Gwyneth Paltrow gives Beyonce advice

According to Star magazine, Gwyneth Paltrow thinks motherhood is so great that she’s telling Beyonce that she and Jay-Z, who she’s been with for four years, to have kids… even before they get married (IF they get married).  A source told Star, "Gwyneth thinks kids ground you and bring you greater happiness."

Do you think Beyonce and Jiggah are ready for that next step?

I don’t know if they’re ready or not. But I only partially agree with Gwyneth’s statement. I think they can ground a person and bring them happiness, provided the timing is right. Having kids before you’re ready could work out well in the end for some people, but for other people it could be a complete disaster. I don’t understand why some people make blanket statements to other people about how they should have kids because it will bring so much happiness – that’s clearly not true in all cases.

Beyonce is still very young and should be in no rush to have kids, unless that is something she wants to do. She’s very lucky to have the money that she had so that she can enjoy life to the fullest before having the added responsibility that being a mother brings.

Personally, I think B and J are already married, and they’re just keeping it on the DL (they have enough money to make that happen if they wanted to). As for being ready to start a family, I think “Beyonce and Sean” are ready, but the “B and Jay-Z” parts of the couple are working too much right now to fully be committed to raising a child. I think their personal lives are ready, but as a celebrity…naw, that wouldn’t work to the best of the child.

I think that is terribel advice. Gwen made sure sure was married in time to have apple. She got married while pregnant. Why would she advise to people who aren’t even engaged to have kids. B and Jay have no real comittment..the last thing they need is a kid thrown into the mix.

They do make a cool couple. But I dont think the time is right. Call me old fashioned, but I’m a fan of being married first and then having kids. But hey, to each his own.

The next step should be marriage, not kids. Gwenyth is being irresponsible and not doing Beyonce any favors by advocating children outside of marriage. Shame on her.

Jay-Z’s and Beyonce’s relationship seems like it’s in a state of stagnation. There have even been rumors that they are secretly broken up. What I think Gwyneth needs to do is make sure that her own marriage and family are truly solid before passing an opinion and giving advice on what others need to do with their lives. I think if they were ready, they would probably have done it by now.

Umm..I understand that “jiggah” is Jay-Z’s nickname or whatever, but I wonder if you realize that it is a racist term.
