A man apparently ended up at JAY-Z and Beyoncé's house as part of a friend's practical joke. According to the police blotter of the East Hampton Star, cops were called to the power couple's East Hampton Village mansion when a man tried to call up to the house using the driveway's talk box. 

He gave the name of his friend and was turned away, only to be found down the street when police arrived. The unnamed man said that his friend invited him and gave the Carters address as a prank. Bey and JAY were not home at the time and police officers escorted the man to the train station.

Officers were called to a house on Briar Patch Road on Saturday at about 12:30 a.m. after a stranger told security guards he had been invited to the house, which is owned by Beyoncé and Jay-Z. The man had pushed the talk button on the driveway keypad and said he was looking for someone, whose name was redacted from the report. He left the area, but police found him a few driveways away, using a photograph sent to them by the security guards. The man said a friend had invited him to the house and must have been playing a joke. Police escorted him to the East Hampton train station.

Beyoncé, Hov, and Blue Ivy have all been busy this year with all three appearing on Mrs. Carter's Lion King companion album The Gift. A song on that soundtrack allowed Jigga to reach the 100 career singles on the Hot 100 milestone, a feat previously pulled off by only three other rappers: Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, and Drake.
