Beyonce, supposedly still 29, has allegedly given her husband Jay-Z the most expensive car in the entire world for his 41st birthday last Saturday. The Bugati Veyron Grand Sport costs $2 million dollars and it can’t even go under water, double as a boat, or fly (photos at the end of the post). In fact there’s a car that goes under water that isn’t offered yet, but will probably be cheaper than this. The good news is that this story originated in The Sun, and could be completely made up. It’s hard to fathom anyone dropping two million dollars on a freaking car no matter how rich and flashy they are.
Beyonce Knowles showed just how much she loves her husband Jay-Z by reportedly presenting him with a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, on his birthday. The rap mogul turned 41 on Dec. 4 and to celebrate, The Sun reports his better half bought him one of the world’s fastest and most expensive production cars ever built.
The Veyron Grand Sport is powered by a 16.4-liter engine that produces 1,000 horsepower with a top speed of 253 mph and a 0-60 mph time of just 2.7 seconds. And the price for all that speed and power: a cool $2 million.
Beyonce can certainly afford it. According to Forbes, she made $87 million this year. Jay-Z is no slouch in the earnings department either, he has a business empire and a fortune estimated at $450 million.
The Veyron will add to Jay-Z’s impressive car collection which according to The Sun includes a Maybach 62S, Ferrari F430 Spider and a Pagani Zonda Roadster.

Let’s hope this story is fake, but if it’s not it definitely stands in contrast to the recent news that Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg is going to give away most of his $6.9 billion fortune to charity. And the dude drives a Honda Fit. Now that impresses me way more than a $2 million dollar car.
