Beyoncé & Jay Z Are Pregnant With Twins

The cultural, political, feminist music powerhouse known as Beyoncé dropped baby news in an Instagram post on Wednesday. The bombshell was just another example of the pop star's strong preference for controlling her own narrative. 

The news comes as 'Lemonade' is nominated for nine Grammy Awards, hosted on Feb. 12. The happy baby mama is also scheduled to headline the second night of the Coachella festival, scheduled April 15 and April 22 in the California desert.  There's no word now if the show will go on. (Updated) Word is that Beyoncé plans on performing two nights at Coachella, in her third trimester with twins. She'll have two special guests with her. And there is an insurance policy in place, in case she can't perform. 

Beyoncé signed her Instagram post 'The Carters', yet another signal of happy times for the couple. Their daughter Blue Ivy Carter, was born on Jan. 7, 2012. The New York Times writes: 

While Beyoncé is famously averse to interviews and rarely discusses her personal life without setting the terms, she put the spotlight on her marriage with the release last year of the album and HBO film “Lemonade.”

It told the story of a struggling relationship, including explicit infidelity and, eventually, reconciliation. Many assumed the songs’ lyrics — which ranged from heartbroken to defiant to forgiving — were autobiographical, though the couple never revealed how much of the story was based in reality.

Whatever are these celebs drinking these days. Pharrell Williams and his wife, Helen Lasichanh, are reported to have recently welcomes triplets.
