By now we all know that Solange used her limbs (and purse) to unleash some physical fury on Jay Z  after the Met Gala last week. Judging by how fast she lost it, Jay’s sister-in-law was already heated when those elevator doors opened.

This means that the anger wound could’ve been fresh, or that she had some pent-up frustration against Papa Hov, and she let it all out. But an elevator isn’t the best place to communicate those feelings — especially not with your feet.

Nevertheless, Jigga caught a fresh fade  at one of the biggest events in fashion, one that the whole world has now seen.   Family business should stay behind closed doors, but the leak of this fight tape shows us just how intrusive celebrity culture has become. It also shows that the New York newspapers should chill with the cliché headers,  Jay Z is working with has catlike reflexes and the inner restraint of a zen master.

What we don’t know definitively, is how it all got to that level. Get into some the crazy conspiracy theories below.

You knew Rihanna was going to get thrown in the mix. In short, the New York Daily News says Solange spazzed on Jay because he wanted to party with Rih Rih, solo.

 

The ‘Yak

One theory is that Solo was hella drunk and finally just lashed out on her brother-in-law. There’s no proof that she was toasted though.

Another story floating around the ‘Net is Solange is mad  Jay Z never put her on. Yeah, sure.

 

The Dame Dash Effect

Word has it that Solange was “provoked” after she argued with designer Rachel Roy (ex wife of Dame Dash).

Meanwhile, Mr. Dash involved himself with this Instagram post.

 

Defend & Honor

Some say Jay Z previously disrespected his Queen, and Solange was fighting her sister’s battle.

Words With Friends

Jay Z may have said something that Solange “took the wrong way” and well, you know what happened next.  The fight was ultimately over something “small and stupid,” so says another of the many sources that keep talking.

 

The Illuminati

Solange wasn’t trying to join…so she fought her way out of the initiation process? The rumor posse has no chill.
