Probable because many people are expecting Jay-Z and Beyonce' wedding, especially when there are money involved, as sports gambling website accepted bets about when the celebrity couple would get married and even the sex of their baby in October of last year.

The R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles has vowed to help Whitney Houston beat her addiction to crack cocaine and wrote to the pop diva to offer her support. According to Britain's Daily Star newspaper, Beyonce was horrified by reports that the pop diva Whitney Houston is reportedly hooked on crack and spiralling hopelessly out of control and believes that in this moment she need her friends by around her and she will stick by her. Whitney Houston discovered Beyonce when she was in Destiny's Child and helped write and produce many of her tracks.
The R&B celebrity Beyonce isn't the only star to want to help Whitney, as last week Mary J. Blige said she praying for the troubled diva.
According to MediaTakeOut.com in an exclusive interview with one of Jay Z’s "friends" - who spoke to them on the condition of anonymity - it was revealed that the loved Celebrity couple Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z have split after a 5 year relationship. The reason was quite obvious, Hip-Hop mogul Jay-Z (38 years old) wanted, for some time now, to settle down and have a family while Beyonce (and her family) did not. Apparently they remain good friends, they are very much in love - as the insider reveals - and things could get back on track. Hopefully we will soon have an official statement about whether is true or not.
[from thecelebrityblog.com][Jay Z]’s not 25 - he’s been ready to settle down and have a family for a while now. But Beyonce was asking him for more time. It got to the point where [Jay Z] was constantly pressuring her and it wasn’t good for the relationship … So they both decided that it would be best if they just stayed as friends.
Beyonce’s family was completely against her getting married. They’re cool with [Jay Z] and all … they just felt that he was a little too serious for her at this point in her life. And at this point in her career.
They still love each other and they’re still good friends so you can’t expect them to just cut things off completely … For now, it’s over. But who knows what might happen in a couple of months.

The R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles will probably have to re-shoot her newest video for the single ‘Deja Vu’, the first single from the R&B singer’s upcoming album ‘B’Day’. It seems like Colombia Records - Beyonce’s label - received a petition signed by more the 3000 people in which, the fans ask for the re-shoot of R&B singer’s newest video ‘Deja Vu’.
According to this petition, the new video of the R&B celebrity should be taken off the air due to ‘poor editing and unacceptable interactions between Beyonce and her boyfriend Jay-Z’. The petition also mentions that the video is ‘an under-whelming representation of the talent and quality of previous music video projects of Ms. Knowles’ and that it has ‘no clear story or theme’.

It was really private, and not overbearing. And this is True Star Gold.

R&B celebrity Beyonce Knowles insists wearing bling accessories has lost its appeal, no more jewellers creations for her. Beyonce's £1.3m ring that Jay-Z bought her for her last birthday is one of the gems she's lost, and doesn't want to take responsibility for the financial repercussions. It seems Beyonce has a habit of losing the jewellery a reason more for her not to be attracted by diamonds.
On the other side, although Beyonce - who is in love with rapper Jay-Z - admits she's not ready to be a mum just yet.
I think the thrill has gone. I wear so many and I am careless and I don't want to be responsible if I lose it. I've lost way too much stuff.

- said R&B star Beyonce -
Its not a secret the fact that the Beyonce Knowles is already thinking about her bridesmaids, two of her best friends - R&B singers Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams will join her at the altar.
However, while the R&B celebrity might be seriously considering getting married, she's not sure she wants kids just yet. So first the wedding and when who knows? Anyway if she and her rapper Jay-Z are not sure about this step, they should wait a little longer... I really want them to be happy.
I didn't want to be in the delivery room (for Solange's birth)... but I was moved by the experience, so it didn't make me not want to have kids. I babysat for my nephew last week and it's not as glamorous as it looks.
