Beyonce announced her pregnancy on Wednesday and broke Selena Gomez’s record for the most-liked image on Instagram. The news was covered everywhere, and the New York Post even turned it into a front page story. All of this reminded the world that at the age of 35, she is the only true megastar in pop culture at the moment. The “Formation” singer is on a level unseen in the industry since the era of Madonna and Michael Jackson.
The mother of one is expecting twins, and according to rumors, she is four to five months pregnant. What is interesting in all of this professionally is the fact that in January it was announced that the former lead singer of Destiny’s Child was set to headline the Coachella music festival in April.
It was supposed to be a historic moment because the last time a female musician headlined the event it was in 2007 with Icelandic artist Björk. The festival was created in 1999, and no other woman has ever headlined it besides those two women.
This gig is now up in the air, and no one knows what will happen and if Queen Bey will be able to honor her commitment. AEG, which is producing the big gathering via Goldenvoice, only found out about the pregnancy yesterday like the rest of the planet.
Jay Z‘s wife’s first pregnancy was not an easy one, and many assume that with twins it might not be an excellent idea to put on a big show as she is used to. However, Beyonce is determined to go through with everything.
This could change, and people responsible for the festival are ready for a plan b if she changes her mind in the upcoming weeks. Music fans will have to wait to find out because Bey likes to play with the media for maximum effect.
