Devin Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 Mr. and Mrs. Carter for me, but they are one of several iconic celeb couples.

The iconic duo of Bey and Jay z is in the brand itself. The fact that someone as big as Beyoncé married someone as influential as Jay z is what made it iconic . They are the most powerful/influential couple in the music industry. people actually respect them as a couple unlike the others that are just tabloid sensation. They both have achieved so much individually and together that it just doesn’t get better than that. Wife is the most awarded artist of all time by the Grammy and one of the legends of the 21st century , husband is one of the greatest rappers of all time. They are a billionaire couple They made gems like crazy in love , drunk in love, deja vu, etc together. On the run tour 2 grossed over 200 million dollars . They actually have real achievements together not just some cheesy tabloid dramas that you guys deem as iconic. But it's Beyonce who's more famous of the two. No one cares for Jay Z anymore when's the last time he's had a solo tour?
JustHoran Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 Yes. Justin even launched his solo career thanks to the end of that relationship and milked it for a hit. 1
JustHoran Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 People saying Beyonce and Jay-Z? No one cared about Beyonce and Jay-Z as a couple 1 3

Richie.Valdez Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 I’ll pray for the ones saying Beyoncé and her cheating husband. 1
Rev8 Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 One of, not the One : -Sonny and Cher or Tina and Ike are the most iconic ones -Jelena is also pretty popular..but wouldn't say more so than Britney/Justin (only fans who werent alive or were barely alive during that time - would say they were bigger) they are equal at most -For the Bey-Z discourse...they have big numbers together..but they aren't as global as some of the mentions they are mostly cared about in the States...everywhere else? they just care about Beyonce..
toxicgenie Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 Justin Britney for the 2000s. Justin Selena for the 2010s. nobody finds Jay attractive so they can't be the most iconic. 1 2
Trash Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) They didn't last long enough. Sonny and Cher Bey and Jay Brangelina Jelena Oprah and Gail Are more iconic. Edit: Sorry, didn't read the whole thread title and thought this woulkd be about pop culture and not just pop music Edited July 16, 2023 by Trash
McNulty Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 One of, yes. 00's Brit and Justin 10's Selena and Justin 1

GoodGuyGoneGhetto Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) 3 hours ago, Josh said: When the world and the media found out they had broken up you couldn't escape it. They were always talked about. Everytime and Cry Me a River were some of the biggest events of pop music The most iconic couple in pop music? No. Not when Sonny and Cher, Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love have all existed, preceding them. Of the 21st century, particularly in the first half of the 2000’s, they certainly generated a lot of tabloid interest, especially amongst their younger fans, but that eventually faded, fast. Whenever their names are tied together in conversation today, it’s through a pure controversial, unfavourable narrative. Since then, however, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have far surpassed them in cultural magnitude and impact and possibly even a few others. Edited July 16, 2023 by GoodGuyGoneGhetto
brazil Posted July 16, 2023 Posted July 16, 2023 Were Selena and Justin really iconic? I dont even recall them as a couple at all.
glacier76 Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 Couples not yet mentioned are June Carter and Johnny Cash, Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham, Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain, Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, and heck, during that specific time, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lechay.

Geovane. Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 no one remembers this except for britney stans 3 1
StarsAllAligned Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 Of all time? No but they’re one of them, especially for millennials/2000s.

He literally closed out the central library in Brooklyn, and the ENTIRE library is currently THE BOOK OF HOV exhibit chronicling his entire career, y'all have no idea what you're talking about. Objectively Jay Z has the greatest career in Hip Hop history and people absolutely care for him, they were just saying he had verse of the year last year. The idea that Jay Z is some nobody is the greatest piece of fan fiction in Pop music circles. 5
