Is Beyonce Pregnant With Second Child? [PHOTO]
Beyonce is causing a bit of a stir on Instagram over a photo that she posted which could be viewed as an innocent vacation picture…or nah?
In the picture (see above), a smiling Queen Bey is buried under a sand sculpture of what looks like a baby bump on her stomach. On the right is her daughter Blue Ivy who is playing in the sand and is oblivious of mommy’s sneaky message.
The photo doesn’t have a caption, which has left many wondering if the ‘Flawless’ singer is subliminally telling her Beyhive (aka her fans) that she is preggers.
Rumors of Beyonce possibly being pregnant started last year when her hubby, Jay Z, may have unintentionally mentioned that his wife is expecting another child during the Paris stop of the On the Run Tour.
While he was performing the track ‘Beach Is Better,’ Hov changed one lyric in the song with the line, “‘Cause she pregnant with another one.”
Beyonce’s reps had no comment on the singer’s possible baby news.
10 Most Stylish Women of 2014
Nike Air Max 1 FB QS 'Black/Bright Crimson'
Nike’s iconic Air Max 1 silhouette is going through a resurgence of sorts. The sneaker giant recently revamped the shoe by making it more lightweight and high-tech with its Ultra Moire series. In addition, they have laced the running sneaker will a myriad of various colorways. Now Nike is ready to debut a new design on the Air Max 1 FB model.
At first glance, the color scheme is a little jarring to the eyes with its black dotted motif across the upper. The bright crimson red and blue-colored pattern on the swoosh, which is reminiscent of the “Shine Through” collection’s Hypervenom, gives it some added contrast. Finally, the black laces, matching outsole and all-white midsole completes the shoe.
This is a Quickstrike release so limited quantities will be available when it drops on Jan. 17. Japanese retailer atmos will be the first to have them in stock followed by your local Nike Sportswear store in the succeeding weeks.
If you manage to snag yourself a pair, you will certainly turn heads with these vibrant sneakers.

Lupe Fiasco and Kid Cudi Have a Twitter War
Rappers Lupe Fiasco and Kid Cudi were once friends but now they are beefing with each other over Iggy Azalea who has been the talk of the Twitterverse for the past month.
According to HipHopDX, the beef started when Fiasco defended Kendrick Lamar’s comments in a Billboard magazine interview where he stated that Azalea has a God-given right to rap.
Azealia Banks, who doesn’t like the Aussie rapper at all, threw several shots at the Chicago rhymer in a barrage of tweets.
Then Cudi jumped into the fray and began subtweeting Fiasco, writing, “Dear black artists, dont talk down on the black community like you are Gods gift to niggaz everywhere.”
Fiasco then responded by telling Cudi to shut up. Afterward, the two continued on with tit-for-tat assassinations of their characters with Cudi calling Fiasco, “Poopé Fiasco.”
We don’t know what to make of this. We just wish everyone would get off Twitter and just drop dope rap music.
Meanwhile, Azalea responded to Lamar’s words of encouragement. Read her tweets below.
Here are Lupe Fiasco’s tweets:

According to the San Jose Mercury News, it happened around 1:30AM at the Fiesta nightclub where the R&B singer was hosting a VIP birthday event.
