I know you’re going to yell at me, but I loved Beyonce and Lady Gaga’s collaborations on “Videophone” and “Telephone”. It felt like two great pop artists doing great pop music together. Are the songs good? Well, that’s a matter of taste, but I will admit grooving to both, and I think “Videophone” is one the sexiest songs Bey has ever done. Beyond the actual music, I enjoy the fact that Bey and Gaga seemed to “get” each other, and from all accounts, they were and are very friendly with each other. According to The Sun, they’re totally close enough for Gaga to send Bey a big, expensive birthday present. For Bey’s 29th birthday a few days ago, Gaga sent her a DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED WHIP. For the love of God.
DON’T be surprised if JAY-Z clears his diary for the next week. Because his missus BEYONCE has some new toys to play with.
LADY GAGA gave the star a custom-made diamond whip with bra and knickers to match for her 29th birthday on Saturday.
GaGa, who splashed out thousands on the gift, presented it to the singer in Jay-Z’s dressing room after he played with EMINEM in Detroit, in the US, last week. She also sang Happy Birthday to her pal before opening a bottle of bubbly.
A source said: “GaGa wanted to give her something special. The whip was made out of hundreds of diamonds and leather. When Beyonce received it she squealed with excitement. The dressing room was decorated with balloons and banners and a lot of champagne had been put on too.”
Rappers 50 CENT, DR DRE and DRAKE were also there as they’re part of the line-up for Eminem and Jay-Z’s Home & Home tour. It must have been a big dressing room.

F-ck, wouldn’t you love to be at that birthday party? Gaga, Bey, Jay, 50 Cent, Dre and Drake? And Eminem too, probably. How could you not get pregnant? I bet those dudes and Gaga got along famously, don’t you? 50 Cent, in particular, would be my guess for the dude who would adore Gaga.
Regarding the diamond-encrusted whip… Gaga loves to have things encrusted with diamonds, for some reason. She had that lobster headpiece encrusted with diamonds as well. Bitch needs to save her money. And I’m saying that as a fan – I hope for her career longevity, but she needs some better business sense.
Also: Bey’s twenty-ninth birthday? Or her “twenty-ninth” birthday? How many years has this girl been in her twenties? Like, fifteen, right?
I love your enthusiasm and how you love their collaborations, Kaiser!
I can’t say which I like better, Beyonce or Lady Gaga.. Telephone or Videophone.. They’re both great in their own ways and the songs are just diamonds!
On another note, that’s one helluva gift!
If Beywoulf is 29, then I’m forever 21!
She’s seriously claiming to be only 29? I’m going to be 30 in a month and there is no way she is younger than I am!
Beyonce is 29, just like Lady Gaga is 24. And I’m Jesus.
Yeah, Beyonce is older than 29 for sure.
Why the skepticism about her age? She seems 29 to me…
I know, I know, not the point of this story but when I read things like this, I can’t help but think, dammmmn, what would the money you paid for that dumbass whip be able to do in someone’s life? I know it’s their money, they give to charities, blah, blah, blah…but still….
I think her age is accurate, or very close. I’m ten years older than her and she was definitely younger than me back when Destiny’s Child first got popular. If she’s not 29, she’s not much older.
She is 29. She was a teenager when Destiny’s Child started. I remember watching an interview with them and they were going on about eating whatever they wanted to and I thought, “of course you can, you’re teenagers.”
What would you do if you had to buy Beyonce a gift? She has everything. Maybe a better looking husband would be nice.
gaga so channeling madonna in that pic. holy shitballs – she looks just like her
Beyonce has been 29 for 10 years!
dear gaga,
thank you for the diamond studded whip. it is the perfect present for me – how did you know? you are such a thoughtful friend. i will think of you every time jay-z and i use it. thanks again!
love
beyonce
1974 does not a 29 year old make.
http://www.hollyscoop.com/beyonce/beyonces-been-lying-about-her-age_8614.aspx
yeah.. no way is she 29… been lying about her age forever..
Did she go to school? Shouldn’t there be people who went to say Kindergarten with her? 1974 would make her 36, she seems to be 29 to me but I have heard this rumor before 🙂
“How could you *not* get pregnant?” hahahahahahaha, Kaiser the shit you say really gets me sometimes. That was hilarious. 🙂
Two of the most uninteresting corporate shills masquerading as musicians in the same room. Perhaps they can compare their product endorsements. I liked it better when musicians partied got stoned in private were ignored by wall street and in turn ignored wall street. Funny, much of that music has lasted for several generations; anyone want to take bets on whether gaga and bouncy’s stuff will be played, covered, listened to several generations down the road? Media whores both.
she’s 36 actually…lmao!
Does anyone have an ancestry.com membership? We can solve the problem immediately. Her birth certificate is up there but I can’t log in!
Weird. That last picture of Gaga makes me think that it’s too bad Brittany Murphy died, she could have played Gaga in a biopic, they look so much alike.
scariness.
Who cares how old she is? What difference does it really make? Women lie about their age all the time. I’m way more interested in the gift. I would love something like that for my b-day too >:D
Tracy: the article you linked to got updated to say that the document could not be verified.
I totally remember being in fifth grade when she was a teen. She’s 29.
@chasingadalia thanks 🙂
Totally believe Beyonce is in her twenties. She was 18 or 19 when she first started dating Jay-Z. People made a huge deal about it because he is so much older than her. And if you don’t believe she is that young, go here to watch Destiny’s Child Bills, Bills, Bills from 1999: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LP3u6Pd7XKo&feature=channel
She is a lot thinner than she is now and she def looks really young.
Wait… how many time has she turned 29…?
I know I’m not crazy…I know I heard she already has.. SEVERAL times, it feels!
@Amy,
You are correct. B is definitely 29. I remember when her album “B-Day” came out a few years back to celebrate her 25th birthday. The years DO add up. She’s just been in the game long (she was signed to major labels when she was in her teens).
Beyonce was very young in Destiny’s child but JayZ is too old for – he is 41 and she is now only 29 – been with him for years (she was like 20 at the time??) and the image of her and him with the Whip is ICKY….
@Jover, word to your entire post.
I think you mean two overrated pop artists…
ALL celebs lie about their age. DUH. It gives their career longevity. And people will believe anything they see on t.v. Just like they believe that these talentless hacks are.. talented?
