You’ll Probably Be Surprised By These Unlikely Celebrity Friendships

Some friendships in Hollywood are truly bizarre. What compels a rapper to befriend a homemaker? Or an athlete to hang out with the leader of North Korea? Stars such as Martha Stewart and Dennis Rodman have made connections with other famous and powerful people. You can’t help but wonder what they all talk about behind closed doors!

Gwyneth Paltrow met Beyoncé several years ago. Paltrow revealed to Ellen DeGeneres in 2010 she met the singer and her husband Jay-Z at a charity event in New York City. She told Howard Stern in 2015: “The greatest perk of being their friend, is that I have a relationship with people who are also—who have similar…I mean, obviously I’m not as famous or successful as they are.”

Paltrow was recently accused of being “Becky with the good hair” from one of Beyoncé’s songs and having an affair with Jay-Z. Paltrow denied it, commenting on Instagram: “WHAT??? Of course not, that is ABSURD. Good Lord.”
