Beyoncé and Jay Z know all about love.

The couple has been married for almost 11 years, has three children, and sing many songs with “love” in the title.

On Thursday night, the Carters were honored at the GLAAD Awards which recognized them for their contribution to the LGBTQ+ community.

“We’re here to promote love for every human being,” Beyoncé said while accepting the Vanguard Award alongside her husband.

“And change starts with supporting the people closest to you. So let’s tell them they are loved. Let’s remind them that they are beautiful, let’s speak out and protect them. And parents, let’s love our kids in their truest form… I’d like to request that we continue to shift the stigmas in this community, especially the stigmas in black families towards queer black and brown men and women.”

Jay Z acknowledged his mother Gloria who came out as a lesbian late in life, while the Lemonade singer dedicated the award to her “fabulous, gay” uncle Johnny who died of AIDS.

“He lived his truth, he was brave and unapologetic during a time when this country wasn’t as accepting. And witnessing his battle with HIV was one of the most painful experiences I’ve ever lived. I’m hopeful his struggles served to open pathways for other young people to live more freely. LGBTQI rights are human rights. To choose who you love is your human right. How you identify and see yourself is your human right.”

Nothing like a music video shot by the music industry’s power couple to make the world’s best-known museum even more famous. 

It’s been just under a month since Beyoncé and Jay-Z dropped their joint album Everything Is Love. At the time, Beyoncé took to Instagram and shared snippets of “Ape**it” that was filmed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. 

In the video, the duo position itself among the pieces alongside a cadre of dancers. The video includes 17 pieces of art, some more recognizable than others like Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa and the Winged Victory of Samothrace. 

Now the Louvre is giving guided tours based on Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s video, which means that art buffs and music lovers alike can relive the video in real life, following the museum’s art collection based on where the couple was filmed.

Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, the choreographer behind the video, told Pitchfork, “I think the dancers are just so beautiful, and there’s something very sculptural about them. When they are inside of that space — just right on the stairs or suddenly moving in the group — you have the feeling that they could be those ancient mythological goddesses of the hunt or of wisdom. My projection of that was that they were embodiments of goddesses.”

According to the museum’s website, the tour lasts 90 minutes and runs on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

One fan spotted the U.K. and North American dates on separate landing pages on Ticketmaster on February 22 before they were erased. The couple went on the tour together in 2014 and the 2018 outing is being called a sequel to it.

There’s a possibility that the “leak” is actually a marketing trick in order to create buzz among the fans.

On Thursday, Forbes magazine revealed its annual ranking of top five wealthiest hip-hop artists, and this year there has been a change on the top. In 2018’s rankings, Jay-Z emerged as the wealthiest man in hip-hop, leaping over last year’s number one, Sean Combs aka Diddy.

Compared to 2017, Jay-Z increased its net worth from $810 million to $900 million, thanks to his champagne brand Armand de Brignac and D’Ussé cognac. His ownership stakes in Roc Nation and Tidal streaming service also greatly helped the cause.

Diddy, on the other hand, didn’t have such a fruitful year like Jay-Z, but he also didn’t lose any of his wealth. In 2018 Diddy’s net worth is $825 million, which represents a $5 million increase compared to the last year. His ventures in vodka (Ciroc) and TV ( Revolt) businesses didn’t pan out as he may have expected, but his businesses with DeLeón tequila and beverage company Diageo helped Diddy to keep his fortune intact.

Dr. Dre remained on the third spot with a net worth of $770 million, compared to $730 million in 2017. The legendary rapper and hip-hop producer might well claim the first spot in 2019 since he is about to get some Apple stocks in the summer which could end up being worth well about $100 million.

When it comes to fourth and fifth place on the list, there is a tie between Eminem and Drake. The both have an estimated net worth of $100 million.
