JAY-Z TALKS "SPOILED" BABY BLUE IVY

He’s been pretty quiet about his daughter Blue Ivy so far, but Jay-Z finally opened up about fatherhood during his interview on “Oprah’s Master Class: Special Addition.”

The “Empire State of Mind” rapper told Winfrey he hopes to help his little girl stay grounded by using “things I learned from my mom and things I’ve learned from raising my nephews.”

Jay also laughed at the irony of teaching such a privileged child humility. “Then at the end of the day, I just know I’ll probably have the worst, spoiled little kid ever.”

He added, “Everyone imagines they’ll be a great dad — until their [kids are] teenagers saying, ‘Get away from me, Dad. You’re embarrassing me!’”

BEYONCE SAYS BREAST FEEDING HELPED HER LOSE BABY WEIGHT

Beyonce said she gained 50 pounds during her pregnancy and lost it quickly by breast feeding

She tells People Magazine,

    'I lost most of my weight from breast-feeding and I encourage women to do it; it's just so good for the baby and good for yourself.

    'I counted calories. I worked out maybe three to four times a week. I did a lot walking in the beginning and now I'm running. But I had to work my way up. I couldn't just go right from being pregnant to running.'

BEYONCE FIRES BACK AT FAKE PREGNANCY RUMORS

After giving birth to her beautiful daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, three months ago, Beyonce Knowles is finally speaking about the rumors that she faked her pregnancy with husband Jay-Z.

In an interview with People magazine for their 2012 World's Most Beautiful Woman special issue, the 30 year-old songstress said that the surrogacy rumors were "crazy," explaining, "That was crazy. It wasn’t hurtful, it was just crazy, [I thought] ‘Where did they come up with this?’”

Rumors started swirling that the "Bootylicious" singer was wearing a prosthetic baby bump back in October when she made an appearance on Australia's "Sunday Night HD." When Knowles sat down it appeared her bump deflated, but the actress fired back, saying, "It was a fabric that folded—does fabric not fold? Oh my gosh, so stupid."

Beyonce's sister, Solange Knowles, also shot back at the nay-sayers, tweeting earlier, "It has really gotten out of hand. I've been doing my best at keeping my mouth shut....but the ignorance is really sad and upsetting."

The singer/songwriter's family is definitely upset about the tabloid chatter, especially her mother, Tina Knowles, who vented, "I thought it was very unfair and very cruel that someone would think that someone would be that diabolical to keep up a charade like that for nine months. As a mother it was painful for me to hear the crazy rumors. And I even had people ask me, which was so ridiculous."

Though the situation has been tough on the Grammy Award-winning artist, she says she has gotten through all of the "stupid rumors" by focusing on all of the "love and well wishes" from her amazing fans.

Rumors aside, Beyonce called motherhood "amazing," gushing, "I feel more beautiful than I've ever felt because I've given birth, I have never felt so connected, never felt like I had such a purpose on this earth."

BEYONCE, JAY-Z AND BABY BLUE IVY HIT THE TOWN

 

Superstar couple Beyoncé and Jay-Z were eyed carrying their little Blue Ivy wrapped up against the icy weather in the West Village today, just weeks after they posted lovable photos of the newborn online. This was the first time the superstar and her husband have been seen together in public with their little bundle of joy heading into Sant Ambroeus restaurant for some lunch today.

Blue Ivy came to the world last month at Lenox Hill Hospital but had been kept away from the public until Feb. 10, when the couple posted poignant photos of the newborn online, along with a heartfelt note.

Little Blue Ivy surely hasn't caught up either singer. It was reported that Beyoncé is working on two projects to be released later this year, while Jay-Z said he planned to work in December this year on a solo project and also on a new album with Kanye West.

When Beyoncé announced last Aug. 28 during the MTV Video Music Awards that she was expecting it triggered 8,868 tweets per second, setting a Twitter record.
