Jay Z Beyonce And Solange Release Joint Statement On Elevator Incident via NY Daily News Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange Knowles have broken their silence on their infamous family feud caught on tape, saying they have worked through their issues and are moving on. “As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it,” the trio said in a statement to The Associated Press Thursday. “Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family.” The statement comes days after a leaked surveillance video showed Solange attacking Jay Z in an elevator at the Standard Hotel after a Met Gala after-party. The May 5 beatdown was apparently triggered by Solange taking offense to designer Rachel Roy getting “too close” to the rap impresario.
I am a pug owner. In fact, the only thing that matters to me is my pug. Seriously, they are like little retarded people, with little retarded faces, who are always happy and half retarded, who need to be taken care of, because on their own they just can’t survive. Seriously, my pug has almost died at least a dozen times when I leave him alone for days at a time with no food and water. I’m joking, I take that fucker everywhere, and from eating dirty syringes, to trying to hang himself when excited to see a squirrel, to other dumb shit, they need to be watched. So seeing this pug, and his stupid careless owner get in the elevator, without him, and without letting go of the leash, makes me want to kill her and more importantly, makes me happy a dude was there to save the little guy. See, pugs remind me I have a soul.

On October 26th, 2012 me and my friend Carley drove four hours up to Kansas City to go see Justin. I have been an extremely dedicated Belieber for years and my dream was finally coming true. I knew it was going to be great but I was never expecting what would end up happening. We arrived at the hotel around noon and I finally got to meet my best friends from Twitter for the first time in person. We knew Justin and his crew were staying at our hotel because his buses were parked outside and there were tons of girl trying to get in. I was able to get me and my friends into the hotel but more girls ended up sneaking in later. Some of the girls had seen Justin’s grandparents earlier that morning so I knew there was hope to see someone but I still thought my chances were slim. Kenny tweeted that he was going to go work out before heading to the Sprint Center so we went down to the hotel gym to see if he was there . One of the girls that was there was wearing workout clothes so she used my key and went in to go check. But she never came out so I got frustrated and went in myself. I hadn’t taken a full five steps when I saw Kenny laying on the ground doing sit ups . And I got so nervous I just turned around and ran back into the hall and fell on the ground. I couldn’t believe I actually saw Kenny. The door to the gym opened and a really buff guy came out who I had never seen before (I later found out he is Justins new bodyguard). He told us that we needed to leave and I told him my friend was in there still and he tried to tell me that there were no girls in there. We argued for about 5 minutes but I was still very respectful to him and told him sorry to end it and he said, ‘I don’t care if you’re sorry.’ He is probably actually really nice but he wasn’t very nice to me. After that we left and went back up to the lobby. We were just standing there when Bruce and Diane just walked out of a hallway! I asked them for a picture and Justin’s grandma apologized and said there were too many people. They went out to the bus and Bruce didn’t get on! He said, ‘Grandma is tired but I will still take pictures with you!’ So he was taking pictures with everyone and when I asked for mine he said, “Of course sweetie!” His Canadian accent was so cute! We then went back into the lobby and were only there a couple minutes when someone spotted Scrappy in the bar! One of the managers went up to us and told us we weren’t allowed in because none of us were 21 but we just went in anyway and got a few blurry pictures and got to say hello! After Scrappy left, we were standing there for awhile when some of the hotel staff came and checked for room keys and kicked some people out. Some luggage came down stairs and some of Fredos camera equipment was on it! They then said that there were ‘important clients’ about to come down and we needed to stand to the side and not take our phone out and if they saw a phone they would kick us out. We did what we were told and soon Dan Kanter walked in the room! Someone asked him for a picture but the manager lady yelled, “No pictures!” so Dan was like, “Their rule. Not mine.” He told us he had to go check out and went over to the front desk. After he was done he came back and had a long conversation with us! We talked about food and the show and how he liked Kansas City. In the middle of us talking, Alfredo and Kenny walked out of the elevator! We screamed and they just waved and hurried out the door to get into a taxi. Dan soon left also. Pretty soon Allison walked by and waved to us while on the phone. Then Allison walked by holding PAC’s cage!!! We were all like “AWW” and she laughed. We waited a while longer but the buses left and someone came out and basically told us everyone was gone. Me and my friend went back into our room to get ready and I had just gotten changed when my friend who was still in the lobby texted me “He’s still here!!!!” We literally ran out the hotel room door and back to the lobby to find out that the manager said he ‘might’ still be here. Which is basically saying he was because if he wasn’t, they would have told us to leave. We stood in the lobby for awhile before deciding to go downstairs and check the parking garage. No one was down there so we went back to the elevator and were deciding what to do when my friend Sydney’s mom who was still in the lobby, texted her that “They are up here!” All like 15 of us jumped into the elevator screaming out heads off. When we got up there Kenny, Fredo, and the mean body guard from earlier were standing there checking out. Apparently they had just gone to lunch earlier. Kenny came over to us and took pictures with all of us while Alfredo and the other guy waved and hurried out. Kenny was even sweet enough to take extra pictures with my little sister and my friend’s sister who were to short to be seen in the first one . After they left we assumed everyone was gone and me and Carley needed to go get ready for the meet and greet. We got to the Sprint Center an hour early. We went up to the line and while we were waiting for Justin I suddenly got extremely nervous. When they pulled back the curtain for the girls in front of us, I noticed that it was the guy that chewed us out earlier at the hotel . I know he remembered us too because he did a double take and then stared at me. When it was our turn I legit went into shock. All I could do was stare at Justin’s beautiful face. He was laughing at something Alfredo said. I don’t think I will ever be able to describe how perfect he is in person. He was glowing and he looked like an angel. Justin had his arms already open for us to step into so we did and before the picture he gave me a side hug. Justin was trying to stop his laughing for the picture so he ended up with cutest smirk. Right after the flash went off he started giggling again and said something but honestly I was so out of it I don’t even know what he said. I just remember thinking in my head ‘Oh my goodness that’s Justin’s voice.’ They told us our turn was over and my friend yelled over her shoulder that she loved Justin and said goodbye to Fredo. I realized I looked like an idiot not saying a word because I was in so much shock so I turned around before walking out the curtain and I said ‘I love you so much Justin!!’ and Justin smiled and took a step forward saying ‘I love you too!’ in the cutest little voice. I then said ‘Hi Fredo!!!’ and he waved with the biggest smile. I stepped out of the curtain and they handed me this autographed thing and I instantly started bawling. I just couldn’t believe that just happened. I know that nobody is perfect but he has to be pretty dang close. I cried for like an hour until we needed to start finding our way into the actual concert. We got into the arena and me and Carley were extremely fortunate to get front row!! I just looked around in awe for awhile. I don’t think any Belieber can describe that feeling you get as the countdown goes to 0. It’s was in all honesty one of the happiest moments I’ve ever had. Justin is an amazing performer. I’ve always known that but I guess you just get a whole new perspective for it when you actually get to see it. He was born to do this and I couldn’t be more proud. I finally felt like I understood how talented he truly is and how far he has come. During OLLG we were just standing there watching Justin serenade the girl when someone ran in front of us on the other side of the barrier. And both me and Carley knew it was Alfredo. We waited for him to come back after taking pictures and when he did I leaned over the barrier and called his name. He took his hood off an stopped directly in front of me. I was completely taken off guard I thought he would maybe wave but definitely never this. He grabbed my hand that was resting on the barrier and he didn’t shake it – but he intertwined our fingers and just held my hand and got really close to my face and just smiled there for about 15 seconds. He then did the same thing to my friend before putting his hood back up and running off. My friend started crying for the first time that night which just made me break down and cry. We were basically on the floor crying in the middle of the concert and everyone around us just looked at us like we were freaks cause it was the most random time to cry. I just couldn’t believe that happened. I have sat alone in my room dreaming for years and my dream became a reality. Justin has helped me through so much in personal life and I know he has helped so many others also. I wish he could understand what he does for people. He saves them without even knowing it. I just want to say to everyone who sits in there room like I did dreaming about the day that you get to meet Justin to just have faith. Because when it finally happens it is all completely worth it. All the stress I twitter drama, the late night Bieber blasting, everything. It’s all worth it just to let him know that you love him and to know that he loves you back and to see the talent he really has. It will happen to you. You just have to believe. -Sterling Herzik (@ForeverMyRauhl) More here: On October 26th, 2012 me and my friend Carley drove four hours…
