For her 25th birthday, Beyonce Knowles got a very pricey gift from boyfriend Jay-Z. He picked out a 1959 Rolls Royce convertible with an estimated value of $1 million dollars, though the full amount he paid for the car will probably be known only to him and the dealer.
Even with a steep price tag, the gift doesn't quite measure up to the $5.4 million necklace Mariah Carey got from her prince, but it's safe to say that Beyonce could have done a lot worse than this car.

Absolute Power Couple! There's not much more that can be said about them...EVERY woman would love to be Beyonce, and EVERY man would love to be Mr. S.Carter-or at the very least, have their body, money, power, prestige, talent, influence, favor, wisdom, etcetera, etcetera. :)

I guess a girl like beyonce needs to be sure thats it was'nt for the pricey car that cost them real love she need to look beyond for the pricey gift he will give him after ten years from now. Thats would be more pricey!! and i believe Beyonce is a good model for the rest of the women around the world..NO DOUBT

Well, I am a woman and I know for sure I wouldn't want to have Beyonce's life because I love the life I have now!!! Maybe you got some personal issues that you need to deal with.

The car is nice ...but it's not like she will actually be driving it..it's too dan gon expensive. The best thing she can do is sit and look at it.
Nice gift though, when you have no idea what to get the person.

Hey, the car is nice, but I'm getting tired of this whole Beyonce and Jay-Z mess.
Big deal if Beyonce is a pretty girl that loves to shake her butt. She wears way too much make-up and looks a heck of a lot better without IT and those light contacts.
And as a man, no I don't wish to be Jay-Z (or S Dot Carter, Jigga, Hova, Sean, Rockafella, Young or whatever ridiculous name he decides to call himself this week). His talent is way overrated and he looks like the child of Jimmie "J.J." Walker!

I agree what a waste. I would much rather have seen the headline that JAY Z donated his money to a worthwhile cause rather than an automobile. There's still much needed help in New Orleans, and all over the US.....

I think Beyonce's gorgeous, I bet some of you wished you looked anything close to her. I'd take the car, her looks and anything else I could get, including Jay-Z, who cares what he wants to be called this week, he can do that, you sure can't.

As a 25 year old successful female in a relationship with a wealthy musician in his 40's,I can surely indentify, somewhat with the issues these two deal with. Beyonce obviously does not need Jay to buy her things or even to boost her career, so it must be love. However an older man is great but a BITCH to deal with so B deserves EVERYTHING she gets;TRUST ME!!!

I'm a bit disappointed. I think she deserved something that she would not likely go out and buy for herself...like an engagement ring for instance. This car is something that she could've gotten if she wanted to. I really thought he was going to propose to her. But ofcourse, that's up to him. Just putting my 2 cents in. And by the way, I wouldn't be caught dead in that car. I'm more of a lamborghini, ferrari lover.

ENGAGEMENT RING, ENGAGEMENT RING, ENGAGEMENT RING!!!! Beyonce is way too young, sexy and smart to get married right now. Jay-Z is her first real boyfriend in her new life. Damn!!!! Not everyone wants to get married and some people want to just enjoy the comfort of every day life. Relax! They are taking their time and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I think it's a lot better to see a stable Hollywood couple than reading about these celebrity hookers and male hoes that are switching fiances and partners every other day.

Does anyone else think Jay Z looks like the alien dancing with Will Smith at the end of Men In Black?
