Jay-Z has refuted stories claiming that his wife Beyoncé is pregnant.

Last week new magazine reports were printed saying that the Sweet Dreams was expecting her first child.

But Jay told Australia’s Daily Telegraph: “It’s not going to happen, I’m just shooting down the rumors before they start.

“They do that every slow news day, This is like the fifth time. I think we have five kids now. No truth, but I wonder when people will stop giving it relevance?”

He added: “You can’t do the same subject. At least change the subject, they have to find a new one.”

Beyoncé’s mum Tina Knowles last week appeared on Ellen Degeneres’ chatshow and also shot down the rumours saying ““No, no. It’s not true. Not right now, with all the rumors, by now I should have about five or six grandchildren.”
