Jay-Z and Beyoncé Almost Named Blue Ivy WHAT???

Before landing on Blue Ivy Carter, Jay-Z and Beyoncé were actually crazy in love with another name.

"It was supposed to be Brooklyn," the "Forever Young" rapper revealed in an Octคำพูดจาก สล็อต888. 27 interview with CBS Mornings, a connection to his beloved hometown. "That was the name we had in theory. But when we got the little sonograms, you know, they're super small and we were calling her Blueberry. It was like a nickname. And for nine months we're like, 'Look at little Blueberry.'"

So it was on to the next one as far as they were concerned when it came to a moniker for their daughter, now 11.

"I still get goosebumps seeing her walk on stage," he shared. "Because Blue's been born into this world, she's been born into a life she didn't ask for. Since she was born, she's been in scrutiny and everyone has an opinion. Even [as] a little girl, how she keeps her hair. So for her to be on that stage and reclaim her power, and the song is called ‘My Power,' and it's just—you can't write a better script."
