Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange moving on from elevator incident: Report

Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange say they are moving on following a video that was leaked this week showing Solange attacking Jay Z in an elevator just a week ago at the Met Gala in New York City.

"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. 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 website TMZ posted the three-minute video Monday and said it was shot last week inside an elevator at the Standard Hotel in New York City.

According to Page Six, the video was sold to TMZ for $250,000 after being shopped around for nearly five days to the highest bidder.

The video appears to show Solange, Beyonce's sister, attacking Jay Z in Beyonce's presence. A security guard intervenes. The footage shows the performers in the outfits they wore to the Met Gala last week. There is no audio making it unclear why Solange attacked her brother-in-law.

Meanwhile, the hotel said Wednesday it had fired the person who recorded the video.
