Beyonce has not given birth to “Tiana May Carter” yet, but it could happen soon

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 Déjà 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 Beyoncé 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. Beyoncé 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.

[From Page Six]

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?

    I saw her perform on one new years eve special and she couldn’t have looked less pregnant. I googled whether or not she’d had her baby because there’s no way a pregnant woman could be so thin in the stomach. But maybe it was prerecorded, I don’t know

    • Bite me says:

      That performance was prerecorded

      • Iggles says:

        That’s so odd! When was it recorded?

        I saw the same performance and we were all confused saying, “Where’s the pillow baby?”

        She could not have been the slightest bit pregnant – her tummy was completely flat! If she’s 9 months along then that performance had to be taped AT LEAST 6 months ago! Why would they air something that old? It’s confusing…

      • JessSaysNo says:

        I thought that was SO STRANGE and to me, it proved the pregnancy was fake. I think the performance was recorded days ago without pillow baby and the reason it was on the NYE show was so that Beyonce could let everyone know she was going to “give birth”. Attention.

        If she was actually pregnant, she would not have agreed to perform on TV on NYE because she would know she was due way too close– there would have been no need to air pre-recorded performance because if she was pregnant, she wouldn’t think of agreeing to perform so close to her due date. This was just a way for her to get attention and to let people know that she was “about to give birth”.

        Also the baby will TOTALLY not be named “Tiana”.

    • Q says:

      I’ve been scouring photos. Her face hasn’t changed really. Nothing is different except her strangely shaped belly. Rarely see her except in “stages” of her faux pregnancy. I’ve had 2 boys and 2 girls. I can tell you that my look changed in the last trimester with each one. Where are her swollen feet? I’m sorry to say that I think she is lying. More likely there’s a surrogate involved. Too bad she thought her lies would fool us stupid people. Lol. Shame on her. Sheesh

  2. atlantapug says:

    Can’t wait for the second coming of the messiah (Shiloh Jolie-Pitt was the first coming)
    Princess Fake-Baby BeyonJay Knowles-Carter will come into the world in a gush of Cristal.

  3. SolitaryAngel says:

    There are blinds that say she’s taking high doses of prednisone in order to bloat up. If this is true, after she “gives birth” and discontinues the drug her weight will drop fairly quickly. Bet she’s still drinking like always, just behind closed doors.

    Oh, and Princess Nairobi Deja Vu?! Snorted coffee out my nose–Kaiser, you hilarious bitch!! Best name of 2012, easily. 😀

    • Tracy says:

      Actually…. it takes about a year to get rid of prednisone weight, so if she is doing this she is in for a surprise.

  4. macey says:

    wearing high heels just days before you’re due…I think not.

    she needs to give up this charade already.
    Her “pillow” looks odd even in that 2nd pic.

  5. NM9005 says:

    Two days people, if she’s going for another 4 then 1/4

  6. miriam says:

    Lol, everytime I see the “baby” referred to as the pillow I am reminded of one of those cabbage patch babies.

    I wonder if Beyonce will claim to have a C-section or a natural “birth”?

  7. lisa says:

    Do you think it bothers her that there really is not much media frenzy around the birth of the child. I mean not like we have seen with some other celebrities. I think Mirah learned this too.

    Other than the “fake pregnancy” thing. It has not been the big news story.

    or maybe I haven’t been paying the much attention.

    • gloaming says:

      Yeah I thought that too, there seems to be an indifferent feeling towards her. But maybe that’s deliberate from her camp so as to keep the press away when she “gives birth.”

  8. Jana says:

    i don’t mean to be mean, but I hope their little girl isn’t the spitting image of him.

    • mia says:

      No worries. This child, as with most of the rich and famous mugs, will be altered to mommy and daddy’s liking. Look at early pics of Halle Berry’s high school nose, the Lardashians, etc. Ugly can turn to into beautiful for the right amount of money. It is sad that, for the most part, these people can’t be satisfied with what God gave them.

    • Alix says:

      Not mean at all. Let’s face it, his genes aren’t gonna make for a pretty child.

      Now, what’s all this about 4 being their lucky number? Hadn’t heard that before.

      • jc126 says:

        Alix – her birthday is September 4th, Jay Z’s is December 4th. They probably think it’s cute. I’ll admit, I had a boyfriend whose birthday fell on the same day of the month as mine and we did take notice of it and consider it lucky. (I should’ve married him, it’s the great regret of my life.)

  9. quinnie88 says:

    Can’t wait to see her pillow baby. … i wonder what she’s having? …..an orthopedic or extra soft. Im sorry but the jig is up already. Sheeesh.

    • Alix says:

      Maybe they should name the baby Serta.

    • miss_bhaven says:

      OMG ROTFL so hard that my sombrero fell off and then I dropped my taco…you own me a taco. 😉

    • nicole says:

      Jay bday nov.4,beyonce sep.4, beyonce mom jan.4, they got married april 4,barack is our 44 president.she named all that when she made her dvd with her concert in roseland. What y’all don’t know is ugly ppl make beautiful babies. And I don’t think jay z is ugly at all that’s. How y’all feel but beyonce, don’t feel that way at all.ppl are so in love with beyonce and jay z but still talking bout the fact that he’s ugly.smh get it together ppl.I love beyonce & jayz casue they look beautiful together and I want a relationship like them one day.I hope she didn’t give birth yet and gives birth on jan 4 which is her moms bday.and if that is name tianna that’s cute that means she gave the baby a name close to her moms name tina.ppl are so judgementally these days.y’all need to change this is a brand new year.grown up.and beyonce didn’t perform no where for new years u might of been watching something old.cause I would of seen it.think about it….how did she perform when she and jay went out to eat

  10. Larenjen says:

    HOW CAN SHE GIVE BIRTH SE IS NOT PREGNANT BUT HER SURROGAT HAD A FALSE ALARM

  11. Alix says:

    Hard to make up my mind about the fake-pregnancy thing. If true, how could they possibly expect to keep it quiet? Literally, dozens of people would have to be in on it. And you really think somebody’s not gonna say something eventually, or get found out? Wouldn’t it be easier to claim that Beyoncé has a “condition” (like, say, vanity) that prevents her from carrying to term? That way they could openly use a surrogate, there are no conspiracy theories or the chance of getting found out in a real whopper of a lie.

  12. lisa says:

    I don’t know about the fake pillow baby. I mean can you imagine if that gossip was true. This would be a HUGE scandal. There are loads of celebs that announce using a surrogate. Nicole, SJP, Robert DeNiro, Angela Bassett and many others.

    I mean she could have said she had difficulties getting pregnant or whatever, but if this is a hoax then she would loose a lot of respect. I just don’t get the motivation for doing this fake thing at all.

    • kristiner says:

      Yeah, but Beyonce is young. That’s the difference between her and those celebs.

      SJP had a son in her mid 30s then it was years before he had others. Her and Matthew had been married a long time before she gave birth so it was obvious they had some trouble. Robert DeNiro and his wife waited 16 years to have other children. She gave birth to his child back in like 1997 so by now, she’s not of age to concieve or that they just didn’t want her to risk it at her late 40s-early 50s age.

      We all know Nicole Kidman had fertility issues so her getting pregnant and carrying to term was a miracle and probably the only time she got so on baby #2 they just wanted it easy and went with a surrogate.

      Angela Bassett waited until she was almost 50 to have kids. They struggled a lot on conceiving naturally so surrogate carrying their biological child was the way to go.

      All these couples have the same thing in common: over 40.

      Kelsey Grammer’s wife Camille had a surrogate but she’s said she has IBS and that it stopped her from carrying them herself. Beyonce would never admit to a disease or disorder less she look human and flawed. She’d rather be known for her “talent” then be a spokesperson for something human like awareness for a disorder.

      Beyonce is a just turned 30. Maybe she can’t conceive and since she insists on being perfect, she finds it embarrassing in her fertility prime years she couldn’t get pregnant so she had to go surrogate. Or she could just not want her body ruined. OR that they wanted a specific sex child.

      I wouldn’t put it past them to do sex selection and have the surrogate go through all that painful testing and stuff to get the perfect baby they want. Sex selection, genetic perfection, getting out all the abnormalities. Maybe they did something to ensure the kid got all her pretty genes because Jay-Z’s features are TOO strong not to show up. Look at Christie Brinkley and Billy Joel = Alexa Ray Joel? Pretty woman + fug looking guy = a not so cute daughter. I MEAN she said she wanted a kid by 30 and on the DOT she got one. That’s a little suspicious. No one has timing like that.

      • Alix says:

        Never understood how IBS would keep a woman from carrying a child.

      • Ycnan says:

        I timed all 3 of my kids just the way and month I wanted. Some people are just lucky when it comes to fertility. I thank my lucky stars that I was. Have lots of friend who are not so lucky. But it’s quite possible to time your kids. You just need to know some basic biology and be fertile.

  13. samira677 says:

    Kaiser: Abandoned? Isn’t that overly dramatic for being away for 4 or 5 hours? I don’t know if they released a due date but just because the a couple of tabloids/blogs say a date and everybody believes it doesn’t mean it’s actually Beyonce’s due date. I guess I’m missing something because I don’t understand why everybody is claiming that Beyonce and Jay are huge mediawhores. They publicize their projects but hardly talk about the personal life, until she became pregnant. There wasn’t a huge wedding, no photos, and they didn’t even publicly call each other husband/wife until a year or so ago. I really don’t understand why everybody says she’s not pregnant. There are some bikini photos where she’s obviously pregnant. As mentioned trying to hide this for months would be extremely difficult if not impossible to pull. Especially when Beyonce hasn’t been in hiding.

    • Ela says:

      I agree – I don’t get the hate for Beyonce anyway. And I saw the pics in her bikini and she was obviously pregnant. What am I missing?!

      • Jayna says:

        I don’t either. All these silly conspiracy theories. The girl is preggers. She’s an amazing entertainer and I love her latest album 4. Plus she is absolutely gorgeous. She is just an average actress, though.

      • miss_bhaven says:

        C’mon, I seen those bikini pics too and she was wearing a brown prosthetic baby bump…the skin did not look smooth or real. It was all rubber honey.

    • Jaye says:

      As evidenced by miss_bhaven’s post, you can’t reason with crazy.

  14. SolitaryAngel says:

    I’m even wondering now if the surrogate hasn’t already had the baby, and Bey is just waiting until the 4th to announce it….

    One odd thing I’ve noticed about her “pregnancy” photos that, to me, are very suggestive of the fakeness. She NEVER touches her belly. Think about it, all you mothers reading this—isn’t the belly hard NOT to touch? Even women who aren’t showing yet will subconsciously have a hand on the belly; I know I did it often, and every woman I know who has given birth did the same. It was a way of feeling connected to the little one.
    This is the main reason I think Bey isn’t carrying anything with a heartbeat in there. What do you ladies think?

    • quinnie88 says:

      Couldn’t agree more! I for one loved touching my tummy when i was pregnant. She’s just worried the fabric will rip and down feathers will fly out.

    • Psyren says:

      I agree. Every pregnant woman I’ve ever known has her hands on her belly constantly. Either to feel close to the baby since she can’t hold it yet or as a sort of protective gesture. I’ve never see B do that in a pic and it’s weird. This whole “pregnancy” is weird.

    • jc126 says:

      I think the touching-the-stomach thing varies widely. I’ve seen pregnant women who rarely touched their abdomen even if they were super-excited about the baby, talked to him/her all the time, etc. I think I’m more used to those who don’t constantly touch it all the time, actually, because when an actress playing pregnant touches her abdomen constantly, it looks so phony to me.

    • Cali says:

      Agreed!

  15. Coby says:

    So now that the surrogate had a false alarm, Bey is on lockdown till the baby is actually born (would be great if the baby is born and Bey is somewhere out partying still)

  16. mel says:

    Its true about JayZ being in KY for a game. There are pictures of him at the game on the net. So that’s a indication that Bey hasnt give birth cause I’m 100% sure Jay would want to be there for his first born (with Bey).

  17. dorothy says:

    Another overrated celebrity. Just have the baby already and go away.

  18. Poison Ivy says:

    Of course Jay could fly to this game and anywhere else in the whole wide world – how many people do you need to babysit an unborn pillow? Zero, nada!

  19. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    This bitch would never name her child “Tiana May” because it’s too “ghetto”. She thinks she is the definition of intelligence, elegance, and relevance since she hangs out with Goop, so she will name her child something that she thinks is synonymous with class, money, and privilege.

    As always she will fail. Look for a Mercedes, Aston, Royce or Royal (my cousins’s name so i do like that one kind of) coming to a surrogate born baby near you.

    • kristiner says:

      GOOP named her kid Apple. That’s not exactly intellegent.

      Beyonce would go for something ghetto but make it sound classy or say it’s classy.

      Like Tom and Katie. Suri does not mean Princess. They said it does so now the baby sites and books say it means princess.

      Sarah is Hebrew for Princess. That named baffled Hebrew speakers who were like ‘this doesn’t mean Princess????’

      • amurph says:

        I think Suri is supposed to be a Yiddish form of Sarah, so it still means “princess”…it’s just not Hebrew but Yiddish.

    • Miffits says:

      Class-Money-Privilege Carter-Knowles. Has a ring to it.

  20. Cathy says:

    Whoa, it’s snowing out. Where was the snow Christmas?

  21. Hanna says:

    This whole thing is really creeping me out, very fishy… And that last picture, who you tryna fool Bey? That name haha spot on, spot on 😀 Trannyextravaganza all over it.

  22. anne_000 says:

    Not Wham-O or Gumby or Tempurpedic or Sobakawa?

  23. no thanks says:

    moonbump.com is all i have to say… see for yourself

  24. kristiner says:

    I thought they wouldn’t go for an awful, ghetto name but everyone keeps saying they will and now I’m inclined to believe it. We’re so use to hearing ‘Beyonce’ and ‘Solange’ but both are extremely ghetto. No matter Beyince was her mom’s maiden name. As of the 80s to now with everyone going back to Africa and getting weird with Apples and Moxy Crimefighter and Tu Morrow.

    This kid’s name will be AWFUL. Good God.

    • Tammy says:

      What’s ghetto about Solange? It’s a traditional French name. I’m not a huge fan of the name Beyonce, but naming a kid after the mother’s maiden name is also traditional.

      Seeing as Beyonce’s full name is Beyonce Giselle Knowles, I’m betting on a French name for this baby.

  25. LA says:

    I am due on Friday and I’ve not been able to wear heels for about 4 months. Bump = poor balance. It’s hard not to tip forward at the best of times with flat shoes on, let alone high heels.

    • lisa says:

      aww congrats.

      HOPE the birth is good and the baby healthy. Such a beautiful thing to be waiting on.. (big smile)

  26. the original bellaluna says:

    Hard to “give birth” when you’re not pregnant. And isn’t she “due” in February? Because it’s barely January. (And I’m still sticking to my “it’s Jay’s side-piece’s paid-off kid” theory.)

  27. Hellen says:

    I’m betting on LaDereonce. Which will then become the name of her baby-clothing line.

  28. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    Solange is at least French but it does sound try hard. Beyonce is unique but not THAT bad. Names with meanings don’t bother me. Even unusual names like Phinneus and yes Apple (as pretentious as it is, I do get it. Moxie Crime Fighter, Inspektor Pilot…WTH? That’s worse that Bumqueesha to me.

    Names I like are
    Imani
    Zaire
    Olivia
    Piper
    Gabriella

    • the original bellaluna says:

      What about Kal-el Coppola Cage?!?

      • TheOriginalVictoria says:

        I forgot that one! Yeah that one is really bad.

        I like the trend of renaming boys tradional names for them that were then given to girls. I like Dana and Mackenzie for boys.

        But I also like that for the girls as well; gender switching names. James, Anderson, Ryan, Braden, and Michael are great names for girls. I know a girl named Michael and there is an actress named Michael Michelle.

    • Cat says:

      I’m sure it’ll be Knowlynn or Knowlind something along those lines…

  29. ol cranky says:

    fried chicken and oysters, how “partially vegan” of them smh

  30. Marybel says:

    There is no explanation for the folded over belly in the red dress pic. NONE. This pregnancy is as fake as she is.

  31. naturegirl says:

    HOW CAN THAT MUCH PEOPLE CARRY OFF A CONSPIRACY? MONEY TALKS THAT WHY.

  32. PyCaramel says:

    I have never been pregnant and don’t plan to get pregnant anytime soon, but it just seems to me like she’s been carrying on and doing waaaay too much for a pregnant woman.

  33. samira677 says:

    “Money talks” is the dumbest reason to say the baby is fake. It doesn’t keep people from talking it only delays it. Eventually people ask for more money or tell somebody who tells somebody and it gets out. Again with dozens of people having to be involved, there’s no way everybody will be quiet. Also Victoria Beckham was still wearing high heals, flying, and running around until she gave birth and nobody claimed she the pregnancy was fake.

    • Anderlie says:

      Agree, I can’t understand this whole situation. The bikini pics talk, not money. No prosthetic could sit so well in the open and not be identified. I also think the famous dress was just a woman dressing for a bump she didn’t have yet because she was excited, or even just getting used to her new body.

  34. Adrien says:

    If Michael Jackson named his youngest “Blanket” (Prince Michael II) then perhaps Bey can nickname Tiana May, “Pillow”.

  35. Tazina says:

    It’s a real pregnancy all right. Does anyone care what her pregnancy cravings are or any of the rest of it. I guess to her credit those moron reporters are asking her those dumb questions. Beyonce should take this opportunity to retire. I think everyone has had enough of the sexy routine and the equally bad “music” she’s putting out.

  36. Daniel says:

    There’s talk going around the net and I totally believe it: The baby is a product of her dad cheating on her mom and she and tha Jay Z guy are adopting the baby. She’s not pregnant at all. Makes total sense. These people don’t live in reality.

  37. madpoe says:

    I have a feeling. That when paps get a photo of Bey’s newborn baby – the first photo- the baby will look 3 months old? Anyone get a funny feeling?

    Or the newborn pix will be of a tampon, can’t figure it out yet.

  38. crys737 says:

    I dont know its all very confusing. On the one side people are yelling saying shes preggo, and of course theres photo evidence of her bump when she was in a bikini. On the other side many of the things she has been doing seem shady (i.e high heels, collapsing bump, bump size change)…i just dont know…

  39. BELLA says:

    WHO WALKS AROUND IN HIGH HEELS WHEN YOU ARE PREGO? ONLY A FOOL

  40. Destiny says:

    Well I’m 32 weeks and my whole pregnancy someday I was big someday I was small and I can still wear 6 inch heels each pregnancy is different high heels was always a first choice so im use to it. I’m only 128 lbs fake pregnancy? Idont think so my belly was rounder in my first 3 months than now.

    I’m 38 weeks pregnant, so actually due anytime. I’m still wearing heels. And still going out (eating out/cinema…) apart from my small and beautifully round belly, no one could tell I’m pregnant, my figure didn’t change at all…. Don’t understand why everybody is thinking that if you’re pregnant you have to get big like an elephant… ridiculous.. And she does look pregnant!!!
