[BlindGossip] There’s a lot of money to be made in pregnancy. If you’re already famous, your public profile skyrockets even higher. You’ve got heat. You get more cover photos, more interview requests, more gossip column inches, more talk show appearances. You can expand your own product lines, as well as shill for products that were previously just out of your childless reach. Because, once you’re seen as a mother, you can add paragon of selflessness and motherhood and traditional family values to your resume. Even if you’re the most vain and selfish human being on the planet.
Yes, there’s a lot of money to be made in pregnancy. Even if you’re not as pregnant as you’re pretending to be. Even if you’re not pregnant at all.

Beyawnce. period.
Made me think of beyonces folding bump on that interview recently. Apparently there’s bikini pics of her belly though. I haven’t seen them…
The bikini pics could just be from adding a little extra weight and “pushing it” a little to look pregnant.
Very interesting. Could it be….. Beyonce?
There’s been buzz that Beyonce is faking her pregnancy, but there have been photos of her in a bikini, so she definitely looks pregnant to me. I would rule Bey out.
Jessica Simpson?
Hilary Duff?
Beyonce
Beyonce
Beyonce…no question!
I’m gonna go w/ Beyonce.
Don’t think it’s Beyonce but who knows anymore. Seems like everyone is hiding something these days.
Beyonce! Everyone is talking about her pillow baby collapsing on TV.
Beyonce, there’s a lot of speculation her belly is fake and that the size of it keeps changing.
This can’t be Jessica because she hasn’t officially come out as being pregnant and I don’t think that she’s ever been described as being vain or the most selfish human being on the planet. Now Beyoncé who is fake pregnant at the moment is coming out with a line of clothing for pregnant women and it’s not a stretch to call her vain and selfish. I might not say she’s the most selfish person on the planet but I’m sure she’s working hard at it.
Although I’m not sure why her public profile would need to skyrocket any higher…but my guess is Beyonce. The initial timing of it being the right time to announce her pregnancy at the Mtv Video Music Awards was quite “perfect”, perhaps coincidence yes, but every time I see her she just seems far “too” pregnant for only being x weeks/months along at the time. This is her first pregnancy and with my first I didn’t really start showing until I was quite far along, the same with ALL my friends (subsequent pregnancies a whole different story though). Plus there’s that video showing her sitting down for an interview (looking HUGELY preggo btw, even though at the time she’d only have been about 4 mos if that) and her whole belly folds up while she’s bending over. There were also lots of rumors about trouble in her marriage…a baby helps squash all that.
Plus something about the title of the blind “The Business of” makes me think of Jay-Z being a “business man” as much as he is a rapper and his “Unfinished Business” collaboration with R. Kelly.
That said, I quite love Beyonce & Jay-Z as a couple, so I do hope it’s not them pulling these kinds of shenanigans!
What about Beyonce? There are so many diff stories/pics surfacing regarding her bump.. Which I personally think is intrusive.
intrusive? when you use the media to announce your pregnancy at an award ceremony with millions of people watching what do you expect? if you exploit the media be ready for the consequence. you can’t eat your cake and have it at the same time. she could have kept it quiet but don’t come and fool us, she asked for it.
Happy Friday ya’ll. I am going to say Beyonce with the folding baby belly for $500….lol
Beyonce?
My guess is Beyonce.
Beyonce
I think BG revealed that JSimps is pregnant though…
Beyonce?
Beyonce
BeyBey?
Bey-bey and her “baby”!
I should amend my comment: I believe she is pregnant, but not as pregnant as she is pretending to be…
beyonce?
Beyonce?
Beyonce
What about Beyonce and those supposed pictures of her belly folding? It seems silly, but so is much of Hollywood. And I’ll agree with Gmonger with Jessica Simpson as a second guess. Both she and Beyonce have lucrative clothing empires to promote.
BEYONCE, BEYONCE, and BEYONCE
Beyonce
Between her collapsing fake baby bump and just this week announcing that she’s designing a line of maternity clothes, this has to be Beyonce. Her self-serving and phony conduct re the whole having a baby thing has really turned me off to her to be honest.
I totally didn’t want to believe all the belly padding hype, but, damn…
I wonder what the deal is. Jay Z get someone else pregnant? Bey didn’t want to lose her figure so hired a surrogate?
Scandalous.
its beyonce!! with her FOLDED over belly photos! haha,,, busted Bey.
God I love this site!
taters
First poster!!!!
Beyonce….there has been an incredible amount of speculation regarding her folding baby bump from a recent Australian telle appearance.
Welcome, Bliss! Love, BG
Beyonce for sure
Beyonce and the folding baby bump.
I think that this is probably meant to be Beyonce, but who knows?
Vain and selfish sounds more like Beyonce than J-Simp. Plus, Beyonce allegedly is launching a line of maternity wear.
I don’t see this as Jessica Simpson who’s raking in millions upon millions with her lines, according to Forbes. Beyonce neither who made nearly 300 million over the past 4 years, also according to Forbes.
I’ll go with the scheming January Jones and her unnamed father birth certificated baby. Or Kate “put on front street by her own father” Hudson.
so juicy! I’m thinking it might be someone married, due to the wedding ring in the pic.
this has to be beyonce, there is a lot of talk on her fake baby bump on the internet, and she is also going to be doing a line of maternity wear.
Beyonce is pregnant, isn’t she?
Beyonce & the fake belly?
Beyonce?
I’m going with Beyonce on this one. Especially with the video that surfaced of her “bump” collapsing and the rumors that she is faking a pregancy.
I agree. She must have an adoption in the works.
Beyonce? Rumours are circulating that her baby bump is fake, given how it deflated when she sat down for an interview.
Beyonce?
Beyonce?
Say my name, say my name…
Beyonce, Can you handle this?
I don’t think they can handle this whoooo!
Beyonce?
Is this about Beyonce?
Beyonce???
It’s Beyonce!
BEYONCE! It made me sick when I heard she was coming out with a line of maternity clothes. God forbid she has a month or two go by without making as much money as she possibly can…..GREEDY BEYONCE.
Beyonce: She said she is starting a maternity line.
Beyonce. Jessica Simpson is getting fuller all over – you can see it in her face – which makes me think she really is pregnant.
Also, “Heat” is Beyonce’s fragrance!
Beyonce is not as pregnant as she is pretending to be.
Beyonce “frisbee baby” Knowles
Bey
Beyonce
I love that she has been totally busted. Of course she’ll never admit it…
Also, it is very apparent that she is wearing a prosthetic in that picture of her in the bikini. If you look closely, you can see a rim along the bottom of her ‘belly’.
I’m going with Beyonce! The quote “Even if you’re not as pregnant as you’re pretending to be” makes me think of her interview this week when her belly seemed to deflate as she was going to sit on the interview chair:o)
Beyonce!
Kinda off topic, but I always thought Nicole Kidman faked her pregnancies…just got that vibe.
The way Beyonce’s baby bump folded up in that recent interview, I’d say it’s her.
Juicy! J-Simp is a good guess, but the wedding rings in the picture make me think that the woman is married already. So maybe Beyonce? Unless Kim K announces hers soon.
Dare I say it? … Beyonce?
Im going with Beyonce. There’s been a lot of rumors she’s faking her pregnancy.
first time poster! I’m going with Beyonce.
Welcome, Pixy! Love, BG
Isn’t Beyonce’s perfume called Heat? She has always struck me as a selfish and unpleasant person.
could this be bey????
What about Beyonce? There was that controversy a few days ago about her pregnant stomach sort of looking like it was “folding in” when she sat down during that interview. Did anyone else see that?
Beyonce. She has already announced a children’s line.
Beyonce.
I have to add that the ring in the picture just pops out at you. Makes me think of her Shoulda Put A Ring On It dong.
Beyonce because:
“You can expand your own product lines”: isn’t she thinking about adding a pregnancy maternity line to her heinous fashion label?
“Even if you’re the most vain and selfish human being on the planet”: there was a blind on Laineygossip about a superstar who was in a Maybach and she wanted to go eat her lunch at her fav restaurant but a road blockage due to an ambulance tending to an old woman prevented it, she wanted to get the ambulance removed and was angry because the policeman put her in her place. It was revealed to be Beyonce. B is a superdiva and I don’t think she’s nice at all. The celebs who try to be as nice as possible are most of the time the biggest douchebags and bitches.
There is a lot of speculation about B’s pregnancy and I tend to think she uses padding to enhance the effect. She keeps blabbing about it and is all sanctimonious about it like G. Paltrow. People seem to forget her latest album is a flop.
I don’t think it’s J. Simpson because she doesn’t bother with issuing a statement. It seems like she is trying to ignore the press and keep them guessing even though it’s obvious she’s pregnant. She isn’t milking it and she’s hiding her bump under ill-fitting, unflattering clothes. And vain? No, she eats too much and enjoys her liquor too much to care for her looks. She’s a slob, a pretty one, but still a slob…
Who is BEYONCE!!!!!!! Ftw alex!!!!!
someone please explain then beyonces bikini pics? are they fake then?
You must be new to this site. LOL!
Hilary Duff……
Third X poster. I dunno if the the $$$ is a clue… but it amounts to 30. Isn’t B 30?
Do they? You mean the dollar bills in the picture?
Gotta go with Seacrest here.
bey, remember she did not allow Lady Gaga into her room at vma. That one could have touched her belly to feel for the baby, just human instinct and joy for a fellow gal being pregnant. The sit-down “fold” gave Bey away. She outsmarts herself!!
hmmm, Beyonce doesn’t need the $$ nor does she need the noriety..Jessica looks pregnant but has not announced it..
Hilary Duff
I beleive Beyonce is pregnant, just not as pregnant as she wants us to think. The Croatia pics were skin and I think she will do a nude baby bump shot soon to prove it to the non beleivers. Beyonce’s stomach is normally flat almost sunk in–so I beleive those pics.
THIS is a tough call, who else is preganant supposedly?
Definitely Beyonce. There’s a rumor floating that her former assistant, Janet, has moved to 5-star digs in Bermuda and is 3 months pregnant and that she is carrying Beyonce’s child for her. I remember reading an interview years ago when Beyonce first went solo that quoted Kelly Rowland and some other long-forgotten names talking about Bey being very concerned about her body and gaining weight, and spending hours on the treadmill as a result. I can totally see her using a surrogate at this point in her career.
What’s more, consider this: she and Jay-Z hid their engagement and marriage forever. She wore a glove in the “Single Ladies” video hiding the tattoo she got on her ring finger, as well as her actual wedding ring. She and Jay-Z have always been incredibly private…and now that she has a flopping album, she is all of a sudden pregnant and eager to do as many appearances as possible talking about both that and her relationship with Jay-Z? I don’t buy it. The new clothing line is suspect…the timing is all suspect. It seems like she is concerned about her career following multiple crappy singles off the new album. Aside from the Australian appearance (anyone who has been pregnant knows it’s impossible for a real bump to fold–come on), several urban gossip sites have recent pictures of her showing virtually no bump at all. The bikini pictures are easily faked – her suit covered the upper and lower borders of her belly, which appears much smaller than the belly she had on MTV anyway. Anyone who saw the fake bump of Paz de la Huerta on Boardwalk Empire this last week knows that makeup artists have come a long way with fake bumps, and the way you stand has a lot to do with it. Those pics were ultra-staged.
Anyway, not to go on about this, but I was just discussing this with my hairdresser this morning. As for J. Simp, she appears to be trying to stay out of the columns and won’t even confirm the pregnancy. Her clothing/shoe/bag empire is worth $750 million and she makes a killing–she’s not worried about her career. I absolutely believe she’s pregnant.
Well said,brrcam!
Thanks Eva! For all you non-believers on whether it is possible that Beyonce’s bikini belly was fake, check this out:
[please fully explain link]
Sorry BG…this is HBO’s explanation of how they were able to take Paz de la Huerta (tiny, not pregnant) and shoot her fully nude (and from all angles) for “Boardwalk Empire” appearing to be very, very pregnant:
http://entertainment.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/10/13/howd-they-do-that-making-paz-de-la-huerta-nude-and-pregnant/?test=faces
Much better. Thanks, Brr! Love, BG
YES. Absolutely agree with brrcam. Beyonce has rubbed me the wrong way for a long time (pun intended). I think her success has been expertly timed and manipulated and she has stepped on a ton of people along the way. But the worst thing is her constant bragging, her constant self-promotion…it’s so grating. The woman has no humility whatsoever.
Here’s what I wonder: Her assistant who is pregnant: is it Bey’s egg? Because I doubt that as well. To do that, the woman has to go through a difficult surgery which I doubt Bey would do. I wonder if JayZ got the assistant pregnant (via cheating) and Bey has decided to do the best she can with this situation.
Beyonce never had an assistant named Janet. Her only other assistant was her cousin Angie who stepped down some years ago. She also never hid her marriage or engagement, it was never announced. She and Jay got their ring finger tattoos in 2007 and Single Ladies came out in late 2008 after they were married.
Maybe Beyonce ought to call Katie Holmes for ‘pregnancy pillow’ advice.
hmmm, is there a reason Jess has announced her pregnancy??
cause she is NOT?? but wants to capatilize off of the hoopla..
yeah, I may have my answer.
Tru Tru, did you mean, hasn’t announced? I haven’t heard of one yet.I know a lot of women get super excited and want to tell everyone they see. I was like that the first time.
I had two miscarriages in a year so when I got pregnant the third I didn’t say anything till I was almost four months.
So she may have some reason we don’t know about that makes her want to wait before announcing anything.
This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of faking pregnancies and I think it’s despicable. There are all those poor stupid tabloid reading fans of a celeb, pushing their carts through Walmart, thinking, aww, so and so is going to have a li’l baby, JUST LIKE I DID – I LOVE HER FOR THAT. All a lie? A bizarre game to get publicity? If a celeb can’t get pregnant or doesn’t want to spoil her figure – there’s nothing wrong with a surrogate. Why go through a stupid charade, just to get more attention??? I think all those drugs celebrities snorf down have affected their brains.
Ok. This may not sound right but Im sure there are BG females on here. They would prob agree with me that when us women have that time of the month or when we eat some food that doesnt go well with our GI tract we bloat big time ! There also women who bloat during pms. So Im going with the B guess.
Thank you for clearing this matter up. For the life of me, I couldn’t understand why Beyonce was faking a pregnancy. This is really sad, as it sounds like the poor kid isn’t going to be treasured and may not even be related or feel some sort of a blood bond to her. Very sad and very selfish.
I have only read the title. Not the blind, not the comments. My guess is Beyonce.
BEYONCE….
HER “STANS” HATE TO ADMIT IT… BUT HOME GIRL IS LYING… SOMETHIN’ IN THE WATER AIN’T CLEAN…. IJS
I kind of think she is pregnant now because it was just announced she is launching a maternity wear line and she can wear her clothes, makes sense why the fake bump, you don’t get a real bump for many months! she needs a fake to shill her line!
Just to be different I’ll say Beyonce. That folding belly was so obviously fake.
I can’t see why any famous woman such as Beyonce would risk faking a pregnancy. If it were revealed it would pretty much be the end of anyone ever taking her seriously again. The public shame would be insane. Why risk it?
Good question. But I do think she’s faking and now that she’s gone down that path, she’ll have to fake it to fruition. Wear increasingly large fake bumps and then “give birth” in seclusion and emerge with a live child.
Are they going to quietly adopt or something? Or have her miscarry?
Ok, so Beyonce is the obvious guess, but I thought BG pics were a clue….so why is the pic a Caucasian woman?
This is defiantly Beyonce, there is a video of her sitting down and her “bump” completely deflates.
It’s funny. On TMZ, they’ve been “jokingly” talking about these celeb women who are “pregnant”, then magically lose all that “baby” weight in such a short amount of time. Yes part of it is from trainers, dieting, etc. but now that I read this, it makes sense now. Wow celebs are messed up. lol Thanks BG!
It’s always crazy to see them in jeans or tight dresses two months later. Not to be all tmi but any woman who’s had a baby has to deal with the dreaded jelly belly.
You don’t just have a baby and your stomach magically shrinks. And I exercised before and after.I still had to wear my stupid maternity jeans. I was watching Christna Appelgates new show and you can tell she had a baby not too long ago.
First time poster! Love this site.
Beyonce!!!!!!
Welcome, Summer! Love, BG
To jump on the Bey train, the first clue that stood out to me was all the “more”s. I can’t think of the song title, but Destiny’s Child has a song with a refrain of “more, more, more, more, more” and every time I read the clue, that chorus came to mind.
It’s totally B.
This is defiantly Beyonce.
It CAN’T be Beyonce – have ya’ll not seen her vacationing in Croatia wearing a bikini that clearly shows her bump?
However HEAT is B’s fragrance but I simply cannot imagine someone like Beyonce to fake a pregnancy just because she could make more money – she already has a gazillion dollars!
Why not?celebrities lie all the time.smh
[links need a full explanation]
first time poster..wonder how they’ve spun this one with the tv show.Oh Bey
Welcome, Mandlee! Love, BG
I’ve never seen a post where I had to click on a 2nd page to read the responses. Beyonce is talked about whether she’s in a bikin on a yacht 3000 miles from her home or going shoe shopping with her mom in NY. Where’s the dire need for attention? She always gets it regardless of what she does. Her pictures are one of the most expensive to purchase by magazines because she dodges the paps. Oh you can ask around to find this to be truth.
Attention? You give it to her. I give it to her. And every tv show news program gossip site and radio show gives it to her.
you all are trying to have it both ways and it doesn’t work.
Hilary Duff….because she is supposedly 4 months pregnant and I can’t even see a bump.
She wore a white shirt a few days ago and her bump was pretty noticeable. She’s definitely pregnant.
If you dress in loose clothes, at 4 months, your belly is not going to be that large looking–esp if it is your first pregnancy.
