Beyoncé: 'What Jay and I Have is Real'

Songstress Beyoncé Knowles has kept mum on reports that she wed rapper Jay-Z six months ago...until now.

"What Jay and I have is real -- it's not about interviews or getting the right photo op. It's real," Beyoncé reveals to Essence magazine.

The singer, 27, spills a few details about her big day -- including the fact that she didn't want an engagement ring! "People put too much emphasis on that -- it's just material and it's just silly to me," she explains. The mag reports that the couple opted for matching tattoos on their ring fingers, reading "IV." Knowles and Jay-Z both have birthdays on the fourth of September and December, respectively -- and the couple said "I do" on April fourth.

The Destiny's Child beauty said she opted for an intimate ceremony so she could skip the drama of a huge wedding. "I'm not a traditional woman," she states. "It's been my day so many days already."

The pair has been dating since 2002 -- and Knowles admits she knew they would tie the knot one day. "We've been together a long time -- we always knew it would happen."

He may be a a really nice guy & all that but c’mon… how can she even kiss him??

I hope they last - I always hope it lasts when people actually bother to get married. 10 points for them! And to top it off, they don’t even have kids yet!!! It must be love; they seem to be doing it in the proper order.

I love Beyonce & Jay-Z and I understand that they don’t want anyone to get in their business but when a person is in love and it is real, you don’t have to hide anything. It is Ok to wear your ring and be proud of each other, no matter where you are. It is not necessary to hide anything. Take it from me, I am married for 35 years. When something is real, you cannot hid it.

YOU KNOW WHAT….FOLKS ALWAYS COMPLAIN ABOUT GETTING IN SOMEONES BUSINESS…SHE HAD THE RIGHT TO KEEP IT TO HERSELF. SHE IS SO TALENTED SO TO DIMINISH HER STAR BY QUOTING SHE HAS HAD 15 MIN OF FAME IS SO IGNORANT. 12 YEARS OF HITS AND THE HIGHEST EARNING FEMALE ENTERTAINER LAST YEAR ACCORDING TO FORBES AT 80 MIL. U MAY NOT LIKE BEYONCE BUT CLEARLY SOME ONE DOES. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT SWEETIE…U ARE DEAD WRONG ABOUT THIS TALENTED STAR!

one thing i don’t understand with these so called stars ,they want to make money from people like us , they want people to buy their music, movie etc. and don’t want us people to make money from them nor know whats going on in their lives , that’s very selfish . tell them get a grip on life, or just be quiet.

Who cares, her extended 15 minutes of fame has finally faded into the back ground and now she want to put herself back into the lime light by talking about a wedding that no one really cares about. She has been over exposed and it been nice to not see her face every where.
