It looks like Jay-Z’s days of big pimping are done. The diamond flashing rap mogul and his superstar girlfriend Beyonce recently took out a marriage license in Scarsdale, N.Y. I suppose the couple are finally crazy in love enough to tie the knot after several years of dating. As a massive Jay-Z fan I’m happy for the guy, and hope things work out better than most celebrity relationships seem to.

I’ll never quite understand how these two ended up together. Beyonce is gorgeous and rich and while Jay-Z is by no means the troll under the bridge, he isn’t the most handsome of fellows. However, this gorgeous girl/mediocre guy scenario pisses me off way less than when I see the same scenario but with ordinary people. Maybe it’s the fact that I know I couldn’t pull Beyonce, but that I probably could pull that leggy brunette I saw holding hands with a Moby wannabe downtown last weekend.

Oh well, congratulations to Jay-Z and Beyonce, we’ll be sure to pour out some Cristal Armand de Brignac (that’s the gold bottle with the ace of spades) to celebrate.
