Why Beyoncé and Jay-Z Did Not Attend Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s Wedding

Prior to the wedding of Kim Kardashian and Kanye “Ye” West, a celebrity scandal involving Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Solange made headlines. Footage leaked of Solange fighting with her brother-in-law in an elevator at the 2014 Met Gala after-party, with Beyoncé attempting to separate them. The family released a statement afterwards, and according to Hollywood Life, this feud may have been the reason Jay-Z and Beyoncé did not attend the wedding. On their joint album “Everything Is Love,” the track “Friends” gave fans an insight into their absence, with Jay-Z rapping, “I ain’t going to nobody for nothin’ when me and my wife beefin’ / I don’t care if the house on fire, I’m dyin’, n****, I ain’t leavin’.”
