    Harvey Weinstein had the entertainment at his pre-Oscars party re-started because Jay Z and Beyoncé arrived late

    The couple - who have five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and are expecting twins together - made a surprise appearance at the movie mogul's lavish bash at the Montage Beverly Hills on Saturday (25.02.17), but when they got there, Cynthia Erivo, Chris Jackson and Corbin Bleu were already in the middle of their 'In the Heights' medley.


    According to the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column, Harvey urged the singers - who had been introduced by the show's creator Lin-Manuel Miranda - to stay on stage and perform "the first five minutes" again, much to the delight of the star-studded crowd.

    Harvey poked fun at the rap mogul's lateness, but added: "He's got a good reason if you look at his wife."

    And Jay will have been keen to hear the performance as The Weinstein Company are making a film of 'In the Heights', and Harvey revealed on stage at the party that the '99 Problems' hitmaker will be one of the producers on the movie musical.

    According to People magazine, Beyonce enjoyed the chocolate dessert being served at the party and was seen chatting with Harvey's wife, fashion designer Georgina Chapman, but she and her husband left the celebrations just 30 minutes after they had arrived.

    The party was held in honour of 'Lion', which has six Oscar nominations, and the movie's stars Dev Patel and Nicole Kidman were in attendance, alongside the likes of Matthew Morrison, Kelsey Grammer, Zac Posen, Salman Rushdie and Diane Warren.

    In addition, Nicole Scherzinger and 'Lion' composers Dustin O'Halloran and Volker Bertelmann, aka Hauscha, also performed at the bash.
