After touring with U2 in Australia, Jay-Z returned back home to New York for the holidays. He caught up with his friend, music executive Steve Stoute, and chef of Italian restaurant Nello’s at Hermes on Christmas Eve. The hip-hop mogul will ring in 2011 by performing at an invite-only concert with his friend Chris Martin and Coldplay at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve. He was reportedly paid $1 million for the gig.
