Beyonce Stuns At Super Bowl Halftime Show With (Pantsless) All-Female Band

Beyonce Stuns At Super Bowl Halftime Show With (Pantsless) All-Female Band

So what did everyone think about the Super Bowl halftime show with Beyonce & Co. yesterday? I’m not crazy about her writhing about on the floor stripper-style to start, but with a chorus of backup singers in differing shapes and sizes and an all female band (“The Suga Mamas”) backing her, at least B’s performance shows a range of possible roles for women in music.

Why Taylor Swift’s Diet Coke Deal Is Even Worse Than Beyonce’s Pepsi Deal

Why Taylor Swift's Diet Coke Deal Is Even Worse Than Beyonce's Pepsi Deal

First, Pepsi signed a $50 million deal with Beyonce to pump up their brand. Now, Taylor Swift is shilling for Diet Coke. Announced over the weekend (via a video on Taylor Swift’s YouTube channel claiming the drink as one of her “great loves”), the deal is expected to be more than a few 30-second commercial spots. So now both brands are going to try their hardest to make fans believe that drinking carbonated sugary drinks is an essential part of their favorite celebrities’ lifestyle. It might sound like a joke to you and me, but I’m not sure the stars’ younger fans are so discerning. And here we thought Ronald McDonald was bad. More »

Ask An OB/GYN: What’s ‘Normal’ Pregnancy Weight Gain And Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss

Ask An OB/GYN: What's 'Normal' Pregnancy Weight Gain And Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss

Did Jessica Simpson gain too much weight during her pregnancy? Did Victoria’s Secret model, Alessandra Ambrosio not gain enough weight? Did Beyonce lose her post-baby weight too quickly? Plenty of people think they have the answers just by looking at them and judging their appearance pre- and post-baby. But what are the real health concerns and medical guidelines for pregnancy weight gain?

On behalf of women everywhere who may be feeling pressured to have the perfect body while pregnant and fit back into those skinny jeans a few weeks later, we set out to get answers from a qualified professional–instead of snarky media headlines. We consulted with Dr. Myra Wick, a OB/GYN from the Mayo Clinic to get the real scoop on healthy pregnancy weight gain and weight loss. More »

State Health Department Dismisses Complaints Against Lenox Hill Regarding Beyonce Birth

State Health Department Dismisses Complaints Against Lenox Hill Regarding Beyonce Birth

Well that was awful speedy. Just yesterday, it was reported that the State Health Department was looking into two complaints made against Lenox Hill Hospital. After media reports surfaced that Beyonce‘s practically presidential security prevented multiple families from seeing their children — and don’t forget the father who couldn’t get to his twins in the NICU — agents at the department said that they were investigating. But that very same day, state health officials dismissed these formal complaints. More »

Should Patients Sue Hospital Over Beyonce’s Crazy Security Measures?

Should Patients Sue Hospital Over Beyonce's Crazy Security Measures?

Beyonce and Jay-Z caused quite the commotion at Manhattan’s Lenox Hill Hospital, where other parents are now threatening to press a lawsuit over the crazy security measures surrounding baby Blue Ivy Carter‘s birth. Since the weekend, more reports have surfaced from angry families who were told they couldn’t visit their newborn babies or move around on the hospital floor where Beyonce gave birth. The hospital is denying rumors that it put the entire sixth floor on lockdown, but some accounts suggest otherwise. We think the hospital should be held accountable for compromising general patient care; we want to know what you think.

Sorry! This poll is now closed.

Angry Parents Blame Beyonce For Separating Them From Babies; What About Hospital’s Responsibility?

Angry Parents Blame Beyonce For Separating Them From Babies; What About Hospital's Responsibility?

Beyonce gave birth to baby girl Blue Ivy Carter this weekend at Lenox Hill Hospital, where she and Jay-Z also succeeded in pissing off several other new parents along the way. Their over-the-top security measures effectively shut down the entire floor of their private birthing suite, even kicking parents out of the hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) where their premature newborn babies are kept. The parents are raging over Beyonce and Jay-Z’s unjust narcissism and disregard for other families, but all I can think is: What’s wrong with a hospital that it would allow any patient to rewrite its rules?
