Beyonce & Jay Z Go Vegan for 22 Days, Starting Today!

Beyonce and her husband Jay Z are going vegan for 22 days, starting today (December 3)!

“On December 3rd, one day before my 44th birthday I will embark on a 22 Days challenge to go completely vegan, or as I prefer to call it, plant-based!! This all began a few months back when a good friend and vegan challenged me to embrace a ‘plant-based breakfast’ everyday,” the 43-year-old rapper wrote on his website.

He added, “There’s something spiritual to me about it being my 44th birthday and the serendipity behind the number of days in this challenge; 22 (2+2=4) coupled with the fact that the challenge ends on Christmas day…It just feels right!”

The couple started off today eating lunch at vegan restaurant Real Food Daily in West Hollywood.

Good luck Beyonce and Jay Z!
