Jay-Z is now the owner of the worlds fastest road car, according to reports.

Beyonce Knowles has bought the rapper the £1.3million pound Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport for his 41st birthday, The Sun reports.

"Jay-Z has one of the most enviable collections of bling motors in the world - but even for him the Bugatti is special," a source told the paper

They added: "Obviously the money isn't a factor for Beyonce, but Jay will be touched that out of everything she could have bought him, she chose something he'll treasure for years. He's in for the ride of his life."

The pair became the highest-earning couple in music last year with an income of £68 million.

Meanwhile, Jay-Z’s book ‘Decoded’ has reached number three on the New York Times best seller list.
