Beyoncé Has Never Been Less Convincing About the Veracity of Her Pregnancy

Beyoncé Has Never Been Less Convincing About the Veracity of Her Pregnancy Than She Was in Her Own Movie



I never realized how not pregnant Beyoncé might have been until the Saturday premiere of her HBO documentary, Life Is But a Dream. Since announcing her pregnancy at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards (in August of that year), there have been naysayers, referred to with tongue in cheek as "Beyoncé birthers." There was that footage of her apparently pregnant belly folding in on itself when she made an appearance on Australian TV in the fall of 2011. Months later, Beyoncé addressed it with a pithy explanation: "It was a fabric that folded - does fabric not fold? Oh my gosh, so stupid."

Life Is But a Dream covers a...period of time before the supposed birth of Beyoncé and Jay-Z's daughter, Blue Ivy. It's hard to say exactly how long because particulars like where and when are barely telegraphed – there's not a single explanatory chyron in the entire film. Cynically, I wonder if this is a sign of co-director Beyoncé's egocentrism; she assumes that we've been following her closely enough to know what she's talking about without bothering to explain certain key facts. Or maybe she thinks we can read her mind. Or maybe she's just not that great of a memoirist.

i like this comment from the source

"It is unsettling that a group of readers such as the Gawker Media empire attracts would shame a woman into showing her body all but naked just to *prove* she was the birth mother of her own daughter. Disturbing and disgusting."

people are sad tbh

the jokes about this conspiracy were funny when keri was writing them and she done moved on. like who really gives a fuck about what's in/not in her vagina.

who fucking cares? My husband was bitching about this and I was like, why do you care? Why do you think you are entitled to know if she was actually caring that child? I know she has a baby now and that it's gonna live better than most people so what-the-fuck-ever.

for a site that literally circle jerks over the word misogyny and feminism every other post, you sure won't hesitate to try and tear down a female whose only interest regarding her birth was the privacy of her family. if you're a female and are even entertaining discussions of this, you should be ashamed of yourself.

ugh your icon. idc what anyone says, I love the videophone collab.

I'm not sure if it's more disturbing that people are obsessed with knowing if she was lying or the fact that she made a documentary about her pregnancy. this sounds like annoying pregnant friends who post belly updates every week x100.

but I think everyone should go home, because who cares about Beyoncés uterus

I was about to care but then I remembered the OP is a massive racist (and no, not because they don't like Beyonce, because they actually make racist comments regularly and about Rihanna too) and I was like...BYE.

Have fun trolling you sad pathetic flop.

Why would you see Rihanna live? you do know she doesn't lip sync right?. someone should obviously tell her too.
mattthew 18th-Feb-2013 11:58 pm (UTC)
the op seems like a total tool.


i'm a huge rihanna fan

that is on like "i have a black friend, i'm not racist1!!1!!" levels
shayme 18th-Feb-2013 11:25 pm (UTC)
Also, I feel bad for Blue that this is never gonna go away. Poor girl.
bellwetherr 18th-Feb-2013 11:28 pm (UTC)
This whole article is tired. Her pregnancy is no one's business. And everyone complaining about how fake and egotistical Beyonce is need to take a long hard look at their own faves. Everyone in Hollywood is about as far up their own ass as one could possibly be.

of course this is a Rich Juzwiak article. fuck him. i literally can't stand him. him and AJ Daulerio are the worst things about gawker.

Oh good god.

*yawn* people ain't tired of this yet?
t3pps 18th-Feb-2013 11:54 pm (UTC)
I can't believe this is still a thing
I can think of several celebrities telling blatant lies that haven't been called on it one tenth as much as Beyonce has been by the conspiracy theorists
addicteddisplay 18th-Feb-2013 11:55 pm (UTC)
Why does it matter? LMAO.

Are these people trying to fuck up this child's future? She's already the baby of Beyonce & jay-Z.
mattthew 18th-Feb-2013 11:56 pm (UTC)
god some of you are sickening. get over it. move on with your lives. find something else to give your life meaning rather than supporting a tired conspiracy theory that has 0 consequential meaning.

she was pregnant. she gave birth. move on.
retromaury 19th-Feb-2013 12:04 am (UTC)
Except she wasn't, she's a sociopath & a narcissist
mattthew 19th-Feb-2013 12:09 am (UTC)
