Beyoncé Buzz: Singer Has Horse Fly Named After Her


Brand new Mommy & superstar singer Beyoncé has another reason to shake her booty: She now has a horse fly named in her honor!

It seems scientists decided to name a rare Australian horse fly after the performer because the bootylicious insect has a prominent backside, which apparently reminded them of Beyoncé. 

The Scaptia (Plinthina) beyonceae fly is found only in the remote far north of Queensland, Australia, and was first discovered in 1981, which also happens to be the year that Beyoncé was hatched born. According to Bryan Lessard from Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, the fly is known as the “all-time diva of flies.”

 Beyoncé is not the only star to have had insects or other animals named after them. Baywatch beach runner David Hasselhoff recently had a species of hairy-chested crabs named after him and The Police rocker Sting has a species of frogs (shouldn't it have been a species of bee?) with his moniker.

After the ridiculous rumors that Jay Z and  Beyoncé named their newborn daughter Blue Ivy after the daughter of Satan, we're certain she doesn't mind an insect buzzing around with her name...

Say Her Name, Say Her Name: Beyoncé Gives Birth to Daughter


Superstar singer Beyoncé has given birth to her first child with husband rapper Jay Z.

The "Halo" singer gave birth last night at the Lennox Hill hospital via C-Section in New York City, according to sources close to the couple. The baby girl's name has been revealed as Ivy Blue Carter by certain media outlets, but other sources, including good friend to the couple, actress Gwyneth Paltrow, have announced her name as Blue Ivy Carter.

Sources also claim that the name does have significance to both Beyoncé and Jay Z, with Blueprint being the name of Jay's popular album and Ivy is reference to Beyoncé's album 4 (IV being the Roman Numeral for the number).

We congratulate the shining couple and the birth of their new, Halo wearing angel.
