President of the United States Barack Obama is fighting for a
second term in the White House, but luckily he's got celebrity star
power to call on.
Jay-Z and Beyonce are hosting a
lavish fundraising party for the President on Tuesday night in New York
at the rapper's 40/40 Club.
While it will be an intimate shindig, it certainly won't be a toned down affair.

According to The New York Post, a ticket for the hottest event of the night is costing a staggering $40,000 (£24,000).
A representative for the nightclub told the newspaper that details of the party are 'under lock and key'.

It's
not known how many people will be attending. The New York Post claimed
that around 100 people will party with the President, while Jay Z hinted
on his Twitter page: 'Guest list: Obama plus 40.'
The 40/40 Club has undergone a $10million (£6million) renovation, with the main talking point a bespoke Armand de Brignac Gold Champagne Tower.
The club rep added: 'It’s floor-to-ceiling gold bottles in the entire space. It’s beautiful — breathtaking.'

It's
believed it will be Obama's last stop in his New York campaign before
November's election, and it's apt that he is spending time with the
hip-hop couple.
Last month, he revealed that he's a huge fan of their music, and he regularly listens to them on his iPod.

He also added that he turns to a Beyonce track during his fitness sessions.
He told the hosts of Albuquerque’s
KOB-FM: 'I will say right now that if I'm really trying to get my heart
rate up, Crazy In Love is a pretty good song to work out to.'

Rival: Obama is up against Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney
However,
while it's sure to be a night to remember for those who are lucky
enough to attend, the party has angered his Republican rivals.
New York Republican Party Chairman Ed Cox said in a statement: 'America needs a President more interested in the status of our allies abroad and our unemployed at home than in partying with celebrities: America needs Mitt Romney in the White House.'
