Obnoxious Report……If you haven’t heard the shocking news already, Solange attacked her brother-in-law, Jay-Z, in an elevator while leaving an after party for the Met Gala.
The 27-year-old mother of one stormed into the elevator with her sister, brother-in-law, and the couple’s body guard in a rage — kicking, punching, and slapping Jay-Z as the rap mogul desperately attempted to stop her from hitting him. At this time, no one knows the cause of the altercation.
Even more odd than the attack itself, is watching Beyoncé stand and witness the altercation without interfering. When the trio exited the elevator and hopped into their vehicles, Beyoncé chose to get in the car with her sister instead of her husband. This is yet another strange decision she made…
So, why didn’t Beyoncé protect her husband when Solange attacked him?
There are dozens of theories swarming the internet, but the only consistent answer to this question is no one — except those involved in the altercation – knows exactly why Beyoncé chose to exclude herself from the dispute involving her husband and younger sister.
TMZ report below:
11:33 AM PT — TMZ has obtained an EXTENDED VERSION of the elevator footage … showing Solange continuing her attack on Jay Z for 2 more minutes.
At one point, Solange even smacks Jay with her purse … spilling the contents all over the floor of the elevator.
Eventually, the group exits the elevator … but not before Solange takes a few last shots.
Jay Z was ferociously assaulted by Beyonce’s sister Solange … who was wildly kicking and swinging at him inside an elevator … and the attack was captured on surveillance video … obtained by TMZ.
According to our sources, it all went down at a Met Gala after party last week at the Standard Hotel in NYC. In the video … Jay Z, Beyonce and Solange step into the elevator … and then Solange goes crazy, screaming at Jay before unleashing a violent attack.
A large man — who appears to be a bodyguard — attempts to hold Solange back, but she manages to connect at least 3 times. At one point Solange throws a kick and Jay grabs her foot, but never attempts to strike her. Beyonce stands by without getting physically involved.
It’s unclear what triggered the fight.
And this is interesting. When you look closely, you see the bodyguard hit the emergency stop switch on the 12th floor — mid fight — presumably to keep the fight private.
All three walked out of the building together — Solange looks pissed — but while Bey and Solange get in one car … security walks Jay to a different one.
