Last we heard from Beyonce, she was nine months pregnant and she had flown to Vancouver, where she was partying her pillow off with her husband. While in Vancouver, there were a few photos of Bey, and she totally looked more “authentically” pregnant than ever before – go here to Dlisted to see one of the latest Bey photos. Her face totally looks heavier, and for a brief moment, I was like, “Oh, okay. Maybe all of the conspiracy theories were totally wrong. Maybe Bey has just had a really crazy pregnancy where her bump collapses and goes up and down constantly BUT she really is preggo.” Of course, there’s a blind item that covers Bey’s weight gain too:

It’s coming down to the wire, folks! Just a few weeks to go. There’s one problem, though. She was looking too thin to be convincing. Thankfully, she found a solution that doesn’t include eating a single bowl of ice cream. It’s called Prednisone. Taking excessive amounts of corticosteroids over time can result in some serious effects, including hypertension and cataracts. Another side effect is gaining weight, especially in the face and neck and abdomen. She knew this because it happened to her before. Last time it was accidental and was upsetting for her. Now, though, it’s purposeful, and is a solution to her problem.

She started taking Prednisone a couple of months ago, so she should be plumping up pretty soon. Fat face and neck coming right up! She not worried, though, because she’s been told that the weight will drop quickly once she tapers down below 10 mg a day. Followed, of course, by claims of how hard she worked to take off the weight.

Yes, it’s just a blind item. No, I can’t verify its accuracy or even WHO is having the ‘roidy fake-pregnancy. But… but… but…

Anyway, Page Six has this interesting little blind item for all of the conspiracy theorists out there:

While St. Luke’s Hospital was reportedly on high alert last night, piquing suspicion that Beyoncé might give birth there, the pregnant singer apparently stopped by one more party before she went into labor.

On Friday, she and husband Jay-Z were spotted at SoHo hot spot W.i.P. for a bash celebrating youth arts program Creation Nation and its Creators Club, which will meet weekly in the space. Beyoncé — who reports say is nine months pregnant — and Jay-Z were spotted sitting tight in a VIP booth and fielding greetings from friends. Beyoncé was overheard saying that her pregnancy was “the best Christmas present possible.”

Our witnesses report that the rapper “was very attentive to his wife, at one point getting up to get her some water.”

Of course I have moments of doubt. Of course I stop every now and then and say, “What if she’s really pregnant? What if this isn’t some huge conspiracy? What if she really has the energy to party and fly to Vancouver in the last days of her pregnancy? What if she really can balance on sky-high heels even in the third trimester?” I don’t have anything to add to that, really. Your guess is as good as mine. I think there’s enough evidence and “common sense” wisdom to make a case for the pillow baby theory, or for the “real pregnancy” theory.
