Beyonce: ‘the tight security was not for me, it was for our daughter’
In her first interview since daughter Blue Ivy was born on Jan.7, Beyonce gushed about motherhood, changing diapers and justifying the absurd, over-the-top security measures.
“He will change diapers, of course he will,” said Beyonce, referring to Jay Z, who announced he would stop using the word “bitch” in honor of the child.
“He is going to be a very hands-on father,” Beyonce told UK Star magazine. “He has already said publicly that providing isn’t love. Love is being there. Love is doing little things for your child.”
Jay-Z, who grew up slinging crack cocaine on the streets of Brooklyn, was in the delivery room when their first child was born.
“He would not have missed it for anything,” Beyonce crowed. “He is a very protective and loyal guy by nature. He is a very protective husband, and since we have found out I was pregnant I have seen the protective father in him.”
Beyonce’s chose of words is very interesting. In fact, she mentions variations of the word protection as if she feels unsafe subconsciously.
The 30-year-old first-time mom also defended the ultra-tight security surrounding the baby’s birth at Lenox Hill Hospital.
“Security was very tight, not for the sake of it,” she said. “It was for the security of our daughter.”
Is Nia Long’s baby Caucasian?
I get the craziest emails from my devoted readers, but none stranger than the one I received today. It was sent in by a loyal reader who claimed to be a “close family relation” to actress Nia Long.
She asked that I not post the email or mention specific details contained within the email. But she wanted Sandrarose.com readers to know that the race of Nia Long’s baby is Caucasian — not black or mixed.
She wrote that the baby was the result of an in vitro fertilisation. An IVF procedure involves the egg cells being fertilised by the sperm outside of the body and then implanted in the uterus.
The email writer goes on to say that neither Nia nor her boyfriend, former NBA player Ime Udoka, are the biological parents of the 2-month-old child.
But why would Nia go to such lengths to have a white baby? My loyal reader said Nia visited a fertility clinic to undergo the in vitro fertilization because there is a waiting list for white babies through U.S. adoption agencies.
Will this be a new fad among urban celebs since white celebrities have been adopting black babies as accessories for years?
Take a look at the pics and you decide. Is the baby white or black?
NC church sign proclaims the devil is on earth
According to TMZ.com, a North Carolina church sign was defaced by vandals over the weekend. The sign’s message — which was not authorized by the church as a message from God — read: BEYONCE HAD HER BABY. SATAN IS ON EARTH.
The pastor at Beulah Hill Baptist Church in West End, NC tells TMZ, he discovered the vandalism yesterday after receiving numerous complaints from locals asking who this Beyonce was. The sign was removed immediately.
The pastor may or may not have authorized the message, but someone in his congregation did. The sign’s lettering cannot be changed by outsiders without a key to open the display case.

Blue Ivy’s Auntie Solange Knowles Wants Some Attention Too
Amid all the hoopla over the “birth” of The Chosen One, Solange Knowles, the sister of the new mom, whose name shall not be mentioned, went on a Twitter rant yesterday deploring the insensitivity towards her sister.
“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,” she wrote in one of a series of tweets on her verified Twitter page.
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.
We hear that Solo’s anger was misdirected at her sister and brother-in-law, who refused to allow Solo to live tweet her niece’s birth — and who had the audacity to give fame whore Gwyneth Paltrow the honor of announcing the baby’s name to the world via a tweet!
Our very credible sources tell us Solange is “mad as hell” at her sister and brother-in-law for not giving her the privilege of announcing the baby’s name. But her sister reportedly told her she’ll get over it.
Auntie Kelly Rowland spotted shopping for somebody’s baby
Britain’s ‘X Factor’ judge Kelly Rowland was spotted shopping in New York’s Lucky Wang store for baby clothes. We can only assume that she was shopping for the baby of a former bandmate whose name my readers are tired of seeing so we I won’t mention it.
According to the Daily Mail, Kelly bought a green onesie with a picture of Rastafarian musician Bob Marley on the front.
The onsie looks bigger than a newborn who weighs 7 pounds. The item can be found on another store’s website, Shu Shi Shop, retailing for about $22.
She was seen leaving the store in a hurry with her purchase – possibly off to see the newborn and her famous parents who left the hospital in a grand display of narcissism this morning. Hopefully we won’t see or hear any more from those two for at least a month. We need a break.
Beyonce, Jay Z and Blue Ivy leave the hospital under uber-tight security
Apparently Beyonce and Jay Z think they’re the Obamas? The couple left Lenox Hill hospital early Tuesday with newborn baby Blue Ivy in tow. The NY Daily News says witnesses described a scene similar to the rolling roadblocks that the local police and Secret Service employ whenever President Obama is in town:
A procession of vehicles with blacked-out windows made a speedy exit from the upper East Side hospital’s side gate in the wee hours of Tuesday, witnesses said.
Two black SUVs motored quickly out of the facility’s E. 76th St. loading dock at 1:30 a.m.
Moments later, a van parked on a nearby corner reversed into the same loading dock, and the large roll-down gate closed.
The gate reopened a few minutes later and the van drove out, turned the wrong way on the one-way 76th St., and then headed north on Park Ave.
One of the two SUVs blocked traffic on Park Ave. so the van would not be impeded.
The second SUV pulled in behind the van, apparently to prevent anyone from following the music icons and their newborn daughter, Blue Ivy Carter.
It was “very precise, very military-like,” one witness said.
“Immediately, security personnel began leaving the hospital.” Source
Beyonce’s Security Blocks Dad from Seeing His Newborn Twins
As most of you know (unless you’ve been living under a rock) Beyonce’s surrogate mother gave birth to the singer’s first baby at an upper East side hospital in NY over the weekend.
The baby, named Blue Ivy (after Jay Z’s album Blueprint and Beyonce’s album, ’4′), was born by c-section on Saturday afternoon at Lenox Hill hospital. A hospital source dismissed rumors that Beyonce and Jay rented an entire hospital floor for $1.3 million.
“We don’t have entire floors sitting empty at Lenox Hill,” scoffed the source. Our source told us Beyonce and Jay Z were charged the same amount for services as any other patient. If anything, they spent that amount just on security,” she said.
Our source confirmed that the narcissistic couple actually shared the maternity ward with other expectant mothers.
According to the NY Daily News, Beyonce and her entourage occupied a vast area of the maternity wing, which caused problems for visitors attempting to see their newborns in the Neonatal ICU unit on the same floor.
Neil Coulon, 38, of Brooklyn (pictured at right) said the stress of his wife delivering two premature girls was tripled by Beyoncé’s bodyguards treating Lenox Hill Hospital like an exclusive nightclub.
Coulon griped that he’s been repeatedly barred from the sixth-floor neonatal intensive care unit, once for 20 minutes, by the superstar couple’s private security.
He said bodyguards wearing headsets even cleared the sixth floor waiting room, booting his relatives out.
“Three times they stopped me from entering or exiting the NICU (Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit) and it happened once on Friday — just because they wanted to use the hallway,” said Coulon, a contractor from Bedford-Stuyvesant.
“They should have been more strategic about it,” he said. “These are children with problems in intensive care and you’re just going to take over the hospital like you own it? All I want is an apology. Source
