Solange Knowles speaks out for first time about Jay-Z elevator attack as she insists they are 'all good'

                         

Beyoncé's sister has spoken out for the first time since her famous elevator bust with her brother-in-law, Jay-Z

Solange Knowles described the shocking showdown as 'that thing' and insisted that any ill feeling she had to the rap star was forgotten.

'What's important is that my family and I are all good,' Solange said. 'What we had to say collectively was in the statement that we put out, and we all feel at peace with that.'

Knowles, 28, who spoke to Lucky magazine about the bust up, was caught on a security camera in May as she lashed out at Jay-Z while her older sister stood by and said nothing.

They were in an elevator at the Standard Hotel in New York after attending the Met Gala when Knowles kicked and attempted to slap Jay-Z.

In the footage, a man who looks to be a bodyguard tries to hold Solange back but she manages to rain blows on the rapper several times, and even hits him with her purse.

The incident was caught on the elevator's camera and leaked by a hotel worker before it spread across the internet. The employee was fired by the hotel following the furor.
The following day, the two sisters and Jay Z addressed the video captured by cameras at The Standard Hotel in New York.

Friends speculated that Knowles, whose singing career has failed to match those of her sister, was angry at Jay-Z for not supporting her.

It was also suggested that Knowles was angry by the rap impresario getting 'too close' to his former business partner's ex-wife.

Two days after the video leaked, Beyoncé showed her public support to her sister by taking to her Instagram account on Wednesday to post tender images of the two together.
