Jay-Z Will Pay Beyoncé $25 Million If They Split

The marriage of Jay-Z and Beyoncé is for life

It was on NAIJA PIKIN I read about the wedding of Jay-Z and Beyoncé Knowles on April 4, 2008.

There is more to their marriage than meets the eye of the ignorant fan of Mr. and Mrs. Carter. Jay-Z has agreed to pay Beyoncé $25 million and more millions of dollars for spousal support or alimony, child custody, child support, and distribution of property after divorce.

I pray for Jay-Z and Beyoncé to be happily married for life.

You can see all the details of the prenuptial agreements or postnuptial agreements of their matrimonial contract on SOHH.

Hillary's Choice Cuts contains songs that she told the New York Post were some of her favorites, including the Beatles "Hey Jude", Aretha Franklin's "Respect", the Eagles "Take It To The Limit", and U2's "Beautiful Day". "I've got everything -- a total smorgasbord," Senator Clinton said, "I'm a child of the '60s and '70s."


Barack Around The Clock contains music that embodies his cool jazz, Motown roots. "I'm old school, so generally, I'm more of a jazz guy, a Miles Davis, a John Coltrane guy, more of a Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder kind of guy," Obama told New York City radio station Hot 97, "But having said that, I'm current enough that I've got a little bit of Jay-Z, and a little Beyonce."


CEO of BlueBeat.com, Hank Risan, comments: "Of the leading Democratic hopefuls, we can better relate to them not only as politicians, but personally through their expressed musical tastes. Hillary and Barack have chosen songs from artists that helped shape and change American culture. It's good to know that our candidates are still listening."


BlueBeat.com offers listeners the opportunity to create their own music playlists for webcasting, called "Be The DJ." These performances are made available for anyone in the world to enjoy through http://www.bluebeat.com/.

5 Women She Hates

5 Women She Hates

Manage all the women in your life.

~ By the Editors of Men's Health

Jealousy on the part of your significant other can sabotage your best female friendships. Here's how to smooth over your relationship.

The Leggy Coworker

Why she's worried: Your sexy office gal pal has unfettered access to half of your weekday, and your girl fears this face time can spark a cubicle romance.

Ease her fears: Play show and tell. Give your girl a guided tour of the office, introduce her to your coworkers — including Legs — and end at your desk, where she'll find a prominently displayed picture of herself. It's a talisman that wards off flirty office workers, says Dorian Solot, author of I Love Female Orgasm. "It shows her she's on your mind while you're on the clock."

2. The College Cohort

Why she's worried: You spent 4 boozy, sexually charged years with this girl, who knows the secret handshake and dated half of your fraternity. What's more, unlike your girl, she has a standing invitation to game day and poker night.

Ease her fears: Paint the friend as a mascot, not a romantic interest, says Susan F. Benjamin, author of Perfect Phrases for Dealing with Difficult People. And invite your gal to a few college game parties, so she'll see that the cutie sits squarely in your "like-a-sister" category.

3. The Matriarch

Why she's worried: Your woman feels resentful about her own need to impress your mom.

Ease her fears: Ship your ladies off to a wine tasting together (find one in your city at localwineevents.com). Each wants to win the other's approval, which can lead to insecurities and false perceptions, says Gini Graham Scott, Ph.D., author of Disagreements, Disputes and All-out War. A retreat with some vino will melt away any hangups.

4. The Facebook Fox

Why she's worried: You've dutifully declared you're "in a relationship" on your MySpace or Facebook profile. But she worries it means nothing to the harem of cybervixens on your friends list.

Ease her fears: Let her plant a flag in your digital world. If they're not online, too, girlfriends and wives place these sites just a notch above porn. Help her create her own page and bump her up to the top of your friends list.

5. The Gym Goddess

Why she's worried: Your trainer is single and oozes sexuality from every pore. You may say her post-workout chats are harmless, but your girlfriend knows better (and so do you, playa).

Ease her fears: Play matchmaker and set her up with a friend, says Solot. Face it: You're taken, and she's a temptress. Best to try this under-utilized brushoff, which will allow you two to still chat at the gym. The move takes her off your gal's worry list.
