Beyonce, Jay-Z Baby Security Prevents Man From Seeing Newborns in Hospital

Over the weekend (Jan. 7), the music industry's ultimate power couple welcomed their first child, Blue Ivy Carter. But not everybody is over the moon about Beyonce and Jay-Z's new bundle of joy. One Brooklyn man is fuming over Bey and Jay's presence at New York's Lenox Hill Hospital and insists that the celeb couple's security denied him access to visit his premature newborn twins and wife in the intensive care unit.

Now, Neil Coulon is demanding an apology from the world's favorite music couple, whose presence at the hospital seems to be having a disruptive effect. Allegedly, Bey and Jay's bodyguards upset multiple New Yorkers by keeping new parents and their relatives out of the wards, waiting rooms and even hallways in order to protect Beyonce and Jay-Z's privacy.

Coulon told New York Daily News "Three times they stopped me from entering or exiting the NICU and it happened once on Friday -- just because they wanted to use the hallway." The father continued, "They should have been more strategic about it. These are children with problems in intensive care and you're just going to take over the hospital like you own it? "All I want is an apology."

According to Coulon, the notoriously private celeb couple seriously crossed the line trying to ensure their seclusion in the hospital. "I know they spent $1.3 million and I'm just a contractor from Bed-Stuy [Bedford-Stuyvesant], but the treatment we received was not okay ... My wife is just terribly upset. She had a C-section. She gave birth to twins ... Nobody needs this ... This is the NICU. Nobody cares if you're a celebrity. Nobody is star-gazing. They just want to see their children. To have that circus roll into town and ruin our parade was unpleasant."

Lenox Hill Hospital spokeswoman Anne Silverman responded to Coulon's accusations saying, "We take patient satisfaction very seriously. This is the first time I'm hearing about it."

Do you think Coulon and his family deserve an apology? And will Hov and B oblige his demands?

If Beyonce & Jay-Z are so wealthy- why not rent out a facility, hospital floor ,etc. extremely private and not interfere with anyone else??? That, my dear, is what RICH, WHITE, FOLK do!!!!!!!

Haters, blacks get treated this way by every rich white person. Everywhere! I'm glad to read your comments on this happening to you,or someone you know.I could list the things that are done to blacks by whites but i would never stop typing this year. Blacks are only 10% of America but over 50 % of the negative stories white reporters write about. HATE campaigns against blacks never stops. Now its the best female vocal/beauty/wonderful person who has tried to treat everyone with respect. RACIST HATERS will never go away because REPORTERS find anything can and discuss this for 1 reason and 1 reason only. So we don't have to talk about the things non blacks do. Like at PENN STATE. YOUR KIDS WERE RAPED. How can you talk about this weak azzz chit. You're letting them get away by throwing you a black people story. Don't fall for this. Please fix WHITE America also. There are many negative stories about whites, White reporters ignore then so suburbans can feel good about themselves. One thing I have learned, the worst human being resides in the suburb, not the inner city. Its TRUE!

....Way to make an article about special treatment for celebrities in hospitals about blacks vs. whites. If the article showed a picture of the complaining parent in question and you saw that he was black, would you have reacted this way? Of course not. You're playing the race card because it's the first one your brain runs to. You are what is wrong with persistent racism in America, making everything about "woe is the mistreated blacks, all whites are evil, etc." Your stereotyping, prejudiced, racist comments slandering caucasions as a whole are a disgrace to black people who spend their lives trying to peacefully and sensibly rid society of racism. And you are working to keep racism alive in comments like these. Way to spit on the peace MLK dreamed of. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

Who do these people think they are? Someone should have stopped Jay Z from seeing his newborn and wife. It'd be nice to see how they'd react if the tides were turned. Its appalling how fame and stardom allows you to be ignorant and inconsiderate. As if the hospital was named after them... : (

Women have babies everyday it's not like she's the first to have ever gave birth, I don't think this family will receive an apology from them because they will assume they weren't responsible just like all the celebrities assume. They never do anything wrong in their eyes and in the media's eyes. Us regular people don't mean anything to them because we don't live in their high class world. These "Die Hard" fans make them believe they are so much better than the rest of us by grabbing at them during concerts, etc. Like they actually believe that at the end of the day their actually gonna remember you from one of their shows, Unfortunately they will forget you like you never existed but you will remember them for as long as you live, how sad is that? I'm sorry that this women had to endure this as her husband was stuck in the hallways trying to get back there to her. Jay-z and Beyonce just tool this moment from this family without any care at all, it's not like it can be relived all over again.

NO their child is THE MOST special child in the whole world. They should close down the whole hospital for the arrival of the most beautiful child every to be born in the world. I hope the people that had their special day ruined by J-Morons thug low life gagster "security" sue these two overrated blowhards.These people will NEVER get that moment back...PS BLUE IVY is VERY STUPID NAME, the poor girl is stuck with that name for life.
