Rihanna, Failed Careers and Cheating: Theories Into the Solange vs. Jay Z Fight

Well looky looky, what do we have here?!? Word on the street is that after Solange delivered an ass whooping of epic proportions to Jay Z last week after the Met Gala after party - the pair allegedly went shopping together. Yep you read that right, after the hitting, kicking and screaming Solo and Jay hit the streets of New York City in search of jewelry together TODAY! Nothing to better to heal family drama than a lil bling bling!

TMZ says:

Jay Z and Solange Knowles went looking for jewelry together Tuesday afternoon at a high-end NYC jewelry store ... TMZ has learned.

Our sources says Jay and Solange were in Mr. Flawless, where they were looking for women's jewelry for around 20 minutes.

We're told the pair showed no signs of strife, and looked at gems with Mr. Flawless himself. They looked, but tried nothing on. They left the store without buying anything.

Jay and Solange didn't talk much inside the store ... they pretty much just browsed quietly.

Interesting!

So a lot of people have been asking me about possible theories as to why Solange went off on Jay Z and I decided to round up a few theories. Here's what the word on the Internet street is:

1. Did Solange's friends have something to do with it?

NY Daily News reports that Solange was pissed over being told, by her bro-in-law--that she could not use HIS name to get her friends into the after party.  

“Two of [Solange's] friends, who were not dressed for the Met Ball, showed up at The Standard and caused a scene downstairs. They wouldn't leave and kept name dropping Jay Z. They were pretending they were guests of his and not hers. Management went to Julius (Beyonce's bodyguard) and said there's a problem. Our source said Jay Z soon got wind of it and snapped at Solange, saying “don't use my name. The 27-year-old singer turned sullen and said she wanted to leave the party.....

and the drama continues

2. So Rihanna's name is being tossed around in this mess 

On the way out, Jay Z said he'd be heading to Up & Down on W. 14th Street, where Rihanna was holding her own post-Met Ball bash, a second source said.

Jay's camp had called ahead of time to say he would be coming alone and "didn't need extra security" because Beyonce wouldn't be attending, the source said.

Apparently, that didn't sit well with Solange.

"She seemed drunk and irritated," said a second source. "She said, ‘Why can't you go home?' and to Beyonce 'Why does your husband need to go to the club right now?'" 

Damn Damn! Solo has a point, why did Hov have to roll solo? Why didn't he invite Beyonce? Allegedly. All this is not looking good for the 44 year old rapper

3. Solange was mad at Jay's EXTRA close friendship with Rachel Roy

Apparently the war of words between Solange and designer Rachel Roy has been a long time coming. Bey's little sister is allegedly not comfortable with the "close relationship that RR and Jiggaman have.

Hollywoodlife.com reports

“Rachel Roy came up to [Solange] in a confrontational way earlier in the night,” a source close to Solange tellsHollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “But they’ve had a long-standing feud. It turns out this ruined the whole night.”

Rachel and Solange’s heated exchange also led to the “Losing You” singer’s elevator smackdown against brother-in-law Jay Z, according to our insider.

“Solange was defending Beyoncé in the elevator because Solange finds Jay’s friendship with Rachel to be WAY too close for comfort and it makes Solange very uncomfortable,” the source reveals. “Beyoncé also confronted Rachel and said, ‘Don’t talk to my sister like that,’ after [Rachel] confronted Solange.”

Another source has confirmed to HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that Rachel and Jay Z do have a close friendship.

Bet Rachel Roy didn't know Solo was about that life huh? Now that friendship between Rachel and Jay Z is dubious to say the least. Rachel was once married to Dame Dash- Jay's former partner so I get them being homies but guys how close is too close? Watch it Rachel, don't catch an elevator beat down!

Now this last theory I don't believe at all..AT ALL! Solange's career been stalled..ok not stalled but I don't think she wants the Beyonce level of success. She's talked about that several times..
5. Solange is upset at Jay Z about her 'stalled' career 

MailOnline told how Jay-Z has reneged on repeated promises to help boost Solange boost music career, according to sources. And a family friend today revealed the simmering tensions that has led to the family feud, saying: 'He hasn’t kept his promise to help her. Jay keeps telling her to give him some time and he will sit down and write with her and then get her into the studio but he hasn't done it yet.' The source added: 'Solange's album is coming out soon but there is no buzz about it, which is a bad sign within the industry.'Solange wants a major career like her sister and she's tired of living in her shadow. She's jealous. 'Jay-Z promised he would help take her to the next level but he never found the time to keep his word.'

This is all some crazy issh! All speculation at this point- where is the audio when you need it? From what I understand the security guard who leaked this video earned $250,000 and a gurantee to get his lawyers fees paid for. Cause you know the Standard Hotel is coming after his ass. DRAMA!
