Oh, so it's alright for Beyonce to parade her skimps in front of thousands, but those Victoria's Secrets tramps better not do the same in front of her husband...

Did Jay-Z find himself in hot-water with the missus after being snapped next to a knicker-flasher at P Diddy's party last week? Whatever the case, it looks like Beyonce's the one wearing the pants in their relationship (any brand of pants but Victoria's Secrets)...

According to reports, although Jay-Z attended the Victoria Secret's fashion last week, he wouldn't pose with any of the models or even walk down the red carpet, with an insider telling the New York Post:

"Victoria's Secret begged, but Jay-Z refused. He explained it was out of respect for Beyonce."

"At M2 [the venue of the after party], he was given a private booth so he could keep his distance from models including Alessandra Ambrosio, Selita Ebanks, Chanel Iman, Miranda Kerr and Heidi Klum."

In fairness, the 6ft 3" rapper was probably worried he'd crush the twiglets - either that or he was just trying to avoid the vommy breath.
