Is This The End? Beyonce And Jay Z Allegedly Sleeping In Separate Hotels For Remainder Of “On The Run” Tour

First The Fat Boys break-up… Beyonce And Jay Z Said To Be Estranged When Not On Stage Performing Via RadarOnline Just days after rumors swirled that Beyonce toured a $21.5 million apartment in the Big Apple for a possible bachelorette pad, a new report claims the superstar’s marriage to Jay Z is in such disarray, the couple may not even be able to finish their joint On The Run tour. “I’m definitely not sure that they’ll make it to Paris,” a source told the New York Post’s Page Six about the longtime pair, who will wrap their international tour in the City of Light on September 13. The paper even insists the “Single Ladies” singer, 32, and her hip-hop mogul husband, 44, remain apart offstage. “They’re not just staying in different hotel rooms, but they have booked separate hotels, and they arrive separately to each show,” the insider said. The couples’ handlers are allegedly in crisis mode: Jay Z and Beyonce attended an emergency meeting on July 31 with concert promoter Live Nation and at least four lawyers to discuss the imploding union, Page Six continues. Though executives insisted the pair put out a statement, the stars refused because they couldn’t agree on what it would say. The paper cites the rapper’s “controlling nature” for the cause of the strife. Despite this report, the Carter’s were photographed coupled up and smiling over the weekend at Gloria Carter’s new restaurant opening. Flip the page for pics and details. Image via AKM-GSI

Jay-Z Raises $1,000,000 For Charity With Beyonce By His Side

Go here to see the original:

Jay-Z’s carnival-themed fundraiser, held last week at New York’s Pier 54 for his Shawn Carter Foundation, raised $1,000,000. The event, called Making The Ordinary Extraordinary, aimed to raise funds for college scholarships for underprivileged kids. Jay arrived first to the event first, but Bey and her belly inconspicuously came later, meeting him at the Spotted Pig food truck where they snacked on sliders. She also sat at a picnic table and watched as her hubby threw darts with Alex Rodriguez. Jay and his mother Gloria Carter started the foundation in 2002 with only one student earning a full ride through college. However, in the next three years, the offering grew to offer 50 scholarships in 50 states. Now, more than 750 students have been awarded scholarships and nearly 500 kids have taken part in the foundation’s college tours, some even rode the bus with Jay’s mom. We love this!

Jay-Z Throws A Carnival For College Kids’ Scholarships

But it wasn’t all Ferris wheels and funnel cakes — unfortunately Momofuku doesn’t make those. The event was called Making Ordinary Extraordinary, and it sought to raise funds for college scholarships. MTV News caught up with Mr. Carter at the event, where he said the evening was about having fun while raising money for a good cause. Jay said two of the worst things in life are a waste of talent and a person who applies him- or herself but is unable to advance due to financial hardship. He hoped this foundation would help ease such burdens and assist people in recognizing their potential. “Just providing opportunity and seeing what people do with that opportunity. If you want to go further and you want to further your education, just giving someone that extra little push [so] that maybe you’ll turn out to be someone special,” Jay said. Jay and his mother, Gloria Carter, started the foundation in 2002 to help those facing socioeconomic difficulties further their education at institutions of higher learning. The foundation started with one student earning a full ride through college and grew to offer 50 scholarships to students in 50 different states annually from 2003 to 2005. More than 750 students have been awarded scholarships totaling in excess of $1.1 million, and nearly 500 kids have taken part in the foundation’s college tours — some even rode the bus with Jay’s mom. “My mom has been running this for a number of years,” said Jay. “My mom gets on the bus and takes the kids and takes them to their orientations and she’s been riding around the college. It’s a real grassroots thing that she’s been doing on her own, and I’m just really trying to help her expand it so we can help more people. It started out as a Brooklyn thing, and then it started as a New York thing, and now hopefully we can take it to a worldwide thing.” Related Artists Jay-Z
