B and Jay-Z to Marry this Fall?
 
This was worth its own thread. $3 Million dollars? I wonder if she will get the fury Star received for her lavish production. :confused:

YAY for them!!!!!

Too bad her dad isn't giving his blessing though. :(

jitterbug13 08-29-2006 01:43 PM

The story in Star said that her dad did give his blessing. I remember hearing him on the radio last year and he had nothing but nice things to say about Jay.

As for the wedding, I believe it when the offical word come out (through B, Jay or both) and the pics are published in People.

I don't trust this article but I do think they are planning to marry one day.

time will tell

jojapeach 08-29-2006 07:46 PM

If it's true, great, but I'm not putting much stock into Stuff. :rolleyes:

I just don't like Be "yawn"ce. Anyone notice how she's kind of coppin' Kelis' style? Hmmmm.....

teena 08-29-2006 10:09 PM

I still think Jay z is a pedophile for messing with someone her age. I think it would be a huge mistake for her.

Gina1201 08-29-2006 11:57 PM

As y'all probably figured I won't believe it till I see it.

She's legal (she'll be 25 this month)...so why/how is he a pedophile...


I do (from a friend of mine who is former promoter of his) know that he is a big player...he sleeps with many women or has in his past and then brags about it...Wonder if this "happy couple" is really "happy"

mulattogyrl 08-30-2006 08:58 AM

If it's true, I say good for them!! Do what makes you happy.

2Tuff2Quit 08-30-2006 01:52 PM

After just seeing that Ring the Alarm video...and yes I think she is talking about Jay-Z. I don't believe that they are getting married, or atleast that he proposed to her. I think she looks like the type to tell him that they are getting married, and he just go along with it for now, but if this is true I don't see them going through with it. I don't know here lately it seems like Jay-Z may be getting tired of Be"yawn"ce from all of the 'stories' of him and Rhianna and them getting into fights and all that good stuff....so I don't know...we'll see:o

RedefinedDiva 08-30-2006 03:47 PM

Ok, I may look at it differently, but I just think that most people are trying to discredit their relationship. Beyonce looks happy. Jay looks happy. They appear to be in love. That's all people need to worry about. If they like it, I love it..... Why can't people just be happy when folks are in love? There is always some wild, cockamamie, UNSUBSTANTIATED story targeted to tear people down.

When folks start rolling through with some proof, then I'll believe it. Until then, I'll be looking for my wedding invitation. :D

Just saw the video on youtube.com and I think she's talking about HOVA. At one point she sings. "not the picture perfect story..." and throws up the Roc-A-Fella "diamond symbol". :cool: And why are her videos in this nervous breakdown mode? I thought that she was quoted as saying that she was not going to be like Lauryn Hill and "snap". Hmmm...she'slooks like she's on her way. Lord, I hope she doesn't pull a Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes (r.i.p.) move and burn the man's house down!:eek:

You know I had to rewind it because I thought she was throwin' up something else....:cool:
ETA: Don't you ladies of DST think that the "diamond" is a little too close to the pyramid? I remember when McDonald's came out with those chicken sanwich commercials and the people were throwing up the pinkies, I was like :eek: )

AKA2D '91 08-31-2006 10:58 AM

SUPPOSEDLY, the songs from B'Day are inspired by her DreamGirls' character. So, all of the unstable antics derive from her. :confused: I guess, if that's what she wants us to believe.

I dunno. I don't know why, but I've had this feeling that Jay-Z is on the other team. :confused: :o

AKA2D '91 08-31-2006 11:16 AM

I'm not saying he is. However, something just isn't right. :confused:

tenacity0617 09-07-2006 03:22 PM

I agree. There is a strong possibility that she is referencing her relationship. Truth be told, there are several tracks on her cd (especially the one after Ring the Alarm) that make you say hmmmmmmm!
B was on GMA this morning & she said that there were several tracks that she - get this - secretly produced, and NOT even her own manager/father knew of... hummmm. I would like to check out that cleanse she did with molasses syrup which attributed to her 25lb weight loss.

At least she kept it real when she wrote, "She gon' be rockin' chinchilla coats
If I let you go... Get in the house off the coast...If I let you go...She gon' take everything I own If I let you go...I can't let you go, damn if I let you go

Still BLUTANG 09-07-2006 03:42 PM

I like jay and bee together. they're not cute but they seem real with it. i hope it works out... i believe in black love.

A co-worker of mine did it too. It's incredibly unhealthy and very temporary. Its really a last resort type of thing.

tenacity0617 09-07-2006 04:14 PM

About 4 years ago, a male friend of mine swore by this and actually did loose alot of weight. Its suppose to detox you or something, but, as with any other quick fix diet, the draw back is crazy if you dont do maintenence. I had the recipie pinned on my wall at work for years but I cant find it!!. Something with molasses & cayenne pepper. Let me know if you can get the link to it. Thanks.

If you mix anything with cayenne pepper will make your stomach fall out!!:eek: I believe in eating healthy (at times) and enjoying yourself. She out to know that southern gals are thick anyway. Our bodies are meant to have curves. If she looses too much, she'll start looking like a tootsie roll pop like Oprah did when she lost all that weight!

Beyonce's diet
 
To make the infamous lemonade drink, simply follow these instructions:

2 Tablespoons lemon juice or lime juice
2 Tablespoons real maple syrup
1/10 Teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 oz water


Combine the first three ingredients in a jar, add water and shake.

I hope this helps those who were seeking information.

Here is the article text on Black Voices:
By Christine Mangan, BlackDoctor.org

Known for her curvaceous figure, Beyonce has made recent headlines with her suddenly slimmed down look. She is nearly twenty pounds lighter after losing the weight for her role in the upcoming movie, ‘Dreamgirls,' a feat that only took her a matter of weeks to accomplish. It’s a piece of news that has left fans of the now svelte actress puzzling, ‘What’s the secret to Beyonce’s skinny success?’

With various reports claiming that she lost the weight by drinking water spiked with cayenne pepper, it looks as though Beyonce followed the Master Cleanse Diet to shed those extra pounds. Also known as the Lemonade Diet, this diet plan was created by Stanley Burroughs over 50 years ago. Designed to cleanse the body by ridding it of toxins, a happy side effect of this now popular diet includes losing weight, though this was not its original intention. And while some diets curb your sugar and fat intake, and others advise you to stay away from carbs, the Lemonade Diet requires abstaining from food altogether. That’s right. A complete fast is the key factor in this ten to forty day diet. In fact, the only thing followers are allowed to put in their bodies is water. And not just any old water. It has to be water mixed with lemon, maple syrup and cayenne pepper

Burroughs’ diet has picked up many devotees over the years, despite skepticism from the medical community. Instructed to drink six to twelve glasses of lemonade throughout the day, fans of the unique cleansing experience claim that it can also help to cure a number of ailments. This includes those classified as mucus diseases, such as allergies, asthma and the flu. Skin disorders and cholesterol are also wiped away by this not-so-typical fast. But it’s not as simple as it sounds. A whole host of problems can accompany this diet, including dizziness and, in severe cases, even vomiting. But the diet claims that this is not due to any lack of vitamins, as the lemonade provides everything that the body needs. It is simply a matter of all the poisons now circulating in the bloodstream. To counter feelings of sickness, the diet recommends drinking a laxative tea, which helps to stimulate bowel movements.

Once you’ve lost those pounds you’ve been longing to shed, don’t expect to go on a food binge the very next day. Easing back into whole food is a somewhat slow process. After the first and second day, dieters are restricted to several 8 oz glasses of orange juice. The third day includes more orange juice, as well as a bit of raw fruit for lunch and some raw fruit and vegetables for dinner. After the third day, you’re ready to eat normally again. Though, of course, the diet recommends continuing on with the lemonade drink for breakfast and limiting yourself to a fruit, vegetable, seed and berry diet in the future

Ok...please correct me if I'm wrong. For the diet, all you do is drink lemonade all day, no food. Then, you drink a laxative to help you "drop the kids off". This is just my personal opinion, but I think that sickness feeling comes from not eating all day for several days at a time. I mean, come on. Sometimes I go all day without eating due to being busy and I get light-headed just from that! This diet sounds like when I get sick and can't hold any food down, I can't eat for days and subsequently lose a lot of weight. This sounds the exact same. Stuff coming out but not going in :( Not healthy. I swear I hope I never have to diet b/c I just couldn't do it. I love stuffing my face with fatty foods. And I bet you my Potbelly's sandwich today tasted better than her lemonade ;)

tenacity0617 09-08-2006 09:23 AM

That is it - the Burrough's diet & I will use it for xactly that - cleansing (it couldnt be any worse than casgara sagrada). Especially when I dont have 60 bucks for my next colonic session. Thanks for the feedback!

BabyBlue91 09-08-2006 07:52 PM

My husband did the Master Cleanse earlier this year. He doesn't weight himself so he doesn't know how he did. But I agree with an earlier post that with any diet maintenance is key.

Totally agree. I still think they are a hideous couple.

PrettyGirl03 09-12-2006 10:32 AM

Beyonce' mentioned that her cd was the result of stories from women around her.

It's surprising she and Jay lasted this long. If they do get married, I hope it lasts even longer. They both seem very happy: she has a man that adores her and he has a beautiful and business-minded woman who stands by his side.

ProceedwFaith 09-13-2006 10:46 AM

Well, it took them long enough. I'm all for it and I hope they defy the statistics of the typical hollywood marriage.

If this is true, then maybe "Ring the Alarm" may have been about more than just Beyonce. It could've also been about Momma Knowles when Poppa Knowles was "doing him" whenever he felt like it. That's JMO.....

Congrats to Bey-Z. I've always sensed that Beyonce was a person who didn't share her private life too often. That leads to having too many cooks in the kitchen and too much interference from outside parties.

Maybe Ring the Alarm is dedicated to Mama Hova :confused:

Cali_Keisha 09-18-2006 12:06 PM

I heard that Jay-Z cheated on Beyonce with Rhianna (the SOS song girl) and they won't play the Ring the Alarm song on the radio because she said that it was about her. Also if anyone has the CD listen to song #10 Resentment. In that song Beyonce is pouring out her heart, you can feel the pain in her voice.

I hear Ring the Alarm on the radio all the time....

As far as I'm concerned, B pours her heart out on all of her songs. The girl can sing!

I don't really listen to the radio, so I'm not sure if it is true, or maybe in certain areas. Did anyone hear the Rhianna story?

Are you talking about the Rhianna story where she is supposedly in a love triangle with B and Jov?


If so I think I heard about that but its more speculation than anything else. If its true Beyonce shouldnt feel threatened at all.

BlessedOne04 09-21-2006 09:05 PM

Jay Z better not be cheating with Rhianna or he will be singing SOS from jail!

Yes Soror...finally someone is seeing what I see...Ring the Alarm sounds more like it was inspired by Kelis's song Caught Out There from the 2001 Kaleidiscope Album http://www.lyricsstyle.com/k/kelis/caughtoutthere.html. Kelis screams in that song, Beyonce screams in Ring the Alarm but I'm sure its coincidence.
And isn't it funny how Beyoncé was quoted as saying, “LeToya was tone-deaf” after the 1st Destiny's Child split and now LeToya Luckett has one of the top selling albums (one that I own and absolutely love) in the country...not bad for a tone deaf girl. I've always maintained that the soulful sound DC had back in 1999 was because of the other members, none of the later DC work sounds anything like Writings on the Wall...and Kelly is a better singer.
As Far as the Jayonce union...if they get married Great all the more good looking and unquestionably straight brothas left in the world...her gain is my gain:)

MsSweetness 10-02-2006 04:33 PM

I like Beyonce's cd. She tore that song "Resentment" up. I love it. I also like Letoya's cd although I haven't heard the entire thing.

I also remember when she said Letoya was tone deaf lmao!! It was probably immaturity talking. Letoya is so pretty, I always thought she was the prettiest in the group.

I need B to leave her mama at home whenever she goes on interviews. Her parents needs to be cut off.
