Voicing support for same-sex marriage, Who Gon Stop Me rapper Jay Z has saidthat everyone has the right to choose his or her own partner. The singer, who is happily married to popsensation Beyonce Knowles, told Us magazine that every couple, gay and straight, should be allowedto marry whom so ever they want to. "I have always thought of it as something that is still holding thecountry back. What people do in their own homes is their business, and you can choose to love whoeveryou love.
