In recent years, JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s pre and/or post-event parties have become more popular than the ceremonies they’re meant to commemorate. This year’s Oscars were no different.

Roc-A-Fella co-founder Dame Dash used to be a very close business partner and friend of JAY-Z’s, but somewhere down the line they drifted apart. It’s not entirely clear what happened between the two of them, but after over 15 years, Dash has decided that it’s time to apologize. In a video he posted to his Instagram, […]

The Beyhive is reminding the world just how petty protective they can be. On Saturday night, Beyoncé‘s notoriously vociferous fanbase issued a stern warning to model Lori Harvey: Stay away from JAY-Z. Harvey, who is also the stepdaughter of comedian/TV host Steve Harvey, was spotted at the Roc Nation pre-Grammys brunch in Los Angeles. The 22-year-old posted a number of […]

Are JAY-Z and Rihanna cooking up another collaboration? Sources told Page Six that the entertainers were spotted together Wednesday at Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel-Air.
