In 2002, Jay-Z and singer Beyoncé first collaborated on the song “03 Bonnie & Clyde” before the rapper went on to appear on Beyoncé’s hit “Crazy in Love” and “That’s How You Like It” from her debut album Dangerously in Love. Then, on her sophomore album, B’Day, he featured on the hit tracks “Déjà Vu” and “Upgrade U”. Beyoncé memorably imitated Jay’s appearance in the video for the latter song. Meanwhile, they kept a low profile during this time despite several suggestions that they were in a relationship. The couple revealed nothing until they were officially married on April 4, 2008. They reside in an $88 million home in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles and have continued their tradition of avoiding discussing their relationship in the media.
Bey and Jay were listed as the most powerful couple in Time magazine’s 100 most influential people of 2006, and Forbes ranked them as Hollywood’s top-earning couple, with a combined total of $162 million, in 2009. They reached the top of the list the following year, with a total of $122 million between June 2008 and June 2009. As of 2019, they are jointly worth $1.4 billion, according to Forbes. A financially capable addition to this list of celebrity power couples.
Together they have three kids; Blue Ivy (born in 2012) and twins Rumi and Sir (born in 2017).
#2 – Barack Obama and Michelle
In June 1989, Obama met Michelle Robinson when he was a summer associate at the Chicago law firm of Sidley Austin. She was assigned for three months as his adviser at the firm, and she later joined him at several group social functions but turned down his initial requests to date. They began dating later that summer, became engaged in 1991, and were married on October 3, 1992.
Besides being past President and the First Lady of the United States of America, the couple is one of the most popular on earth, with many looking up to how they lead their life. Known to the media as The Obamas, they have several TV and book deals.

In 1997, Beckham started dating Victoria after she attended a Manchester United match. She used to be known as “Posh Spice” of the pop music group Spice Girls, a top pop group at the time. Meanwhile, Beckham and his team were enjoying great success during the same period. Therefore, it made sense that their relationship instantly got a great deal of media attention. They were dubbed “Posh and Becks” by the media and arguably started the trend of couple nicknames. David Beckham proposed to her in January 1998 in a restaurant in Cheshunt, England.
On 4 July 1999, they married at Luttrellstown Castle in Ireland. Beckham’s teammate Gary Neville was the best man, and they employed 437 staff for the wedding reception, estimated to have cost £500,000. Shortly after his wedding, he and Victoria bought a country house set on 24 acres (10 hectares) in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, which the media nicknamed “Beckingham Palace”. The Beckhams were paid $13.7 million in 2007 to launch his fragrance line in the United States. They own several businesses together and one of the richest celebrity power couples ever.
