Nearly three months after Elevatorgate, Beyoncé is speaking out about the infamous video of her sister Solange Knowles attacking her husband JAY Z. Just don’t expect her to go into full detail.
On Saturday, the singer released a remix to “Flawless” with Nicki Minaj hopping on the Hit-Boy/Boots-produced track. Beyoncé took the opportunity to address the family scuffle that made headlines around the world.
“Of course sometimes shit go down when there’s a billion dollars on an elevator,” she said, repeating the line for emphasis. Beyoncé and JAY Z’s combined worth is estimated between $900 million and $1 billion, so everything checks out.
The line was a rare mention of the incident which occurred back in May. Solange referred to the altercation as “that thing” during an interview with Lucky magazine, following the threesome’s joint statement.
“What’s important is that my family and I are all good,” she told the glossy. “What we had to say collectively was in the statement that we put out, and we all feel at peace with that.”
