Damn and Dame cant pay his car note.
Love that Black power couple list. They would have more credibility if they were involved in the Black community, etc. like the UNCF, INNER CITY PROJECTS, COMMUNITY OUTREACH,ETC. INSTEAD OF JUST TAKING FROM THE COMMUNITY WITHOUT GIVING BACK. At least Magic Johnson gives back and some others.
@905
do you not watch the news? besides what do they have to do make it rain in the club?
Congrats to J&B.
keep stacking that paper!
I wonder if B will retire from concert preforming in the next year or two..
peace...
Beyonce be the bread winner ofcourse!!!
yea right peachizz
@Capital I,
Don't let Camel fool you, It's no secret, after a certain level of success a man no longer desires a woman's beauty, he's more about that woman's success. How is he gonna be remember in history,who he assoicated himself with, his legacy. Bee-Lee-Dat
No surprise here.....I hope they last.
This is awesome..good for them.
As Jay said I can't knock the hustle. Hell at least someone is making money. So glad the second couple is Black as well, do the damn thing Black people...
Anon 9:05 is ignant and ill-informed!
How the hell do you know what charitable donations they make????? Rich folk like that LOVE and almost HAVE to give chunks of their money away for tax purposes. That why errbody and they momma athletes, entertainers, have foundations or support foundations of some sort! Just because they haven't publicly screamed that they support the average run-of-the-mill, or popularly recognized "Negro" efforts like UNCF or Welfare MOMS on the MOVE, or other causes YOU deem worthy you slam them!
With money like that I'm sure they are giving back to various communities and causes in a great way! 162 MILL??????????
Anon 9:05, I bet yo broke ass won't even drop a fuckn DIME in dem Red Salvation Army kettle's we about to see everywhere!!
@11:04 You sound like an ignorant ghetto cunt. I know being an AIDS infected sperm dump is your definition of community service.
Why does Will and Jada's $85 Million have to be labeled "measley"?
good for them but i'll give a damn when they start giving out free money, until then, who cares???
In this tough economy, it's only young bucks and teenagers drooling over celebrities that don't know they exist.
^^^ agree with you
mo money...mo money...mo money
Is she reaching for a Breathsaver in this pic?
Hope so.
Power couples - who cares, really. These niggaz is Hah-lee-wood, so dat means it's da countdown to when we read about da pending divorce. Hopefully they last and dont' need to become weird as fuck like Will & Jada's strange asses to do da shit.
Great! Now if they would just start manufacturing their "designer" duds in the United States (instead of foreign sweat shops) so laid off, American textile workers will have jobs...you know...the same American people that buy their clothing and> their music...yeah, those people...
Ummm @ Peachizz what could possibly possess you to think that Beyonce is the bread winner??? Hov makes more than her sweety... I bet he still got the "brown paper bag" money!
*Side note* wtf is going on with his hair??? Is that a mini afro?? Hov you're losing my love for you right now!! SMH

lol @ Will bringing in 80 of the 85 mil.
Jada to Will: Here baby. Add this $45.63 I made knitting sweaters to the stack.
Go on and get that paper!
Jay does contribute to charity. He contributes to an organization that builds bathrooms for African school children. This helps the girls not miss school during their time of the month.
Yeh, not even to hate, but you cannot consider Will & Jada a power "couple". Let's see, she got her lil change from dat bullshit boojwah desperate housewives movie, where she played da token sista amongst all dem white women...She got a lil mo' change from da corny hippo voiceover in Madagascar... then oh yeh, her lil punk/heavy metal band (wtf) made a few hunid euro overseas.
The otha 99.5/100ths of da pie was baked by Williford, so you don't qualify just cuz people know yo name, lil momma.

^^^Agree I think alot of that has to do with age as well because isn't Jay Z forty something?
If only Beyaki were as hot as her breath.
Good for them.
Maybe this will open the eyes for the average black man....see what can happen when you have a beautiful black woman by your side
:)
black love is beautiful.
^^^@ anon 1:31pm:
Beauty has nothing to do with it; having a good woman (regardless of color) does. Will and Jada is a perfect example of that because, even though Will in bringing in most of the paper, he'll probably be the first to tell u that he wouldn't have been as successful as he has been without her.
^^^
Actually, Will's boyfriend (who is FINE) probably had a little something to do with Will's success, too.

good for them.
Beegee- Jada said she took the backseat to raise their children and to ensure that their marriage works. With high profile couples like Will and Jada someone has to take a backseat in order for the marriage to last(or at least try)
why the fuck we always gotta "give back" to the community.? Fuck that.. nothing was giving unto me.! & besides... I DONT HAVE NOTHING THAT BELONGS TO THE COMMUNITY.!
