JAY-Z Rocked Paris Fashion Week During Pharrell Williams’ LV Show
JAY-Z nearly took over Pharrell Williams' debut Louis Vuitton show performing a number of classics, including, fittingly enough, "Niggas in Paris."
JAY-Z gave the Paris Fashion Week crowd a taste of his classics at Pharrell Williams Louis Vuitton debut on Tuesday (June 20). The Brooklyn rap giant, who arrived at the event hand-in-hand with wife Beyoncé, nearly took over the festivities, performing “Frontin’” and “I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)” with Williams on the runway.

Later, while backed by his longtime music engineer and record producer Young Guru, Hov performed “Niggas in Paris” (minus Kanye West). “We got one night only to do this — no regrets,” said Hov, according to WWD.
As he began the song, the Roc Nation founder noticed that a woman in the crowd wasn’t moving and started the Watch the Thronesingle from the top. “This one girl is not moving. Are you ready now? Are you with me? Everybody understand the rules?” he jokingly asked.
