Jay-Z & Beyoncé Selling Their New Orleans Home
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: James Devaney / Getty It looks like Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s time in the Crescent City is coming to an end, for now. The Hip-Hop power couple is reportedly selling their New Orleans home. It’s a mansion actually, and the same crib that unfortunately caught fire a few months ago. According to TMZ, Jay and Bey are asking for a cool $4,450,000 for the 13,292 square foot home that was built in 1925. All that money gets you 7-bedrooms and 8-bathrooms in what used to be a Presbyterian church. The home is in NOLA’s Historic Garden District, which makes for easy access to Canal St. and other NO destinations. In late July, someone set the home on fire, which led the authorities to consider it a case of arson, but no arrests have been made. It took over 20 firefighters ...

Later in the pre-taped sketch, Malek dons the same outfit worn by Squid Game players — a green and white track suit emblazoned with only a number — while standing amid creepy masked guards in a recreation of the show’s sleeping barracks set. “Weird cards, pink guards, locked us in a big room,” the actor sings. “Forty-five billion won, that’s a whole lot of money. At least I think it is… I’m confused by the currency.” By the end, Davidson wins the bloody games by killing off his friends, but he’s pulled back in after gambling away his winnings on a professional football game. “Gonna live my life better now, I’ve grown in so many ways,” Davidson, whose hair is dyed red at this point, croons. “Then one day I got bored, and I took all my money, and I bet it on the...
