Pop some bubbly for Jay Z, and make sure it's Ace of Spades.

In a press release, the Sovereign Brands company has announced it has sold the popular champagne to him. The release says, "We are proud to announce that Sovereign Brands, a New York-based wine and spirits company owned by the Berish family, has sold its interest in the Armand de Brignac ("Ace of Spades") Champagne brand to a new company led by the globally-renowned Shawn "Jay Z" Carter."  

A spokesperson for Sovereign tells the New York Times that the deal came about because Jay "became interested in owning the brand and made us an offer we simply couldn’t refuse.”

 So far, no word on the name of Jay's company.

The Quickies:

 So we're going to have to act like Ace of Spades is hot again?

It must be nice to say:  I really like this drink...think I'll buy THE COMPANY!!!

It does seem like Jay really likes Ace of Spades. 

Is it what you would order at a club if you were trying to ball out?
