The knowledge that Jay-Z is married to Beyonce may be trivial to you, but it’s no longer trivial to a certain unnamed 48-year-old, now in reportedly good condition in a hospital outside Cleveland; and it’s certainly not at all trivial to one Ronald Deaver, 31, who was compelled to stab the older man for not knowing this fact. Deaver has been charged with felonious assault, and if you ask me, both men lucked out. I mean, just imagine if the older man did know that Jay-Z is married—he may, in that circumstance, also know that Jay-Z’s been rumored to behave as if he himself doesn’t know. And he might have mentioned as much. And this story would not be about a mere assault.
