While most of Hollywood was out getting ready for, and later celebrating, the 2025 Emmys, two celebrities went to do something else instead: at the REFORM Alliance Casino Night and Gala. While we know lovebirds Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden were in attendance, so were two other high-profile couples: Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, as well as Jay-Z and Beyoncé. However, one major detail about the night has Beyoncé fans seriously split.
It all started with a post on X, the app formerly known as Twitter, which shared a photo from the event, seemingly showing that Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kushner, and Trump were all at the same table. They shared the photo with the caption reading, “Beyoncé, Jay-Z & Ivanka Trump last night in Atlantic City (Sept. 14th) 🤎” and you can see the post HERE!

Many people immediately called out this photo, talking about how Beyoncé and Jay-Z shouldn’t associate with the Trumps. Many fans said things like “at dinner with the kushners?” and “This is essentially wraps up what her entire Cowboy Carter era was.😭😭 Sis was touting that flag to sit at tables with MAGA conservatives but telling her diahard stans it about ‘reclaiming America.’” This post refers to her America-centric country album, Cowboy Carter.

However, many fans came to her defense, discussing assigned seating, and one fan even stated, “Billboard confirmed that Beyoncé and Jay-Z were sitting alone in the middle of the banquet hall at the REFORM Alliance Casino Night and Gala.”
(This is true, Billboard did claim “Jay-Z… sat sequestered alongside his wife Beyoncé in the middle of the banquet hall.”)
But fans quickly posted more photos of the night, showing the four of them all at table 18. It’s unclear if that was their assigned seating or if they sat there briefly to chat.
Either way, fans couldn’t be more split on what happened that night.
