Never understood the Jay-Z/Beyonce thing but now I do. What a funny guy. Love that when he walks away he says 'hope you know I'm just taking the piss'. Bless him.
Kay G just wanting to know, is your point of view sexist. I mean is it fair to assume she had no running to do during their courtship or ypu feel it was all down to him......just asking giving our present social political confusion ....🤔
He's very right about the reason most rap shows suck. Somebody rapping over a prerecorded track sounds terrible on stage, especially because the vocals usually end up drowned up by the instrumental track, and the vocals are the most important part. Every half-way successful rapper should get a backing band...You don't have to be Jay Z... ordinary rock bands can afford it and so can you.
this is amazing. its a master class on how to answer or not answer questions, maintain comedic value, work an audience and control an interview. Jay is awe inspiring.
I don't understand why people think their marriage was business planned If it was then why did they keep their marriage a secret for quite a long time?
Jay Z is good, he sold so many albums, a master of Double/Triple entendre, married to a successful beautiful woman, so he must actually be good right, lets give credit where it is due folks. On a different note, how lovely does Charlotte Church looks right
At the end Jay Z walks off and explains to Jonathan not to take offence by the fat jokes, that he wasn't trying to take the piss..awww how kind was Jay to make sure he never hurt Johnathan's feelings..even though it was clear Ross was taking it as a joke
Thanks a million for putting this video up, I appreciate it. Not to be cheeky but if you have the video for his other interview on the show, could u upload that too? :P Didn't expect him to be so witty/funny
i can explain the whole thing to you.. you got a minute?'' jay go ahead'' ross ''it takes a second'' jay people dont know how witty that was right there..
hahahah i love how he tried to make the last remark better at the end as he's walking off. "people do say great things about you" lol he's such a nice guy
jayz is hilarious hes very smart as well and sincere down to earth these iinterviews made me fall in love with him i already loved his music im irritated that people dont get his sarcastic humour now i know why beyonce loves him i think hes cute when he laughs and smiles aswell kudos jay z
wow, what a cool dude jay-z is... i was expecting him to be all hollywood millionaire gangsta, but he was just honest and straight up and real. To think he comes from about as far back as you can get, to be one of the most successful people on the planet, and he still doesn't have an attitude about himself - much respect
ha ha I love the way Jay is just so softly spoken and calm making Ross look like a chump. JR: "Do you know that song" .... Jay-Z(shakes head): No. Dig the specs too !
@STATUSthesleepers he says "I wasn't taking the piss" about when he says "people say great things about you" to Jonathan Ross, meaning he was being sincere, about people saying great things about Ross.
"the feeling of being broke ever again is a great motivator" Damn right J
actually i think Jay is brilliant but damn i hated this quote
Never understood the Jay-Z/Beyonce thing but now I do. What a funny guy. Love that when he walks away he says 'hope you know I'm just taking the piss'. Bless him.
Fucking hell, do you want to also copy my youtube account also !
Ineffable Gump erm what?
Kay G cook the man sum fuckin eggs bitch!
He didnt say that. He said "I wasnt taking the piss, people say great things about you".
Kay G just wanting to know, is your point of view sexist. I mean is it fair to assume she had no running to do during their courtship or ypu feel it was all down to him......just asking giving our present social political confusion ....🤔
"You outta line, brotha". LMBO
Love the respect... "Ms. Beyonce Knowles is shooting a movie right now..."
The respect didn't last long tho did it?
I know this was YEARS ago but I still liked it
Man, the fucking charisma and humour oozing out of jay... give that man a biscuit!
He's very right about the reason most rap shows suck. Somebody rapping over a prerecorded track sounds terrible on stage, especially because the vocals usually end up drowned up by the instrumental track, and the vocals are the most important part.

He said taking the piss, never heard somebody from the U.S say that.
I never thought they didn't say that
well apart from him i really can't think of a time somebody has said that ?
"Be The Change You Want To See In The World." I know lots of people who say it. I don't know much who hasn't
well i do have Alzheimer's could be that.
Kage DC wow! thank you so much!
I can see why beyonce marry this guy, sharp and funny
Nigga got the whole world in his left nostril.
Yea you know this right??? 🤔🤔
this is amazing. its a master class on how to answer or not answer questions, maintain comedic value, work an audience and control an interview. Jay is awe inspiring.
The least awkward interview Jay Z had. Johnathon Ross is a genius.
Imagine being in the same room as Will Smith and Jay Z at the same time so much greatness
Jay-Z funny, smart and after all the talk... even handsome! :D :D
ikr 😂
Yes, he looks great here.just like anyone good and bad days.
I love Jay-Z's dry sense of humor!
I actually enjoyed this interview. Jay Z is actually very funny 8->
DimpleEyes He is more relaxed over seas it seems than at home
this is of the most funniest interviewer in the game
He seems really self conscious, i like that though because it suggests he's humble
JayZ is so amazing n funny like his wife
'i wasnt taking the piss people do say great things about you' looool despite the millions he is very human
i almost died when he said "well ricky said"
I don't understand why people think their marriage was business planned
If it was then why did they keep their marriage a secret for quite a long time?
Or the fact Jay Z avoids talking about it like the plague lol "I like this set."
eureka0521 Yeah if it was a publicity stunt they would talk about it all the time... some people are just idiots
He tries his best to not talk about beyonce in all his interviews
He's brilliant! So funny very intelligent!
Jay z is so funny dear god
I did not expect jay-z to be such a cool guy. This was a brill interview, thanks for the upload!
I think I am in love with jay z 😍😍😍😍
Jay-z is hilairious "this is very poetic get ready"
I like the fact that he respects his family and keeps it private.. wish every celebrity will learn from him....
Observe how well JayZ holds himself in an interview, the guy is a mastermind..
Jay Z is good, he sold so many albums, a master of Double/Triple entendre, married to a successful beautiful woman, so he must actually be good right, lets give credit where it is due folks. On a different note, how lovely does Charlotte Church looks right
At the end Jay Z walks off and explains to Jonathan not to take offence by the fat jokes, that he wasn't trying to take the piss..awww how kind was Jay to make sure he never hurt Johnathan's feelings..even though it was clear Ross was taking it as a joke
"people really do say great things about you, i wasnt taking the piss"
Im into art now loool this interview was great first time i seen it on telly had to check it out again. HOV
my dude. He said ''you got a MINUTE?'' and then he said ''it takes a SECOND'' MINUTE AND SECOND. extremely witty
What a guy, naturally funny!!! He’d make a great actor, his comic timing, which is obviously natural, is amazing
jay z must have been extra happy that day cos he was funnier and more jovial than usual
He's probably not high.
The incomparable Jonathan Ross. So kind of Jay Z, to end on a compliment about his renowned charisma.
thanks very much. was the mumbling at the end
Thanks a million for putting this video up, I appreciate it. Not to be cheeky but if you have the video for his other interview on the show, could u upload that too? :P Didn't expect him to be so witty/funny
this brother is a boss
Jonathan: you have a wife now
Jay: i like this set. its like art. im into art now.
hhahahahh
He cringed on the DMX COMMENT
Very smart guy in conversation, particularly given he's American
i can explain the whole thing to you.. you got a minute?'' jay
go ahead'' ross
''it takes a second'' jay
people dont know how witty that was right there..
As he left you heard jay Z say 'takin the piss'
thats great most yanks r like 'wtf is takin the piss'
good man embracin the culture that accepted him
& where has this interview been all my life?!? :D
I really loved Jay in this interview
Hov is a great interview. Funny. I like watching his interviews almost as much as listening to his music.
:-D perfect interview.
''got a MINUTE?''
''it takes a SECOND''
Jay is so funny and charismatic who knew... the best interview I've ever watched I lol.
i watched because i was curious, not because Toby liked it and the link brought me here.
hahahah i love how he tried to make the last remark better at the end as he's walking off. "people do say great things about you" lol he's such a nice guy
4:30 he dodged the question so fast lol smart guy
He's so adorable when he told the piano to cut ;) omfg i almost ccried
omg Toby. You were doing the same thing as me...watching Jonathan Ross shows. At least I think you were...
Aint no one in America fucking with johnathon Ross' interview game
"I wasn't taking the piss" (says at the end) love it!!!
This was awesome, both gents were funny:)
They are fascinating together! i love Jay Z interviews hes funny
great interview
This was a great episode of JR I love Jay-Z and Will Smith!!
he said: ''you got a MINUTE?'' then he said: ''it takes a SECOND..''
So cool what he said at the end, great moment.
his face at 5:47 after he says "i've admired her from afar" is amazing lol
you see how Jay Z changes the subject as soon as Jonathon Ross mentions beyonce.
Love it when he says brother. It's like "bwathaah"
he's incredibly sincere, what a great artist.
jayz is hilarious
hes very smart as well and sincere down to earth
these iinterviews made me fall in love with him i already loved his music
im irritated that people dont get his sarcastic humour
now i know why beyonce loves him i think hes cute when he laughs and smiles aswell
kudos jay z
jay z is an intelligent and business smart individual and is very funny.. people should take the time to actually realize that.
Love him
Let’s give Jonathan Ross props, he’s a genius and a legendary TV host
Aww, I love what he said at the end :P
i like how he skips the question 'Your a happily married man now' 4:30
LOVE the bit where he says right at the end 'i wasnt taking the piss'... jay z the dude, much respect
agreed very enjoyable to watch.
he was being genuine when he said "people say great things about you" hear him as he walks he was like "im not takin the piss like"
the was he says at the end "I wasn't taking the piss, they really say great things about you!"
jonathan ross is my hero, love that guy so much
its great to have a young black representing urban life with class
jay z is a very quick thinker, in which he merges the conversation in to art.. i respect him a bit more after this interview
Love his laugh so much.
i love jay zz... he soo cooll bless himm.. =] soo funny never thought he'd b like tht..
6:20 *awkward pause* "dudnt work as good as tha blah blah blah" "you know what im sayin?" i woulda died lool
we need this show back john is the best
wow, what a cool dude jay-z is... i was expecting him to be all hollywood millionaire gangsta, but he was just honest and straight up and real. To think he comes from about as far back as you can get, to be one of the most successful people on the planet, and he still doesn't have an attitude about himself - much respect
who said we needed to watch it? could it just possibly have interested us when we saw the link?
Only thing sharper than his wit - his flow
he apologies at the end haha!
His personality is soo attractive 😍
LOL that 'okay' @ 3:59 had me in stiches
what does Jonathan say right at the end when Jay Z walks away?
I love this
Love how he avoided the "happily married life" question?
ha ha I love the way Jay is just so softly spoken and calm making Ross look like a chump. JR: "Do you know that song" .... Jay-Z(shakes head): No. Dig the specs too !
whats the name of these glasses?
good interview Jay z is a great guy
Having talent, intelligence, and knowledge makes you attractive and beautiful.
@JMM5222 In part 1 he was talking about Ricky Gervais telling him about Jonathan's weight
@STATUSthesleepers he says "I wasn't taking the piss" about when he says "people say great things about you" to Jonathan Ross, meaning he was being sincere, about people saying great things about Ross.
