Beyonce and Jay-Z became parents for the first time in January last year when Bey gave birth to their daughter Blue Ivy Carter. Now they're ready to have more kids, and Beyonce says she thinks it's necessary for Blue to have a brother or sister.

"I would like more children. I think my daughter needs some company. I definitely love being big sister (to Solange Knowles)", she said in an interview with ABC News. Beyonce also says she's very protective of her daughter, and hopes she can have a normal childhood.
