Beyonce and Jay Z have officially commented on the leaked video footage that appeared to show Solange attacking Jay-Z in an elevator at NYC hotel on Monday, May 5, 2014 after the Met Gala.
The surveillance video from the Standard Hotel was leaked to TMZ by an employee of the hotel for $250,000

In an exclusive statement to The Associated Press on Thursday, the trio said they have worked through their differences and moved on since a video emerged this week showing Solange kicking Jay Z as Beyonce looked on.
“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,” the statement said. “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.”
The hotel said Wednesday it had fired the person who recorded the video.
Although the power couple are yet to reveal the real cause of the fight, we hope they sort out their family issues to avoid future occurrences.
