Knowles-Carter? Be is Rockin' Her Fame!!

Beyonce and Jay-Z are changing their surnames to Knowles-Carter to keep the family's name going. For a woman to get a man to change his last name is not easy at all, and many would say non-traditional.  For a man to take his woman's last name takes alot of heart and resides alot of love. Some men would say Jay lost cool points for that but nonetheless, HE DID IT! And Beyonce is Rockin' Her Fame for not only all of her success as an entertainer but JUST FOR THAT NAME CHANGE ALONE! YOU ROCK YOUR FAME GIRL!!!

BEYONCE Knowles and Jay-Z are planning to change their names.

"Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z - who married in April 2008 - are to take on both of their respective surnames in order to keep the Sweet Dreams singer's parental line from dying out.

Jay-Z – whose real name is Shawn Carter - will now be known as Shawn Knowles-Carter, while Beyonce is to become Beyonce Knowles-Carter.

A source revealed: “They want to keep Knowles because Beyonce’s parents didn’t have any sons and they’re keen to keep the name going strong, especially if they don’t produce any children themselves.”


Earlier this week, the Knowles family suffered a blow when it was announced that Beyonce’s parents Tina and Mathew would be divorcing after 29 years of marriage.


In October, rumours surfaced that Mathew may have been unfaithful, with a paternity suit filed by Alexandra Wright claiming he was the father of her unborn child – an allegation he has denied.


However, in a statement the estranged couple – who also have another daughter, Solange - claimed that the divorce would not be “an ugly, messy fight” and they would continue working together amicably." Source: OK!
