Beyonce’s pregnancy was always an enigma that stood stealthily on it’s own two feet as a pop culture phenomenon. When Queen Bee announced the “love growing inside of her” at last year’s MTV VMAs during her “Love On Top” performance, we all sat, jaws dropped in disbelief that our favorite pop star was creating life.

The disbelief took on a life all its own when Beyonce was spotted out in her tightest dresses and highest heels and even more so when she appeared on Autralian TV in an interview where she went to sit down and the fabric of her dress folded over, and seemingly crushed her unborn Blue Ivy. Another clouded reality was Beyonce’s pregnancy timeline. It seemed to flash before our eyes and th whispered rumors got louder.

“That was crazy. It wasn’t hurtful, it was just crazy,” Beyonce tells PEOPLE. “[I thought] ‘Where did they come up with this?’”

Even Bey’s mom, Tina Knowles, was brokenhearted by the surrogacy rumors. “I thought it was very unfair and very cruel that someone would think that someone would be that diabolical to keep up a charade like that for nine months,” Tina says. ”As a mother it was painful for me to hear the crazy rumors. And I even had people ask me, which was so ridiculous.”

Tina went on to say that because of all of the love and support from loyal Beyonce fans, they’ve been able to deal with the “stupid rumors.”

I don’t know much about being a mother personally, but I do understand just how hurtful it can be to experience the joy of becoming one, but have the world take that away from you because they assume you want to be deceptive and pay someone to have your child for you, but pretend all the while that you’re with child. It’s a bit too sick to even think that Beyonce or anyone around her would go for that.
