Jay-Z Takes Solange Jewelry Shopping After Elevator Altercation
by Andy NeuenschwanderThe plot thickens.
Just a couple of days after a video surfaced of Solange Knowles attacking her brother-in-law Jay-Z in an elevator at last week's Met Gala, the two were spotted in an unlikely setting: shopping together for jewelry.
According to TMZ, Jay-Z took Solange to New York jewelry store Mr. Flawless, where the two looked at women's jewelry but didn't end up buying anything. The in-laws reportedly showed "no signs of strife," as if their previous altercation had never happened.
That's a bit of a different story than the one being told on Instagram, where Solange has gone so far as to remove most (but not all) of the pictures of her and her sister Beyonce from her account.
That Solange would be so upset at Beyonce is puzzling: In the video, Bey stays out of the fight between her sister and husband, and according to a report, the beef was really between Solange and Jay.
According to the report, Solange ended up bringing a group of (non-famous) friends to the Gala, where they began name-dropping Jay-Z. When Jay learned that it was happening, he confronted Solange and told her to reign them in. But the blows only came later, when Jay reportedly wanted to leave to go to Rihanna's party, sans Beyonce. That's when Solange starting throwing punches and kicks.
So the question is this: Was the jewelry to say sorry to Solange, or to Beyonce?
