Jay Z and I got together on Valentine’s Day to talk about life and music. One thing led to another and we ended up discussing the one thing that he doesn’t usually talk about with strangers: his famous wife.
Bea: Hi Jay Z, thanks for doing this with me.
Jay Z: No problem.
Bea: It’s Valentine’s day. Are you doing something special with your wife?
Jay Z: We’ll probably go out for dinner someplace nice.
Bea: So, no. That’s too bad.
*Silence*
Bea: Do you remember what you did on your first date with Beyonce? I bet it was special.
Jay Z: No.
Bea: Don’t say that, I’m sure it was.
Jay Z: I don’t remember what we did.
Bea: What?? You don’t remember your first date with your wife??!
Jay Z: No.
Bea: That’s okay. Don’t feel bad about it.
*Silence*
Bea: What is the best compliment you have ever received from Beyonce?
Jay Z: [Pause] That I’m a good father.
Bea: Awww. I was hoping for something sexual, but that’s good too.
*Silence*
Bea: When you are alone, do you ever imagine that Beyonce is next to you?
Jay Z: No.
Bea: I do. Sometimes.
Jay Z: [silence]
Bea: It’s not sexual.
*Silence*
Bea: I respect her too much.
*Silence*
Bea: I’m just—
Jay Z: I GET IT! Next question.
Bea: What animal would you like to go out with?
Jay Z: Okay. I’m done.
