Despite what Twitter tries to convince us with its "Beyonce gives birth" proclamations, and as cute as the name Tiana May Carter might be, Beyonce is still pregnant.
One of the most hyped celebrity babies of all time has yet to arrive.
You can't believe everything that you read on social media. Beyonce and Jay Z were totally spotted dining at Brooklyn's Buttermilk Channel on New Year's Eve.
Her baby bump was present and accounted for. Rumor quashed.
Jay-Z and Beyonce's baby is due in February.
The rumor started after the luxurious birthing suite at New York City's St. Luke's hospital was reserved last week, and "hospital staff" claimed it was for Beyonce.
Gossip spread like wildfire online, as these things have a way of doing, but rest assured, the beautiful bun in that oven will be baking for another month or so.
If that changes - or if Twitter tries to induce labor early - we'll let you know.

LONDON ? British fencing authorities say Bob Anderson, a former Olympic swordsman who staged fights for films including the "Star Wars" and "Lord of the Rings" series, has died. He was 89.
Anderson donned Darth Vader's black helmet and fought light saber battles in the original "Star Wars" trilogy.
His role was not initially publicized, but Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker, said in a 1983 interview that "Bob Anderson was the man who actually did Vader's fighting." The character was played by David Prowse and voiced by James Earl Jones.
Anderson worked as a sword master or trainer on movies including the James Bond adventures "From Russia With Love," `'The Legend of Zorro" and "The Hobbit."
The British Academy of Fencing said Monday Anderson died early New Year's Day.

Those perpetual rankers over at Nielsen unveiled their "Tops of 2011" list this week, revealing the most popular brands and products across all manner of categories. There's nothing particularly shocking over on the digital side of things -- Google topped the list of Top US Web Brands, followed by Facebook. Perhaps a bit more surprisingly, Yahoo managed to hold its own in 2011, rounding out the top three. Over on the smartphone side, Apple came out on top with a 29 percent marketshare in data pulled from August to October 2011, followed by HTC. Despite a fairly tough year, RIM managed the number three spot. On the social side, Facebook scored number one, followed by Blogger and Twitter, while some site called "YouTube" was ranked number one in video. Check out the rest of the results in the source link below.
A California teen is lucky to be alive after he survived a harrowing fall outside of Los Angeles when he went to save his beloved dog.
KABC-TV reports that Ivan Salas, 19, went after his dog, who was chasing a bottle that his father had tossed, when both the teen and the pooch went sliding down the side of a 150-foot drop.
"It was extremely scary, dangerous. I don't know what I was thinking when I went down," he told the TV station.
Firefighters grabbed the pair a few hours later as they were clinging to the side of a nearly vertical slope on the hill, the Associated Press reported.
They first tried to hoist him and the dog to safety, but when that looked too dangerous two firefighters bravely rappelled down the cliff to get them. It took 35 firefighters in all to ensure Salas made it home safely.
Dramatic video caught the incident, where Salas is seen clinging to the side of the hill as a firefighter came to rescue him.
"(The rocks) were hitting me in the face and my dog too, and then my dog started panicking, she was going crazy. I just grabbed her tight," Salas told the station.
Salas has a few bumps and was dehydrated, but otherwise just shaken up from the incident. His dog was also unharmed.
"It's not just a dog, it's family and my best friend at the same time, so I had to do it," Salas told the station.
