Jay-Z and Cold play's Chris Martin
watch Arsenal play against Manchester United. The rap mogul and Cold Play lead
singer were at Emirates Stadium Sunday to
watch their beloved Arsenal play out a 1-1 draw with Manchester
United.
These two music star who happen to share an
unlikely friendship also have one more thing in common, and that is their love
for the Gunners.
For Jay-Z, his allegiance to the north London Club was borne
out of admiration for former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry who now plays for the New York Red
Bulls. Jay-Z also happens to think Arsenal plays beautifully as he explained in
an interview in 2010, he said-"I love all sports, but what I really love
is when people play sport in a beautiful way, and that's one thing Arsenal do
for sure."
Although Arsenal are by no means guaranteed to qualify for the Champions
League this year, with the Gunners currently occupying fourth spot, one point
behind Chelsea and two ahead of Tottenham, Jay-Z hinted that he may be interested in investing in the
team in the future. The 10-time Grammy award winner said-
"I don't know a lot about the business of soccer, but in the future
if the right opportunity presented itself, then who knows?
"I am a businessman, and I will always look at an opportunity, and
if it feels right, great."
