Beyonce & Jay-Z Branded 'Socially Irresponsible' By Harry Belafonte


King of Calypso Harry Belafonte has branded Beyonce and Jay-Z two of the most socially irresponsible celebrities.
The power couple were named the world's highest paid couple this week by Forbes magazine, however, Belafonte says they aren't doing enough for society.
"I think one of the great abuses of this modern time is that we should have had such high-profile artists, powerful celebrities. But they have turned their back on social responsibility," Belafonte told the Hollywood Reporter.
"That goes for Jay-Z and BeyoncĂ©, for example. Give me Bruce Springsteen, and now you’re talking. I really think he is Black."
Bey and Jay reportedly took home an income of $78 million collectively in the year from May 2011.
Do you agree with Belafonte that Bey and Jay aren't using their power in the right places?
