Reports that Beyonce and Jay-Z paid $1.3 million to shut down an entire floor of the Lenox Hill Hospital for their baby's birth added fuel to the rumor fire. According to reports, hospital staff had their cell phones taken away, security cameras were covered up and bodyguards patrolled the hallways and wouldn't even let parents visit their children in the neonatal intensive care unit.

    Rumors are swirling online that Beyonce and Jay-Z's baby, born Saturday at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan, was actually born to a surrogate. The star debuted her baby bump on Aug. 28 at the MTV Video Music Awards, setting a Twitter record around the announcement. At the time, Beyonce was about three months along -- the standard time when pregnant couples announce a little one is on the way. Since then, Beyonce was unlike most expectant moms, shunning comfortable flats and loose clothes for sky-high platforms and figure-hugging outfits. But in October, footage of a TV interview in Australia led to speculation that the diva was wearing a prosthetic. Either way, Blue Ivy Carter was born on Jan. 7 at a healthy 7 pounds.

    If Beyonce was indeed three months along when she announced her pregnancy at the MTV Video Music Awards in late August, that would make her due date in late February, or thereabouts. That would make Blue Ivy Carter about a month or so early, but if she was indeed born at a healthy 7 pounds, that would make a premature birth unlikely. (credit: Jason Merritt/Getty Images)

    What really made people believe Beyonce was faking her pregnancy was the suspicious way her dress folds up in the middle as she sits down during this Australian interview in October 2011. However, her method of sitting versus the fold seems to be the true suspect -- most pregnant woman balance themselves with both hands on armrests, if they are available, and lower themselves backwards.

    Mike MoranDecember 10, 2008 at 4:18 pmExcellent pontis, Kyle. So many people want to jump into social media and start the sell, sell, sell. Just as when you first walk into any community, you need to listen before you engage. Reply

    Pam O’NealDecember 10, 2008 at 9:05 amGreat post Kyle. It stikres me that listening is just as critical to social networking as it is to any good personal relationship. And, by listening carefully and using automation tools to filter the noise, its pretty easy to stumble upon a number of great opportunities for business relationships.Thanks again for the post.

    This is, wuhtoit a doubt, the most awful, heartfelt rendition of “O Holy Night” that I’ve ever heard. I’m a reasonably respectable tenor, and my dangly bits tried to retract themselves at the sound of that high note. My cats and dogs fled in utter terror and agony. It doesn’t get much better than that. Thank you for sharing!

    I’m amazed, I must say. Rarely do I come across a blog that’s equally educative and engaging, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. Now i’m very happy that I came across this during my hunt for something relating to this.
