ATLANTIC CITY — Jay-Z has performed in Atlantic City before, and so has his wife, Beyoncé (whose all-girl band’s saxophonist, Tia Fuller, performed at Kennedy Plaza on the Boardwalk as part of the Chicken Bone Beach Jazz on the Beach summer concert series last Thursday, Aug. 11). In fact, Jay and Beyoncé appeared together at both the groundbreaking of Jay-Z’s Atlantic City 40/40 Club, at the Oct. 25, 2005, grand opening bash, and at the one-year anniversary party (among the times that the pair has been seen together in A.C. publicly, at least. Jay-Z and his other partner, Kanye West — the two team up on the newly released Watch the Throne album — will appear in Atlantic City in November. Nov. 19, to be exact, at Boardwalk Hall. Boardwalk Hall was the site of another huge concert — the recent Femme Fatale tour stop, Aug. 6, featuring Britney Spears and Nicki Minaj.

Lady Gaga herself was in the audience at the Britney concert (see photo at left) and reports are swirling on the Internet that the two pop divas discussed doing a song together as they hung out in Atlantic City.
