How old was Beyoncé when she met Jay-Z?

Beyoncé is an American singer, songwriter, and dancer who is married to Jay-Z, the hip-hop artist, producer and multi-millionaire entrepreneur.

Little is known about their first meeting and early relationship, but Beyoncé once revealed that the pair met when she was only 18 years old.

The couple sat next to each other on a plane while both attending the 2000 MTV Spring Break festival and Jay-Z later rapped about the moment in his 2018 song “Everything Is Love.

At the time, Beyoncé was a member of the girl group Destiny’s Child. After a year of friendship and constant phone calls, Beyoncé and Jay-Z decided to put their friendship to the test romantically.

According to more lyrics from Jay-“Everything Z’s Is Love,” their first official date was at celeb-favourite restaurant Nobu, and the rapper brought a friend to dinner. In the song, he refers to this decision as his “first foolish mistake.”

Beyoncé and Jay-Z married quietly on April 4, 2008. They are well-known for their private relationship, though they appear to have relaxed since 2013.

Jay-Z and Beyoncé worked together on several tracks. As of April 2014, the couple had sold a total of 300 million records.
