The "Beyonce is preggers" rumors have been pretty rampant lately, especially when she cancelled a recent concert due to alleged dehydration and exhaustion -- but a source close to the couple revealed it may not be fiction after all.

Jay-Z, or Shawn Carter to his family and friends, is a 17-time Grammy winning recording artist, a businessman with an almost $500 million net worth and the husband of Beyonce. And, if that wasn't enough, Jay-Z has the ability to travel through time.

There won't be any more alleged Illuminati heirs anytime soon. Sources close to Beyonce and Jay-Z are scoffing at rumors that the Queen Bey has another baby in her hive.

Much like Nic Cage and his 1800s counterpart, Jay-Z also has a historical look-alike, although his is from 1930s Harlem.

TIME Magazine has unveiled its annual Most Influential People list, which is comprised of five separate categories: Artists, Leaders, Pioneers, Titans and Icons. While the list itself isn't surprising -- media mainstays like Jennifer Lawrence, Jay-Z, Lena Dunham and Frank Ocean all landed spots -- what was intriguing is what other notable people wrote about them.

Everyone wondering why Jay-Z went from rapping about selling crack in Brooklyn to about rubbing shoulders and sampling truffles with Barack Obama in D.C., you can thank his bank accounts -- and Beyonce. The couple have broken the $1 billion mark in their net worth. Bet that's how she afforded those solid gold nips.

Hell hath no fury like a President with an idiotic press corps scorned. When Jay-Z dissed Barack Obama in his new track, 'Open Letter,' the White House responded. And it was hilarious.

In response to complaints that Jay-Z and Beyonce illegally vacationed in the communist, cigar-making country of Cuba (despite getting government permission to do so), Mr. Carter has responded in a rather disappointing way: with a whiny song called 'Open Letter.' You can check out the audio below, in which Hova laments the uselessness of politicians -- okay, as a whole, he's not wrong about that --

After returning from their romantic anniversary vacay in Cuba (which had everyone up in arms), seems Jay-Z now has plans to buy wife Beyonce her own island. Because when you're Jay-Z and have a $227,000 American Express balance, picking up some flowers at the gas station last-minute just isn't going to cut it.

Jay-Z and Beyonce celebrated five years of wedded bliss in Cuba last week, but that pesky Communist regime thing wound up garnering them a whole lot of criticism.

Beyonce and Jay-Z are celebrating five years of marital bliss -- a near lifetime by Hollywood standards -- and they rang it in with a bang. Hov and Bey partied it up in Havana, Cuba, where they were mobbed by commoners because well, it's King Bey and one half of the Throne. That's what happens.

Since Jay-Z and wife Beyonce don't have enough on their plates -- what with being Grammy-winning recording artists, singing for presidents, going on tour with Justin Timberlake and being the face of clothing lines -- Jay-Z has now teamed up with a sports agency to represent the best of the best. We imagine Bey and Mr. Carter's morning ritual starts a little something like this... BEYONCE: Gee, Hov
