Solange Knowles Unleashes Twitter Rant Over Beyonce Baby Rumors

Solange Knowles has launched a soft twitter rant against all the naysayers of Beyonce‘s baby and pregnancy. Solange became a proud aunty on Saturday night when Beyonce delivered her first child, a daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. For six months the family has suffered through incessant rumors of Beyonce’s pregnancy, whether it was fake, did she have a surrogate and so much more.

For the first time Solange spoke her mind and she remained classy all the way.

“It has really gotten out of hand. I’ve been doing my best at keeping my mouth shut…but the ignorance is really sad and upsetting.”

“We are supposed to be super human and watch people we love get slandered, lied on, and ridiculed. It is one of THE hardest things to accept.”

“In any other workplace..if someone directly tells your mother or sister is a liar and a fake ect…you would naturally express yourself.”

“However, the pure happiness and joy I’ve witnessed and experienced helps me to keep my mouth shut.”

Unfortunately for Solange and the Carter family the rumors may be around for sometime

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.
