Matthew Knowles was a guest on The Wendy Williams Show last week, where he shared his reaction to the infamous elevator video featuring his daughters Beyoncé and Solange and his son-in-law JAY-Z. As Buzzfeed notes, the father of two found the whole thing very funny.

"I laughed so hard," he told the audience, "because if you know Solange, that's Solange. You just never know what you're gonna get — a firecracker."

He also felt that Beyoncé's reaction to the scuffle, which many consider to be the genesis of all three's latest albums, was fairly typical for her.

"Beyoncé would be in the corner, quiet, just kinda, like 'when y'all finish, let me know,'" he explained, "so I laughed."
