“I was like, ‘Oh shit!’ I didn’t really know what to do. It was one of those situations where you were like, “Wow!”… When you say this to Jay, he looks at you and says, “No, that happened.”‘
‘She jumped down. She was like on a windowsill. It was in Vegas… She jumped down… and I thought, “Wait, what are you doing?” That’s me and Jay-Z’s stuff, this has nothing to do with you, girl.’
“I’m talking to Jay,” he clarified. “As soon as I talked to Jay, she jumped down and came up to me and I said ‘oh s**t’. Look at this.’

“If Solange was there, I would have had to reboot,” 50 said. “Solange, she jumped in that elevator like it was nothing. Going on with some gangster s***. Jay couldn’t do anything, could he?’
“She came out like she was ready,” 50 added when asked if Beyoncé had said anything. ‘As if something were going to happen. And I’m like, “yo, whoa, whoa, whoa.”
“She’s throwing me away now, because I don’t know exactly how to react. You’re still Beyoncé, you know she brought all the sexy stuff to her with that energy that jumped out,” he said.

Are you trying this or what, boy?! I’m here!” She knocked me out. I look and Jay starts laughing. He’s like, “Yo, you know what it is.” I said, “Oh shit!
