Jay-Z and Beyoncé caused a buzz in Las Vegas over the weekend after making an unexpected appearance at the Formula 1 Grand Prix.

The powerhouse duo was seen taking in the high-energy race festivities while posing with several celebrities who were also on site for the global motorsport spectacle.

The Carters were photographed spending time with world champion Lewis Hamilton, Travis Scott, and Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, even sharing a moment with F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali during their visit. Beyoncé, who has been on a streak of headline-making public moments, stunned fans with her racing-themed look as she walked through the paddock beside Jay-Z.

Their trip to Las Vegas came less than a day after Beyoncé was spotted in New Jersey showing support for Kelly Rowland at The Boy Is Mine Tour, alongside her sister Solange and legendary singer Patti LaBelle.

And the Carters' support for their peers didn't stop there. A week before the F1 event, Beyoncé and Jay-Z were also seen at the Los Angeles stop of Brandy and Monica's The Boy Is Mine Tour, appearing briefly in the official recap video from the show. They weren't the only stars in the building as Rihanna, Jenifer Lewis, and Queen Latifah were also in attendance to watch the R&B icons perform.

The LA show featured a lineup of major guest appearances, including Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, LL Cool J, Mario, and O.T. Genasis, before Brandy and Monica took the stage to perform classics like "Don't Take It Personal," "I Wanna Be Down," and their timeless duet "The Boy Is Mine."
