Beyoncé announcing she’s pregnant with twins is just the kind of feel good news story we need, sort of a breather from watching the world spectacularly self-destruct.
Yes, you’ve never met her, and Queen Bey is not actually your friend, but the overwhelming feeling of joy and happiness you’re feeling over her growing Blue Ivy‘s baby brothers and/or sisters and/or brother + sister is ABSOLUTELY normal, and is in fact being reverberated around the world.
Including from Rihanna, who is actually Bey & Jay‘s friend, and Brie Larson, who has at least been in the same room as her (Met Gala, 2016).
NO – YOU ARE CRYING BECAUSE BEYONCÉ IS HAVING TWINS ????????????????????????

And obviously Chrissy Teigen is here to feel things with you.

But yeah – people are freaking the hell out. And the fact that she waited till the first day of Black History Month (it’s still February 1st in the States) to announce? Just… *kisses fingers*.

Beyoncé had babies so you wouldn’t have to have babies. Like jay sold drugs so you wouldn’t have to sell drugs.

This Beyoncé news is like that part in Orange is the New Black where everyone escaped for a moment to play in the river.

Beyoncé sensed that we were all in need of good news, and so Beyoncé got pregnant with twins. Beyoncé is a woman of and for the people.

If Trump was mad about the Women’s March getting more attention than him he’s really gonna be pissed about Beyoncé’s pregnancy.

Beyonce’s twins are actually already co-Presidents, but only if you have a subscription to Tidal

Truly, we are all blessed.
It does throw a slight spanner in the works to Bey’s headline gig at Coachella. She might be Beyoncé, but performing on stage while heavily pregnant with twins is a hellova lotta work for even demi-gods. Maybe she’ll get some kind of giant bean bag / throne situation? Maybe she’ll give birth on stage? “BELIEVE ME THIS TIME, BITCHES???!” she’ll scream as she pops out babbies #2 and #3 during the interlude in ‘Daddy Lessons‘.
Apparently, Coachella organisers had no idea she was pregnant. You and us both, buddy.
“Yo you heard Beyonce having Twins?!”

A source joked to TMZ that “The show will go on. She’ll just borrow Dave Grohl‘s big chair [i.e. the one he used when he broke his foot].” But in all seriousness, it’s not yet clear if she’ll be performing this April. We’ll keep you updated.
The real story is – BEYONCÉ’S HAVING TWINS, AND THE ENTIRE WORLD IS SHOOK.
Half a million Tweets about @Beyonce‘s surprise #twins announcement. It’s been 45 minutes. (Spiked at 17k Tweets per min.) ????
