Well, there's your answer, all you doubting Thomases out there: Beyoncé and Jay-Z now go by the name Mom and Dad!
The singer whose 'bump' was purported to be a fake, gave birth to a baby girl named Blue Ivy Carter in New York this weekend, according to her hometown paper, the Houston Chronicle. 30-year-old Beyoncé gave birth more than a month early, though it wasn't clear at the time of writing whether she was booked in for a C-section or whether babe arrived prematurely.
"The most beautiful girl in the world," tweeted Beyoncé's sister, Solange Knowles, who is admittedly, a little biased.
Of course Twitter was awash in A-list well wishes, from the likes of 'Aunty Rih' (Rihanna) and Gwynie who claimed, "We love you already." Another tweep, Liam McKenna, had fun Photoshopping little Blue.
Blue may be just a couple days old, but a Boston-based event planning company with the same name is getting a taste of the fame and attention that awaits her. Blue Ivy has been flooded with calls, texts, etc.
"Clearly great minds think alike," says Blue Ivy owner Veronica Alexandra, who claims she'd LOVE to plan all of the little girl's milestone parties, and even quipped that she should be the "face of the company." Somehow I doubt that would fly.
Congrats to the power couple, and welcome Blue. I'm sure -- even with a name like that -- your life will be anything but.
