“Welcome to the world Blue! We love you already,” Hollywood starlet Gwyneth Paltrow wrote.
“The most beautiful girl in the world,” said Beyoncé’s younger sister, Solange Knowles, while fellow pop diva Rihanna tweeted: “Welcome to the world princess Carter! Love Aunty Rih.”
Beyoncé checked into the hospital on Manhattan’s upper East Side late Friday under the name “Ingrid Jackson,” renting out its entire fourth floor for US$1.3-million, the New York Daily News reported.
