As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Beyoncé and Jay Z had been living separate lives. “Jay Z recently told his entire staff that he will not be needing them for another month!” an insider told RadarOnline.com. “As Beyoncé prepares for her upcoming tour, Jay Z said that he is going to use the time to take care of his own business.”
Roy’s ex-husband, rapper Damon Dash, previously spoke out about the elevator incident. “If he was trying to holler at my wife … that’s kinda f*cked up,” Dash laughed in a video interview with Hip Hop Motivation after the MET Gala party fight. Dash and Jay Z had a falling out when their label, Roc-a-Fella Records, was bought out by Def Jam. “I thought it was funny,” he said of the Solange Jay Z fight. “Jay’s the kind of guy who doesn’t move or nothing like that that much. He just don’t have many uncool moments.”
