Gossip: Beyoncé
Is the singer faking her pregnancy?
Rumors that Beyoncé is faking her pregnancy spread last week after the singer’s baby bump appeared to deflate when she seated herself on an Australian talk show, said RadarOnline.com. The suggestion that she was wearing padding added to rumors that she and husband Jay-Z have hired a surrogate to have their child, which is due in February. A rep for Beyoncé called the fake-baby-bump rumors “stupid, ridiculous, and false.”
