Who Gave Birth to Blue Ivy, Beyonce or Tina Seals?

On top of everything in the lives of both Beyonce and Jay Z and, most especially, the divorce rumors swirling around them, there is now something else. It is a rumor brewing with a very strong aroma around the alleged surrogate mother of Blue Ivy. So, Beyonce did not actually give birth to Blue Ivy?

A woman, Tina Seals, has filed a suit in a Manhattan court claiming that she was, in fact, the birth mother of Beyonce’s daughter. And she wants custody of the “golden child”, Blue Ivy.

According to some legal experts, there was no way Beyonce and Jay Z could lose the rights to their daughter. But this factor would depend on their alleged relationship with Tina Seals, if any such relationship existed at all.

In the state of New York, it is illegal to pay anyone to act as a surrogate. But unpaid surrogacy is not illegal. Therefore, if indeed Tina Seals did act as a paid surrogate to the power couple, she might have a legitimate case.

Incidentally, two factors are not helping Beyonce in this matter. Firstly, she is very well known to be overtly narcissistic by her grandiose and excessive interest in her physical appearance. Women in her shoes, more so, those who are celebrities usually don’t have a room for any pregnancy or motherhood in their lives. To such women, a baby tends to create some form of unwelcome rivalry.

Secondly, Beyonce did not help her case against a claim of bogus pregnancy when sometimes in 2011, TMZ revealed to the whole world how Beyonce’s purported pregnancy “collapsed” while trying to sit down on a chair (See pictures below). This made many people across the world to believe that she was wearing a prosthetic.

Maybe it’s high time the power couple came out publicly to clear the air by making their positions known on all these wild rumors flying around them. Keeping mom and pretending all are well will never help their images as celebrities of note.

The Baby-dragging Bride of Tennessee.


A few weeks ago, a bride strapped her 1-month-old baby to the train of her wedding dress as she walked down the aisle of the Elam Baptist Church in Ripley, Tenn.

She unwittingly brought a new dimension to the phrase “baby on board.” Since the picture appeared in the cyberspace, the woman has been subjected to a barrage of criticisms for dragging the newborn baby down the aisle.

Typical of folks who “cry” about being “judged”, the woman has since declared angrily on Facebook that the baby was well secured and protected by Jesus. Furthermore, she is now on “war-path”, criticizing those who are criticizing her.

I guess, she merely wanted to show-off the baby as her “badge of honor” since she had “put the cart before the horse” by first having a baby before getting married. Except that, in the process, she unwittingly placed the poor baby in grievous danger.

Firstly, what if a guest jumped excitedly onto the aisle without knowing that a baby was “on board” behind the bride and fell on top of the child?

Secondly, what if something had happened and she (the bride) fell over backward on top of the baby?    

In a safe alternative to her dangerous stunt, the bride could have shown off the baby all the same. She could simply have carried the baby on her arms or have one end of a ribbon tied to her waist while the other end was tied to a pram inside which the baby was placed.
