Solange attacks Jay Z – Last week Monday Jay Z and Beyonce attended the MET Gala in New York City at the Standard Hotel along with Beyonce’s younger sister Solange. A new video just surfaced via TMZ showing Solange attacking Jay Z in an elevator as Beyonce looked on. The attacked appeared to be unprovoked as others in the elevator also stood and watched.
Seconds later, a bodyguard, presumably Beyonce’s longtime bodyguard, attempts to restrain Solange who was kicking and swinging away at her brother-in-law.
Jay Z refrains from retaliating, only desperately trying to maintain an enraged Solange. Beyonce stands by without getting physically involved.
Acccording to TMZ, the video shows the bodyguard “hit the emergency stop switch on the 12th floor — mid-fight — presumably to keep the fight private.”
Outside of the building, the only indication of a squabble is through Solange’s countenance. Bey has a smile on her face and her husband seems unfazed. Jay Z even attempts to enter the same vehicle as Solange, until Bey’s bodyguard escorts him to another vehicle.
No one from the Knowles or Knowles-Carter family has addressed the incident.
