Solange Speaks Out For The First Time About Her Elevator Fight With In-Law Jay Z After Met Gala

Solange Knowles is now pulling her punches.

In an interview with Lucky Magazine, Beyoncé’s singer sister glosses over her infamous elevator beat down of brother-in-law Jay Z, calling the shocking showdown “that thing.”

“What’s important is that my family and I are all good,” said Solange, who got dolled up in ’60s chic for the mag’s August issue. “What we had to say collectively was in the statement that we put out, and we all feel at peace with that.”

Hotel Fires Employee Who Leaked Video of Jay Z and Solange

The Standard Hotel, New York, venue where Solange's attack on JayZ occurred, announced on Wednesday that it has discovered and fired the person behind the leak of the tape that showed Beyonce's sister hitting Jay Z during an argument in one of its elevators.

Jay Z Physically ATTACKED by Beyonce's Sister

TMZ reports: Jay Z was ferociously assaulted by Beyonce's sister Solange  ... who was wildly kicking and swinging at him inside an elevator ... and the attack was captured on surveillance video ... obtained by TMZ.
According to our sources, it all went down at a Met Gala after party last week at the Standard Hotel in NYC.  In the video ... Jay Z, Beyonce and Solange step into the elevator ... and then Solange goes crazy, screaming at Jay before unleashing a violent attack. 
A large man -- who appears to be a bodyguard -- attempts to hold Solange back, but she manages to connect at least 3 times.  At one point Solange throws a kick and Jay grabs her foot, but never attempts to strike her.  Beyonce stands by without getting physically involved.
