Jay-Z, Beyonce and Daughter Step Out in Public Amid Underage Rape Accusations
55-year-old Jay-Z, who is accused of raping an underage girl in 2000, appeared in public with his family: together with his wife Beyoncé, eldest daughter Blue Ivy and his mother-in-law Tina Knowles, he appeared at the premiere of the film "Mufasa: The Lion King" in California.
Discussions were sparked not only by his public appearance amid the scandal, but also by the image of 12-year-old Blue Ivy: as noted online, she is dressed too maturely, in an off-the-shoulder dress with a low neckline.
Jay-Z is accused of raping a 13-year-old girl at a party in the 2000s along with his friend P. Diddy, who is now in prison.
The rapper himself denies the accusations against him. According to him, the woman who filed the lawsuit and her lawyers are simply trying to blackmail him. "Only conspiracy theorists would believe the idiotic accusations that have been brought against me. If it weren't for the seriousness of the suspicions related to harm to children, it would be simply laughable," Jay-Z said.
The network is also discussing a like from Beyoncé's mother Tina Knowles, which journalists noticed on one of the posts. Users assumed that she might know something, but Tipa herself said that her Instagram account* was hacked.
