Beyonce says it all comes down to her wanting to protect her baby, explaining:
“The truth is, it’s safety. I just want to make sure I can have a peaceful day. And I want to make sure my child is protected.
There are certain things that are so far [out] … it doesn’t even upset you,” she said.
Other rumors do take a toll, Knowles said, but on her protective family more than on her. When asked how excited about the baby Jay-Z was, Knowles said, “You can only imagine, and multiply that. It’s very exciting for both of us and our families. … Everyone is so anxious. It’s like the time just can’t come fast enough.”
Bey gives us some insight as to what happened after she made the astonishing announcement at the VMAs.
“Physically I was starting to show, so it was only a matter of days before someone zoomed in. So I just wanted it to be from me, and I wanted it to be something that was a celebration of something so beautiful. And I didn’t want to release a picture or a statement. I figured the biggest statement was to — just be.”
[After the announcement] I just felt free. I really did, because I’d been holding the most exciting thing in for so long, and I just felt like, Wow, now I can enjoy and now I can just experience this the way that every woman should. So I felt so liberated, and I felt like, Oh, I can breathe and be happy. And, you know, it was a beautiful feeling. … I went straight off the stage and just cried. I hugged my mom, I hugged Jay and just cried. It was a beautiful day.”
It sounds like it was such a beautiful moment! We can’t wait for Jay-Z and Beyonce’s bundle of joy to get here.
