At least ten top performers will take the stage at Jay-Z’s all-star blackjack party for his Reform Alliance this weekend — and it won’t be any ordinary stage. Travis Scott, DJ Khaled, Meek Mill, and others are said to be performing on customized casino gaming tables custom-made by the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, NJ, for the event on September 30. ASAP Rocky and Jack Harlow have been added to the exclusive, private gathering of only 200 VIP attendees.
Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian, Tom Brady, Emily Ratajkowski, Megan Thee Stallion, and the Reform Alliance board — which includes Fanatics billionaire Michael Rubin and Patriots owner Robert Kraft — have already been confirmed as attendees.
Said an Atlantic City insider, “The Ocean casino’s building special tables to hold performances on them while people are playing.”
Kardashian and her sister, Kourtney Kardashian, will fly into town from Paris Fashion Week for the black-tie event. Kim has famously been studying to become a lawyer, and Reform strives to modify probation and parole regulations, having helped pass multiple bills in 11 states while opening a pathway for over 700,000 people who have been wrongfully imprisoned.
Jay-Z conceived of Reform Alliance’s inaugural fundraising event as a fun party and card tournament with a 007 theme and a $1 million jackpot. The seven-figure jackpot is being provided by the casino, and the event is expected to raise $20 million including a $100,000 buy-in per player to get into the game, and $50,000 for other guests. We hear that VIPs will travel via helicopters that are being donated for the event, with 10 choppers going back and forth from NYC.
The Reform board also includes Nets co-owner Clara Wu Tsai, Robert Smith, Michael Novogratz, and Laura Arnold, and the party will also include NBA superstars, private equity players, hedge funders, and top CEOs.
