s theory that everything will go down on the 4th, because Bey and Jay are so obsessed with ?4? as their lucky number. Which means that media outlets will probably be on lockdown on Wednesday – and trust me, when Beyonce ?gives birth,? People Magazine will break the story, not Twitter. In the mean time, Page Six had this little story about how Bey and Jay spent New Year?s:
A heavily pregnant and beautiful Beyonc celebrated New Year?s Eve over an intimate dinner with Jay-Z in Brooklyn. Dashing Web rumors that she gave birth last week, a still expecting Beyonce ? in very high heels ? ate with Jay at Buttermilk Channel in Carroll Gardens. Beyonc dined on fried chicken and Jay ordered oysters, but there was no Champagne for the expecting star. The happy couple left before midnight, perhaps to join the party at her sister Solange Knowles? house.

Media Takeout claims that although Jay and Bey were partying on New Year?s Eve at Solange?s house, Bey?s family was pissed off that Jay had flown to Kentucky earlier on Saturday to scout for the New Jersey Nets (Jay is partial owner). I would say that Jay shouldn?t have abandoned Beyonce when she?s so far along, but I suspect that Jay knows what?s up and he ?knows? that Beyonce won?t be ?giving birth? until later this week, right?

Last we heard from Beyonce, she was nine months pregnant and she had flown to Vancouver, where she was partying her pillow off with her husband. While in Vancouver, there were a few photos of Bey, and she totally looked more ?authentically? pregnant than ever before – go here to Dlisted to see one of the latest Bey photos. Her face totally looks heavier, and for a brief moment, I was like, ?Oh, okay. Maybe all of the conspiracy theories were totally wrong. Maybe Bey has just had a really crazy pregnancy where her bump collapses and goes up and down constantly BUT she really is preggo.? Of course, there?s a blind item that covers Bey?s weight gain too:
It?s coming down to the wire, folks! Just a few weeks to go. There?s one problem, though. She was looking too thin to be convincing. Thankfully, she found a solution that doesn?t include eating a single bowl of ice cream. It?s called Prednisone. Taking excessive amounts of corticosteroids over time can result in some serious effects, including hypertension and cataracts. Another side effect is gaining weight, especially in the face and neck and abdomen. She knew this because it happened to her before. Last time it was accidental and was upsetting for her. Now, though, it?s purposeful, and is a solution to her problem.
She started taking Prednisone a couple of months ago, so she should be plumping up pretty soon. Fat face and neck coming right up! She not worried, though, because she?s been told that the weight will drop quickly once she tapers down below 10 mg a day. Followed, of course, by claims of how hard she worked to take off the weight.
[From Blind Gossip]
Yes, it?s just a blind item. No, I can?t verify its accuracy or even WHO is having the ?roidy fake-pregnancy. But? but? but?
Anyway, Page Six has this interesting little blind item for all of the conspiracy theorists out there:
While St. Luke?s Hospital was reportedly on high alert last night, piquing suspicion that Beyonc might give birth there, the pregnant singer apparently stopped by one more party before she went into labor.
On Friday, she and husband Jay-Z were spotted at SoHo hot spot W.i.P. for a bash celebrating youth arts program Creation Nation and its Creators Club, which will meet weekly in the space. Beyonc ? who reports say is nine months pregnant ? and Jay-Z were spotted sitting tight in a VIP booth and fielding greetings from friends. Beyonc was overheard saying that her pregnancy was ?the best Christmas present possible.?
Our witnesses report that the rapper ?was very attentive to his wife, at one point getting up to get her some water.?
[From Page Six]
Of course I have moments of doubt. Of course I stop every now and then and say, ?What if she?s really pregnant? What if this isn?t some huge conspiracy? What if she really has the energy to party and fly to Vancouver in the last days of her pregnancy? What if she really can balance on sky-high heels even in the third trimester?? I don?t have anything to add to that, really. Your guess is as good as mine. I think there?s enough evidence and ?common sense? wisdom to make a case for the pillow baby theory, or for the ?real pregnancy? theory.

Rumors are flying that security at the New York’s St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital is on high alert and thatBeyonce is the celebrity VIP that booked half the floor of the hospital’sluxury Labor and Delivery Suite. That would be the exact suite Alicia Keys used to deliver her baby.
No confirmation on whether or not the celebrity VIP is actually Beyonce but you’d think it wouldn’t be considering how she isn’t making a big deal about it. I would have expected her to fling open her hospital room windows and wave to the people like Evita while the doctor shoves a speculum in her.

Have you seen some of the latest blind items having to do with Beyonce and her Deflating Bump of Conspiracies? Go here to Dlisted to read some of them – I mean, they are ?allegedly? about Beyonce, but? they certainly fit, right? Still, Beyonce is on track to give birth? soon. Like, within the next month, apparently, considering she claims she was six months pregnant on September 23rd. Meaning she?s past the eight-month mark right now. Which means that surrogate is probably ready to bust. One of the blind items claims that Beyonce is making all kinds of deals behind the scenes to profit from her pillowy pregnancy, including a Jessica Simpson-style ?How I Lost the Baby Weight? magazine spread shortly after ?giving birth?. Allegedly, Bey is still going to be selling this pillow until we?re all sick of it. So? here?s a preview. Us Weekly has a story about how Bey has gone on a ?partially vegan? diet (???) and Jay-Z has joined her in pillow solidarity or something.
Jay-Z is eating like a pregnant woman! The 42-year-old dad-to-be is supporting Beyonce by dieting with her. A source tells the new Us Weekly — on stands Friday — that the duo are maintaining a “partially vegan diet.” (Think stir-fried vegetables and tofu, made to order by a private chef.)
“Jay’s trying to be disciplined, and he needs the energy to support her,” a source adds.
Beyonce, 30, isn’t going to let herself go just because she’s expecting! “I’ve been really conscious [about food],” she told 20/20. “I’ve been trying my best not to lose control!”
Meanwhile, Beyonce has been resisting temptation, including favorites like fried chicken and doughnuts.
Jay and Bey’s commitment to healthy living seems to be paying off. A source tells Us that Monday night the duo were “dancing up a storm” at Hollywood’s Spare Room club.
“They were loved up and sweet together [and] partied until 4 a.m.!”
The next night, Beyonce and Jay-Z partied once again! This time, the couple hung out with Serena Williams, Kanye West and friends at Watch The Throne’s after party.
[From Us Weekly]
WTF is a ?partially vegan? diet? Is that ?eating your vegetables as part of a balanced diet that includes ham and chicken and steak?? So we?re not just supposed to buy the pillowy pregnancy, we?re also supposed to buy that Bey is maintaining a partially vegan diet, and that Jay-Z is dieting with her? Here?s an honest to God question: Is Beyonce just making this up as she goes along? Did she have an actual plan to fool people, and is this the plan? Because if this is the plan, Bey can afford to be getting much better advice.

Stepping out for a little mother/daughter pampering, Beyonce Knowles was spotted out with Tina for a mani/pedi treatment in New York City on Wednesday night (December 7).
The expecting singer braved the wet Big Apple weather as she and her mom stopped into Sakura Nails before emerging with bright blue nail polish to match her Christian Louboutin heels, all the while giving her growing baby bump a gentle rub en route to her nearby ride.
The outing comes as Beyonce has been dealt an undesirable ruling by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Charles Ramos - who just approved a lawsuit against her leveling charges of breach of contract.
While the "Dance For You" singer was hoping to have the case tossed, the judge decided that video game maker Gate Five LLC is allowed to proceed with their $100 million lawsuit - which stems from the claim that Beyonc ?double crossed? them by abandoning its project to make a dance game titled "Starpower: Beyonce."
The company alleges ?bad faith breach of contract so callous that, on what appeared to be a whim, she destroyed Gate Five?s business and drove 70 people into unemployment, the week before Christmas [2010].?
Meanwhile, Knowles' lawyers counter that their client was in the right due to the fact that Gate Five didn't hold up to the stipulation of obtaining financing for the project by the mid-November 2010 deadline.

The previous Jessica Simpson post didn’t quite highlight the extent of her pregnancy. Here she is walking around New York again pregnant as can be. If Beyonce saw this, she’d be so jealous. “Why can’t you make my bump look like this and why does my bump have to fold in on itself?!,” she’d yell at her fake baby bump designer.

In more baby news, Beyonce’s baby is due in December, not in February as previously believed so this fake pregnancy is moving along faster than expected. When Beyonce pointed at her baby bump and said, “Hey, everyone, look at me,” at the Video Music Awards, people assumed she was three months pregnant.
Not true. Newly unearthed behind-the-scenes footage from her “Countdown” music video shoot reveals she’s much further along. Apparently they were off by a couple of months which explains the dramatic baby bump. Still, no one is sure why her bellyfolded in on itselfthough.The clip shows Beyonce holding up the New York Daily News which featured herself pregnant on the cover.
Mocking the caption, Bey rubs her belly and says, “Hello, it’s Sept. 23. Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby! Oh baby! This was on the cover of the Daily News. Right now I’m actually shooting the video for ‘Countdown’ and I’m six months pregnant, pretending that my stomach is flat in body suits. But thank god you can’t really tell from the front, but when I turn to the side … oh baby! Oh baby!” Boom Box
Wait. She was holding the paper up against a blank backdrop. Did she get captured by terrorists or something? The only thing this video is missing is two masked men holding machetes behind her. I suspect this looks exactly like all the videos Jay-Z forces her to make to tell her parents she’s alright.
