Beyonce celebrates birthday with pal PaltrowBeyonce has been enjoying her 30th birthday with style and a few good friends. The mommy-to-be arrived in Venice, Italy over the weekend to celebrate her big 3-0 with husband Jay-Z, 41. The two were spotted having dinner at a well-known hotspot in the city on Sunday, reports People. According to The Daily Mail, Jay and Beyonce boarded a luxury yacht while overseas, and the couple's pal Gwyneth Paltrow joined in the fun. Herself a mom of two, Paltrow was in town to promote her film "Contagion" at the Venice Film Festival. The guest list didn't end there, however: Singer Erykah Badu was on deck as well.
Gwyn and B (as we imagine their pet names for each other might be) have been BFFs for a while and the pair socialize quite a bit together along with their spouses (Paltrow is married to Coldplay front man Chris Martin.) Beyonce recently told Harper's Bazaar that she aspires to be like her Oscar-winning friend. "You go to her house and she makes you feel like you never want to go home," Beyonce said. "She is what I strive to be one day." The "Love On Top" songstress announced her pregnancy at the MTV Video Music Awards in late August - a surprise that she hinted at during her interview with Piers Morgan in June. "I always said I'd have a baby at 30," Beyonce said at the time. "I'm 29. But I also said I was going to retire at 30. I'm not retiring."

its comments above with asinine people that keep racism going~~do those talking trash know either of these two celebritys personally??? hell no....i laugh at this kinda crap. you obviously have nothing better to do than assume and hate....pat yourself on the back....and look in the mirror and judge yourself.
"Gynn and B?" shheeeeesshhhh, that made my sweet cheeks tighten up! ((shudder))
Paltrow's a washed up ugly snob that just like others in the past wants to be able to I partied with rappers.
The mere fact that Beyonce is friends with Gwyneth Paltrow tells me that Beyonce is probably unpleasant.
This kid is already more famous than that water headed Palin kid.
Happy birthday beyonce
You're an 'A'lister you don't look to anybody but yourself Beyonce.
I already wish they'd shut up about Beyonce's kid.
Happy Birthday Beyonce!!

How did they become BFFs? Just wondering...
Beyonce aspire to be like Ruby Dee or Valerie Simpson or even Marilyn Mcoo just three of many strong beautiful black females that held down careers and marriages for many decades,without any acknowledgment from Hollywood.
It should be illegal for me to love her as much as I do. LOL
Happy Birthday, B! (I'm the 3rd BFF, she and Gwen just don't know it LOL)
@Esh, It is, its called stalking you weirdo.
And happy birthday to Beyonce.
