As we learned in Beyonce?s utterly stupid New York Times profile earlier this week, Beyonce ?has not answered any direct questions for more than a year.? Which means that Beyonce?s ?people? are left to pick up the slack in explaining how awesome she is and how she?s the second coming (Beysus!) and all of that. Hilariously, Jay-Z?s stylist June Ambrose sort of threw some minor shade at Bey for her Met Gala look in an interview a few days ago. Ambrose told Page Six: ?I love that some people got it and some people didn?t?It was a lot of that sheer, Bob Mackie-inspired pieces, which is not Chinese. You know, they?re musicians. Do they follow rules? Never.? You in danger girl! How dare you say that Beyonce didn?t follow the theme! So of course Beyonce?s hair stylist had to come out and explain how Beyonce?s look was completely fabulous and haters to the left. Except that The Glamming of Beyonce went down in an elevator?!
‘Course sometimes s–t goes down when there’s a billion dollars in the elevator! When Beyonce hit the red carpet at the 2015 Met Gala hours after most of the other stars posed for the cameras, she flawlessly worked her racy Givenchy gown and her high ponytail.
But what most don’t know is that the “Flawless” singer’s effortless look was finalized in the elevator. No, not that elevator, but in the elevator of her apartment building on the way to the swanky event’s carpet. Beyonce’s longtime hairstylist Neal Farinah (of the Neal Farinah Salon in Brooklyn?s Fort Greene neighborhood on Fulton Street) was on hand for the quick fix, and exclusively told Us Weekly?s Gwen Flamberg about the last-minute switch up.
“For the Met Ball we did that high ponytail but that wasn’t supposed to be the style,” Farinah revealed. “We did that in the elevator as she was on the way out.”
Originally Bey’s long locks were entirely wrapped up in “an asian-inspired chignon,” but Farinah said the Grammy winner felt the look might be too “costumey,” and made a spur-of-the-moment decision.
“Then we were in the elevator on the way down, and she looks at me and says ‘Neal, I want to change my hair, will you change my hair?’ And I said, ‘Honey, there could be cameras in the elevator,’” Farinah quipped, referencing last year’s infamous “Elevatorgate” in which her sister Solange Knowles got into a physical altercation with her husband Jay Z. “She says, ‘You have 5 minutes.’ And I said, ‘Girl, what do you want me to do with the hair?’ And she wanted a high ponytail. With Beyonce, she looks at herself and she says, ‘This isn’t right, let’s change it.’”
After years of collaborating with Queen Bey for events, music videos, and concerts, Farinah and the chart-topper have formed a close friendship. The longtime stylist greatly admires Beyonce for her comprehensive creative vision.
“Just like everything else we do we come up with a concept and then we present it to Beyonce,” he explained. “She is a powerhouse and she knows what she wants. I have to pay her a compliment. Beyonce takes us all out of our comfort zone, and she pushes us to be the most artistic we can be with her.”

Girl, you?re going to get fired if you keep making elevator jokes. Elevator jokes will not be tolerated!!
As for her hair drama?on one side, I think a chignon would have been bad with Bey?s dress. On the other side, the high rooster tail was pretty bad too AND it made her look like the Zamunda chick from Coming to America. Basically, when Beyonce wasn?t happy with her look, she should have just stopped everything (including the elevator!!!) and started over. Let?s be honest: Bey?s look-at-ME Givenchy was pretty bad. As was her look-at-MEEEE entrance on the Met Gala carpet more than two hours late.
Oh, and Us Weekly also claims that Beyonce was SOOOO late for the gala because she was online, looking at what everyone else was wearing, and she changed into the Givenchy at the last minute. Bey’s rep deigned to deny that part of the story though.

I barely do posts on Beyonce anymore these days now that she’s too busy with trivial things like “parenting” and “making new records” and not more important stuff like going to the beach 5 days a week or doing bikini yoga in the park. But luckily, she showed up to the MET Ball last night […]

They?re always up for a fancy fete and last night (May 4) Beyonc Knowles and Jay Z attended the 2015 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
All decked out in designer duds, the ?Crazy in Love? songstress rubbed shoulders with fellow famous folks like Lupita Nyong?o, Zoe Saldana, Taylor Swift and Olivia Munn while her handsome hubby charmed the crowd in his dapper tuxedo.
The 2015 Met Gala?s theme is ?China: Through the Looking Glass,? and once again Anna Wintour has outdone herself. Each year Anna Wintour helps make sure the event is a massive success, given that the money raised goes to fund the Costume Institute?s annual budget.

Beyonce and Jay-Z decided to walk the carpet of last night?s Met Gala like last year?s post-Met beatdown never happened. Note that they did walk the carpet WITH Solange (Solange arrived separately and did not pose at all with Jay and Bey). I guess that just goes to show you? Beyonce and Jay are fine. One year later, they worked through whatever it was and they?re still strong. And I guess props to them for doing the Met Gala carpet like it was no biggie.
Beyonce was basically naked in this Givenchy gown. If you can tell me how this is Chinese-inspired, I would love for you to try. I think Bey just wanted to look naked and blonde. CB said she looked like Britney Spears in the ?Toxic? music video. Truth. I would also say that there?s a heavy dose of Madonna in there, especially with the rooster-tail blonde pony. Bey and Jay were also some of the last people to arrive ? wanting a big entrance, I guess, and hoping to soak up the last of the red carpet. As for my general thoughts on Bey?s dress? I don?t even think we should call this a dress. It?s just bejeweled netting. Also: this is like the thinnest Beyonce has ever been, right? Has she been on a crazy diet for six months to wear this dress?
Solange Knowles wore Giles Deacon. This isn?t Chinese-themed either! And it?s a disaster. I know a lot of you enjoy Solange?s offbeat style, but this doesn?t work. At all.

Always concerned for the well-being of others, Beyonc Knowles took to her Instagram account to share her thoughts on the craziness that?s been going on in Baltimore, Maryland this week.
The ?Bootylicious? songstress wrote, ?People are hurting. Join us in supporting the NAACP to help in the cleanup efforts and to provide housing, food and supplies to those affected by the unrest in Baltimore.?
In addition to her words, Beyonce posted a photograph of a man draped in a black and white flag with the names of victims of police violence, including Freddie Gray, written on it. Stay linked to the GossipCenter more celebrity reactions to the Baltimore riots.

Never one to miss out on fashionable footwear, Beyonc Knowles showed up at the Beverly Hills grand opening shindig for Giuseppe Zanotti on Tuesday night (April 14).
The ?Crazy in Love? singer was all smiles in her plunging white ensemble as she meandered around the boutique and posed for a few snapshots.
Meanwhile, Beyonce just scored a new stepsister in Bianca Lawson given that her mother Tina Knowles married Richard Lawson over the weekend. Bianca has appeared on ?2 Broke Girls,? ?Pretty Little Liars,? ?The Vampire Diaries? and ?Teen Wolf.?

She certainly knows how to put on a killer show, but rather than flashy props and skimpy outfits, Beyonc Knowles let her priceless pipes do the talking last night (February 8) at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.
The ?Crazy in Love? singer brought out a group of handsome backup singers to join her in cranking out a moving rendition of ?Take My Hand, Precious Lord,? leaving many audience members with tears in their eyes.
Knowles explained, "I wanted to find real men that have lived, have struggled, cried and have a light and a spirit about them. I felt like this is be an opportunity to show the strength and vulnerability in black men. My grandparents marched with Dr. King, and my father was part of the first generation of black men that attended an all-white school. My father has grown up with a lot of trauma from those experiences. I feel like now I can sing for his pain, I can sing for my grandparents' pain. I can sing for some of the families that have lost their sons."

Beyonce Knowles? Grammys red carpet dress was such a snooze. She wore this black Proenza Schouler which looked like a million other dresses, and it even looked like gowns Beyonce has worn before on other red carpets. I sort of give Beyonce some credit though: she?s won a bajillion Grammys (and she won three more last night, making her total Grammy haul 20), and it really felt like she was there as an already established icon, like she doesn?t have to try-hard and attention-grab and all of that (coughMadonna). When she won one of her Grammys last night, she did thank the most important people in the universe: ?I’d like to say thank you to my Beyhive. Thank you guys for riding so hard.” They do ride hard.
Beyonce was saved for the next-to-last performance of the evening, singing ?Take My Hand, Precious Lord.? It?s an old Civil Rights Movement song and Bey did it well. But I think she got schedule-blocked by producers who decided to put on f?king AC/DC on the opening. How much better would it have been if THIS had been the opening?

She never disappoints her loyal fans, and earlier tonight (February 8) Beyonc Knowles was dressed to impress as she meandered around the Staples Center during the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.

Jay-Z is to New York like? Oprah is to Chicago. You know? Some people are synonymous with their cities. Jay could travel the world, he could live for years in the middle of nowhere and he would still be a New Yorker, he would still rap about Brooklyn and New York would still be in his blood. I always thought he was probably pretty happy calling Manhattan his homebase, but as it turns out, Jay-Z and Beyonce have already relocated to the West Coast. For months now, TMZ has been tracking Bey and Jay?s attempts to purchase major real estate in LA, and now TMZ says that they?re already living out of a hotel in LA and have been for a month or so. And they already enrolled Blue Ivy in pre-school!
Beyonce and Jay Z are moving to L.A. and they’ve already enrolled Blue Ivy in school … TMZ has learned. We’ve learned … Beyonce and Jay Z are currently living in a hotel in Beverly Hills and actively looking for an estate to buy on the westside of L.A., which includes Beverly Hills, Holmby Hills and Bel-Air. We’re told they have already discreetly looked at a number of homes, but so far none fit the bill.
We’ve also learned the famous couple enrolled their 3-year-old into a toddler program at an elite private school — we know which one but we’re not naming it. But we will tell you, the tuition is $15,080 a year. We’re told Blue Ivy was admitted halfway through the school year, which is unusual. The school generally only accepts students at the beginning of the school year.
As for why they’re moving, sources connected with the couple tell us they want “a change in lifestyle.” You’ll re recall, Bey and Jay spent the summer in a $200K a month rental near Bev Hills. We do not know but assume they will keep their New York digs.
[From TMZ]
This is just? weird. Right? I mean, Beyonce and Jay-Z are the Queen and King of New York. Blue Ivy is a New York baby! Is this all part of the sketchiness that went down between Bey and Jay last year? Is this part of the deal? Like, we?ll stay together and try for another baby but only if we move to a city so I don?t have to keep running into all of your New York side-pieces?
According to Us Weekly, it wasn?t about the side-pieces though. Their sources say Gwyneth Paltrow ?heavily influenced? the move. A source says:
?Beyonce and Jay Z are making L.A. their permanent home based a lot on the advice of their friends. The friend that really influenced them to move was Gwyneth Paltrow. Gwyneth was telling Jay and Bey about the quality of life for her kids in L.A. and really swayed Beyonce and Jay to make the move. It?s all for Blue Ivy.?
[From Us Weekly]
The source also says that Bey and Jay will keep their New York property (properties, I believe) but LA will become their homebase. I can sort of understand moving to LA for a change of pace, and being able to move around with more freedom. What I don?t understand is moving to LA because Goop suggested it. I know Gwyneth likes to name-drop her friendship with Beyonce, but I really doubt that they?re close enough for Beyonce to uproot her family to be closer to Goop, you know?
