Adele expertly raps Nicki Minaj,dances to Beyonce at party post-divorce announcement - Fox News

Posted: 05 Jun 2019 11:23 AM PDT

The question on every Adele fan's mind is: When is she going to drop new music?

The multi-Grammy winner has been keeping a low profile lately and dealing with some personal issues. She announced in April that she's splitting from husband Simon Konecki after two years of marriage. They also share a son together.

But, the 31-year-old isn't letting this emotionally difficult time stop her from enjoying life. On Tuesday night, Adele stopped by a party in Los Angeles and covered a song from another iconic musician: Nicki Minaj.

DETAILS ABOUT ADELE'S SPLIT FROM SIMON KONECKI REVEALED: 'IT JUST DIDN'T WORK OUT'

When handed the mic, Adele belted out Minaj's verse on the song "Monster."

Her skills shouldn't come as a surprise because back in 2016, she proved her affinity for Minaj's music on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" and expertly rapped all the lyrics on "Carpool Karaoke." After proving her skills, Adele also danced to Beyonce's song "Formation" with a group of people.

Back in March, Adele was spotted at a gay bar in New York City with friend and actress Jennifer Lawrence, dancing and drinking with fellow patrons.

ADELE POSTS MEME OF HERSELF FOLLOWING SPLIT FROM HUSBAND

This next year is going to be a big one for the Oscar-winner. On social media new addressed her newly single status, "30 tried me so hard but I'm owning it and trying my hardest to lean in to it all."

"No matter how long we're here for life is constant and complicated at times. I've changed drastically in the last couple years and I'm still changing and that's okay," she wrote.

"31 is going to be a big ol' year and I'm going to spend it all on myself. For the first time in a decade I'm ready to feel the world around me and look up for once," Adele continued.

"Be kind to yourself people we're only human, go slow, put your phone down and laugh out loud at every opportunity. Learning to REALLY truly love yourself is it, and I've only just realized that that is more than enough. I'll learn to love you lot eventually."

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are feeling that Golden State of mind on Wednesday evening.

The A-list couple sat courtside at Game 3 of the NBA Finals with the Toronto Raptors facing off against the Golden State Warriors. As of publishing time, the series is currently tied 1-1 and this is the first game of the finals being played in Oakland, Calif.

Bey and Jay arrived at Oracle Arena a few minutes into the first quarter and immediately caused social media to erupt in quite the frenzy. Even the NBA's official Twitter account posted about their arrival.

The "Formation" singer and her husband looked stylish as always as they sat next to Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob on the court. Jay-Z wore a black sweatshirt, black pants and a black baseball cap while Bey stunned in a gold dress and gold heels. She accessorized with a by FAR leather clutch purse (retails at $625).

Although neither one wore jerseys for a specific team, Beyoncé's golden outfit could provide some hints as to who they're both rooting for (it's safe to say they're team Dub Nation.)

Bey and Jay attend a number of basketball games each season. They attended playoff games when Beyoncé's home team the Houston Rockets played against the Warriors. She posted a number of photos on Instagram of her attendance at the game. Last year they also went to other match-ups at Oracle Arena, including when the Warriors played against the New Orleans Pelicans. She glamorously sat courtside with her daughter Blue Ivy at the 2018 NBA All Star Game as well.

Jay-Z used to have a stake in the Brooklyn Nets, but he sold his shares in 2013.

It's been a big news week for the couple. On Sunday, the 37-year-old and Blue Ivy channeled their inner Lion Queens at Tina Knowles' Wearable Art Gala. It was perfect timing because on Monday, we got to hear Bey's voice as Nala in The Lion King remake for the first time. Needless to say, we'll be counting down the days until July 19.

Also on Monday, Forbes reported that Jay-Z was officially a billionaire thanks to his many business ventures and prolific music career.

While Beyoncé and Jay-Z made quite a splash at the game on Wednesday, there's one other basketball-loving celebrity who wasn't there: Drake. The Toronto native is the Raptors' global ambassador and his love for the team has never been more evident. The "God's Plan" rapper received some flak a few weeks ago when he was seen massaging Toronto coach Nick Nurse at one point in the game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

But with the Raptors in the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history, Drake was not about to turn down a chance to troll the other teams. During Game 1 of the Finals, he specifically called out Warriors star Steph Curry. He did so by wearing a signed Dell Curry jersey to the game. Dell played on the Raptors from 1999-2002 and is Steph's father.

But all's fair in love and basketball because the Warriors apparently played Pusha T's diss track about Drake "The Story of Adidon" as they warmed up before the game.

Beyonce Glares At Mystery Woman Talking To Jay-Z At NBA Finals Game & Twitter Goes Wild - Hollywood Life

Posted: 05 Jun 2019 08:11 PM PDT

Beyonce and Jay-Z got major attention when they attended Game 3 of the NBA Finals on June 5 and fans noticed one woman who seemed to get on Bey's nerves after she got in her personal space to chat up her man.

Beyonce, 37, didn't seem happy at all about sitting next to a mystery woman who was trying to chat up her husband Jay-Z, 49, during Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Toronto Raptors and the Golden State Warriors in Oakland, CA on June 5, and Twitter followers noticed it right away! The singer appeared to have a glaring look on her face when the woman leaned over to talk to Jay at one point during the game and even seemed to shuffle in her seat to push her over! Although her look and shuffle could have purely been a coincidence and related to something other than the woman, many tweets in response to an ESPN video showing the memorable moment suggest otherwise.

"beyoncé was not feeling that girl," one tweet read. "Excuse Me, Why does that lady keep trying to talk to Jay Z? BEY not having this first she shifts in her seat, A Deep Breath, then the slight Eye Roll, next she sorts of shifts forward in her seat as to put a total Block on that Bih! Ok #Bey I U Girl gon Handle ur Business," another read. "had to adjust herself in the seat she was so annoyed ," a third follower observed.

The reactions on Twitter are understandable considering both Beyonce and Jay have been very open about having a marriage that has encountered ups and downs in the past. It's definitely possible that the "Halo" crooner may have seen the woman's actions as disrespectful as some other fans indicated, but with all she and her hubby have overcome already, we're sure their marriage is one of their first priorities no matter how many annoyances they may encounter!

It's always great to see Jay and Bey at public events whenever they show up to them and this meme-worthy one proved to be one people will be talking about for ages!

HE WAS famously raised in a poverty-stricken New York ghetto and turned to rap to escape a life of drugs and violence.

And this week, Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, has become the first billionaire in hip hop after striking gold with investments in music, property, fashion and tech.

According to a new report released by Forbes, Jay-Z has taken the crown as the world's richest rapper following a two-year battle with P Diddy in the race to accumulate their first billion.

The rise in fortune of the 49-year-old husband of Beyonce is all the more impressive given his deprived start in life.

He was raised on the notorious Marcy Houses projects in Brooklyn by a single mum after his dad left when he was 11, survived being shot at, lost friends to death and jail, and famously dealt crack cocaine which he credits with honing his future business nous.

"I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer," he once told Vanity Fair.

In the ultimate rag-to-riches tale, it was music that helped propel him out a dire situation, and he went from selling CDs from his car to founding the hugely successful Roc-A-Fella Records in 1995, selling over 100m records and nabbing 22 Grammy Awards.

The rapper husband of Beyonce now lives a luxury lifestyle a world away from his poverty-stricken New York upbringing

Alongside this, Jay-Z founded entertainment company Roc Nation, created his own champagne brand, bought music streaming service Tidal, and has invested in tech start-ups like Uber.

And the man who once rapped "I'm not a businessman, I'm a business, man" certainly knows how to spend the fruits of his labour - splashing his cash on a £69m mansion and a pair of £2k animal skin trainers.

£69m Bel-Air mansion with recording studio

The rapper splits his time between three stunning homes in the United States.

There's the £69m Bel-Air home with eight bedrooms, eleven bathrooms, four pools, a 15-car garage, bulletproof windows and a recording studio.

His £20m waterfront home in the East Hamptons boasts seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms with heated bathtubs, as well as imported Venetian floors and 18th-century French Louis XV carved stone fireplaces worth £49,000 each.

Jewellery collection including £190k solid gold chain necklace

However, it's his bling where the star really splashes out.

There's his iconic £191,000 solid gold chain necklace, a Hublot Big Bang watch worth an estimated £60,000 and a £10,000 panther ring from Cartier.

£26k sapphire ring 'push present' for Bey

The rapper sure knows how to treat one of the most adored women on the planet - he regularly flies Beyonce on romantic trips to Paris where they stay in the £15,350-a-night penthouse suite at Hotel Le Meurice with incredible views of the Eiffel Tower.

He also bought her a 1959 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud, worth £767,000, for her 25th birthday, and for the 2017 birth of their twins gave her a £26,000 blue sapphire ring as a 'push present'.

Family holidays on £3m private Bahamas island and £50m yacht

Jay-Z goes just as big on his well-deserved downtime, and jets to a number of exotic locations with his 37-year-old pop star wife, their seven-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, and one-year-old girl and boy twins Rumi and Sir.

He has purchased his own £3m private island in the Bahamas, according to Hello! magazine.

In 2013, Jay-Z treated Beyonce for her 32nd birthday to a stay on a £275,000 triple-decker yacht with sauna, pool and a helipad. They got through £23,000-worth of champagne during the five-day trip from Spain to Italy.

And in 2015, they travelled on £50m yacht, Galatica Star - owned by Nigerian energy magnate Kola Aluko - which can sleep 12 guests for £580,000 a week.

Designer wardrobe including £3k suits and £2k animal skin trainers

Once known for his tracksuits and caps, Jay-Z has upgraded his wardrobe in recent years to feature a range of designers.

He now dresses in £3,000 Tom Ford suits, £550 Givenchy T-Shirts and animal skin "Brooklyn Zoo" Jordan 1s trainers costing £2,000.

Travels for work on £30m private jet

Jay-Z keeps up with his busy social schedule with the help of a £30m Bombardier Challenger 850 private jet.

It comes with a kitchen, living room and two bathrooms, according to The Telegraph, and is believed to have ferried Beyonce to London for the 2014 Brit Awards.

Spends £78k on champagne on boozy nights out

The music mogul has become known for his lavish partying.

In February 2018, he spent £10,000 on dinner in New York for the birthday of his friend Juan "OG" Perez, the president of Roc Nation Sports, before paying for the £70,000 bill - which comprised of 40 bottles of his own Ace of Spades champagne brand - at a bar afterwards, and left an £8,600 tip for the staff.

But in 2011, he footed a £192,000 bill for his Watch The Throne listening party, and in 2013 spent £76,800 on an apparently ordinary night boozing at an Atlanta nightclub.

He also likes to dine at some of the most exclusive restaurants, including Le Cirque in New York - which invented the crème brûlée - and where a steak costs £44 - which is pretty cheap for him...

Personal barber who travels around the world with him

Jay-Z can also afford to pay the best people to help him look sharp at all times.

20 Inspiring Beyoncé Quotes About Motherhood - Yahoo Lifestyle

Posted: 05 Jun 2019 07:45 AM PDT

Click here to read the full article.

From the outside looking in, Beyoncé Knowles Carter is probably the least relatable celebrity mom of all — what with her family vacations on private yachts in Europe and her $7,560 maternity attire. But when you strip Queen Bey of her beauty, fame and unparalleled talent, you get a regular-ish 30-something mama who's like the rest of us: loving of her kids, amazed by the miracle of pregnancy and childbirth, and overwhelmed by the joy of raising children.

We've rounded up Beyoncé's most inspiring quotes about motherhood. The mom of three has talked at length over the years about her miscarriages, healthy pregnancies, giving birth and being a mom to oldest daughter Blue and twins Rumi and Sir, and her thoughts on all of the above are surprisingly relatable, even though her lifestyle is anything but.

1. When she shared the heartbreaking details of her miscarriage

In the star's 2013 HBO documentary Life Is But a Dream, Bey opened up for the first time about the pregnancy she lost before the 2012 birth of daughter Blue.

"About two years ago, I was pregnant for the first time. And I heard the heartbeat, which was the most beautiful music I ever heard in my life," she said. "I flew back to New York to get my checkup — and no heartbeat. Literally the week before I went to the doctor, everything was fine, but there was no heartbeat."

From there, the Grammy winner put her feelings into her music: "I went into the studio and wrote the saddest song I've ever written in my life. And it was actually the first song I wrote for my album. And it was the best form of therapy for me, because it was the saddest thing I've ever been through."

2. When she explained why she wanted to open up about her loss

When Oprah interviewed Bey later in 2013, she explained why it was so important for her to talk publicly about her miscarriage.

"There are so many couples that go through that and it was a big part of my story. It's one of the reasons I did not share I was pregnant the second time [with Blue], because you don't know what's going to happen. And that was hard, because all of my family and my friends knew and we celebrated. It was hard," Beyoncé said.

3. When she got emotional about her mother/daughter bond with Blue Ivy

In the same Oprah interview, Bey shared that she felt a bond with her little girl almost immediately.

"My daughter introduced me to myself," she said. "You know, my mother and I are so close, and I always prayed that I would have that type of relationship with my daughter. And she's still a baby, but the connection I had with her when I was giving birth was something that I've never felt before."

4. When she called pregnancy "the most beautiful experience of my life"

In Life Is But a Dream, the stunning star also discussed the beauty of carrying her daughter, Blue.

"[It was] the most beautiful experience of my life. It was amazing. I felt like God was giving me a chance to assist in a miracle. You're playing a part in a much bigger show. And that's what life is. It's the greatest show on Earth," she said.

5. When she was so thankful she got to experience a healthy pregnancy

"Pregnancy is the most incredible gift anyone can have and I'm so happy I'm a woman," the star told E! News in a 2011 interview. "Men, I feel bad, they don't get to experience this. It's incredible."

6. When she understood the struggle working moms face

Yes, even superstars realize it's not easy for everyday mamas to balance our careers with our families.

"I have so much admiration for women who are mothers, who balance family and work," the "Single Ladies" singer told Cosmopolitan UK in 2011. "I see them and I have this word in my head — respect. I also look to learn. I see these women and I think, 'Yes, it can be balanced, it can all work out.' I do believe that it's possible to have it all — work, a career, babies. It's all a question of being very organized. That's what I'm getting my head around."

7. When she shared the benefits of breastfeeding

In 2012, when Bey was crowned People magazine's Most Beautiful Woman, she revealed she lost the baby weight by breastfeeding — she nursed Blue Ivy for 10 weeks — and encouraged other mamas to do the same.

"I lost most of my weight from breastfeeding and I encourage women to do it. It's just so good for the baby and good for yourself," she said.

8. When she hit the nail on the head about how motherhood has changed her

Beyoncé said she found a newfound purpose after becoming a mother.

"It just gives you purpose, and all of the things that my self-esteem was associated with, it's all completely different," she told Anderson Cooper in 2012. "I realized why I was born and more than anything all of the things I want to pass onto my child, and the best way of doing that is not by preaching or telling her but showing her by example."

9. When she admitted she and Jay-Z love changing diapers

In the same interview, Bey confessed that not even Mr. and Mrs. Carter are above diaper duty.

"Actually, [Jay-Z] is very good. We both [change diapers]. I love changing diapers, I love it. I love every moment of it, it's so beautiful. I love it all," she said.

10. When she got real about what was going through her mind during labor

Bey got super-philosophical in her 2013 Vogue interview, in which she revealed how she mentally got through labor with Blue.

"I felt like when I was having contractions, I envisioned my child pushing through a very heavy door. And I imagined this tiny infant doing all the work, so I couldn't think about my own pain… We were talking. I know it sounds crazy, but I felt a communication."

11. When she asserted that giving birth was her greatest accomplishment

The star told Garage magazine in 2016 that her proudest moment had nothing to do with her career.

"Out of everything I've accomplished, my proudest moment, hands down, was when I gave birth to my daughter Blue," she said.

12. When she said being called Mama is the best thing ever

"I just adore being a mother, hearing [Blue Ivy] say 'Mama' and call me when she needs something," she told Shape in 2013. "It makes me feel like I have a real purpose here."

13. When she said family is more important than everything

This sweet confession came via the singer's "Self-titled" YouTube series, in which she discussed her 2013 self-titled album.

"I have a lot of awards, and I have a lot of these things. And they're amazing, and I worked my ass off. I worked harder than probably everybody I know to get those things. But nothing feels like my child saying, 'Mommy!' Nothing feels like when I look my husband in the eyes."

14. When she understood the simple joy of waking up every day to your kid

"When I wake up in the morning, the best thing in the world is seeing her face," Beyoncé told the NFL Network's Super Bowl Live show in 2013. "She's starting to talk. It's just such a beautiful time in my life to have a child and every day see something new and see her learn something new."

15. When she accepted her post-baby body

Queen Bey told Vogue in 2013 that she had "no shame" about her post-baby body.

"I just feel my body means something completely different. I feel a lot more confident about it," she said. "Even being heavier, thinner, whatever. I feel a lot more like a woman. More feminine, more sensual. And no shame."

16. When she confessed she wanted her kids to have normal childhoods

Before the twins were born, Beyoncé told Good Morning America in 2013 that she wanted more kids — and she hoped they could live as normal lives as possible despite the fame and fortune.

"I would like more children. I think my daughter needs some company. I definitely love being big sister," she said. "I am very protective. I just want to make sure that she can have a healthy, safe, normal life. In the back of my mind, she's my priority. And life is completely different now. I feel really, really just lucky that I can still do what I love, and now have a way bigger meaning. And that's to be her mother."

17. When she announced she was pregnant with twins

The most-liked Instagram photo of all time was Beyonce's February 2017 post in which she revealed she was expecting twins.

"We would like to share our love and happiness," she wrote in a caption. "We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes."

18. When she got real about her unplanned C-section

Though her first labor and delivery seemed pretty blissful, the second was anything but, and Bey revealed in her September 2018 Vogue cover story that she had to have an emergency C-section with the twins.

"I was swollen from toxemia and had been on bed rest for over a month. My health and my babies' health were in danger, so I had an emergency C-section," she said.

19. When she gave herself time to recover the second time around

Three months after Beyoncé had Blue, she was back to performing. But after the birth of Rumi and Sir, she realized how important it was to give her body time to recover, she said in the same Vogue interview.

"After the birth of my first child, I believed in the things society said about how my body should look. I put pressure on myself to lose all the baby weight in three months, and scheduled a small tour to assure I would do it. Looking back, that was crazy," she said.

"I needed time to heal, to recover," she added. "During my recovery, I gave myself self-love and self-care, and I embraced being curvier. I accepted what my body wanted to be… I was patient with myself and enjoyed my fuller curves. My kids and husband did, too."

20. When she really proved she's just like us because she too has a post-baby "FUPA"

But perhaps our favorite part of the Vogue interview was Bey accepting her body's imperfections — and admitting she's got a "mommy pouch" and a FUPA (look it up) like the rest of us.

"To this day my arms, shoulders, breasts and thighs are fuller. I have a little mommy pouch, and I'm in no rush to get rid of it. I think it's real," Beyoncé told the magazine. "Whenever I'm ready to get a six-pack, I will go into beast zone and work my ass off until I have it. But right now, my little FUPA and I feel like we are meant to be."

21. When she got real about ger life-threatening pregnancy

In her 2019 Netflix documentary, Homecoming, Bey opened up about how her difficult pregnancy with her twins almost cost her and one of her baby's lives.

"My body went through more than I knew it could. I was 218 pounds the day I gave birth. I had an extremely difficult pregnancy. I had high blood pressure. I developed toxemia, preeclampsia, and in the womb, one of my babies' heart beats paused a few times, so I needed to get an emergency C-section," she said.

22. When she didn't feel the same career-wise after her twins' birth

After her twins' birth in 2017, Bey didn't feel the same career-wise. In Homecoming, the singer opened up about how she felt less motivated to push herself in her career because of her newborn, which proved difficult when she was rehearsing non-stop for her Coachella 2018 performance.

"My mind was not there," she said. "My mind wanted to be with my children. People don't see the sacrifice. I would dance and go off to the trailer and breastfeed the babies. The days I could I would bring the children."

A version of this story was originally published in September 2018.
