Beyonce is pregnant!

[Anonymous]

How incredibly pretentious. Likening herself to a great work of art, and even to the Virgin Mary? Good grief, I've seen it all now.

I also don't understand why all these celebrities that are so concerned about privacy (hello, they shut down an entire hospital wing for a birth) go to such lengths to announce a pregnancy. First she announced it onstage at an awards show and now with a full-on prima donna photoshoot? I mean does she want privacy or doesn't she? Makes no sense.

Listen, they are one of the most private couples ever. There weren't even rumors of them dating until they had already been dating for a year. They didn't publicly acknowledge dating until about 7 years later, we only knew because paparazzi just started spotting them together and it became obvious. We didn't know her and Jay were married until after it happened. She didn't confirm pregnancy rumors with Blue Ivy until she was 6 months. We didn't see any pictures of the baby until they released them just a few weeks after her birth. The point of releasing the pregnancy photos and releasing the baby pictures themselves is that they are in control of the information and when it is released. Can you imagine the paparazzi frenzy, trying to be the first to get a picture of her baby bump or to get the first pictures of her new baby. It's much better for them to do it this way, IMO. I think they are smart for it.

100% accurate. Worked with both on PR needs in the past few years. Beyonce is kind and generous and incredibly appreciative. Solange is crazy but at least in my experience, crazy in a good way. She's very particular and eccentric. Whereas Beyonce gives leeway in how you reach a final goal for her, Solange wants to control every step in the process and is a micromanager. Frequently, her mom would have to tell her to tone it down because it did rub people the wrong way but just like her sister, she is also quite appreciative of those who work for her. I just don't think she knows how to be as kind and gracious. Overall they are a great family though, but just like everyone else, one person is a little nuts.

You're in PR and this is how you treat your clients?

good to know you can be trusted

Past clients are fair game. And this is an anonymous message board. Do you know how many publicists they've both worked with on various projects? I'm probably one out of hundreds and there is no way this could ever come back to haunt me. You should probably take a xanax or call your therapist as you sound unhinged. Your response is entirely unwarranted.

not unhinged

PR is about trust. It's not about being caught.

just sayin'

So unethical.

PR person here and there's nothing unethical about it. You guys will look for any excuse to hate on what people post.

I didn't like the pictures

Beyonce absolutely can sing

Good for them, hopefully they will have healthy babies

I think people who say Beyonce is dumb don't get how strong a hand she has in her career and image. And ignore how much money she has made and how she keeps changing it up to stay relevant. She may not be formally educated but she is not dumb. There are people here with multiple degrees who can't even figure out what pair of shoes to buy to go with a dress

I admittedly haven't listened to a whole album of hers including Lemonade in about 10 years

Watch the SNL skit with Keenan and Tracey Morgan as her twins in utero. Hilarious!

100% agree with you, Beyonce is rather closed when it comes to her private life, she just wanted to be the first to announce her pregnancy, not paparazzi. She's always being surrounded with tonns of rumors ( including one about her plastic surgery https://elitecelebsmag.com/beyonce-plastic-surgery/ ), but she's always polite, always moderate and tolerant.
