Beyonce's dad calls Jay Z divorce rumors 'Jedi mind trick'

Beyonce's dad has revealed that the divorce rumors surrounding his daughter and her husband Jay Z are just a "Jedi mind trick".

During an interview with The Roula and Ryan Show on 104.1, Mathew Knowles hinted that the rumors are a publicity stunt as the pair is currently on 'On the Run' tour and the rumors are just a trick to ignite it, Us Magazine reported.

He added that the elevator incident was also a part of the stunt as it got "everybody talking about it" and the ticket sales skyrocketed and so Solange's album sales.
