Jay-Z reveals Beyonce suffered a miscarriage before falling pregnant with Blue Ivy Carter

Beyonce suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage before falling pregnant with her daughter, according to her husband Jay-Z.

The rapper made the revelation in a new song Glory which he posted on his social website Life and Times today.

The tune is a tribute to the couple's new baby, Blue Ivy Carter, who was born by C-section, at in New York late Saturday night.

But Jay-Z's sweet song gives fans the details, and more: 'You're my child of a child from Destiny's Child.'

In the song, Jay-Z, 42, talks about where the child was conceived (in Paris) and even reveals that Beyonce, 30, had a lost a child one point.

'Last time the miscarriage was so tragic/We was afraid you'd disappear/But nah baby you magic.'

The sound of crying Blue Ivy can be heard at the end of the song.

The track was produced by Pharrell and credits the new arrival as 'B.I.C.'

Other moving lyrics include: 'The most amazing feeling I feel, words can't describe what I'm feeling for real / Baby, I paint the sky blue, my greatest creation was you.

'You're the child of destiny / you're the child of my destiny / you're my child with the child from Destiny's Child.'

It's the first child for the power couple, who wed in 2008 in a private ceremony after a years-long courtship. Beyonce announced her pregnancy to the world last August at the MTV Video Music Awards with a simple rub of her swollen belly.

Celebs close to the couple have tweeted congrats. Beyonce's sister, Solange Knowles, tweeted Sunday morning: 'The most beautiful girl in the world,' while Beyonce's close friend Gwyneth Paltrow also tweeted: 'Welcome to the world Blue! We love you already.'

Meanwhile, it has emerged that the A-list couple have infuriated other new parents by enforcing a lockdown at the hospital where they had their first child together.

The pop superstars reportedly spent a staggering $1.3 million for pricey renovations to an exclusive recovery area at one of Manhattan's swankiest hospitals - including a bulletproof door to her room.

hey also have their own private security force working an area alongside hospital security already at Lenox Hill Hospital.

But other parents have bitterly complained that the intense measures have not just given privacy to the superstars and their baby - but made other new parents miss out on precious moments with their own newborns.

Fuming parents said they were essentially put on 'lockdown' so that the pampered songstress and her party could come and go as they pleased.

'They just used the hospital like it was their own and nobody else mattered,' blasted new dad Neil Coulon, who said his efforts to see his premature, newborn twins in the neonatal ICU were disrupted at least four times by the arrival of Beyonce and her crew.

Coulon - who is from Jay-Z's native Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn - said some of his relatives drove 4 1/2 hours to see his girls, only to be shunted aside for Beyonce.

'They locked us into the NICU and would say, "You can't come out to the hallway for the next 20 minutes." When I finally was able to go back out, I went to the waiting room and they'd ushered my family downstairs!

Beyonce Debuts New Videos -- And Her Wedding Dress!

Just because Beyoncé is cooling her heels as she awaits the birth of her first child with husband Jay-Z, that doesn't mean her musical career is on bed rest.

In fact, Lady B has just unleashed the seventh and eighth music videos from her 4 album, for the songs "End of Time" and "I Was Here."

Though they're not the high-concept clips Bey is typically known for, they are a nice sneak preview of the singer's upcoming "Live at Roseland" DVD, which will be on sale exclusively at Walmart starting November 21. The four-night stand of shows was taped at New York's Roseland Ballroom in August and featured a mix of old favorites and new songs from 4.

Woman claims Beyonce's father offered to buy her baby to give to Beyonce and Jay Z

.As we know there’s this big conspiracy that maybe Beyonce isn’t pregnant since her bump collapsed on TV and she seems to be either be busting out or looking non-pregnant from day to day. 

Well this latest story in Star Magazine is only going to fuel those “Beyonce is faking it” rumors - a lot. It’s Star Magazine, yes, but they got the known mother of Beyonce’s dad’s illegitimate baby to speak on the record. 

Alexsandra Wright had Mathew Knowles’ baby in February, 2010. She’s proven it with a paternity test and Mathew has been ordered to pay her for her child support and medical expenses. 

Well Wright told Star that Beyonce’s dad Mathew asked her to give up their baby to Beyonce and Jay-Z, who would raise it as their own. While Alexsandra never directly states that Beyonce and Jay-Z were going to pass off the baby as their own, Star says that was the plan. 

Alexsandra rejected that offer and vehemently insisted that she was going to raise the baby and wouldn’t accept any sum of money to hand him over. She thinks this whole plan was cooked up by Mathew alone to try and hide the baby, though, and that Beyonce and Jay-Z didn’t know about it.

Alexsandra Wright is speaking exclusively to Star about [Mathew Wright's] bizarre plan to have [Beyonce], 30, raise their love child as her own. 

“My first thought when he asked me if I would give up our child to Beyonce and Jay-Z was, ‘Are you out of your mind?’” says Alex, who delivered son Nixon Alexander Knowles Wright on Feb. 4, 2010, well after the 18-month affair had ended. 

“Nothing in the world, no amount of money, would make me give up my child. You can’t buy my child from me! “Maybe Mathew thought money could buy anything,” adds Alex, who says she recorded her conversation with Mathew. 

“I don’t know why he suggested it… “When he realized that it wasn’t going to happen, he offered me money to leave the Knowles name off the birth certificate… “Which was a hands-down, absolutely no deal here. Ever…”

Alex says she is still struggling to make sense of Mathew’s scheme to pass off their son as Beyonce and Jay-Z’s child. “I don’t believe that Beyonce or anything else has a clue what was flying out of Mathew’s mouth… I don’t think it was anybody but Mathew.”

Beyonce is building a 2,200 square foot nursery for her baby…

Why wouldn’t a baby need over 2,000 square feet to crawl around in, sure seems reasonable to us. Still if you’ve got obscene amounts of cash you may as well splash it in obscene ways. 

This “mega crib,” as it’s being dubbed, is going to be built in the pair’s NY home which is in Manhattan’s TriBeCa district. Some of the singer's pals don’t think it’s a very good idea though and have warned Beyonce (seen here out in NY yesterday, coincidently) against it.

A source told an American magazine this week: “Some people are like, "Won't you be scared to leave your baby in that huge room?,"' 

Why in case it wanders off and gets lost like a guinea pig? The only thing that’s in danger of happening in a room of that size is that the baby’s screams are going to be magnified twice over into some kind of booming echo, which won't be pleasant.

After a series of rumours circling around US singer Beyonce’s mysterious baby bump, the singer has finally reacted to the news. 

She did so through her publicist Yvette Noel-Schure who has waved down any possibility of the bump not being real. ‘It’s stupid, ridiculous and false’, Yvette Noel-Schure told ABC News. 

Ever since the 29-year-old singer showed off her baby bump at the MTV Awards in August, controversy has followed. 

Some suggest that B might be using a prosthetic and a surrogate is carrying her and husband Jay Z’s first child. 

A recent video has thrown the whole drama into more scrutiny as it shows the singer’s tummy fold while she appears on an Australian Talk Show

Beyonce accentuates her pregnant form in a figure-hugging dress after faux belly rumours

While most expectant mothers hide beneath unshapely maternity wear, Beyonce Knowles wants the world to see her growing tummy. 

The songbird stepped out in a black curve-hugging dress with a navy stripe that clung to her stomach to show off a blooming bump. 

As she ran errands in Manhattan, she didn't exactly dress for the rainy weather, but her bodyguard protected her hair and heels with an umbrella

Despite her changing body, the former Destiny's Child star looked effortlessly stunning and looked as though she was striding along the red carpet rather than a murky pavement. 

The public sighting comes just days after the RnB star was at the centre of claims she wore a fake bump for a television appearance. 

Her representatives quickly dismissed the reports as 'stupid, ridiculous and false' - but not before footage of her sporting an apparent 'squished' bump on Australian TV became a YouTube hit. 

The mother-to-be seems keen to show off her bump after speculation that she was sporting a fake one earlier this week. 

She proved her point yesterday during another rainy day in New York, stepping out in the Big Apple wearing a flowing snakeskin blouse which she teamed with black jeans, hat and vertiginous buckled boot heels.

While it may not be advisable for expectant mothers to totter along in tall shoes, the Run The World singer was clearly putting style before comfort.

It’s been rumored, but now we know: Beyonce and Jay-Z will become parents in February. The singer sat down to talk about her career and, of course, her pregnancy with Australia’s “Sunday Night” news program, where it was revealed that she’s due in February. 

“It has already changed my life. My husband and I have been together for 10 years, all of my twenties,” she said. “I just feel like it’s time and I’m very grateful that God has blessed me with the biggest gift any human being can have.” 

She also added she’s at the perfect point in her life and her career to expand her family with Jay. “I think because I’ve accomplished a lot of things for myself and I really know who I am, I didn’t rush into anything,” she said about getting pregnant.”

If it’s any time, right now is the time, and I’m so happy.” The positively glowing Beyonce told the world she’s expecting not through a written statement, but by showing off her baby bump on the carpet at the MTV VMAs in August, and again on stage while performing her song, “Love on Top,” with her proud husband looking on from the crowd. 

And ever since the big reveal, Beyonce has been proudly showing off her growing belly in bikinis, on the red carpet and, most recently, out shopping with Jay and pal Kanye West.

Belgian Choreographer Calls Beyonce a 'Thief'

The Belgian choreographer Beyonce used as 'inspiration' for her Countdown video calls Beyonce's use of her piece plagiarism. 

In an interview with Belgian radio station, Studio Brussel, choreographer Anne Teresa Keersmaeker was asked how she felt about Beyonce copying her work and she replied, “I didn’t know anything about this. 

I’m not mad, but this is plagiarism. This is stealing. They took pieces from Achterland and Rosas danst Rosas. Including the dresses and a remake of the school of Van de Velde. It’s a bit rude, I must say. 

What’s rude about it is that they don’t even bother about hiding it. They seem to think they could do it because it’s a famous work.” “Am I honoured? Look, I’ve seen local school kids doing this. That’s a lot more beautiful.”

Kelly Rowland 'Excited' To Be Beyonce Baby's 'Auntie

Kelly Rowland is thrilled that her sister in life and music, Beyoncé Knowles, is pregnant with her first child — but that doesn't mean K.Ro's ready to take on 40 weeks of morning sickness, strange cravings and swollen feet. 

I'm so happy for her and her husband [Jay-Z] and just excited to be an auntie — part two. First it was Julez," Rowland told MTV News, referring to Solange Knowles' 6-year-old, when we caught up with her on her tour bus during the New York leg of Chris Brown's F.A.M.E. Tour. "Now it's a new baby on the rise; it's gonna to be so exciting.

But when we suggested Kelly might be the next to bare a bump on MTV's VMA stage, the onetime "Destiny's Child" diva nearly spilled the blue plastic cup of post-concert something-something she had been sipping. "Kids!? Unh-unh," she laughed, tucking a jumpsuit-clad leg firmly underneath her as a towering pair of heels lay on the floor of the warmly lit bus.

I'll help take care of my 'sister' and her husband's baby first. I'm not ready for babies yet. I can watch them take care of this little baby." Still, Rowland said she'd have no problem pitching in on diaper duty when the superstar couple needed to get away for one of their well-documented date nights. 

Whether they're sharing a plate at Nello's in NYC or heading to Brooklyn to cheer on the Nets, B and Hov can count on Kelly. "I get to babysit, yes," she smiled. "It's a wonderful moment," the "Motivation" singer added. "I just saw my sister today, and I got a chance to rub her tummy.

Beyonce discusses pregnancy and her new fragrance

Now that Beyonce is pregnant, there are certain smells that turn her stomach. "My nose, I smell everything from a mile away," Beyonce said during an interview with The Associated Press while wearing a long, flowing purple dress, her baby bump showing. 

Usually it is food, it is onions or something that I just can't tolerate." Her new fragrance is not one of them. On Wednesday, Beyonce was busy promoting Pulse, her third scent. For the creator of girl-power anthems like "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" and "Run the World (Girls)," Pulse represents another extension of that theme.

I always meet strong, powerful women and they always have a signature scent," the 30-year-old said. "That is one of the first things I was so proud of. I thought about Diamonds and Elizabeth Taylor and all these icons, so I am so proud of this."

How is this fragrance different from your others?

Beyonce: This is very fresh. This is all about citrus, but it also has vanilla in the back. It is important for me for a fragrance not to just smell like one thing. I think women are interesting and I don't like for you to be like, "Ok, this smells like this.

I like for it to be something signature and something that brings out your inner beauty and your confidence and makes you feel like you leave a long-lasting impression on someone. 

Your recent fashion show in London (with mother Tina Knowles for House of Dereon) was about empowerment. This scent is about empowerment. Why is that important to you? 

I just enjoy being a woman and especially right now, I just feel so empowered. I think that is sort of my place in the world, for people to see that you can be an entrepreneur. You can have goals and dreams and you can grow and be strong and have your strong opinions, and all of these things bring that out in you.

Does pregnancy make you feel more empowered?

Absolutely. It is the most powerful creation for you to be able to have life growing inside of you. There is no bigger gift, nothing more empowering.

You have the fragrance, the clothing line, a husband, career and a baby on the way. What is next on your bucket list?

I am still working on balance and still growing. I am starting my company, my label. I want to create a boy band. I want to continue to produce and do documentaries and music videos. I eventually want to start directing for other artists. Once I know that I have my stuff together and I trust that, I can do it for other artists. 

I see so many male artists building these empires and passing their knowledge on to other artists and development. I see myself doing the same thing and hopefully other younger artists when they grow up and they have been around for 15, 20 years, they can do the same thing. 

What advice have you gotten from your mother and sister on motherhood? 

I have the best examples around me because my sister is the most incredible mother. My mother, I am so proud of her. I see her and I could cry every time I think about her because she is such an incredible woman, so I just pray that I have the same bond with my children, child. 

Will the baby go everywhere with you?

Yes, I will probably be that way. I am sure I will. I think that it shouldn't stop you. I think of course my life is going to change, and I definitely will make sacrifices, but you know, I think I will be able to bring hopefully my little rider with me.

You are doing an appearance for the perfume where you will be with your fans. What does it mean to you to be able to interact with them like that? 

I have the best fans. They are so passionate and so loyal. I want to give them everything. I always get excited when I do the meet-and-greets because I get to really shake hands and look people in the eye and really see the impact that I have been able to have in people's lives, because sometimes you don't really get to see it.

When I get to meet people and they tell me their stories and I feel their spirits, it makes me feel like my job and all of the hard work is worth it.

 You are pregnant but work nonstop. How do you keep your energy up? 

I think it is just passion. When you are excited about something, you don't have to think about your energy. It is natural and comes from adrenaline. It is important that I don't look at this as like an illness. I am not sick. I am the same woman and I have the same passions

What is your pregnancy style? 

I think I have been trying to find things that of course are flattering to the silhouette. I think a woman's curves when she is pregnant are so beautiful. I don't want to get matronly, and I still find things that are sensual and feminine and funky.

 I have been mixing different textures and suit jackets and blazers. I don't want to be in the same dress every day.
