Beyonce Dead Hoax: How Her Family Reacted To Death Rumors

Beyonce has not died, it has been confirmed, despite several social media trends claiming otherwise.

Rumors were quickly spreading on the internet that the mother of one had “bled to death,” causing Beyonce’s name to trend for several hours on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.

Being the private person that she is, Beyonce didn’t even take the time out of her day to respond to the absurd allegation, having just wrapped a tour that grossed well over $250 million worldwide, and neither did her family.

According to Hollywood Life, nobody who personally knows Beyonce was worried about the singer’s well-being when the rumor started trending online. A source alleges that the family is so used to seeing all kinds of stories being printed about Bey, it has become laughable to them at this point.

A source reveals, ‘There wasn’t much response to the rumors in house with [Beyonce’s] people and family, but she was aware of it and is just happy that Blue Ivy isn’t old enough to get tricked by it by seeing that kind of stuff online.”

“She moved on from it relatively quickly, not putting much attention to it. Nobody was really fooled by it.”

As the source already mentioned, Beyonce was glad to know that Blue didn’t catch wind of the rumor about her supposed death, having tried her hardest to protect her daughter from the tabloid stories that have been printed about the Carter-Knowles in the past year.

In April, the tabloid rumors regarding Beyonce went into overdrive when almost every outlet, including E Online, began to speculate whether the singer was divorcing her husband, Jay-Z, who she subliminally references in several songs lifted from her latest heartbreak record, Lemonade.

Beyonce makes it known that she had been cheated on by the love of her life, strongly insinuating that she’s talking about her music mogul husband. But despite the hard times she’s faced in her marriage with the man she’s been with for 14 years, the “Sorry” singer has also experienced a lot of great moments with him.

One of those is considered to be the fact that Beyonce managed to work through her problems with Jay-Z, who was infamously accused of cheating on the 35-year-old with multiple women over the years.

Because of how private Beyonce tends to be with her life, insiders do stress that it’s always tricky to know whether the singer is creating the scandalous headlines herself in order to promote her music, or whether she’s genuinely found herself to be a victim in a cheating relationship.

Either way, it seems as if Beyonce has had the time of her life this past year. From having been invited back to perform at the Super Bowl with Coldplay and Bruno Mars, to having grossed $220 million with her Formation Tour, this bootylicious hitmaker is winning all the way to the bank.

Beyonce is not expected to respond to the rumors concerning her “death.” Instead, the singer is said to be focusing her time working on her next joint album, alongside Jay-Z, which some reports claim could drop as soon as this Christmas.

Beyonce’s fans should note that the album will be a Tidal exclusive, should the couple end up deciding to drop the album near the end of the year. Music critics are convinced that the joint record could help surge membership numbers for Tidal, which has struggled to compete with the likes of Spotify and Apple Music.
