Jay-z & Beyonce: Oprah Is Not Blue Ivy’s Godmother

Rumors about Blue Ivy Carter were swarming before she was even born, and the latest one is that Jay-Z and Beyonce have asked Oprah Winfrey to be her godmother. But it’s not happening.

Oprah’s BFF, Gayle King, said on CBS’s Early Show this morning, “It’s absolutely not true that [Oprah] is the godmother. She’s friends with them, of course, and likes them both very much. She hasn’t even had time to send a baby gift because she’s been away. If that report is true, it is news to her.” –Christina Isaacs
