04/02/2007 - Beyonce Knowles - New York, NY © Janet Mayer / Photorazzi
Jay-Z has proposed to long-term love Beyoncé Knowles.
The hip-hop star popped the question during a romantic getaway to Cannes, and the singer-and-actress said yes.
The pair are now planning to marry in Hawaii in the autumn.
Beyoncé said: "I want to get married and really want a family - in a perfect world I'd have two boys and a girl.
"You know someone loves you by the way he treats you and respects you. Me and Jay respect each other."
Jay-Z flew to London last night (03.06.07) to watch Beyoncé perform at Wembley on the latest leg of her UK tour.
The 37-year-old hip-hop mogul even cancelled his own promotional tour of his business empire Roc-A-Fella to surprise his 25-year-old fiancée.
Sources say Jay-Z promised Beyonce "the biggest diamond she can fit on her finger".
A source said: "This will be the hip-hop wedding to end all hip-hop weddings."

Yeah I'm gonna have to call BULLSH!T here. First of all, he wouldn't propose without a ring. Secondly, he was at the MTV awards last night so he is obviously not on tour, and how could he have flown all the way to London after the awards?? Assuming the awards ended around 7pm PST (they were over at 10pm EST), London is 8 hours ahead of PST, also assuming he caught a flight right after he left the awards, that would put him there at 3am London time at the very earliest. Hmmm sounds a little fishy to me.
please stop talking crap beyonce came in baby blog and say she will not marry for now in the next 10 years she will get married and have kid she also deny and engagements for now and also no marriage so please get your facts right get the right sources before you tell anybody any thing
WTF just a couple of days ago you were saying beyonce said that she wanted kids 'in ten years' now your saying they are engaged and she WANTS kids (HUH) it dosnt make sense
I just feel that This bitch (Beyounce) is a Delm Gold Gigga! from day one she neva clamed Jay Z, now i feel that all she want is his Money, Diamonds, and houses. JaY a piece of advice for you i think you should Marry Rihhana. Bee n hey Family are just Money Hungry people for real. see Solange married a college football player cos she wants money(Bitch)...... Do yall know that Beyounce is not worth 50 million, or have you heard that see bought a house? or car? all that sheet she has ma Boi Jay gat em.... am not hatn but thats just the fact. Bee a piece of advice for you marry who you love, not just who you respect for him money n all that.
Good Luck
~~Bee~~
Im sorry look at the source, the source is not reliable also they stay gossiping about somethang. the way they look at it, 'if it aint broke why fix it'. Beyonce and Jay arent gettin married. Also beyonce aint gonna rush inyo marriage they get along fine asw is. Solange her sista didnt leave a good example with her marriage, she had a baby and now is divorce!
I am so happy for Jay-Z and Beyounce, they were meant for each other..
I like them as a couple both are very intelligent and creative; its no
telling what they will bring to the table for this world to enjoy.
Thay are both true intertainers, and extremely gifted and artistly
motivated. I give them both my blessings. Most of all honor your
Ring, around this woman no -matter what. I have much love and respect
for the two of you.
Make us Proud. I'm watching...
why don't you people learn how to type or spell?
Christ, are you all a bunch of retards or what?
Have any of u ever realized that Beyonce is EXTREMELY private and if they are secretly engaged the public will be the very last to know? They could be engaged right now for all we know. Why u think we found out they were dating a couple of years after they got together? and jus b/c she said she dont want to get married rite now dont mean that she aint accept his proposal. its calld protectin ur privacy! And theres no laws on how long u can stay engaged, they may get married 10 yrs down the line
Congrats i hope its true. They would give the youth of today a template for what marriage could be.I think they are an admirable couple.

This doesn't matter, they're actually already legally married. They are private about thier personal lives for a reason...
Why would Beyonce marry a loser like Jay-Z anyway? Aside from Kanye West, he's the most disgustingly foul-mouthed, punk gangsta-wannabe, in the hip hop arena of no-talent, ghetto-thugs. Well, except for Eminem, who is an even bigger loser.
Beyonce is being snowed. She can do MUCH better than a punk like J-Z.

How does she keep getting younger than me? When Destiny's Child first came out with the original 4 members I was 16 or 17, the same age as Beyonce and now she is 25 and I'm 27? What?
with Melba. I'm amazed that some of these people even know how to use a computer or for that matter, who Beyonce' is!!
hmmm, who cares what they do? they can get married today or split up tomorrow, who really cares? whether she likes him for his money or for his apparently big soldier its no ones business. all i really like about B is her lace wigs, those wigs she wears really look good and natural and am gonna get myself one.
all you people gossiping and hating should concentrate on how to make that money too, cause at the end of the day if B and J weren't rich and famous no one would be talking about them.
i know some of u would like to respond to this, my mail is sexy1.chocolate@yahoo.com
i am so glad to here that you guy's are going to get married. All i want to know is when do i recieve my invention.monica colson of miami,fl
there was a time when i couldnt stand Beyonce!! But in 2003 i fell in love. she can sing and dance her ass off, but her acting needs improvement. i stand behind her every step of the way. Right now she is the H.B.I.C. so stop hating. if her and jay get married good, if not, better. she dont need him, she has her own $$$$ and can buy her own diamonds. She would be doing him a favor. Dont get me wrong, i love my jay z but i stand behind tough strong broads, Beyonce is the shit i dont care what, while u hating ask this question, who can do it better than her right now?
i think that if she gets married she marry the right amn and some one that will do for her and her family. Jay-z would be the good man for her.
I agree. Its a selling news paper stunt. They are not getting married. They are taking bits and parts from old interviews and pasting them together to make it sound like they are and adding there interpretation of it. Why would you do that knowing when the time comes and it dont happen your artical site loose all credibility? I guess thats not important.....at least until everyone stop coing to read your news.
First of all bee, you need to spell her name correctly. Why she got to be a bitch and all that! Stop Hatin' she's not a gold digger by any means she got her own millions, enough to marry herself. You should really research before you decide to make ignorant comments as such. Beyonce' and Jay-Z compliment one another, so congrats to that.

i think that they should get married and have a family cause they seem really happy 2gether but anyways holla at yo girl
I think that it is really good that they are getting married. I think they really deserve eachother and it takes didication and patience to be in a relationship for 5 yrs and to be in the music industry. I think they are going to be fine. God Bless them.
beyonce and jay-z r the bhest couple going and beyonce wats 3 kids wif him o-ma-god
u go girl i love aaron 4 lyf
I too believe that Beyonce is in it for the money. Look at her parents, she does not know anything else. I think that she definitely had to learn to like him if she actually does. On the other hand, B is probably with him because he accepts her for who she is...a dumb and yet sometimes pretty girl. Have you ever listened to her talk? WOW. I sure they don't even have real conversations. She seems like she would be a pushover and that is probably what Jay-z likes. That and the ability to claim that he has the hottest chick in the game. He likes to be on top and long as no one ever finds out how stupid she is then he will stay with her just to compliment his success. Ya feel me????
I like the pair.Just go on.You will make a great couple
OMG....Yall are all so illiterate, cant spell nor type! Thats sad, one person couldn't spell for SHIT. Get it together, and stop it with all the gossip. If you're going to post stuff on the internet, at least make it be the truth. This blog SUCKS!
jay z dont marry her am your woman she is a money lover
everybody hatein on that dam girl I wouldn't tell nobody my personal business either because they are simple but B keep doing you and god bless you
i am so glad that u guys are finally getting maried. it does matter wat people say about them are still loved. b is a very hard working and sophisticated young lady and thats the wife jay z needs to keep his money rolling. people should be congratulating instead of hating. you guys ave being together for a long while and still going u are better that alot of slutty celebrities that people praises. both of you keep up the good work and i hope to see u some day. but there is a problem we idolise both of u in jamaica and i think we should be tthe place of your wedding. tiffany from jamaica west indies
I truly think that jay-z just wanted to take beyonce's virginty... she so dumb to me. she know damn well he sleeping with rihanna. and there is no way he gone marry her and risk loosing half of his earnings now that he ceo of def jam...he daddy ought to be ashamed of his self teaching her to be a god digga. thats sad though... her daddy want to be be mean to tha otha girls about sex now look at his sweet behoece. he aint got nothing to say now do he? HOV betta think it OVA. he see she strugglin to make a dollar... doin alot of shows and now she got this ugly axx B-PHONE.. like ima pay for that i mean damn you got rightones...what more do you want girl. But when you broke you gota work till yo weave looses it curls right? i'm just sorry but when my younger sista get married before me that would let me know something. but she money hungry so what can you expect. Lets now forget about her take of destiny's child or should i say BEYONCE AND THEM... Holla
Beyonce is worth a couple hundred million dollars on her own. She doesn't need Jay-z's money. Are you an idiot to think that she's a gold digger. Hello, she is one of the top-earners for the last couple of years in entertainment.
Wow I never thought actually be gettin married. But congrats to them. I wonder how there chilld will look like???
I am really happy for Beyonce and Jay Z if they are getting married. They both have a lot to bring to the table and its nice to see a young black couple doing well for themselves.I cant believe how many people on here are hating on Beyonce and Jay Z. The funny thing about it is the people on here who are talikin the most mess cant even spell and they need to go back to school and do something with their own life instead of worrying about other people. As for Beyonce and Jay Z keep making each other happy and i wish you both many more happy years to come.
wwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooowwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i don't think dat will happen coz beyonce love's jay'z and dat is i have to said
i do not think that they are getting married to each other becaus they both have diffrent life styles right know so that is one thing the other is beyonce sister has a kid and also she has said for like alot of times that jay and self are not going to get married i think the reason that is because i read in a nother story that jay hits her so that is one of the reasons she would not want to marrey him. i know that i should not listen to ever thing i read about stars but i just dont like jay but i luv b i think that she is just scared of jay and loits of times that said that she and him have broken up but i did believ that at first but i dont any moree becaus i think that they love each other very much. but i hate that because i hate jay and beyonce i such a pettey girl and i hate that they are togetherbut they are and i have to live with that. i feel so bad for her because she has to kiss him and i dont think that he is really that cute so that is it
I totally agree with justgame4emfellas, Duh people!!! This is the entertainment business, and Beyonce and Jay Z are smart for not putting there business all in the street, for all we know they could already be married!!! Duh duh duh!! and if they are then i hope they last because I love them, they are the coolest couple in the game, so stop hating and get your own lives for crying out loud!! Lol
i love beyonce so of course i cant stand jay-z, i mean hes takin my woman shes mines and i claimed her long b4 her and jayz started hangin out...this annoys me
OK...first of all the people below me, needs to learn how to spell. Second of all, why are you guys hating on Beyonce and Jay-Z? I believe that all of you are just jealous that they are two very well respected African American individuals who can do what they want to do, when they want to do it, and spend whatever amount money they want to. They have a beautiful relationship that no one can break up. So what on the rumors that you have heard in the past. What's now is now!!! And i hope that they do get married and Beyonce have her family that she wants really bad!!! Word of advice; don't hate on someone because they have reached their goals in life, you just try to reach yours. Business comes first before pleasure. So if she didn't want get married 3 yrs ago because she was to busy, that's smart, why do you think she is where every woman and man wants to be now!!! Think about!!! By the way, that's not gold digging for whover said that, that's jux being a wealthy family and playing yopur cards right!!!!
