Jay Z, Beyoncé, and Solange have made their first public statement following the release of the footage of Solange attacking Jay in an elevator. They didn't address what caused the incident, but did note that they have all moved past the issues as a family. It was reported last night that The Standard Hotel has fired the employee who leaked the video of the fight.
Read the entire statement below.
"As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it," "Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family."
"The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false," the statement continued. "At the end of the day families have problems and we're no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We've put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same."
