Beyonce Delivers Baby: Prompts Search For Pregnant Pictures

UPDATE-Beyonce delivered a baby girl on Friday night named Blue Ivy Carter! Reportedly Beyonce gave birth via a scheduled c-section.

Now that the ‘Single Ladies’ star has finally given birth her pregnant pictures have stormed the web! For many in search of Beyonce pregnant pictures it is because they hope to relive the pop star’s 9 month transition but for others it comes from the curiosity to confirm whether Beyonce was pregnant in the first place!   In November Beyonce confirmed she was 6 months pregnant in September which would make her 8 months in November and due in December.

That didn’t slow the debate that raged on over a possible fake pregnancy ever since Beyonce shared the wonderful news with the world at the 2011 MTV VMA’s. Immediately the whispers began over her alleged fluctuating baby bump size, whether she and Jay-Z retained the surfaces of a surrogate and when was she really due. The latest news came in the form of a blind item stating that a Spanish or Portuguese young woman who’s already mother to a kindergarten age child was living in the Lower West Side. She is not married and doesn’t know anyone in the city. But her apartment was reportedly being paid for Beyonce and Jay-Z.

Before the blind item the biggest debate came in October after Beyonce’s baby bump/prosthetic apparently folded as she sat down for an interview. Despite the incessant rumors Mrs. Knowles Carter remained in spirit and always surfaced with a smile, glowing skin and gorgeous style. During an interview with Katie Couric, Bey revealed that the fake pregnancy rumors upset her mother but they’re too crazy for her to be bothered. That’s an excellent spirit.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
