Beyonce & Jay-Z want Oprah to be Blue Ivy’s godmother

We have some assorted Beyonce news today, which makes me happy. Nothing makes me feel less sickly than thinking about the avalanche of lies that Beyonce has surrounded herself with, and where she goes from here. Radar and Media Takeout are reporting that Bey and Jay-Z have decided on little Blue Ivy’s godmother – and no, it’s not Rihanna. It’s not Solange. It’s not Kelly Rowland. And it’s not even Gwyneth Paltrow. According to these sources, Bey and Jay want Oprah to be Blue Ivy’s spiritual guardian! OPRAH.

Though her daddy’s got 99 problems, Blue Ivy’s led a charmed life so far.

And as if the newborn daughter of Beyonce and Jay-Z didn’t have enough going for her come Christmas time, word has it that she’s about to get a golden godmother: talk show icon Oprah Winfrey.

Mediatakeout.com reports the A-list couple have chosen the legendary media figure as Blue’s godmother, as they’ve grown close to her.

Jay-Z’s pal, Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith, is Blue’s godfather, the website reports, noting the power couple wanted to make sure their godparents weren’t blood-related.

The 30-year-old Dreamgirls stunner — checked in under the name “Ingrid Jackson” — delivered the child via Cesarean section earlier this month at Manhattan’s Lenox Hill Hospital, where she and the hubby doled out $1.3 million for use of the facility’s fourth floor.

[From Radar]

Ha, Radar is still sticking with the “Beyonce had a C-section” story even though she claimed Blue Ivy was delivered naturally. As for the Oprah stuff – sure. I could see that. I could also see Kanye West being named the Godfather. What would it be like for little Blue Ivy to have Oprah and Kanye as godparents?

In other Beyonce news, In Touch Weekly reports this week that Bey “hates her body right now,” so she’s decided to do the “Master Cleanse” once again. The Master Cleanse is the liquid diet (which Gwyneth is always recommending) which involves “a mixture of water, maple syrup, lemon juice and cayenne pepper for at least ten days. Laxatives, either via pill or a salt water flush, are also part of the program.” Do you really believe that Bey would go on The Master Cleanse less than a month after giving birth (naturally!)? Wouldn’t it be easier for her to just take off the pillow?

    Sounds about right… And according to Kelly Rowland the pillow is stunning 😉

    • Snappyfish says:

      OF course they do, how original, do they actually know her, socialize w/her? Or is just amassing the resume? Will Barack be the godfather, then?

    • Capella says:

      Well, to be fair, Oprah is known to be godmother to a lot of adopted children. So why not the pillowy Ivy?

      • Ally says:

        Wow, Beyoncé and Jay-Z are so humble.

        I would have expected them to ask Oprah and Obama to be the godparents.

  2. atlantapug says:

    Uh oh, Oprah-Gwinnie catfight!!!! lol.

    Yep, super private people all right. Getting one of the most famous women on the planet to be Godmother and then leaking it to the press. They must have another album coming up to promote.

    And there it is!! Just like we all called it, the “how I got my figure back” stories are already starting.
    1. Remove pillow
    2. Put on tight dress

    There.

    You can’t breastfeed on “Master Cleanse” and it would be quite unhealthy to start it right after giving birth even if you weren’t breastfeeding.

    • Roma says:

      Agreed. I went on a massive juice fast (like in Fat, Sick and Nearly dead) and although I’m pretty healthy I checked first with my doctor anyways.

      He talked about how annoyed he was with the Master Cleanse and how unhealthy it is – you cannot get all your nutrients from maple syrup. People are exhausted on the cleanse… a true, I just gave birth to my beautiful daughter human being would be more concerned for being “present” for her child than doing a cleanse.

      Bey’s just putting this out for her “excuse” as to how she lost the weight.

  3. Sue says:

    Hahaha! I’m going with use a smaller pillow…..

  4. Marcus says:

    They are still hiding because they not finish casting for their baby.

    • Tillie says:

      Hahahaha fantastic response! 😀

      • paola says:

        Yes i totally agree, not in a million years she was carrying the baby, she never looked pregnant, not once, it seems to me like it was the quickest pregancy the world has ever witnessed, now it seems like Jennifer Garner and Jessica Simpson have been pregnant for years, like they will delivery baby elephants after years of gestation.

      • squaw says:

        SO TRUE!!!!

    • Blue says:

      Lol, that’s funny

  5. Marjalane says:

    Beccause Oprah is just as shallow and ego defined as Blue Ivy’s parents.

  6. Maya says:

    Goopy will be so disappointed!

    • becky says:

      I bet she’s devastated. How could anyone other than Gwyn possibly have been asked?

      • Ally says:

        Goopy spreads her out-of-touch wisdom to the whole world, not just her godchildren!

        Blue Ivy can just read her blog like the rest of us.

  7. paola says:

    lies, LIES, L I E S. why is it so hard for these people, not to say the truth..but at least stop lying?! Beyonce is really getting on my nerves now.

  8. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    Bitch please.

    Oprah is evil. She does a lot of good but I believe it comes from an evil place, so basically they picked the perfect person to govern over their daughter should anything happened to her, because she’s be teacher that poor Blue all the values they’d teach her.

    And Oprah doesn’t even have any children.

    And as close as Bey is to all her “family”, I’m shocked she didn’t even name her sister (who does at least have her own child) as godmother. That’s, of course, if these rumours are true which I half believe they are and half don’t.

    • Sunshine says:

      Yep! I hate Oprah, Beyonce and Jay-Z because you can just feel and see the evil oozing off of them! It’s like they have a huge black cloud for an aura or something. It astonishes me that they have actual fans, that people actually like them! WTF? I do feel bad for that poor little baby though, the life for Illuminati children is horrendous. God watch over her….poor baby.

    • Mimi says:

      I’m not a huge fan of Oprah but I had no idea her charity came from an “evil place”. I’m curious…care to elaborate?

      • TheOriginalVictoria says:

        Well the Illuminati isn’t really the correct term as that “organisation” has been dead for centuries. But yes, I do believe there are people who pull the strings and that the more money you’re allowed to make, especially as an entertainer or business mogul, the more you are asked to sacrifice a piece of your soul. Because honestly you can’t claim to be Cristian, Jewish, or whatever other faith you state you are and sell the crock of goods these entertainers do, which is why I have a lot of respect when people like Brad Pitt and Ricky Gervais just decide to leave God out of it all together and go athiest. Good for you.

        As for Oprah, my issues with her started around the time she claimed herself a Christian and with her influence reaching all corners of the earth, began to graft in New Age stuff with it and claiming “All Roads Lead To God.” No Christian in their right mind would say that. What she said was really dangerous and misleading to folks who know nothing about the faith

        I respect everyone’s religion, what I don’t don’t respect is people trying to force followers of one faith to change their views, beliefs, customs, or whatever to fit in with other faiths or secular views. The Bible is the Bible, the Q’ran is the Q’ran and the Books of Spells is the Book of Spells, etc. Don’t be trying to change it to suit your purposes. Live and let live.

        I also find her to be smug and condescending and everything her celebrity guests did, she has done to or tried. Her favorite things reeks of materialism and elitism. And it’s clear to me who she caters to and it ain’t God. With some of her beliefs and the type of influence she has I find her suspect and somewhat dangerous because people are for the most part sheep. While on the one hand I am proud of what she has accomplished as a black woman, I also question what she had to give up to accomplish it.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        @the original victoria, I bow down and clap!
        Could not have said it better. So sick of the two of them and now this. Poor Blue illuminati Carter.
        Oprah and BJ definitely are worshipping someone that isn’t God, that is for sure.
        Wanna move up the ladder, gotta make some sacrifices.

    • kazoo says:

      Illuminati?

      • Mimi says:

        I just can’t with that one. I’m all for the Baby Pillow Conspiracy, but the Illuminati one is just too much for me to personally fathom.

      • Lindsay says:

        Original Victoria: I’m sorry to be the one to point this out to you but buying into the illuminati conspiracy says more about your mental state than anybody else’s. You sound kind of paranoid and seem to think that you can’t have money unless you do something evil to please an imaginary group of people so that they will allow you to keep all your money. What that says about you is that you feel completely powerless in this world and that you associate money with evil. It’s an unhealthy way to live your life. Seek help.

    • kazoo says:

      Ugh, it won’t let me reply to your most recent comment Victoria. But thanks for explaining. Very interesting viewpoint that I hadn’t considered.

    • detroit says:

      agree beyonce is a bitch so is oprah like forreal that bitch is a liar and she fake so is that baby

  9. Sarko says:

    I call Gwyneth P!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Sarko says:

      Oh and judging by her face fullness in the above picture.I have no doubt girlfriend really was pregnant. I never bought into the conspiracy theories in the first place anyways.

      • S says:

        Thank you! At least someone sounds sane. Good Lord, there are some conspiracy theorists here. Everywhere, really. SMH

      • Ogechi says:

        Me too. I am more than 100% sure that Beyonce was pregnant, no doubt about that! Baby Blue is the luckiest baby on this planet to have such an amazing parents.

      • novaraen says:

        Don’t see the face fullness at all.

  10. brin says:

    Snap! Poor Solange.

  11. Naye in VA says:

    I would think that going on the master clease after giving birth would be a major, and probably damaging shock to the body…at least she isnt breastfeeding i guess

  12. Quest says:

    It is not healthy to go on such a drastic diet especially if she is “naturally” breast feeding. Or did she not factor that into her bed of lies

  13. k says:

    I don’t believe a damn thing in this story. I do think she was actually pregnant and had a c section. Sorry but I stopped reading after Mediatakeout was cited as a legit resource. Feel better Kaiser.

  14. Nanz01 says:

    I know people do cleanses all the time. I’ve tried myself, but have zero will power beyond a day. However, isn’t the use of laxatives to lose weight considered an eating disorder? Serious question. Maybe I’m misinformed. I had a friend in high school who was treated for an eating disorder bc she used laxatives to lose weight. Anyway, isn’t a healthy diet and exercise easier and longer-lasting than quick fixes?

    • Agnes says:

      You’re right, I have a friend who uses laxatives for “dieting” purposes and she has major food issues – it’s def not normal and prob something a person’s doctor should know about.

    • Mimi says:

      You drink a “stimulating” senna tea to loosen the bowels while you’re on the MC, otherwise your body has no way of flushing the toxins you’re supposedly eliminating. I’ve done it about ten times and yes it sucks every time. 🙂

  15. Agnes says:

    These famewhores cannot be stopped, can they? Good god.

  16. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    I did the master cleanse last year, and I would only do it to detox. Doing it once a year to clean out your system isn’t so bad, but I wouldn’t do it all willy milly and it’s very hard to do. I failed the first two times.

    • Nanz says:

      This is good to know. Maybe I’ll try it again.

      Edit: although after reading Mimi’s comment, I’m afraid. 😳

      • Mimi says:

        Nah it’s not that bad, just…not a whole lotta fun. I was dating a boyfriend that did it twice a year, so in the interest of solidarity, I tagged along. Happy to report we broke it off and I am never drinking that sh-t again. I looked & felt great after ten days tho.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        Mimi, for how long did you notice a difference and did the weight come back? Curious about these things. She can’t be breastfeeding.

        Do you gain the weight right back, how much is the average loss. Don’t know if I could do it.

  17. Courtney says:

    using laxitives doesn’t always mean an eating disorder maybe she’s been constipated after birth which is pretty common. not all mother who want to breastfeed are able to for many reasons and she would be abloe to pump before she went on the show breastfeeding while famous is quite possible and has actually been done for decades even Mariah Carey nursed her twins for their first three months of life and you have to eat extra while your nursing also not all pregnant women gain a lot of weight during pregnancy and those that do usually have complications so they can’t help it just look at Mariah when she was pregnant with Roc n Roe gestational diabetes double hernia and toximia among other things which caused her to need to deliver them 5 weeks early otherwise she could’ve had a stroke and either all three of them would have serious problems now or be dead ask Lucy Neal Dahl her mother academy award winning actress Patricia Neal had a series of strokes while pregnant with her that left Pat parallized and unable to nurse Lucy as she had done with her older children though she had to stop early with her only son Theo because he was brain damaged in a road accident

  18. Beatrix says:

    And instant advertising for this master cleanse. That woman did not give birth, let’s move on knowing how frivolous this whole family is.

  19. NerdMomma says:

    I can’t imagine how self-centered a person would have to be to put herself through a cleanse a month out from giving birth. You’re already cranky, tired, hormonal, and you need to be able to focus on your baby. I know it’s just a rumor, but if that was true….yikes.

    • aprayerforthewildatheart says:

      Don’t you see that Bey can’t be allowed to breastfeed? That that’s why she’ll be doing the cleanse, to keep herself from producing milk?

      If Queen Bey were allowed to produce milk, every single drop would be PURE GOLD!! We can’t have Bey producing pure gold thus upsetting the gold standard, and further ruining our economy! She’s such a saint to not do that to this nation. We’ve been through so much already with the bump watch, and preparation for the second coming…

  20. Tierra says:

    oh please, this is just another way to keep her in the news. why not ask The Pope to be the Godfather while they’re at it. I guess the bloat from the meds she was taking to look preggers wasnt as easy to lose as she thought.
    these 2 just need to give it a rest.

    • BOSS says:

      CTFU!! So this is where all the pretty girls congregate eh? I can tell most of you are thrilled when looking in the mirror. How wonderful for you 😀 And the meds Star told you she was taking because she knew she would pack on the pounds because it happened accidentally to her before? UH… Yeah it’s for cancer RA lupus and multiple sclerosis. No wonder she refused to carry satans seed and opted for a surrogate. She’s sure to be kicked out of the illuminati now! Now who’s going to sing for her to make those millions!? Poor cancer stricken Bey 🙁

  21. Bubbling says:

    Somewhere out there Goop is crying crocodile tears and stuffing her face with fried cheese

  22. Cathy says:

    The others aren’t godparent material. They don’t have nearly as much money as Oprah. They don’t want Blue to give up her lifestyle if something happened to them, so Oprah is the obvious choice.

  23. LAK says:

    of course she does. And Warren Buffet and Obama as the god parents. Goopy will just have to be content with babysitting duties, she’s not rich enough for the god parent position.

  24. Justaposter says:

    Okay I will say this about laxitives and c-sections. When you have a surgery your digestive track shuts down for a bit, and the pain meds can sometimes back you up.

    You cannot leave the hospital without at least passing gas (the only time girls fart LOL) or have a bowel movement.

    I have had 3 c-sections, and with my oldest, I had zero problems. With my second one my Dr had me take colate as a precation. It is very gentle and works. With my 3rd and final child I really did need the colate!

    Dear God! Never ever did I imagine I would be discussing bowel movents quasi defending Bey on a gossip blog!!

    As far as Oprah being a Godmother.. I can only say that Tom Cruise is prolly smaking himself upside his head wishing he thought of this first!

    • CreamSoda says:

      You don’t have to take the pain meds. I didn’t after my C-section; didn’t take them after my cancer surgery either. Fewer worries about being backed up if you avoid tbe extra meds.

      In B’s case none of it probably matters anyway since someone else carried and birthed that baby.

      • Girl says:

        I’m very glad you didn’t have to take pain meds. Some of us do need them though. Not everyone is able to avoid them. In fact, for some it’s best they do. Coughing or sneezing after a c/section, just moving around, can be incredibly painful.

        I hope your cancer is in remission.

      • Justaposter says:

        I am such a baby I say bring on the meds! LOL

        I am a cancer survivor as well.. I wish you many, many years of great health!!

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        They give them to you after a vaginal birth too. Especially if you got an episiotomy. Good God, that first crap was scarier than having the baby. I literally had to make myself go, and I cried before I got up the nerve. Stitches and bowel movements should not be going on together in the same place. Yikes!

      • Isa says:

        I had to take the pain meds or else I wouldn’t have been able to make it up to the NICU. Even with them, my face was white from pain after I got up there. The nurses gave me a gas pill with my pain meds and it still didn’t work. My belly was bloated and I was crying because of the pain. No one warned me about that.

  25. sassenach says:

    Mediatakeout as a source? Really? No need to finish the article.

  26. benny says:

    I wish people would stop using that stupid euphemism “cleanse” (or “detox”) and call this crap what it is: a crash diet. It’s a liquid diet that is too low in calories, combined with spices or other substances that have laxative effect. People have been abusing laxatives to lose weight for a long time, and it’s unhealthy, leads to poor nutrition and somtimes permanent problems with the digestive system.

    It’s like people saying some celebrity isn’t a drug addict, he’s “self-medicating.” I HATE stupid euphemisms. Call it what it is.

    Beyonce is going on a crash diet. Call it what it is.

  27. kimberly says:

    let me add my personal eye roll to this story. B do your cleanse and then eat right and nothing processed, w/ has sugar subs, or with preservatives, like we all know to do that shows results. BUT we know that she’ll do a stupid celeb-diet that is unrealistic to get on the front of a magazine for publicity. so predictable. so boring.

    and I’m sorry but Oprah is worst than religion to housewives and needy chicks EVERYWHERE!

  28. Psyren says:

    What’s up with her breasts in those pics?

    • TheOriginalVictoria says:

      They are fake! There are pictures of her having prosthetic breasts so that they look like Mommy boobs! You can see them coming apart in the swells of her chest. Check out Destiny’s Rehab or Sandra Rose. They have they have plenty of pictures.

  29. anonymoose says:

    The only story I want to read about this family of succubi is that they have donated their possessions to needy families and have moved to Haiti to live in a shack farming their own food and doing honest labor to build homes for others, and that they will no longer be feeding media organizations with their myth-making bs.

    • aprayerforthewildatheart says:

      Maybe they could move to Trinidad instead, since that’s where Jay’s son apparently lives? I heard that kid has a mansion. They could farm there as well, and live in a shack on the property surrounding said mansion. 😉

  30. Eric says:

    Oprah is a perfect Godmother for their rat looking baby.

  31. Meanchick says:

    What? Nelson Mandela said no? So ready for them to sit down and STFU!

  32. aprayerforthewildatheart says:

    Nice chicken cutlet peeping out of Bey’s dress in that top pic. Oh that Bey, ever the fashion forward icon, chicken cutlets are meant to be shown! So says Queen Bey!

    That said, Godparents aren’t what they used to be. I have a good friend who’s Godfather is Carlos Santana. At forty + she’s still never met him, but “fingers crossed”. Anyway, they could pick anyone they damn well please to be Ivy’s Godparents, who would be so rude to say no, especially after it’s been “leaked” to the press. I could just see the headlines “OMG! Oprah is such a terrible person, Jay and Bey asked her to be Blue’s Godmother and the B!TCH said no!!”. Oprah is stuck with it whether she wants it or not.

  33. Phoenix says:

    Oprah-Godmother
    Obama-Godfather

    Private people huh Beyonce? I’m so sick of you telling the whole world that you’re a private person. Get over yourself.

  34. Phase II says:

    A healthy dose of common sense and self respect is needed, also a pillow-lift, face-lift, brain-transplant, super-master cleanse to clear up the cob-webs.

  35. Jolene says:

    Ugh! By the sound of it, that diet is just asking for long stays on the toilet.

  36. Asli says:

    CB needs to do a post about when Roseanne Barr dissed Jay and Bey on Twitter a couple of days ago. Funny stuff. And WHY did Obama choose Beyonce over Etta at the inaguration (sp?). It was Etta’s damn song. I swear, Roseanne has got a foul mouth and she ain’t afraid to use it. Go Roseanne!

    • Asli says:

      Also apparently Rocawears sales are dwindling and Jay fired 28 of 56 people working there the day before the surrogate gave birth. They spent alot of money on all that crap for the baby but he’s firing people left and right. Weird.

  37. Leek says:

    Uugh. Vomit.

  38. novaraen says:

    Oh yes…she just HATES her body. LOL…She loves her body, which is why she pillowed!

    The few of you in here(there aren’t many) who think she was actually pregnant explain to me why Jennifer Garner and Jessica Simpson and the other pregnant stars are STILL pregnant and Bey went from 3 months to DONE in no time???

    FAKE! lol…

  39. Isa says:

    She had the body type that would normally blow up…but she didn’t.

    • The Girl Next Door says:

      Who are you to dictate anothers body type? So people with certain body types have to “blow up” in order to carry a baby?

      Do yourself a favor and save your ignorant, uneducated comments.

      • aprayerforthewildatheart says:

        We are all allowed to state our opinions, we are not experts on anything. This is a gossip site not Reuters! Why are you trolling?

  40. G says:

    Why do people care so much about somebody you will probably never meet. You should be trying to figure out how to get on their level. Stop being so jealous of people with money. You should try to work on getting yourself to the top. If Beyonce wanted to protect her baby from the media and the likes of some of the people making these ridiculous comments, then that is what she suppose to do. Obviously if you are that jealous of a baby then you have major problems. #selfanalyzeplease

  41. REAL- AS- IT- GETS says:

    Ummmmm….Until I HEAR BEYONCE OR JAY-Z ANNOUNCE IT…it aint true….I am so sick of the Mediatakeout lies! People are going at Bey like she REALLY SAID THIS…Wow, have you ever heard her or Jay say anything but….The actual press release and that was written. Cut out the judgement and cruel things that are being said about them and their kid. Also….Pillow? Fake Baby? so they paid 100’s of folks to shhhhh about a fake kid to impress who? For what…She was fat and pregnant…what pictures were the haters looking at? Trust and believe if there was any fake stuff poppin of…it would have already surfaced….for whatever you pay as hush money it;s always somebody willing to pay more to out you…BLUE IS HERE, BLUE WAS BORN OUT OF BEYONCES COOCH, HER DAD IS JAY, Stop using the blogs as your news source….its really annoying that grown broads lie so much…hate her, but why lie on her… If Lady O is godmommy…SO WHAT! My sisters arent my kids godmom either…ridiculous…

  42. Blondey says:

    “Greed-mother” is more like it.

  43. The Girl Next Door says:

    I find it hillarious that people are so quick to believe everything they read. So we degrade people before we know the actual truth? No wonder this society is so f*cked. LMAO

  44. Howard Stern Exposes a Screeching Beyonce from Board Feed on Today Show

    http://www.hark.com/clips/jpjnxkzygk-howard-stern-exposes-a-screeching-beyonce-from-board-feed-on-today-show

    Howard: Just get the board feed. If someone off key. It’s pretty funny. This is Beyonce form the Today Show. It’s always funny.

    They were hearing the cd or the track. Robin: So she’s lip syncing? Howard: Yeah, basically. But you know she’s singing along with it. Having a hard time I guess. Isn’t a good voice.

    Howard Stern airs Beyoncé’s raw, unedited live performance of “If I Were a Boy” on “Today” show. Unsurprisingly, it’s shockingly bad.
