Beyoncé really is above it all

-

AT Jay-Z’s starry party in Atlantic City over the weekend, Beyoncé was on the scene — but stayed in a luxe penthouse at the Ocean Casino Resort rather than attend the event downstairs, we hear.

Multiple sources tell us that Queen Bey helicopter­ed to the event with her husband. But instead of coming down to the charity gala via private elevator with the rest of the stars, she spent the evening holed up in the penthouse.

Sources tell us that Beyoncé took the night to herself for a good reason: The next day, she jetted off to Kansas City, Mo., to close out her 56stop “Renaissanc­e” world tour. Known as a particular­ly meticulous performer, she’s also releasing a concert film of this tour, we reported. Her rep did not get back to us.

While the “Single Ladies” singer prepped for her big night, Jay expertly worked the room below at the fund-raiser for Reform Alliance, the nonprofit he founded in 2019 with Meek Mill, Michael Rubin, Robert Kraft and others. The event — featuring a high-end blackjack tournament, a dinner and an auction — took in more than $24 million, shattering its goal of $20 million.

Guests included Kim Kardashian, who came in from Paris fashion week for the event, and Tom Brady, who stayed overnight at the New Jersey hotel.

At the auction portion of the event, Brady and Kardashian each bid $2 million on a lot of works by George Condo — with Brady winning the bid and the artist agreeing to create another work for Kardashian as a commission.

Kevin Hart emceed the bash and joked that even he couldn’t afford to bid on the luxe lots after not working due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. “I wish the strike wasn’t happening! I would’ve bought all this s--t,” he told the crowd. “My [finances] are all wrapped up.”

Matthew McConaughe­y, Tiffany Haddish, Dez Bryant, Jack Harlow, Alex Rodriguez, Bill Gates’ daughter Phoebe Gates and more also attended.
