Beyonc Celebrates Her 40th Birthday On Jeff Bezos' $500 Million Yacht
Beyoncé has been celebrating her birthday in luxury, as the singer was recently spotted on Jeff Bezos’ $500 million yacht.
Sharing with her 209 million Instagram followers, Beyoncé shared new photos of herself and husband Jay-Z this Friday aboard the famous yacht. In the images, Beyoncé dazzled in a sparkling green mini dress adorned with flowers, while Jay-Z matched in a tropical floral shirt.
Hollywood Life suggests that the couple’s eldest child, 9-year-old Blue Ivy, can be seen in the background of one of the images, though it’s unclear if their children were actually present on the yacht.
It was reported earlier this month the couple were vacationing in Italy on the Amazon founder’s yacht for Beyoncé's 40th birthday on September 4th. Paparazzi managed to take photos of Beyoncé and Jay-Z walking around Portofino, Entertainment Tonight reports. They were accompanied by the singer’s mom, Tina Knowles.
In honor of her birthday, Beyoncé also recently released a special selection of photos to her website alongside a handwritten note. In the message, she said women should celebrate getting older, and she expressed thankfulness for all of the opportunities she’s had in her life thus far.
Work was recently completed on Bezos’ super yacht, known only as Project 271. It was reported in May that Bezos had commissioned a 417-foot superyacht, valued at $500 million from Dutch manufacturer Oceanco. At the time, PEOPLE Magazine reported it would be completed in June.
Few details are known about the new super yacht, but it was in the works for a few years before the news became public. Forbes notes that the coronavirus pandemic delayed production temporarily. But now, it’s believed to be one of the biggest yachts in the world. At the very least, it’s the biggest liner to ever be manufactured in the Netherlands.
The outlet notes that the super yacht also reportedly comes with a smaller boat that’s specifically tasked with storing other assets – personal submarine, aircraft, cars, and other luxury items.
However, one super yacht isn’t enough for Bezos. He’s also the owner of another multi-million-dollar ship, The Flying Fox. Super Yachts reports that it was completed in 2019, and currently sits as the fourteenth biggest yacht in the world. The price of the boat has been estimated to be anywhere between $300 to 400 million USD.
Its features include a pool on the main deck, two-deck spa, sauna, gym, theatre, elevator, and two helipads, which can accommodate the largest helicopters currently available. Let’s just say, Bezos has a lot of room to accommodate many more celebrities aside from only Jay-Z and Beyoncé!
