Jay-Z is set to hold a charitable event with a cinema-inspired theme.

The Brooklyn rapper has planned to invite a select group of A-list celebrities to a Casino Royale, 007-themed party on Sept. 30 with the goal of raising funds for REFORM Alliance. Per Page Six, the blackjack bash will take place in Atlantic City, N.J., at the Ocean Casino resort, with a $1 million pot.

The intimate guest list of 300 people is rumored to include Beyoncé, Travis Scott, Megan Thee Stallion, Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian, and more. Comedian Kevin Hart is named as the event’s emcee.

REFORM Alliance

“It was Jay’s idea to make a really small, incredibly exclusive event with the best people in the world,” a source with knowledge of the affair shared with Page Six.

According to the outlet, 10 to 15 helicopters will fly guests back and forth from New York City for the star-studded affair. Attendees trying their luck on the blackjack table will reportedly pay $100,000 as a buy-in, while non-players will pay $50,000.

REFORM Alliance was founded in January 2019 after Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill was sentenced to a maximum of four years behind bars after being arrested for popping wheelies on a dirt bike, which violated the terms of his probation. The #FreeMeek movement resulted in his release on bail and eventually his freedom. Now, the organization focuses on making sure the vast majority of people trapped in the system have access to the same resources as the Dreams And Nightmares performer.
