The biography revealed that Beyonce and Jay Z broke up for a year because of sexy singer Rihanna.

American journalist J Randy Taraborrelli shared this secret in his best-selling biography Becoming Beyoncé: The Untold Story. A friend of the powerful singer couple Beyonce – Jay Z told the author about Beyonce’s jealousy since Rihanna entered the entertainment industry and met Jay Z.

In 2005, when Beyonce and Jay Z had been dating for 5 years, Rihanna appeared. The sexy girl from Barbados was only 17 years old and was asking Jay Z’s company to record her new single Pon De Replay. Jay Z appreciated Rihanna’s talent and wanted to help her become famous.

As a way to polish Rihanna’s name, they spread rumors that she was dating Jay Z. However, Beyonce was confused by these rumors and began to doubt her boyfriend. The arguments that occurred caused the “Queen Bee” and Jay Z to break up.

Jay Z was very close to Rihanna.

The author shared: “Beyonce is not sure what really happened between Jay Z and Rihanna. They ended up breaking up for a while. They were apart for about a year. In fact, Jay Z has a reputation as a ‘bad boy’ but he did nothing shady with Rihanna”.

The couple later reunited when Jay Z tried to show his love and wholehearted care for Beyonce. In 2007, the couple got married and their married life was very sweet. However, Rihanna still haunted Beyonce like a “ghost”. That is why the elevator fight happened in May 2014 between Beyonce’s sister and Jay Z.

At that time, after the Met fashion gala in New York, Jay Z told Beyonce that he wanted to go alone to the party hosted by Rihanna. However, his sister-in-law Solange Knowles, who is very stubborn, could not accept this. Solange asked her brother-in-law: “Why don’t you go home?”. After a few words, Solange rushed at Jay Z and punched him while Beyonce stood still and watched. This scuffle was accidentally recorded by the camera and leaked.

Jay Z got out of the elevator with a face still in shock after being slapped in the face by his sister-in-law. Meanwhile, Solange walked ahead angrily while Beyonce smiled in the middle.

However, after this scandal, Beyonce’s family members soon made up with each other. Because, the author affirmed, “Jay Z and Rihanna are just friends”.
