BEYONCE AND JAY-Z WELCOME BABY GIRL
Superstar couple Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z have welcomed their first child – a baby girl named Blue Ivy Carter. The 30-year-old singer’s daughter arrived via scheduled caesarean section at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City last night.
The couple’s close friend Gwyneth Paltrow confirmed the baby’s arrival on Twitter, writing: ‘Welcome to the world Blue! We love you already.’
And the singer’s younger sister Solange tweeted today: ‘The most beautiful girl in the world.’
Beyoncé’s 42-year-old rapper husband Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, was by her side during the birth. Despite initial confusion the baby was named Ivy Blue.
Celebrities have already started tweeting their congratulations to the couple.
Beyoncé announced her pregnancy at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards back in August, when she arrived on the red carpet cradling her tiny bump.
The singer also showed off her growing tummy after her onstage performance at the same ceremony – unbuttoning her sequinned jacket and rubbing her tummy.
It was originally thought she was due in February, but Beyoncé revealed in scenes from her Live At Roseland: Elements Of 4 DVD – which was filmed in September – that she was six months pregnant at the time.
