Beyoncé exploded with rage after finding out that her husband, Jay-Z, keeps a cellphone that only sultry pop star Rihanna has the number for, Bang Showbiz reported. A source said: "Jay has several phones, one of which he keeps reserved for Rihanna, supposedly to discuss business interests."Jay-Z is the owner and founder of record label Roc Nation, and Rihanna is far and away the top-selling artist on its roster of talent.The source told Bang Showbiz: "It's obvious when she calls because he'll interrupt meetings, even walk away from the dinner table to speak to her."When Beyoncé discovered Rihanna has a hotline to her husband, she apparently went "livid".Rihanna and Beyoncé kept their distance at the launch of Jay-Z' s new streaming service, Tidal. But the source denied that Beyoncé was looking for a fight.The source told Grazia magazine: "Beyoncé is a peacekeeper by nature and the last thing she wants is to cause a fuss while the spotlight is on their new venture."But she feels increasingly frustrated that Jay refuses to accept that there is anything unorthodox about his friendship with Rihanna." ..
