Solange Knowles 'deeply concerned' for Beyoncé as she continues to support Jay-Z amid child rape lawsuit


Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, is currently locked in a legal fight against a woman who accused him of raping her when she was 13 years old.

CCTV video – bought at the time by TMZ for a reported $250,000 – shows Beyoncé, along with her sister and Jay-Z, piling into an elevator as they leave a Met Gala afterparty at the The Standard, High Line hotel in Manhattan. Spiro said that Tony Buzbee - who is representing the Alabama woman who says she was raped by Jay-Z and Sean ' Diddy' Combs, 55 - glossed over critical details that nullify the case, TMZ reported Monday after reviewing legal documents. Spiro told the court he intends to file a motion to dismiss, citing the timing of the events in question, as the legal statute the woman is suing under had not been implemented until three months later in December of 2000, the outlet reported.
