Beyoncé, Jay Z mum on whether twins born

- By Cleve R. Wootson Jr. and Amy B Wang

Has she or hasn’t she? Beyoncé fever lit up the internet over the weekend amid reports that Queen Bey had given birth to her twins.

TMZ, Us Weekly and CNN were among the outlets reporting that the superstar and her husband, Jay Z, had welcomed twins, citing unnamed sources.

However, Beyoncé’s social-media accounts have said nothing. Representa­tives did not respond to requests for comment.

And many fans in the Beyhive said they were reserving their excitement until the announceme­nt is Instagram official.

In true Beyoncé fashion, she announced her pregnancy with a surprise Instagram post in February, dropping a picture of herself draped in a light-green veil and surrounded by flowers. Her hands cupped her obviously pregnant belly. In a matter of minutes, the photo had garnered millions of likes and comments.

“We would like to share our love and happiness,” Beyoncé wrote in the caption. “We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. — The Carters.”

The pregnancy forced Beyoncé to bow out of the Coachella music festival in April.
