Beyonce | Jay-Z | Tie-the-Knot | Marry in New York City

Beyonce and Jay-Z on vacation in Mexico

By now everyone knows it to be true that Beyonce and Jay-Z tied the knot in New York City on Friday evening. A source close to the couple had already spilled the beans. But, we haven't heard from Beyonce and Jay-Z to make it official true gossip.

It was reported by the reliable source that Jay-Z wanted a private ceremony with only close friends and family attending. The star-studded guests included members from the Destiny Child group, Gwyneth Pathrow, and Chris Martin, the lead singer of Coldplay.



The wedding theme was "all-white" and the wedding ceremony was followed by a lavish party at Jay-Z's penthouse apartment in New York City's TriBeca neighborhood. It was decorated with 60,000 blooming white orchids, shipped from Thailand, and the number "4" which represented Beyonce and Jay-Z's birthday numbers.

Jay-Z, 38, and Beyonce, 26 have been romantically involved since 2002. They never admitted to being a couple, but were photographed together at several locations nationally and internationally.

Sounds like they have a stable relationship and it looks like they will have a very happy marriage. It would be good to see the two have a healthy and long-lasting marriage. Congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z!

March 25 | David Cook | American Idol

American Idol, on March 25th, featured the top 10 contestants performing songs from the year they were born. It was a night of strong performances, but one stole the show.

Born in 1982, David Cook finished out the night with a stunning, brave performance of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.” Cook's rendition was like a ballad with a 'hard rock' twist. Listening to the original "Billie Jean" you probably wouldn't think it would sound good to the ear any other way. You've got to hear this one.

Randy Jackson described it as “original,” “bold” and “molten hot.” Paula Abdul was “blown away” while Simon Cowell, remarking on how it was a great risk changing the song so much, told the singer he was 'brave' and called David Cook “amazing.”
