Solange Knowles says she’s a proud auntie already, even though Beyonce and Jay-Z’s baby

hasn’t arrived yet. And the parents know the baby’s gender and have started thinking of names.

At a New York Fashion Week party at Denise Rich’s penthouse overlooking Central Park, Solange

said she’s known about Beyonce’s pregnancy for awhile. “I certainly didn’t find out the way you

guys did,” she said, referring to Beyonce’s baby-bump display at the MTV Video Music Awards last

month.

Solange – dressed in a yellow Thakoon dress and Fendi shoes — said the couple already knows

the baby’s gender, and has been choosing a name, but both are being kept under wraps for now.

Solange, herself a mother, just relocated to Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, from Los Angeles, and

sent her son to first grade this past week. She’s also working on a new record.
