Beyonce and Jay-Z hosting invite-only Oscars afterparty sends Internet into frenzy: 'White party 2.0'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Beyonce and Jay-Z are once again set to host one of Hollywood’s most exclusive post-Oscars celebrations.

The highly anticipated "Gold Party" will take place at the iconic Chateau Marmont immediately after the 97th Academy Awards on March 2, 2025, Variety reported.

Originally launched in 2018 to honor Mary J Blige, the invite-only gathering has since become a must-attend event for the industry’s elite. Over the years, stars like Rihanna, Adele, Reese Witherspoon, Natalie Portman, and Kylie Jenner have graced the lavish affair, which is known for its luxurious ambiance and strict no-press policy.

As news about Beyonce and Jay-Z hosting the exclusive event spread online, people took to X (formerly Twitter) and drew comparisons between the Gold Party and Sean "Diddy" Combs' infamous "white parties," particularly given the recent scrutiny surrounding the rapper's friendship with the couple.

One X user posted, "White party 2.0."

Another tweeted, "Oh we know what they will be doing."

One person joked about the rebranding of the event’s theme, "Noticed how they renamed white to gold."

Others took a more humorous approach, playfully pretending they had received an invite, "Carrying on diddy’s legacy." Another commented, "We all know what will happen at the after party."

"But like why? Neither of them are in movies," one person asked, while another wrote, "They do away with the Grammy’s brunch with Diddy lol now it’s Oscar’s lol."

Meanwhile, another A-list bash is also in the works. Reports from The Hollywood Reporter confirm that Madonna will be throwing her own invite-only Oscars afterparty at a private Beverly Hills residence on the same night.
